just beat it, was fun
Thanks :)
Very nice game! I really liked the graphics and stone throwing mechanic. Some sounds and music would of been nice, but during game jams sound is probably a thing we do last.
Great game! I would appreciate it if you would check out our game!
Thanks man!
Pretty cool game. Some sound however would make it a lot better but I'm sure it was hard with the time you had. The graphics are great. One bug I had was the health went to -1. Other than that, great job! I'd love it if you could check out my game!
Thanks man! Sadly I didn't have time for sound. Thanks. I used lot of time on the graphics. I can easily fix the health glitch. I will also check your game!
It looked like a quick game that you made. I was slowly dying into finally reach -1
That's exactly what it is. And yeah. The health will go negative because i didn't set an stop to how low it can go
If this was made in Unity I would totally help you out man. Good concept though
Thanks. I dont use unity because i dont understand code at all. I want to learn it but it feels impossible for me to learn it.
I think I loaded in as the wrong character, I was the dweeb instead of the chads beating on that little twerp. Aside from that though, the game played exactly like one would think; the bullies win due to their superior intellect and physical prowess. Their pure stature keeps them from being destroyed by the dork's petty rock throws and at the end they get the lunch money like they deserve.
You are supposed to be the one guy that throws rocks. You have to get to the end by throwing rocks at bullies and then pick up the lunch money they stole from you. And then get back to the start and thats the game.
I think this could be a good game with a few balance tweaks. It seems to me like your rocks don't hit quite as powerfully as I would like. I also think the movement is a little slow as well as the collision shape for the player. The bullies just seem to powerful to defeat easily or consistently. You could try slowing them down so they are less fast than the player.
yeah, I am going to speed down the bullies after the judging. And thanks for the support man :)
This was pretty fun, but i feel like it would work a lot better if bullies only took 1 hit, or maybe starting bullies took 1 hit while later ones could take 2. Because of this, I always ended up being forced to take a hit at the start. Also, this would probably feel a lot better to play if you could pick up stones if they hit walls, since when I accidentally did that, it was hard to face the bullies with only 1 stone.
The art was great! It felt like the player was actually in a school, and the pixel art clearly represented everything.
Thanks man. I used alot of time on the art and it means a lot to me! There is some updates i will make after judging. I will make the bullies slower and progress on the bullies (for 1 and 2 hits). And i will probably make it so you can pick up stones that hit walls too.
