A very difficult game! A visual indicator of some sort might have helped a little. However the sound effects when you finally hit a pig is so satisfying that you feel that it was worth it =)
Also, on rare occations the pigs will fly to the sky, but I reccon this is a feature (if not then it should)
I like the pig art! A simple score would help a lot. Something like how many pigs can you hit in 90 seconds. Maybe have a visual indication of the shot angle? Either rotate the cannon or put a gauge on the side of it.
Well done for the second game ever, especially when done with a limited time. What I missed the most was an indicator of how much power my next shot will have.
I had a smile on my face the entire time while trying this game. 15-20 minutes passed and while I was still having fun, I wasn't sure what my goal was? Am I to destroy all the piggies? Also, just as a previous review said, a "power meter" on the tank/catapult/shooting thing would have been really helpful. I littered the front of the fence with my shots. =p
Seriously love the aesthetics of this. So simple and still communicative.
I literally (and I mean in true meaning of this word) broke out laughing when I hit a pig for the first time and heared this scream. I love how from time to time one of the pig just jumps to the sky. Cute entry, congrats.
I like the art style, and the scream is hilarious. A kill counter and shooting indicator would have been a nice addition, but this is a two day compo after all. Good job!
Nice job for your second ever game! I'm pretty sure though, you didn't make those pig dying sounds (i've heard it in like 20 movies). It's not a big deal, but i'm pretty sure using pre-made sound effects is against the rules. other than that, nice job on the physics and 3d graphics. Although I wish there was a score or some way to win or lose.
it is the famous wilhelm scream, I expected that almost everyone would recognise it and think of it as funny thats why I kept it. thanks for all the nice comments. I'm quite proud, I had two sick kids at home needed my attention so the total time I had was 6 hours :-)
This game could be quite fun with more feedback. I'd like to see an indicator of my position and a power meter. I'd also hope to see scoring implemented in the future. For your second game, this is quite a great start! Keep it up :)
I really like the game - very fun to play. I did have an issue, that my gun only seemed to reach two or three units in front of it, and when a Jumping pig landed on my shot my gun into space! :) Great sounds - and it has some fun potential. Keep up the awesome work.
It needs some better defined goal, IMHO - some score (points per pig or even how long you can keep the total number of pigs under some value), or a level mechanism.
