very funny short experience with regdoll physics
original concept man! :-)
Thank you so much :)
This game makes good usage of the physics engine (it's fun) and has a scenario and a clever game and level design. Nice game overall (could you rate mine by the way?).
Thank you! I appreciate your comment! Your game is really nice too!
Your idea is very interesting and fun to play =) It takes some time getting used to controlling the shovel but after you do, the fun starts! Good job!
Yeah, It was hard for me too in the first place :D It has a little bit longer learning curve and needs to be polished. I hope I can make something out of it :)
Thank you for your attention and time! :=)
this game is nice! Prayers for shovel
Hahah thanks ! :D
Everyday I’m shoveling! My favorite thing is to go small then launch up and drop a giant shovel back down. Felt really cool. Maybe just add a max speed when the shovel gets really small it’s a bit hard to track.
It takes a while to get the hang of the controls but when you do it’s really fun and the bit of unpredictability makes it even more fun! Great job!
I am so happy that you liked that mechanic, because of time limitation, It was hard to explain it to player via level design!
I really liked that mechanic myself too while developing it :D
Thank you for your time and good commentation !
That was a fun game. My favourite mechanic would be throwing the shovel and then calling it back. For a moment I felt like the long lost brother of Thor (No, not Loki :P ). Nice one!
Hahaha thank you so much! It is one of my favourite mechanics too! It can be developed in different ways. I am really happy you liked it. Maybe we can add a hammer item too huh? :D
Thank you for your time!
Nice game
Haha, crazy and unique. And is anyone gonna mention Poppy Li?
Hahahah Thanks Bubble! While I was working at my workplace I had an enlightenment. Why don't we become the shovel? Maybe shovel is really about creativity and is universal :D
I am shoveling :D Keep up the good work
Thank you for shoveling :D
Everyday I'm SHOVELING...
Jesse, we need to dig! Strangly enough, i liked the idea of the game! It was nice to control physics object, that can fly in the air. I suggest you to change the setting a bit: choose something that can really fly (not showel) and chose some enemies that player will want to hide from. The game's good anyway and if you feel like it, check out my game too
Thank you for your criticism! I know you looked up on many games, thank you for your time!
I will consider your suggesitons. Your game is really good by the way as I commented!! :D
What a unique character being the shovel haha. it was fun playing.
Thank you !:D
Your game is great too! (I commented in last few minutes :D)
your game is really fun. I love the concept. The movement and control was great.
very different I liked it
pretty fun game, the controls felt great!
Nice idea of game.
a different game, good idea
This game is so fun, why a shovel, kinda hard and the graphics are ok but it's fun 😂
The physics are so well done
I am really happy that it entertained you! I had questions in my mind about the graphics, how to instruct player. I spent so much time on the physics mechanics but couldn’t give the right amount of focus on to other aspects of game as you noticed :D
I will try your game as soon as possible ! Thank you for your attention and comment :)
Bro, add an ability to open the game in fullscreen please!
Dear Zune tech, thank you four adressing this. I didn’t know about this. I think it launches in only fullscreen right now :)
Thanks a lot!
It seems pretty interesting and unique, but needs a tutorial . gets very confusing soon. But i liked the concept.
overall good game, cheers. Try our game as well, you will like it.
I totally agree with you Pih Realms.
Thank you for your well made constructive criticism. It was a question that remained unsolved through publishing this game, but i didn’t have the time for that.
I forgot the cable of my laptop at someplace, but i found it. I will check out your game as soon as I can!
Thanks for your attention.
Cheers!
