This is oddly cathartic. I'll be honest. I saw the picture of the dude running with scissors and was like "I'm in!" that being said, I had no idea what the heck I was doing. I found what I thought was an exploit which was I could scoop the people up and let them slide down the chain off screen. The scissor guys didn't seem like they could harm me. I thought they would at first. And I also thought that once I got the chain long enough, I'd win or move on to the next level but that didn't happen. The game was very fun but like I said, I had no idea what I was doing.

yah the idea was to basically have a chain of people where you could grab more people to make your chain longer. But then scissor people and other type of people could cut the chain. And the end game idea was to have the chain get to a length where it could "reach the moon" (camera would zoom out as the chain gets longer). Obviously none of that got implemented because I ran out of time trying to get the chain of people physics to work (and it still turned out janky).  So maybe next game jam lol, but thanks for giving it a go.

You have the start of something really cool here - I can definitely see where you are going with the concept, and it would be great to see you finish it!

I mean, I had to be honest with those ratings: this is fun and original. But is this a game? Nice job anyway! :D

no problem with the ratings man, I uploaded a very unfinished project lol. I spent so much time with the chain of people physics that I didn't have time to get the actual game in lol. Thanks for giving it a go!
