Fun little game! I included it in my Wowie Jam 2.0 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

I was a really fun game! I enjoyed the Intro Opening screen. A really responsive game.

Maybe you should add a feedback when the "Invincibility" is almost finished? 

If you have time to review my game I would be thankfull.

Good job!!! as others said!! more feedback like particles,camera shake would boost it greatly! Simple and solid idea,well done :D Also yeah! awesome intro! xD

Submitted

You got a boost from me for the epic intro haha, some jams with opening cutscenes didn't do it well but yours was very effective and man, the whole "passion, intentionality" flipping killed me. Gameplay wise, you can't really do anything until you happen to get lucky to have dung spawn and then you can actually play the game, so to speak. Also a bit more feedback elements would be nice. Death doesn't often feel like a just punishment for the player's mistake but rather an unpredicted sudden outburst, if that makes sense. Great potential for something super neat here!

Glad you liked the intro, I thought it was a funny way to get the game to fit the theme. More feedback would improve the game I agree, particle effects or something would look cool.

Thanks for the feedback!

Fun times~  I agree with other comments that the super mode needs an almost ending signal so you don't run into a bug right when it ends hehe.  Really cool game still!  Great job submitting a game to the jam, plz check out mine if you have time.

Really cool game! I like the sounds and storyline at the beginning. Nice aesthetic with the pixels and boot screen. Good work!

Submitted

I like that the "tutorial" is very clear.

Please take some time to rate my game.

Cool idea, just need something to tell you you're loosing your poop power !

Submitted(+1)

That was a fun game with a cool pac-man like mechanic, speeding up the game a bit and adding some invincibility frames when your power up runs out could be cool though. Overall very fun and simple.

Good game I liked picking up the golden poop to kill them pesky bugs! Check out my game if you get the chance I mean you are  a Caterpillar with a handgun what's not to like!?!

Submitted

I really liked the core gameplay, I also though that the movement felt really good! Some indicator as to when your "Power up" runs out would also be nice so you don't accidentally run into enemies! Overall, this is a really good entry!

Developer

I agree that bumping into enemies just after it ran out was frustrating.

Thanks for your feedback :D
