Ludum Dare #32compo
Testosterone Man
So... the magician at your circus was performing one of his most sophisticated tricks.
Everything was going alright, but well, it seems like the performance was also unluckily similar to some kind of demonic ritual. Maybe it was the tarot cards. Or maybe it was the slained goat. Who knows.
The thing is, he has been kidnapped by the demon, and you, with your incredible circus-like manly power and pure testosterone as your weapon, will have to rescue him.
Sorry about the music mistake! :(
The music is not mine. I realized too late that I had to compose it myself. I would udnerstand if you vote it negatively. Anyway, I didnt take the audio category obviously, and u can play it without sound perfectly!

Pretty fun, but difficult until you've played for a while.

Neat idea, I enjoyed it. Good job!

ChrisGaudino20 Apr 2015, 03:25
Pretty fun, if a bit difficult. I liked the idea of presenting the instructions as needed on the map as a tutorial.

thx to everyone!
"ito123456789" I know :( I think I found the perfect music for the game, but it was not composed by me, so I would have felt dirty if I get good scores on Audio category :P
Thx anyway!

Though it didn't bring anything new in terms of gameplay to the table, and it was kind of unwieldly, (It feels like the acceleration on the x axis was just way to high, if there even was any), it was funny, and it had some nice audio too. (Why'd you disable audio ratings...?)

Very cool. Loved the restriction on shooting direction.
Awesome job!
Awesome job!

Jacketsj, I had to disable it because it wasnt composed by me, so it would have been weird :P

Good job! Nice entry.

Fun. If I get hit by an enemy I usually end up stuck in an endless die loop. And I never managed to climb walls. Fun music and graphics though.

Ok so today i learned that testosterone is blue :-)
Fun and challenging. Nice one !

Fun idea! I found it a bit tricky to actually hit the bats.
camlang21 Apr 2015, 07:37
I like it. Need a little more effects for brutality)

Teesquared21 Apr 2015, 08:01
Fun game. You added a nice twist and humor to a platformer to make it unique. If you are still suffering low T after playing this one, give my game a try (Dungeon Balls ;).

Pixel Heart22 Apr 2015, 01:44
Ahaha! You win for the character design. You have all my stars!
Sorak8622 Apr 2015, 15:01
ty! :)
farnsworth222 Apr 2015, 17:51
Well, that was a little strange. It was a funny concept, but the platforming and art could use some work. More background textures would help it from feeling so same-ish, and it's annoying when a bat gets under you and lifts you back up the screen.
Sorak8622 Apr 2015, 19:39
yeah, I kinda lacked time for more textures (or character design, whoever beat the game will get it ;))
and yeah, I initially set the bats knockback pretty high, but then it felt so funny that I refused to set it lower, so it became a feature :P
thx for the feedback!

HA! Testosterone as a weapon. Classic :) Well done!

Pietro Ferrantelli27 Apr 2015, 14:08
A fun game with a nice use of the theme. The name of the game and its concept made my day ! ^^ Nice job.

Liked that you use your testosterone to turn the bats into big balls that you kick around. Pretty funny concept :)



I would recommend downloading and playing at 1600:900, but the web link works fine also!
