Really love Dillard, he's the best video game fly I've ever seen. It's a neat concept to have to guide your partner around without accidentally squishing them, but it did end up getting a bit tedious at times. Unfortunately, I was not able to beat the level with the wasps, because of how beeg they were, and Dillard's apparent inability to navigate the smol tunnels in the center. I wasn't sure if there was something I could do with the shield-looking object in the center, but even if I was able to make it through the tunnels, I couldn't deduce a way to lure the wasp guarding the lever to go somewhere else. Good job with the music and the art!

I love the tim burton vibes of the art, great gameplay! Would love some more levels following the jam!

Nice concept and some challenging levels! I splat him one or two time by mistakenly click LMB :O

Maybe needs a bit more hand holding to learn the mechanics. I did figure it out and then it was quite fun :) Maybe you could indicate range at which he will follow you :)

Yep, could have done it better, by the time I realized that this was an issue it was already too late to change :). Good to hear you got the hang of it

Very challenging and fun!!  Cool how you have to lead the character around carefully -really fit the theme well!  Art and style was nice too -good music too!  Great job on this! :D

I got to the bees but didn’t stand a chance there. It was an interesting mode of leading or shoving the character around.

Developer (1 edit)

Pro tip: the shield can help you move the bees. Also theres one more mechanic on that level which you might or might not figure out in the process :). That level is a sandbox, although I do agree I could have designed it a bit better

Great idea! sometimes i had a very hard time making the soon to be king to go where i intended, but that’s part of the challenge, right?

Developer
