I can't imagine starting a game jam and thinking "Let me get out the video camera." And the gameplay is a classic. Awesome entry.

I think the jumping had a couple bugs that would make me "bounce", and it was hard to see where I could actually land. Overall it was fun, but I got lost in the maze because I couldn't see the walls on the minimap well enough. Everybody else already spoke my thoughts about the head bobbing and movement. I found the lighting to be a little overwhelming. It was hard to see things far away, and close up they were too bright to see. Good job. 3d mazes are awesome.
Interesting graphics and polished menus! Made me wonder about British history.
I wish there were a lose condition though. That would have captivated me longer, I think.
That was great! They kept sneaking up on me because they camouflaged so well in that environment. The sounds were a big part of the comedy for me, too.
If there were one thing I could add, I would have loved to be able to climb all over the structures.
Oh and it ran super fast!
@olkeencole Yeah I used Unity physics for the collisions and such, but I hate Unity's springs, so I wrote a PD controller for picking up the food.
Whenever I use springs I end up with those Garry's Mod type situations.
I couldn't get E to do anything. I wasn't sure what I could interact with. It looks like there's a lot there, but I couldn't get to it with the steep learning curve of just figuring out what my ability is. One time I made something turn, but I couldn't replicate it.
"Someone died" made me laugh. Also I'm curious as to why you chose not to use the arrow keys.
I'm having trouble downloading it from dropbox. The link brings me to my own dropbox account
I came for the attractive wide brush strokes, I stayed for the surprisingly addictive gameplay, and I left after I tried a billion times to get over that long set of columns.
I liked each individual art piece, but I do think they could have had more "blend". Overall simple but fun and frustrating. Took me back to yelling at Leo Steel
I didn't know what I was doing but I played it through anyway because it was gorgeous and the dinosaurs were cute.
