I know that feel bro! The game reminded me of similar happenings when i played on arcades :) loved it.. although in reality it was much easier to do this
Awesometacular! its superb, right from the main menu, and has the best music of all games i have played till now on LD27.. the graphics are great and so is the level design! Good job Deconstructeam!
epic game is epic! get us moaaar levels :D
A simple and action packed TD! Loved the visual and the music, the meteors breaking my upgraded towers was irritating because it felt unfair, but i lasted till $705 on my first run
Mega awesome! a wee bit of polish here and there, and this will be awesometastic!!
Gorgeous and melodious! The visuals are epic!
Gameplay need more thoughts, i feel. Overall, its great stuff for something done in 72 hours! I like your sense of visual design
14th try, am still awful :P but some people love such games..
Played it for quite sometime! its a good game! i loved the art style
I am not sure if its the game or its just me who is awful at the game.. I think i was suking bad.. although the game looked nice and inviting!
A bit more interactivity during fight might have made it more fun, not sure..
The visuals were good and the UI was cool too.. A polished entry
Nice art! The screens made me expect something like dustforce, but this was different! The robots are pretty harmless.. i liked it
The game looked and played well.. Some more interesting levels would be nice
Surprisingly awesome looking! the game is way better than what i expected from the screenshots! the controls work nice, the only problem i had was that the character stopped moving sometimes when the character came too near to the mouse; obviously thats how it is supposed to work because, i realised it later..
I think you should spend more time with the level design this can be a big game!
It took me sometime to figure out the control scheme.. also the main menu should have an option to instant start... i started liking the game once i was good at it, but still its very basic.
I wish i could be better at it but its a tough game! love the art and the concept, and the music too! the wheeled hamster is awesome
I liked the little town! the thrill to maintain the timer was fulfilling! i twice got saved on a near zero mark :D
Awesometacular!
You sir have a good sense of humour! i loved the 3d visual touch to 2d gameplay! and the music, awesome again!!
Watched the video, the game looks polished! dark visuals reminded me of my entry ;) Nice sad music
One of my fav so far! i hope you get a prize for this
The characters look amazing and the levels are cool!
How many guys/gals and how much time did it take to achieve this?
404 :(
Nice and simple game! i love pixellated art so i gave it full on visuals :D
great job with the audio too!
pretty tough to beat the game with a trackpad, will try again with mouse
Congrats on ur first entry.
The game needs a lot of work, but i liked the way i can toss enemies with my bullets.. work the controls more enjoyable
The sound effect for the building breaking was a bit harsh.. I liked the approach of using levels as linked mazes, but it wasn't utilised much and the game was fairly easy.. There was no performance issue for me
Jump height sometimes bugs down, causing me to inevitably collide with the red boxes.. Also i do like to take blind jumps in pits :(
Please run it on a browser, preferably Chrome for best performance, Thanks.

Hello party people!
Here is a link to the web hosted version; Play it here if you have performance issues.
Don't forget to vote if you like it :)
Thanks for playing all!
@Unept the sounds are recorded on an microphone, everything is my voice with, obviously edited using audacity :)
@SaintHeiser: Did you try the web hosted link: http://www.stencyl.com/game/play/21023
- i wanted to incorporate the 10-second theme in the gameplay mechanics rather than in the narrative. I understand its not the most direct way and most games have made a more obvious use of it, thanks for the tips..
- Some computers have reported performance issues, some work just fine. I should be able to fix the occasional frame-rate drops some of you face but i don't i am allowed to change the builds till the judging is over, so i should wait.
I hope you all are able to play and like the game :)
<3 Thanks Jumpcraft! I promise i to totally fix the framerate issues in post ludum release!
At first i thought the game is buggy, but its just difficult.! nice job
Simple and satisfying! i liked the visuals, they make the stand out.. Biggest area of work here i would say, would be the collisions, specially when the character sticks to the walls
Promising concept, had performance issues for me. I think the mechanic can be further worked on to make it awesome
One of fun games to play in this jam! Its funny the way he says 'ouch' :P
The game plays and feels nice!
Its my understanding that you are simulating the levels at normal speed and forcing time stop. Its a nice thing to do but what ended up happening is, some levels became unplayable for me because the bullets blocked every jump route i could have taken.. so i had to die and try again. Apart from that, i liked it
The color combination works pretty nice.. I felt the game in itself was a bit slow, but its cool to play
An awesome game! Great pixel art, and polished controls! This game would be awesome with dual stick controller too
This could deelop into something cool! loved the soundtrack
Very oldschool! I'd play the hell out of it with a controller!
