How does your game fit the theme?
Two beetles join forces together to offer their most precious treasure to the gods. This game requires the player to control two characters at the same time in order to conquer different levels. It also can be played co-op sharing the keyboard or a gamepad.

Probably a lot more enjoyable as a multiplayer, it's quite tough to control both characters at once. Looks great, super polished!
Thank you!
Really neat, love the aesthetic and the theming. I do think it feels a bit more like a 2 player game that 1 player is being made to play, however.
Tbh the game was designed to be "interesting" with the gamepad and both sticks controlling the beetles, but after introducing the keyboard the 2 players variant gained a lot of traction. Thank you for your feedback!
Ah, that makes sense. Very unfortunate that it had to support keyboard, since that's what I ended up playing it with. Definitely see how it would feel a lot more interesting on a controller.
Super cute game! Great physics and good mechanics! The gameplay felt good and it was a fun game as well! Well Done!
Thank you!! :)
So, I really clicked on a game just because I saw "Caca" in the title huh...
...
Damn. I'm such a kid. X)
Still that was really nice! The visuals are CHARMING. I like the way you modeled the two beetles! They look fun and full of energy! :D
And the way you push the Caca Ball X). That's hard when playing alone :')... but when you succeed, you're proud! B)
The controls are really simple and it helps a lot! Also the music is really catchy! That's cherry on the pie! It makes the game way more enjoyable! :D
Congrats! :)
I'm really glad you came for the name and stayed for the game hahaha. Thank you for all your comments and feedback!! I'm super happy you enjoyed our little "experiment" :)
its hard but really fun, good job making a 3d game in such a short time!
Thanks!!
Controlling two characters at once is always hard, but I think you got the sweet spot to make it fun! Congrats!
Thank you!!!
So polished! Love the beetles and the humor. Great stuff!
Thank you for trying it!! also your game was awesome <3
Wow, it is really fun to play with friend, with nice and smooth control, and really polished too!
I'm glad it's fun to play with friends! the game was designed for single player but the co-op variant emerged from gameplay and tbh I think it's a "happy accident". Thanks for the feedback!!
A sweet game! I was playing alone on a keyboard (which is a bit difficult), but I bet playing with someone else would be tons of fun, especially with how goofy and out of control this game could get.
Thanks! <3
Hot damn , i really like the art work , gameplay is very clear and simple , this probably the best game i play in the jam , u should hit me up for future collapse
Thank you!!
Gameplay is simple and effective, but the art is outstanding, must be the best looking one I've seen so far. Congrats!
Thank you!
Classical interpretation of the theme but it looks so georgious !
Thanks!!
Love the art, I would play any game featuring these beetles. The single player experience wasn't great, I'm not a fan of puzzle games where the main challenge is getting the controls to do what you want. But I think it would be fantastic fun for 2 players.
The beetles really are the best!
Thanks! <3
SO CUTE! I love this game! I love everything about it from the name to the art and music to the mechanics! I love games that have non-human characters so extra points there! And also Egyptian mythology too and AND Egyptian mythology in a take that isn't orientalist/occultist! That's not that common and is really refreshing! I wear a ring that is this type of beetle because I love this symbolism, the power of the small yet mighty, appreciation for all levels and forms of life, seeing beauty in the mundane, and of course the sun! Thank you for making this game! I will definitely come back to it again!
I'm so happy you liked the theme!! thank you!! <3
I liked it so much! I sent it around to other people to make sure they got to enjoy the adorable beetles too! Also I (the animator/one of the artists for this game) gave you both a follow on twitter (I'm @genkisoda) because I wanted to see more of what you do!
That was amazing. Super fun concept. The characters are so cute, the step sound and the frantically running around to not make the ball fall cracks me up. Just to end up falling off the map with one of the characters.
Great submission. I love it.
Hahaha thank you!!
I played it together with the wife and we laughed our asses off every time one of us fell off. We both loved it.
omg!!! First of all I had a legit chuckle when i read the name. Secondly, Thiis was the best game i played so faar presentation wise!!! The music, the UI, the tutorial, the color palette, the characters! The character design is so good. I love the little pink/teal one. I want a plushie. It's pretty frustrating to plat alone, but I know that it was intended for more of a two player experience. I can't applud you guys enough. Super polished and I'm waiting for the full game.
Awww thanks for your comment, seriously!!
Great game, fun mechanic, good and fitting art, well polished.
This is impressive you pulled that off in the jam!
Made me wonder if it would be fun for a casual game for 2 players to play, where there's one ball but two goals for each player and they need to compete against each other. (The same controls, just 4 characters total) Sounds chaotic and fun.
Well done!
Sounds like tons of fun and chaotic beetle action! hahaha thank you for your comment and suggestion :)
Funny theme and well made! Great job !
Thanks!
Did I struggle? Yes. Did I have fun? Also yes.
Hahaha I'm happy you had fun!! (and struggled)
Omg the animations are perfection. And great visual design in general and coool music. What a great entry!
Thanks!!
