Eliminate ghosts by using dog squeaker toys before time runs out.
Squeakers never last that long (especially with my dogs), so why should they last any longer in this game.
You play my late dog Mac, who loved squeaky toys.
Controls

About
--------------------
Created using Phaser and CoffeeScript. I failed to make the Compo deadline, so i'm submitting to Jam instead. This was also my first attempt to use CoffeeScript and Atom editor. It felt more like Python than JavaScript, but I hate the lack of first class tooling.
The Squeak sound effect used in the game is an actual recording of Mac squeaking one of his toys.
* Note: There are just sound effects -- no music. Sorry.
Cool idea. The sound effects scared me half to death first time I heard them! When you're holding one toy and you run into another they swap forever and it creates a crazy slot machine kinda sound. The mechanic is well done and clear. Some threat to the player would make it even better!
Nice game, simple, fun, but a little short, an infinite game increasing dificulty should do the job, also the controls are a little rough. Love the gameplay. Good job!
Nice game and idea! The weapon switching could maybe get some more polish, when I had a weapon equipped and went into another one it rapidly switched back and forth, making a lot of high noise. Otherwise, enjoyable game :)
I found the coffee script + Phaser combination interesting, I have been thinking about trying that out myself. Do you think they worked well together?
@Jakob37 Yes, I think Phaser + CoffeeScript worked well together. I had to debug the JavaScript generated code in Chrome Dev tools instead of directly debugging the CS code. I also wasted some time getting Browserify + Coffeeify + Watchify working in a smooth workflow.
Haha, how did you come with this?! Some things were not very well done like changing weapons creates a noisy sound.. and you can push these items out of your window, dunno if thats intended.. anyway fun concept.

The automatic swaping is strange and some animations would be great...
