There is no they. by Zer0Kelvin 2013-05-10T16:33:00
@Tyro Glad you enjoyed the game! Sorry about the crash, I didn't have any on either of the computers I tested, but they were both Windows 7 (32 & 64). What are the specs on your computer?

@gmaker Thanks for playing!
@CherryNukaCola Yep. I'm glad some people 'got' what I was going for. It was hard coming up for something for minimalism and I didn't want to miss another LD... I've not really done anything like this and was kinda hesitant going into 'art game' territory but I thought it fit the theme. I'm glad you liked it!
@EdoMiyamoto Thanks for playing!
@Sylvain.p I'm glad you liked it! It's kind of based on a the idea of sides and tribes and the futility of the 'other'.
I found that little bug after I submitted it. I put the quitting code in the main game but forgot to link it to the menu. So if you go back into a game, you can hit <Esc> (twice) to quit. To quit from the menu, you have to hit <Alt/F4>. I can fix it after voting is over I guess?
@bvanschooten I'm glad you got something out of it, thanks for playing!
BTW, I just discovered all these comments :D
See all the cats! :D
Great stuff!
I love the flat 3D graphics! Got to the part with the rotating fire walls :)
I got stuck after the first place where I used a demolition guy to smash a rock. After that I couldn't seem to get through...
Great game idea!
Nice, short and fun! Great graphic look. Simple dashing mechanic explored in a lot of interesting ways in just a few screens. Thumbs up!
Love the concept! I would like to see this expanded :) I never could get all three guys to do something, they mostly did nothing when it was their turn. It seemed to take too many clicks to put in a move, like Move could have been reduced to just click guy and then direction. A better control scheme would really improve this. Something like this?:
Move: Click robber, drag to destination
Shoot: Click gun, drag to target
Rob: Why wouldn't you rob? Maybe rob when touching victim?
Hostage: Click rope, click or drag to target person (you would need to add a rope icon on waist).
Cover: Not sure what this is for?
I played for a little while, some guys came shooting at me, and a few seconds later it just closed itself :/
Anyway, love what you've got so far! :D
Couldn't seem to rub out the city. Kept dying in the car driving part. I went to the hospital over and over and over, heheh
Yeah, I little pause after you die before you respawn would be a good addition :)
Just uploaded a new version with a little pause after you die :)
New version (23), minor bug fix to stop making a block when reborn when the player presses the key while dead.
New version (24), win screen screenshots now working correctly :)
Thanks guys! Glad you liked it! :)
@JHollands, did you extract the entire archive before running it? What OS are you running on it? Win XP, Vista, 7, 8?
Thanks for all the positive comments! Glad people are liking this :D
@Kragnir, by an hour passed, do you mean the character had died hundreds of times?
@lurkingshadow, maybe I'll see what I can do post compo? Maybe if people are really interested it could be expanded :)
@Kragnir, heheh, it must have been running in the background. Sound like it was running quite fast too! :P
*Sounds
@HD408, the game runs at 60 frames per second. Can you give me more info about your computer system so I can figure out what might be wrong?
What OS are you running, etc.?
Anyone else having this problem?
@SecondDimension, did you finish it? The last bit can be quite tricky, at least for most people :)
Nice quick racer...neat time extension and nitro powerups.
I picked the catapult up, and then when I set it down it kind of rotated into the ground, so then I couldn't launch myself. Going to try again...
Fun little game! Love the concept. It was pretty easy once I figured out what to do. Web version crashed on the win screen (was playing it fullscreen if that helps). Good humor! :)
I got 1.06, is that good?!
Good character animation for 48 hours! :) Need to spread the enemies out a little more, introduce them one at a time at first and then build up. Kind of overwhelming being attacked by so many at once right off the bat. Not sure if using the shield helped much versus just swinging the sword?
Love the look of it and the silly characters! Would like to see a single player mode, could just randomize the enemy's choice?
