Our Unconventional Weapon: Getting a song stuck in someone's head

The game is about someone wandering around listening to their music and whistling along. As they whistle they get the song stuck in the head's of people near them. When someone else gets your song stuck in their head it enrages them, turning them red, and they chase you down to hit you. The game is played using w,a,s,d or arrow keys. There are 3 levels and each has its own goals.

Notes:

All art is by k4rl0r (couldn't figure out how to link to his profile)

Nice game! Did you make the graphics yourself? Cool! The song actually got stuck in my head and I sang the song out loud. Nice job!

Graphics by my friend Karl who joined me in the jam, he drew everything over the course of the weekend.

This is amazing. I absolutely can't get enough of it, it's so fun to play. Great scores down the board.

This game is made really well - very polished. The graphics were quite fitting, and set a nice mood. I got stuck in between objects a few times, which was frustrating - but otherwise it was fun

Great game, fun, simple (i.e. perfect for Ludum Dare). My favorite I've rated so far.

Really nice take on the theme! The game is simple and fun to play, and the art and music come together and give the game a fun atmosphere. The only complaint that I have is some of the hitboxes seemed too large, resulting in getting stuck on some objects in the environment. Other than that, great job!

So many people are mad at me because I got a song stuck in their head! Really nice game! I enjoyed that it got harder the further you progressed in the game.

Damn it I can't get past level 2, and I tried 4 times, those icy lakes are tricky. Great idea, collision models could've been better at some places, in level 1 there was an opening between the bushes where I couldn't get through.

Nice game, nice entry. Good work!

Nice little game, but really hard to play! Had really fun with it! I like the idea of setting songs in heads and that the people run after you! It's a really nice game!

Fantastic concept, i thought about something similar, but couldn't put it into a real game idea. You found a great solution, fun, non-violent (almost).
Love it!
And you actually got at least one real life person infected with the song, hehe.
