Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous.

  • The design document is well laid out and very clear. Inspiration for the game is clearly referenced. The game's mechanics and design are included with examples and artwork. The concept of the game is hilarious. Anyone who's ever had Legos knows how sneaky, dangerous, and painful they can be. I also like the idea of laying "traps" rather than a direct attack, a different approach from a lot I've seen. Things noticed while playing: - The little hop-walk the brick does is absolutely adorable. - Seemed kinda weird to be able to pass into a foot to lay down right where they were already dancing. - Hilarious and satisfying to put the brick in place and watch the pain animations. - Would be fun if there was a point counter, or challenges like "catch 5 people without being found" to work towards as moving around the house. - The pain animation is hard to notice from some camera positions. Additional movement of the foot itself would help to know if you were successful in causing pain. - Background music is great, but covers up most of the other sound effects.

Summarise your game!
Made for the Pirate GameJam 2025 for the theme "You are the Weapon".

You are a Lego brick on a mission to get under human feet and cause unfathomable pain. Set in a house party, traverse through the crowd and unleash feet pain onto the human while exploring the house.

WASD/ArrowKeys - Movement
Mouse - Look
RMB - Lay flat to poke human feet

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
A lego brick, when stepped on, induces a lot of pain. Something that has been experienced by many players. In the game, the player is put in the boots of a lego brick and enables them to induce the same pain onto others.

Really nice theme interpretation haha, i saw your post on discord and i knew had i to play your game. I felt it lacked some feedback when people are hurt, and maybe some kind of objectives to feel like there is a real goal to the game.

I sensed a potential in the idea but couldn't extend it further. And that includes more meaningful game mechanics and objectives, like you've mentioned. The idea felt too good to pass up on for this jam and wasnt sure when I'd get that opportunity again. Glad to have participated and learn new stuff!
