No, seriously, it's my first Ludum Dare Game ever. It has been harsh and everything, and at the end of the 48 hours I had the result you'll see if you dare to download the game. But I learned a thing or two, and I am a little proud of myself, even if the feedback of the game is unexisting, even if I putted the sound effects in total panic 20 minutes before the end of the 48 hours, etc etc.

LEAVE ME A COMMENT IF YOU PLAY THE GAME, FEEDBACKS ARE MY PASSION

ABOUT THE GAME :
You'll have to run through a city in despair, filled with trashbins, drug addicts, and terrible families doing barbecues. The cops are behind you and want you cuffed, so you have to run... But you know that you're a video game character, and you'll have to die sometimes. So you say Carpe Diem, Yolo, fast life and all that kind of stuff and you go nuts on your city.

You can move, jump on rooftops or street lamps, make childrens cry, get stuck by rain gutters, steal rasta dude's botanic herbs, and see a game finished much too quickly and being glitchy, with a terrible pixel art and sound design by a kid who master nothings for the moment (but with love, and a homeless protagonist) !
The goal is to make score... yes, innovative, I know, so I suggest to you to play that with pals so you can rant about the quality of the game in group.

But the fact is, even if you're homeless, you don't have superpowers : you'll ahve to eat to survive. But you only have rubbish to eat, stealing barbecue's are rare... The more you'll eat, and consume drugs to stay alive, the more you'll lose life and you'll be hungry later ! So, you know what to do... Eat rubish and consume fancy green liquid & funny plant to cover the side effect of those same products ! It's not hell, it's Terry's paradise !

Have fun ! ♪
