[ABOUT]
It's my first Ludum Dare!

When I saw the subject, I decided I wanted to explore two "original" aspects of the theme : crossover fiction (<=> connected fictional worlds) and social links.

The game is also a tribute to a specific gameplay in "The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening". I'll be curious to know if some of you noticed it. In fact, any feedback is appreciated!

I used Construct2, Paint.NET and Audacity.

Oh LOL. The ending is SO f'ing great. Laughed really hard.

Also, really sweet pixel art and music. Only thing I'd change is to use some pixely font for the dialogs that matches the rest of the visuals better, but besides that, a really sweet game.

That was certainly amusing.

I went to a bar with Harry Potter, Link, Hannibal, Batman, Robin, a bouncer named Jay, Lara Croft who appears to be on a date with Charlie Chaplin, the couple from Pride and Prejudice, and Harry Potter... and I made a name for myself for a mysterious boss.

11/10 would play again

NuSan25 Aug 2014, 17:14
Just perfect, short but surprising and funny. If only good old Lucas Art was still there, and not owned my a mouse ...
esayitch25 Aug 2014, 17:20
Very stylish and atmospheric, I liked it a lot! The only downside, if it can be called that, is the simple gameplay. But it serves the game well so it's not really a downside :P Ending was great!

Nice game using famous caracthers, but did not get the theme on the game :(
Liz England25 Aug 2014, 19:31
Loved this little game! This is the first time I've seen this interpretation of the theme (fandom crossovers).

Did it! That was fun! Nachos, champagne and some very fine guests. I like that Crossworld Club!

That blinking disco floor reminded me of some Larry adventure. Good choice!
AndyBrown
AndyBrown26 Aug 2014, 22:57
That was quite amusing. I liked your take on the theme; it was a very original idea. The writing was pretty funny, and it was cool to see such an assortment of famous characters in one game.

Simple but entertaining! I love your sense of humor :) That ending... mmm...
mrexcessive28 Aug 2014, 19:46
Hi there... First of all I laughed out loud at the final 'after ending' scene. Good job all around! Great to see Construct2 being used!

I loved the combination of jokes. Good plot, it has made me short.A great way to attach worlds. 5 for theme and humor

Love it. :) As a huge Batman fan... That was funny. :D
Simple yet fun game. Great ending. Good job :)
Rob Glen29 Aug 2014, 15:05
Like the humour, and it's definitely a unique take on the theme too! And the ending was pretty funny!
Otrora Games29 Aug 2014, 16:22
Too bad it's that short. But really funny indeed
jukimv198629 Aug 2014, 17:57
Very funny!!! it was sensaNACHOnal! :D
Pierrec29 Aug 2014, 19:00
The game is really nice! I wish it were more difficult though because talking to everyone once or twice is enough to get the prize.

Aside from that, both graphics and audio are good. And I like the theme interpretation a lot (maybe because it isn't that far from mine ^^ )
pansapiens30 Aug 2014, 00:32
Lot's of LOLs here - great work !
lkr30 Aug 2014, 10:32

I liked this a lot. Well put together and a funny mix of characters playing against type. That ending too! Well done. :)

Great idea for the theme! Well executed and polished. I really enjoyed it
badlydrawnrod31 Aug 2014, 17:50
Such a strange name for the game, but it worked really well. I was highly amused by all of the characters and the ending...!

Short but sweet.

Was quite fun to play, although the gameplay could have been made a bit more complex :)

Graphism is cool, but the game is too short

I'll also add my "woot! old-school Leisure Suit Larry!" vote. Fantastic execution: very funny, but also no way I could stop before the end!

chowee4 Sep 2014, 17:32
Not much to add except that this game is a great entry !! Except for the shortness of the experience I wouldn't guess that it is from a jam if I stumbled upon it by chance.

Really great work, the best compo entry I tried so far !

Tu as du talent, l'ami ! Continue ! ;)

That ending! :O Silly premise, but a solid start to an adventure game. Well done.
dadman11 Sep 2014, 18:20
Really nice sound design and artwork! Very cinematic look which I liked. I thought it was a jam entry when I was playing it!
Frankus
Frankus11 Sep 2014, 19:44
Really liked the game, it's fun to see how each character helps to get to another character. Loved the Batman/Robin segment. Good game!

jprogman13 Sep 2014, 04:19
Characters from different worlds... connected by items... fits the theme to me. Nice work on the fetch quest.
apiotrw13 Sep 2014, 14:48
Very funny mashup :D
Cake&Code14 Sep 2014, 21:21
The game art really reminds me of Earthbound for some reason! I really like the way you used the theme. It's definitely refreshing to play something new! I would love to play a longer version of this game that carries the idea through! Great work!
RawboSaurX14 Sep 2014, 22:43
Cool, man! I'm not usually a fan of putting well known characters together in weird scenarios, but this actually worked. It didn't overstay it's welcome either, which is good. 20 minutes of walking around that room would have been nauseating, but it was short and sweet. And that's what I like ;)
phaser15 Sep 2014, 02:55
Very fun game, Great sense of humor
ajopart
ajopart15 Sep 2014, 08:44

Really clever and overall a very funny game. You did a good job of mixing your franchises together, a very eclectic mix!