Awesome minimalist game, the audio is awesome as well! great job
Great game! I like the way your brain worked
A great game from one of my favorite developers! I was looking forward to your entry! Reminded me of the 1st gta!
Download file is an ecxe :( it should say 'windows' instead of 'download'
Cant play due to no mac/web version, but gave good reviews because of great art and bieber-egg reference :)
I had great fun with this game.. would like to play a full game with this story :)
Very different from the other entries! A tutorial will be helpful
One hell of a game :P
Some checkpoints would help a lot! enjoyable game.. I couldn't get very far, not for the lack of trying.. i wonder if the game tells what had happened actually
Looks and plays great! a little tricky for me because i use touchpad, but still enjoyable!
Level design needs to be more streamlined, a good game nonetheless considering something made in 48 hours.
A great game! Very soulful, with a strong message. Great job
The controls and handling are pretty hardcore. A good looking game! nice work
Very retro, loved the loading screen! a bit too difficult, but great work for 48 hours!
One of the best entries in LD28 so far! Congrats on the newground feature!
PS: I wish i could shoot arrows while jumping :D
It seems i am really good at this game! nice graphics, widescreen in awesome
A fun and good looking game! ideal for mobiles too
Great game and well implemented! Graphics are great! Good job fellow stencyler!
Great game, thanks for making the frame so big. interesting work with the audio! :)
Those are some weird dialogues you have there :)
We have a winner here :)
Another beautiful and awesome game! shut up and take my ratings
Super cool tileset! Loved the mechanics and how the level shuffles onto place.. The later levels got too tricky for me, i think the onboarding to the new mechanics can use more love :)
I don't know what it is but i was really excited :)
+points for the snowfall!
One of the best LD31 games i have played so far!
Great art and interesting game. I wonder how you managed to get that done with the entire game alone in a weekend!
The game is away from the theme, not including theme section here makes sense but then it beats the whole point of a Jam..
Also, there is no Source link anywhere.
Great game in terms of style and mod, but the gameplay lacks that charm.. It tried to be different from Super crate box but still wasn't as fun to play.
Still the game is visually a treat!
Your visual style is superb! The papercut-doodle is really charming.
Also the addition of castle building to this classic mechanic is a good addition! Good job overall! Would love to see some evolution of this game
Great Job! I thought the Fireside could be used to melt icemen, it would be a rewarding action :) Seeing it being penalised was kinda bummer, i suggest you think about it :)
Great controls and feedback, suits the theme and is easy to handle. Would have loved to see the fail state also resetting the level like it does in level transition!
Great music and simple gameplay! i like how the squad members have different strengths and usability
A new play style! I think with a little more handholding and better feedback loops this game can be something cool. Your soundtrack is awesome btw :)
Great game, the Panda looks great! Great music as well.!
The art and the music seem too good to be made within 48 hours by an individual, great job there.. The gameplay gets repetitive real quick and can use some more thoughts.
I must say, some really interesting choice on the controls :)
Shooting zombies never gets old
Great animation! Would love to play a bigger frame version.. Te soundtrack and the parallax scrolling is well done.
Love the game! Got me connected to the characters in such limited environment. Very powerful and thought provoking.
Liked the name, i was expecting some kind of new mobile game :)
The combat system can use some more details, this has potential
Was fun at the start! great graphics and soundtrack
'Swat' made me lol
The game looks interesting but i was unable to control the shooting mechanism.. i see the aiming but how do i shoot :(
Please include the controls in the description..
God job! Loved the gameplay ! the light on the wall sometimes confused me towards a top down game as the world was changing forms... Its a bit away from the theme, but is great nonetheless!
The idea is really good, but the game lacks agency.. i often feel i did not have have a fair chance before dying
Loved the game and art, although i am not sure if that was made for the Jam because it is so faraway from the theme(and looks stunning :) )
Great choice for the soundtrack!
