Hey! your game looks great and it is very challenging, but fun to play! The cacti and the sound effects are funny :)   We played on the browser and was very challenging dealing with the mouse. However, it has a lot of potential as a mobile game! Maybe starting a little bit easier would make it more engaging (but the idea of the frustration matching the Jam's theme was very clever).  Also, adding some sort of control over the level of the music would enhance significantly the UX.   Kuddos!

I gave it a high rating and found it to be a very humorous game. The sound the hat makes when it hits the ground made me giggle, and I also really enjoyed the game's graphics. However, I have yet to successfully hit the cactus in this challenging and addictive game. If you want to would you feel like rating my game please? Or if not then you could help the people in the need of rating catogory. What ever you choose it is up to you. Keep up the creation of fun games :)

The web version of this game never seems to get past the initial screen. :(

Rated it and it's a very good and funny game and that sort of fart sound when the hat lands on the ground did made me laugh and I really love the visuals, it's a very hard and addictive game and until now I still didn't manage to hit the cactus. Would appreciate it if you rate my game.

Funny concept, nice job on visuals, especially the caxtus models. One thing I would suggest is giving a new hat sooner; currently it appears it only gives a new one when it hits the ground which is a while after it's past the cactus/gone off the screen.

Fun game, nice work!

Hey thanks for the feedback! Im glad you like the visuals, its my first real attempt using Blender (and giving up halfway on its texture painter). And thanks for the suggestion, I'll shoot it past my mate when we're together next 👍

Oh man I agree; setting up texture painting in blender is a pain. 😂

Looks fun! Can't get it to work on desktop :((

Ah nuts, sorry to hear that. There's a mobile version if you have one. Either way thanks for letting us know!
