The concept of switching between platformer and top-down movement (or being unstable in the context of the game, haha) on the fly is real neat! I could totally see myself playing a bullet hell or rogue-lite where this concept takes center stage.

Birthday Party: Out of control!

LudosGDDeveloper4 years ago

Thank you very much! Maybe I'll make an updated version in the future :)

This is sooo cute! I love the style! The idea of becoming faster and faster is perfectly balanced by the addition of the invincible mode, it makes you want to keep going.

The music perfectly matches fast-paced gameplay! I had a lot of fun playing with exaggerated controls and receiving a red "enrage mode" as a reward. :)

Time Flies... and other Bugs

LudosGDDeveloper4 years ago(+1)

Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed getting out of control, making sure it was the fun part of the game was my main concern :)

Great game, easy to understand and much fun!

LudosGDDeveloper4 years ago

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it :D

One of the most enjoyable entries I've played! I really had fun with the endless arcade like style and the high score! The connection with the theme was also great and clear. I don't know how it works in the standalone version but my only suggestion is to save the high score after refreshing the page. Otherwise, cool game and one of the best entries I've seen so far!

P.S. I'd love it if you could spare the time to check my game out :)

Thank you very much! :D

I'd really love to make a saving system for the game, but unfortunately I had to leave out some features to submit before the deadline. I'll keep it in mind for a possible future update though!

Very enjoyable! Very fun! Really "Out of Control" gameplay!

I really love the title: UnstableDerpySlimeyAlienRobotFromOuterSpace" supersilly! 🤣

A little piece of fun and delicious frustration... 😁 😁 😁

I hope to see expanded the game with new levels.

Great job (in 48h...)

LudosGDDeveloper4 years ago

The title is indeed very silly, I'm glad you like it so much :)

Thank you very much! :D

Ah, I quite enjoyed playing this game! The movement cycle is great and really does make it feel out of control. I can tell you put a lot of work into the core gameplay loop. Congrats!

Crowd Outta Control

LudosGDDeveloper4 years ago

Making the game fun through gameplay while following the theme was my main concern, so I'm really happy the effort got noticed. Thank you very much! :D

Wow this was super fun! I really like game play. This idea is clever, you should keep working on it! Great job submitting to the jam, and I hope you learned a lot of new things! If you have time, please check out my entry :D

Thank you very much! I'm really proud of this little game, and I learned a lot, so I already "won the jam" in a sense :')

Making the game fun was a priority for me so it's cool to see people enjoying it :D
