Ludum Dare #32compo
Emotional Golf
Drop bombs on the population to lead them to the safe house. Love bombs bring citizens together, fear pushes them away. Try and do this in the least amount of moves as possible! (hence the golf)
To drop a bomb, click either the love bomb or the fear bomb, then click on a blue "citizen" or on the safe house.
You can Finish the level at any time, but check out the par time if you want something to beat! Also, it is possible to finish every level with 0 citizens left (although hard).
Feedback always welcome. Let me know what you think!

Very interesting idea, I had real attachment to those little guys hh,a cool thing that would have added to the experience is if I could see the range of the bombs or control their strength. I like the mechanic, you have to leave someone behind kinda thingy. :)

Nice unique take on the theme. I don't think I've ever played a puzzler that worked exactly like this one. Shame that is not very responsive. Also it seems like a bit of luck once you've got just one left to try to get it home using fear bombs over and over.

Definitely an interesting little game. Pretty cool little mechanic, but it gets rather annoying after having only one guy and needing to use fear bombs XD

The game is very fun, and that's coming from someone who hates golfing games.
Great work!
Great work!

Ok it'as a little hard to find out how the game works, but, after gettinf in the mechanic, it's nice! I like the way you got the theme! Maybe a little tutorial would be great but in the overall is nice! Well done! :D

Fun idea! I liked the bomb animations. I think the mechanic might have been easier to use if you could drop bombs anywhere, but maybe that wouldn't fit the theme of the game as much. Good job!

It would be nice to have a way to quit the game.

It's an interesting idea! You should be able to place the bombs anywhere rather on people directly so you might be able to get a larger range of people. Also I love the game name baha

Very fun idea.

Not a bad concept but there's just too little feeling about how the bomb affects the people to really have any strategy in it, so it feels mostly like chance.

Dropping bombs for your safety. Like irl? :]
This is a bit hard but cool idea...

It was really fun to try and get the par times. Great use of the theme and abstracting out a typical weapon to something that fits well in a golfing game. Overall really enjoyable!

Interesting. It's like billiards... and putt-putt... lol
Cool entry.
Cool entry.




It's an interesting idea even if it's a little rough around the edges