Lovely art and theme for the game.. the gameplay is simple but fun to play! You should make a post Jam version :)
Fun game! gets overwhelming quick though
A very different game! great job achieving this in just 48 hours
Great game! In your interest take the game down if the election results go in a particular direction :P
Pixel art and color schemes are fantastic! The collisions are great, but gameplay needs a little tweaking. Solid entry for the jam duration! I look forward to a full version :)
All 3 button mashing worked for me :) just the score ended up going negative every few seconds :) A refreshing game, Good job
Interesting combat mechanics. The later levels start getting tough. Good Jam entry
Solid entry! Clever control scheme. It is a great arcade experience. Well done
The 'Build-your-monster' system, where the efficiency of the monster lies in how scary it is, it great! I loved the game and the art adds a funny tone to it! A good Jam game!
Nabbed that little devil! Got caught a number of times in the process. Fun game overall. Has a lot of potential.
Lovely game! The rubbing mechanic works great, that was a surprise. The soundtrack was awesome. Kids definitely scare me more than monsters :D great entry all the way
Cute and entertaining entry! Loved the soundtrack. Would work great on a touchscreen device
Difficult to understand the gameplay. Nice use of the theme.
Good effort for the 48 hour timeframe. A couple of pointers:
- Let the player accelerate even when it is in the air. This way even if he missed the perfect jump because of colliding with an obstacle when the jump starts, he will have a chance of not getting totally screwed. It is only fair as the background scrolling never stops.
- Reduce the size and the speed of the squirrels. You must give the player sufficient window of opportunity before an obstacle kills the player.
great entry! City destruction sandboxes are always fun :)
Well this was unexpected :) good job
Fabulous looking entry! Cant believe it is done in such small time, great job there. If the gameplay evolves further, this can become something great!
Loved the color scheme! The gameplay is a little, well odd :) but it works in its way. Great entry!
Like the concept. You need to work on the feedback loop to reinforce the mechanics for the player. I died in the tutorial once and then the tutorial didn't show up again, I was sent to the game directly every time. I couldn't find the perspective switch 'Bar' that the tutorial showed me again in the game.
You should remove the 'Theme' rating parameter from your Rating entry. Since you are aware and have declared the game is not made to fit the theme, it will only help you improve the ratings for this interesting little game.
20300 Score! Solid entry. Loved the little particle trail for the bird :)
The blocky art works great! I would like to see the gameplay evolve a little as you keep surviving :)
This game is oddly satisfying! Completed the game in the second attempt, not so tough and very much playable. The soundtrack was amazing. The art style really suited the absurdity of the game!
One of the most fun LD game I have played so far this time! Keep up the great work
Couldn't play it because I don't have a windows pc, but the youtube video was awesome! I loved the art style and the mood you have set for the game.
The game has great potential! I think it can work as a nice mobile game. I played the game on a macbook, It is tough to control multiple saws with the tap-drag on touchpad. The soundtrack was nice. Good job overall!
I think the game has some potential. You should spend some time in a post Compo version and explain the mechanics a bit more :) good effort.
Great little puzzle game! Love the art style, and the theme was used in a great way! Solid entry
The best LD33 game I have played so far! Great work.
Very polished entry. The soundtrack is amazing, so are the graphics. If you play Dota, this is a good target practice for Mirana arrows :D
A beautiful entry! Keep up the great work
There is something oddly satisfying about it! Devoured more than 100 of those little things. The game can use some more challenge, its a good start.
Thanks for playing the game. The game is a homage to the classic Donkey Kong. You also said you were disappointed by it not being like DK, but that contradicts with your first point of it being a blatant mario rip off..
Anyway, thanks a lot for the review, I have a lot planned and keep working on bringing the game it to its full potential. On a side note, be more careful when you are the first reviewer for anything creative. If you are giving reviews based on your own biases, they will still stay at the top and will affect any other who plays the game.
@Hyoga I get what you are saying! Puppet kinda slightly animated Kong! That would have been cooler yeah :)
@ReddogStone: the physics was added later, to allow for skill shots. This would allow the players to stay closer to the vending machine and still cover a larger area. I am glad you too gave the idea a thought, I was hoping for more DK demakes :) Thanks
Mac version crashes for me :( OS 10.8 macbook pro
Took a couple of attempts getting used to it, but turned out to be an
entertaining experience after that. Good graphics and level design. Solid entry for the limited time!
Best. Entry. Ever.
'DON'T RATE BASED ON THIS'
Don't tell me what I can and can't do! *rates based on this*
In all seriousness, this the most enjoyable LD33 entry so far! I just broke the heck out of a room filled with urinals, and birds! Just what I look forward to in a great game! Kudos!
