Ranked from 40 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.
In what way does your game fit the theme?
Your are managing a conveyor belt of meaty individuals, who happen to explode if you do it wrong.
The chaos happens due to the following factors:
1. The conveyor speed increases.
2. The characters explode if you miss and their parts will be all over the place.
3. You are an entry level in Hell and your job is to keep the chaos of punishment going.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I did all the assets, using blender, audacity, gimp and unity.

Awesome game! I do wish there was some sort of punishment for making them explode, like if you missed something would happen, I wish that the speed of belt got significantly faster (not too much and I know it gets faster but I was playing for awhile and it still felt really easy) but I wanted it to feel more chaotic in the sense of its hard to manage all these people, however we had one week and the art and ragdolls were really cool to mess around with, Good job!
Thanks! Appreciate your feedback a lot.
30 min prior submitting the entry I had it set that you loose one point per miss, but it became quite difficult to score; now I think I can setup something that takes 1 point per each 5 misses, or maybe breaks the ovens for a few minutes. I tried to spawn them in a shorter time and became a bit unmanageble, so I decided to code a small breather every certain amount of time.
Very cool idea! I needed a while to used to the D,F J, K keys though haha
Oh yes! I had it like A,S,D,F My wife test it and noticed that she was looking to hit the keyboard closer to the center, then I though, well, F and J have small tactile bumps, I can use that.
Finally I can punish all those queue jumpers mwahaha!
Oh yeah! They were my first on the list!
Game was really cool! this factory theme somehow reminding me a lot of purble place on windows 7. I also like how you make the character explode when you push em to wrong punishment machine, my only suggestion is that it need some catchy music to the game. Other than that well made game :D.
Thanks for the feedback! Glad you like it.
I have very sad story with the soundtrack, I have it working, I had to comment that line of code because for some reason the song skipped when I pushed multiple keys. Weird bug.
Very juicy sounds! I had a beautiful strategy of spamming all the buttons, so I'm never losing but never getting a good score either. But It's just fun to smash these little guys!! Well done!
OH! you truly had a strong strategy! Thanks for the feedback.
Initially I was discounting 1 point per exploting sinner, but it made it impossible to get a score, so I decided to keep it out.
Fun once you get it, however it wouldve been nice to make it a bit harder. Some arcade music wouldve really made it great as well, other than that, nicely done!
Glad you like it. I agree I need a better difficulty curve and I tried playing music, but for some reason it lag and restarted when physics triggered, which makes no sense, so I had to cut it out, but it was a funky beat.
Lmao actually pretty fun once u get the hang of it. The closing doors makes it unfair to reach greater heights of the game. With a bit of redesign, I'm sure it will be great!
Thanks for the feedback! Glad you like it, what features would you recommend?
I added the closing doors to add an extra spice of mental chaos and coordination.
Good game, just the physics can be a litlle bit unpredectibe, but it's not a true problem, the game still fun and cool
Glad you have fun with it and thanks for the feedback.
Initally physics would have been more agressive but decided to use that model for the "crunched / explosive sinner" and simply add a spring joints to the torso.
Very good idea, fun game.
the color pink don't spawn.
Glad you liked it!
I used a random generator, could have been better, maybe a control point to avoid color spamming.
Nice game! Funny sins
Thanks Adam! I enjoyed your game too, quite challenging.
Cool game! I liked the graphics and the use of ragdolls! But I think some more elements could’ve been added to the gameplay to make it even more chaotic.
Glad you liked it! I agree, I had plans to add special power ups that would clean up points against you, and evil a small devil that would be an automatic game over if you condemn it.
Satisfying to play, and was quit funny. Good job!
Thanks!! I'm happy you had a good time with it. Thanks for your feedback.
Pretty fun game! really chaotic.
Glad you like it! I was looking for a simple and chaotic mechanic, seems that I was lucky.
Evil concept! Graphics and mechanics are really cool, mechanics definitely causes a chaos!
Awesome! Thanks for your feedback, I started with another concept but I wanted to make something were the player had more interaction and control over the chaos.
Some music and a progress like speed up the bands would be a nice addition but otherwise the graphics are very nice and the chaos is definitely there!
I like these sound effect, they make the game satisfying. Controls are maybe too hard for me, but I know it was meant to cause chaos.
Thanks Reiko! Yeah the controls was tricky. Something I would do is put the colors in the pistons and letters so it would be easier to react, on the other side it might made it easier, so bug or feature? LOL
The game was fun to play around with, the sound effects and graphics are good enough, and the game fits the theme pretty well. Keep up making games like this.
Thanks! It was a personal challenge of mine, I like order and cleaning, so thinking about chaos mechanics was interesting, I started one game and then decided to go with this one. Glad to see it paid off, thanks for playing it!
Very fun, although a bit slow at times the wave mechanic makes the intense parts very chaotic.
The stupid giblets blocked my shots more times than I care to recount XD
Glad you liked it! The "difficulty pace" was quite a challenge, do I make them fall faster? or more? will it break the physics? Then I setup the curve as a breather, or it would have been way to intense.
About the giblets,... I thought on cancelling that collision, but then I noticed that it was part of the fun to take some control out of your shots by bouncing them against the people.
The ragdoll physics where great, you did pretty well on this one! Good job! Can I lose?
Thanks! Well, interesting you should loose after 6 sinners were pardoned (turned into angels), I noticed a potential glitch yesterday night, the game just kept on going. It should give you a score at the end. Feel free to retry just to check if the issue persist.
Btw, your game was really fun too!
Unbelievable that you managed to make this all alone in just 7 days. This can easily make its way to the top but I think you should make that title screen a bit more look catching so people would notice it .Keep up the good work.
Thanks for your time and feedback! Glad you like it.
I agree with you it needs a better title screen, maybe more saturated and contracted colors with a devil sitting on a desk, or behind the conveyor belt.
