I thought "oh cool, a game about that hill" and then loved it when I realized you're the cheese. Great job!

I couldn't contain my laughter when I first launched the game and saw people falling down past. Great job xDDDDDD

I'm so glad to hear that! It's what I was going for :)

Thank you for playing!

Haha, what on earth? Neat idea to make a game about this event. I remember watching some sort of doc about it a while back.

I got to 2720. Seems like cheesing diagonally is a pretty good strat.

Developer

Yeah the event came to mind when brainstorming for some reason, and I couldn't help myself. Thank you for playing!

I loved thrashing my poor computer running this in WASM. I was surprised how accurate the cheese physics were, like it seemed like gyroscopic motion was pretty spot on. Also "cheese physics" is not a phrase I think has been uttered before, except maybe within modded Skyrim.

The "cheese physics" (lol) are all bevy_xpbd. The character controller is pretty rudimentary, it just adds a small force and roll-axis torque whenever the player holds left/right. So in the air you get a little motion and while rolling you "tilt" over.  It's not the best but it seems to behave well enough.

Thanks for playing, and a hearty thank-you as well to your computer. I hope you had fun!

Developer

Thank you! It's all bevy_xpbd :)

does something special happen if you roll long enough?

Developer (1 edit)

No, right now you just keep (Cheese) Rolling Forever. but in a future release after the Jam it would be nice to add more obstacles and maybe power-ups or something.

Thank you for playing!
