Hit space and start jumping on human's heads! This is I: Alien. Kill as much humans you can.

Good effort and promising.
Small bug or feature: You can still press "up" at a door during your death animation thingy.

Thanks! It's actually my first game ever, and also my first Ludum Dare! Looking forward to learning and improving my skills for the next compos. :-)

Hard game ;) But if its not hard enough, try passing all the levels while not killing a single human! =P
Also, it looks hilarious when the already dead alien still hops on top of the heads of some humans!

Kind of a cool goomba-murdering simulator, though I did sometimes get killed by being bounced.

Not bad for a first game, but unfortunately the colission detection seems to have some issues if you're landing on multiple people at the same time.

Good luck with your continued devving =D

Really liked your idea. Very original and fun to play.

I wanted to jump on so many heads! Then I jumped on two heads at once and died :(

I'd suggest setting the aliens hurtbox quite a bit higher than the actual sprite. It's way to easy to die to crowds, otherwise.

Fun game in general though.

Fun game with a difficult control scheme. I think that the controls work well though. I like the artwork and the subtle things like the blood effects.

I found the best strategy to be to skip your way to the door and get more people and then just hope to land on them. My best score was obtained after I died -- I kept bouncing around (no longer under my own control) killing humans left and right.

Overall I liked it!

It plays really nicely - the art is pretty nice too. It's a bit strange without music or sounds, but I understand.
MrFreakys25 Aug 2015, 17:40
levels are still same and can be skipped. But it's ok.

Simple yet very fun, good job for a first game ! ^^

no web/mac :(

sometimes it's hard to get what hit you, but I like the fact you still can kill a lot of people after your death.

Cool game with nice graphics, I felt quite bad at each human I jumped on! Good luck! :)

Congratulation for your first game. There is everything you expect for a jam game. The art is nice, lack some audio. Check BFXR next time to create sound !

not bad for your first game. you keep it easy and simple for yourself.now i would suggest that you improve the game with some more variation. like most platforms. but overall nice for a first game.
Aglavra25 Aug 2015, 19:41
It is simple, but fun. I liked to make a combo jumping from one head to another... especially after death)))
Deadpan-Gamez25 Aug 2015, 21:44
Really cool game, awesome idea great job :)
Sparrow25 Aug 2015, 21:52
Promising game, I would've liked some sound and music. Also most of the time you die when colliding with humans who overlap each other.

Much better than I thought at first. It's actually a lot of fun!
DrZanuff25 Aug 2015, 22:15
Hahaha, in the third level, I almost killed all humans after i was killed. My corpse remained jumping, squashing those poor souls. Good game!
LucJonny25 Aug 2015, 23:56
Its fun when you're already dead and still kills a lot of humans
Dizzyman57226 Aug 2015, 05:12
This was a good game, the graphics looked nice and the gameplay was simple yet moderately fun.
Cerberus26 Aug 2015, 05:54
it was very addictive, loved the controls and the graphics were fine. nice job.
Josh H26 Aug 2015, 18:03
Good take on the theme. It was fun jumping on the human's heads to take them out. More challenging that I would've expected too. Nice work.

Good effort for your first try.

Strange bug when I died, I seemed to bounce around randomly killing more people. Not sure if this was intended or not.

In some ways, the best part was dying and seeing how many people you could still hit. I could also see racking up a bonus for every person you hit without hitting the ground. Good work!

I found a bug when 2 humans overlapping, if i try to kill them, i die instead.
cynicalmonkey27 Aug 2015, 12:34
really enjoyed, would of liked a chain bonus for people killed without hitting the ground

I find this incredibly addictive. Silly but fun. I love the fact that you can keep killing them after you are dead and even advance to the next level if you land on the door. Like a way to redeem yourself by luck. I don't know if it was intended though :P Nice work for a first time!
