Ludum Dare #28compo
You Only Get 1!
Participate in Japan's top rated game show: You Only Get 1! While on the show, The Host will present you with 3 tasks. These tasks range from squishing an orange to slaying a vampire. The catch? You only get 1 item with which to complete all 3 tasks!
Instructions:
- point n click
If you are wondering about scoring:
- each 'task' has a maximum score of 10
- each round has a maximum score of 30
* I did not get as much time as I would have liked to jam over the weekend. I was able to capture the look and feel of the game as I imagined it but content fell short in the end. If I had more time I would have created more items and more tasks!
EDIT: I did not realize until after submission that public domain music and sound weren't allowed and it's my fault for not fully reading the rules. Kindly mark me N/A for sound!

Thanks! I did not realize that we couldn't use public domain music and sound until my friend told me after submission :( My fault for not reading the rules.
The art was done in Flash and yes, the animations were done in Unity.

I had a lot of fun with this. You should really make a longer, full scale version outside of the jam. It was really entertaining, and I kept playing with it.

That's a great funny game! Not rating audio because of the source, but everything else is great! It's funny, innovative, and hilarious! The best score I got was a 29, but I think there is a bug. I got 11 points for stewing a strawberry. Not a big issue through.

I love his reactions to everything. And awesome use of the theme and a really neat mechanic.

I liked the general idea and humor of the game. I would have liked to see some more animations relating to the different tasks...felt as though most of them were just seeing the object being thrown at something

freezed by cucumber on orange..

Hilarious, and fits the theme perfectly :) Played like I was on the game show, that's the best praise I can give! Really polished overall.

Oh god this is fantastic. So funny. Such a cute and simple idea, but you executed it really well and it's a really fantastic take on the theme. Really well done!

i loved it, great work !

I liked the game a lot.
I think usually people either remove the music from their games or switch to the Jam instead of compo. It's hard to judge a game with music as if it was without music and in your case the audio adds a lot to it.

This was really fun, I liked the randomized rounds and it was fun trying different objects for different objectives and learning what works best for what. The art style and color palette was very fun and I think it fit with the idea of the game really well!
vallde16 Dec 2013, 21:37
lol pretty fun and random, it's awesome that bulls get angry when you throw them tomatoes but not when you throw the cucumbers xD
desmarkie16 Dec 2013, 21:40
So much fun :D
SerialVelocity16 Dec 2013, 23:57
Brilliant, love the comic-like graphics and the idea is hilarious

Is really fun and I like music so much :)

This was weird xD but so good.

This really captures the "crazy game show" vibe. Where else do I have the opportunity to use a shuriken to calm a baby? Fun humor and fast paced choices with entertaining consequences. Good work.

Feels like McPixel

Ow this is great haha! Really like the audio and graphics of this game

Funny concept and fun execution! Loved the music! Great job!

zkenshin18 Dec 2013, 20:22
Quite fun and funny. Played multiple times, love the guy in the corner.

MrTedders19 Dec 2013, 04:52
Lol wow this is a funny game. Well done!

mcapraro20 Dec 2013, 20:28
really funny and original concept
Xanjos21 Dec 2013, 01:46
Absolutely loved how you've captured the essence of zany Japanese quiz shows as part of the only one mechanic in the game. Some of the more stranger solutions to certain tasks were pretty amusing.
taocayo21 Dec 2013, 02:27
This is the funniest LD28 submission I've found so far. I also had a lot of fun guessing which item would work for each task. Did the Japanese come from google translate?

Danman991421 Dec 2013, 15:48
@taocayo Yes I did!

lightsoda22 Dec 2013, 01:48
Love the concept, it has a nice style to it.
Even though I can't rate you for audio, I felt the music complemented the rest pretty well.
I do feel it's lacking a bit in the gameplay department, sometimes you get to interact with the object, like feeding the fire, and in others you don't. Maybe it could be more interactive in the scenes.
25 points was my best.

Holy shit this is amazing. Really intelligent use of audio too.

stigmawall23 Dec 2013, 19:49
ohh the music is in my head... THE MUSIC IS IN MY HEAD!
Ahahaha, funny entry, I really play it a lot of times.

Hah. Nicely done capturing mood in the menus, interstitial screens, and brevity of the interactions. Good mix of activities, but I kind wish there were more.
Kind of a big issue: while trying to squash the orange by hurling the cat downward at it, I seem to have sent the cat through the table, never to return. It seems my only options then were to watch the orange and endure the music or reload.

Wow. Real good. Would've rated better in fun, if squishing the orange behaved more sonsistently.

Quiz Flags is a fast paced flag trivia game that will help anyone learn the flags of the world and the countries and continents they belong to. http://ultrafreewaredownloadingblog.top Youll perform stunts and show off your driving skills.







What's really cool about this game is the humor and the interpretation of the theme though. It's funny and it works perfectly. I was extremely discontent with the theme, so I am doubly happy that others got creative results with it.
So - you might be short on content, but that's fine: What you have there is fun, original and on the point. Great job!
PS: The game show music was a great choice, but - uh, it's not really allowed in the competition. You are only allowed to include content you produced yourself in the 48 hours.
PPS: What did you use to make the vector art? And I guess the animations are made with Unitys animation system?
