Lovely idea and execution! But in five minutes of playing I hadn't found any children! D: Eventually the desolate music and the lack of children became unbearably depressing, but I enjoyed this, and haven't played anything else like it this jam! Well done.
The game looks amazing! And the physics is really fun to play with. Although it took me a while to get a kid on a hill cause I kept rolling back down. But over all its a really cool game. Nice job!
Poor beetle, like how he sticks to the dung when it flies......very nice and this done in 48 Hrs......
Man the graphics are dope!
this has potential but i think i need it to be a little less out of control (i know i know, the theme), i couldn't find the children outside the tutorial.. so i just explored a bit.. it was fun finding trees :)
if you keep developing, conciser adding a market to get back to your home
Quite a dramatic story. Very nice. I also agree with everyone else.
Good job, I like the visuals.
I have mixed feelings about this game, but all of them are good! The movement is really fun to play around with, the presentation of the world and music are hauntingly beautiful, and the characters are bugs that play with poop. I don't know how you crammed all of that into 48 hours of work, but it is great. My one gripe is that the theme isn't all that prevalent, though that was never a requirement. Overall, amazing work!
Nice job! The graphics and the effects of the game made me feel really immersed, and you did a good job of making the player feel small compared to the world. Well done :)
I wonder if this beetle got struct by lighting between different poop and toilet paper and becames a speedster dung beetle. Man does this little bug speed up. It gets out of control really fast for sure. It is looking quite advanced because of the 3D and Material stuff. Even a fade in / fade out for the menu or exiting the game, cool :)
This is a really cool game and its pretty fun just rolling around the world. Only thing I'd say is I couldn't find many of the children. The graphics are amazing tho!
Just rolling around with the beetle is actually reeeaally fun! However finding a kid and then "hitting" the target is way too hard. I rather wanted to roll around and make the beetle fly lol Cool submission though! Congratz! :)
Cool Concept and graphics however the area is too big couldn't find many children. also making the bettle so fast kinda takes the game away from the message it is going for.
The game is so great, has an original idea and plays amazing. Also, fits well the theme and the story is nice.
I could only find 3 children but the game is amazing. 5/5
i couldn't find any of my children, but i had way too much fun rolling my dirt around the world. thank you for this beautiful game.
wow nice idea! Never thought dung could be so fun! It was a tad bit laggy for me, I wished there was better performance enhancement settings that allowed for the same gameplay but weaker graphics for lower-end graphics! Well done!
