Lol - Took me a bit to get it going but well done - Making a game in 48hr is hard

Submitted

Nice movement mechanic, but I wish the first click didn't already pull you, or that the second click was the one that recalled the paper roll. As it is I ended up killing myself a lot for not double clicking or triple clicking right away to be able to click away from hazards that were previously offscreen, and its a bit uncomfortable for me to to mash left click.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback my friend, this is really valuable!

I've been toying around with the amount of push and pull quite a lot, trying to remove the feeling of being out of control -- the kinds of death you describe I've had on several occasions myself.


Ironically, I added it with the focus of giving the player more authority over where they are going, but I've heard from several people now that its unintuitive.


If you don't mind chatting to me about this - do you think adding an animation would help with this? Or maybe remove the possibility to spam the throw, in order of enforcing a slower, more deliberate gameplay style? Hmm, or maybe remove the second throw as you suggest, but implement air strafing??

Submitted

Its definitely something you'll have to experiment with and figure out what matches the game best, you already have some solid ideas on how to tackle it, air strafing could help for sure. Something you can try is adding another button, for example the first left click throws the paper roll, any left clicks while the roll flies pulls you towards it, right click recalls the roll. Or the roll flies away from you but doesn't pull you until you make it, but that might need some other changes.

Best toilet game ive ever seen ngl

Submitted

It is pretty hard, but I like that about it. It is a really good game.

Significantly better than I first suspected.

Submitted

Hope your brother got the help he needed.

Fun concept, i can see this becoming the next getting over it / pogostuck :D love the assets you choose!

Submitted

This is the most fun entry I have played yet in this jam. Who knew there was so much fun to be had while flying around on a toilet. I wish there were checkpoints though coz the game gets very difficult and many a times it's hard to notice what's coming in front. But I think I'm gonna play this more whenever I'm bored.

It reminded me the game "Getting over it", very funny lol

Developer(+1)

I actually started with that concept in mind -- getting over it, but with a grappling hook. It didn't work as well as I thought, so it evolved into this :D

Submitted(+1)

It's an interesting idea hahah. It was really fun to play!

Submitted(+1)

Really liked this game, a unique idea. Don’t know how it fits the theme though

Developer

Thank you! The concept fit comes from the detached object used for movement :)

what a weird but fun game 🤣

Submitted(+1)

This cracked me up!! Did your brother really get stuck in the toilet?? I was a bit confused by the controls, but it was fun trying to get it right :)

Developer

True story from many years ago :D 


Thank you on the feedback for the controls! I'll look into adding a better tutorial next time around

That is one heavy roll of toilet paper. Strange... but enjoyable. Good work on making a fun mechanic

Developer

Thank you very much! 


And yeah... don't think about the toilet paper too much :D

Submitted(+2)

This game was very fun, I would add more sections with ground because spamming was less fun then at the end where I got to line up my shots. Really funny though great humor in this entry.

Submitted(+1)

a bit easy if you just keep clicking but actually pretty fun

Submitted(+2)

I legit think that this mechanic could be used in an official release, as someone who loves games like this i would totally buy it