Nice game, the dialogues are hilarious! I would love to play a more polished post compo version. Great entry!
Reminds me of some of the better creepypastas.. Great storytelling and a good enty
Would love to play this multiplayer with friends! good work
Nice sound effects :) Gameplay is challenging. I often die due to missed charge attempts. Good entry.
Crashed for me :( Macbook pro, OS 10.8
Nice animations! Good work.
Okay I cannot explain what happened on the last 15 minutes on my computer screen :P Definitely a refreshing game.. I don't know what you were smoking but it worked good!
Very interesting concept! The gameplay is a little confusing, but the turn based gameplay is still fun. Solid entry for a compo game!
Lovely entry! Reminds me of mine in some ways. Loved the cut-out style characters. The game was easy to beat once I found a spot and kept the attack button pressed. Fantastic work for the little time.
Nice and super polished game! Loved the art.
Unable to play the game, saw the time-lapse video. Good work
You should consider removing the Humor criterion to improve the average ratings for the game. Loved the game, took me by surprise! Great job.
A super fun entry! This would work great as a shared screen multiplayer tablet game. The visual style stood out, great job overall.
Changing size looks like a fun mechanic! good job
A beautiful game! Love the style
The folk singer with the string instrument is the best thing ever!! The game is fantastic! I don't remember being so entertained by a LD entry!
Error (500) When i use the Ludum page play option.
The 'web' link also didn't work. I think you moved the files in your Dropbox..
The art style is quite unique. The quick tree climbing mechanic is also fairly fresh. Gameplay needs more polish. I liked the game.
Mr Chompy seems like a deep sea fish brought on the land! I wanted to play till the end but the got a little too laggy. Great job for the little time. keep it up
What is that thing on their arms :) ?
Loved the gamy, keep it up
The black outlines on the terrain looks good. The characters seem funny. Good entry for the Jam time limit!
Good game. I had trouble understanding when you are ready for moving through the tiles. The enemy health bar system works great, that was a surprise!
The game is tough at first. Good job on the story front. Nice entry for the limited time.
Good game! Loved the open world feel.
The music feels good at first but gets repetitive. I wish the controls were just keyboard.. The mouse makes it hard to control.
Great polish! The animations are lovely.. I would like to see what you have in mind for the Mutation system. Great job for the time limit!
Please fix the controls, or give some information on how to play. Unable to get past the first screen. btw unless Dawson G and Jerod D are the same people, this is not a Compo entry in my experience.
A very under rated entry! I think the game has a lot of potential.. In the current sandbox state, the game is still very fun to play.. I would like to see a post compo version with more evolution to the system :) great job with the ragdolls and animations
Great visuals! Love the old style rendering you have there! Awesome effort for the little time
Haha great entry! The ending of the monster is super fun to watch when he is carried away all the way! That was a great way to show the emotion of being overwhelmed! Loved the game :)
The difficulty growth is a little slow. That should be sorted after some playtesting. I loved the strange items the monster had in his inventory. The sfx were cool, so was the art. I loved the game and enjoyed it :)
Nice game, love the pixel art. Would have been easier to take down the enemy if the player height was a little more.
Games like these make me happy :) Great work
Interesting new face toggle mechanic. The characters were quite disturbing.. The world was very interesting, I would love to see this furher developed and understanding more about the setting. Great job
Beautiful looking game! The feedback needs to be strengthened to make the game more engaging. Tone down the difficulty a bit for us mortals :) Solid entry for the compo duration!
Interesting concept. The feedback loop needs to be stronger. I loved the colorful text effect in for the narration! Great job for your first Ludum entry, keep it up!
Good story! Good writing too.. Loved the pixel art frames
Some funny dialogues :D ..great artwork
Now excuse me while I have some Mountain Brew!
I got lost in the gameplay, was clicking everything to see if something happens. The art was fantastic, so was the audio!
One of the best games I have played in the LD! Great job creating so many soundtracks and levels in lust 48 hours! Kudos!
I loved the game, this is the kind of thing I was looking forward to play when I heard the theme!
Kinda reminded me of the last Superman movie, the good guys and bad guys did same damage to the city :P
Okay what was it that I just did.. I am a monster :D great weird game
Great game for the Jam duration! Loved how people were just walking around the city in midst of giant massacring monster and the bombings :D Solid entry
The game became dark after a while.. I really felt sorry for the Monster :)
Great and polished game.. Solid Jam entry!