I only got a few stages in...time limits are cutting it very close on almost all of them. I'd like it a little more relaxed so more people would see the whole thing. Nice use of ten seconds lives concept! :)
A little too easy to get caught on things and hung up, otherwise a fun little game! :)
Heheh, great minds think alike, huh? Cool that you came up with a block making and smashing mechanic too! :D
Beautiful graphics! Platforms sometimes knock the bear back if it doesn't clear it widely. Bear can't move slightly left and right while falling...I was trying to drop down to an acorn on a platform directly below and the bear just kept falling past the platform. Cannot light bear on fire - disappoint!
Very cute game :)
I'm making...beer! Seriously, why isn't there already a beer making game?! Nice work! :)
Interesting game and nice use of the concept! I got to the alien shooting at me and I guess I was supposed to shoot it? Would be great to have a continue feature so I wouldn't have to play everything up to that again :)
Love the concept here! Great graphics and animation too. A bit hard to keep track of whether I was pissing people off or not. Some of the comments are really funny! :)
Love your artwork! It seems like I got a better score if I randomly bashed the keys around :) P.S.: How did you know my diet consists of bacon, eggs, and popcorn?!
heheh, this is great! Best humor/story game so far :)
I love this game! Great concept, well executed. Day/night thing was fun and pretty challenging without being annoying. Awesome.
Maybe need a mechanic to encourage moving away from the Earth sometimes? Seemed like the controls went weird and seemed to stick, sending me off in one direction and hard to get back?
Kept getting killed without knowing why? I guess I was too slow? I like the consistent graphic style :)
Great concept! I couldn't get very far in it though. Not sure what I was supposed to do on the first screen...I guess I should try again later.
Would like to be able to click to change colors, needs a reset/exit puzzle button. Other than that, it's brilliant! I'm a big Picross fan and this game reminds me of Picross 3D in a good way! Nicely done!
Similar idea to what I came up with the lifetimes, but you took it way further, awesome stuff! It took a looong time to get to my turn and I kind of wished I could fast forward a bit. Once I got to my turn I just flailed around and did everything wrong as I figured I would. No pressure, right?! lol Good stuff!
Great fun! Sound didn't play on my PC, web version. Not sure if the later duels were harder, didn't seem like it got more difficult. Liked that you can tie. Too much fun to cheat, lol
Got killed on the first(?) boss, I think it was reflecting shots at me?
Very nice presentation! Couldn't figure out what to do at first. Looks like the bombs are way above the car/ship picking them up.
Great use of the theme! I could still see everything after the blackout from the green light. I was expecting to have to memorize the level and do it in the dark :P
Nice simplified war game. It took me a while to figure out the troops could be on the same space and contesting it. I had all of the enemy troops on one square and it took all long time for the battle to finish. Fun game!
Very crisp graphics! The look is the highlight of this one for me. Fun little short game :)
Got to level 15. The variety of powerups and different things to do is great! This one could have worked for the "strange powerups" theme too (or whatever it was called).
Fast and brutal! Very nice! :)
Wall jumping was a little hard. Not sure why I needed to press a key to pick up the key. Is there a time in the game you wouldn't want to pick up the key? Nice simple little game :)
Nice game! Some interesting levels and mechanics introduced a little at a time. That one had me stumped for a minute until I thought of running and using momentum :)
Pretty hard to stay alive. Very cool concept. One of the most innovative games I've seen for LD27.
I love the concept here! It's very hard to survive in normal form, so you're running around trying to kill everything before you turn weak again. Nice job! :)
I did SP mode. It seemed a little easy once I caught on to what I was supposed to do...but then again I was finishing each one with only a second or so to spare :)
I like the hand drawn buildings and character. I went on for a long long time and then my score was 5. Taxes! heheh
Fun game with a good sense of panic when running low on air. I love the running out of breath sounds, they really get you going. I finished it on my second try. Not sure if it was getting harder or if I was just getting better at grabbing powerups! :P
Cool idea :)
I can't rate it because I didn't make a game this time :/
heheh, I loved them to death :)
