A jam submission

Stupid BobView game page

The main character acts by himself, but he isn't smart enough so you will need to keep pushing him, silly yet fun!

This was the funniest game I've played all day, absolute stitches - I'm just sorry I couldn't help bob get to his final destination

Developer

Thank you very much for checking it out! Your stream is amazing by the way.

It was super fun knocking bob around the stage but the gravity seemed a bit weird. He kept double jumping himself through the top of the first stage and dying. Still very fun though

Developer

I'm very happy you had a fun time playing!

Yeah ... I didn't have enough time to tweak the movement, dying trigger, and hitboxes, so it's a bit weird at times. Will defiantly work on that if we continue development.

Thank you for playing and leaving a comment.

The game was very fun and I really liked the quirky visuals. My main criticism is that the speed of the game is a bit too fast which can make it feel a bit less out of control and a bit more frustrating. I think that Bob should probably be a bit slower and the speed of the camera should also be decreased so that is a bit more manageable to guide Bob. Also, I think that the time between dying and reloading the game should be instant or have some kind of animation. That being said, I loved the concept and the execution was really good. I hope you keep developing this game, great job!

Thank you very much for your awesome comment.
Yeah ... I didn't have much time to tweak his movement and he ended up too fast. Your suggestions are very appreciated as we might continue working on this game post-jam. Thank you for taking the time to check it out and for sharing your thoughts.

Daaamn I love the game, I love bob's derpiness (is that a valid word though?) and I love the music. It fit's together so great! Definitively one of the better games.

Would you rate our game as well? Much appreciated!

Challenging game! I included it in my GMTK Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Developer

Thank you very much for checking it out! I watch your videos they're great!
But just to clarify, the game is played by dragging the boxes under and around him to try to control his movement, you should check out the trailer:

Bob has such a cool and wacky animation! It was fun to try a save him.  Great mechanic idea for sure. Congrats on submitting a neat puzzle game to the jam!  Please check out my browser game when you can :D

Developer

Thank you for checking out the game and for leaving a comment. I will check out your game

Really enjoyed this one. Started to actually complay that Bob was that stupid. Also, the way it connected with the theme, although not 100% original, was tackled in a way that made it very interesting!

Once I got a hang of it, it got kinda fun, but the random air jumps resulted in quite a few cheap deaths.  
Given it's a game jam, there probably should have been a checkpoint for each part. 

The main thing I'd have loved to see is a death animation -  seeing Bob be reduced to a pool of blood after he jumps into the saws for the 10th time in a row like the idiot that he is would bring me great joy.

In short
Bob is dumb, your game is not. 

Developer

Thank you very much for checking out the game and for your nice comment.
Yeah ... I didn't have much time to tweak his movement. As for the animations actually we made some but the time wasn't enough to add them to the game, unfortunately.
We might update it post-jam so thank you for your suggestions.

Clever and silly game that brought a smile to my face. Love how pesonable Bob was, almost felt bad for punting him to his doom at times.

Developer

Hahaha. I'm very happy you liked it. Thank you for playing!!

It's very cute. I can't stop him from hitting the first saw blade in the pit, but I got a laugh out of it. I especially liked Bob's wiggly arms.

Developer

Thank you very much for your comment. I'm very happy you liked it!

As for stopping him from hitting the saw, you will need to drag the box under him when he jumps so you can lift him. Or block the pit with the box and use the other box to keep pushing him.

Did you read the instructions? The game is played by dragging boxes and other various objects to push Bob around and keep him alive while going to the right to complete the level.

That's right there are no in-game instructions, I didn't have time to think about that 😅. As for the description, it indeed includes instructions, check the full description in the game page.

Thank you for trying our game.
