Great game XD
The puzzle is simple but entertaining. The placement of the platform is good too. You can trap the protester between platforms that let you have time to think about the puzzle.
There are also some bugs that I found while playing the game
1. Sound
When the player died because falling of the pit, the game reset, but the sound didn't get reset. It get cloned I think(?) making it sounds weird
2. 2nd Police
You can force the 2nd police to fall of the pit

3. Protester stopped moving
Because of the blue flower I think(?) This caused the game to soft locked because the protester can't move anymore :'

Yeah, the sound bug is one I wished I had fixed before I uploaded.  


How did you force the second police into the pit?  Oh, wait I think I understand how you did it. You placed it where there was not enough space between the block blocking it over the hole and the flower, so it raised up and immediately went onto the block instead.. Interesting. I'll make sure to put more than one block next time. THanks for that!

I was concerned about the use of the blue flower, because it's supposed to be used to stop the cop with the gun from shooting the protester, but it also stops the protester.  And I'm not sure it's clear that the blue flower does that. Thanks for this bug though!


Really appreciate your feedback. Thanks!

Yep, I tried putting the blue flower as close as possible to the 2nd police and then somehow he jumped to the pit. It's hard to do, but it's possible. If the player put it too close, the police will just ignore it and turn around. But, if the player put it too far, the police wont jumped to the pit. To make it easier, you can adjust the player position by going to the pit first and then turn around. I think it will make the player get positioned on the 1.2 block(?) and then you can just put the flower at the right timing  when the police came.
I hope this will help you to replicate it XD

Thanks for the in-depth response. I'll check it out.

This is a great concept and watching the protester fly around is a lot of fun!

Occasionally without changing anything at the start the protester will fly all the way to the 2nd police person, don't know if this is a bug! 

Developer

Damn, that's a weird bug. Wasn't able to replicate it though but appreciate the feedback. Thanks for the the reply!
