Yeah its a bug that I didn't have time to figure out. The strange part is that this only happens with the orange and green platforms, the brown platform works as expected. Which doesn't make any sense, because they all use the same collision code =/
Great job! This is really well put together for the short time frame... Our submission isn't nearly as polished as yours. What method did you use for designing your rooms?
Thanks! Yeah I would have gone with something a little simpler if I knew I was going doing this solo. My team members bailed on me (for mostly good reasons). I'll check out your game after my kids go to bed.
I really like the concept of this game, having to balance your attention between the 2 different aspects of the game was a good design choice. My only relevant criticism is that its pretty tough. Have you considered having a screen after losing that shows the questions that were asked and the players responses? It could add a bit of humor to the game for the players to know how poorly they were at conversing. It would also make it easier to progress in the game, as players would get familiar with the questions/answers faster.
As TP3 said, the risk/reward aspect is good as it adds a little bit of depth to a basic game. Have you thought about letting the squirrel jump so that he can reach a nut that would otherwise cause him to hit a snowflake if he waited for it? Also, after retrying, I still had 2 nuts on me from the previous game and it let me add them to my score. Anyway, great work, keep it up!
