Ludum Club

Your role as the bouncer is to keep the club running smoothly and make sure you do not run out of space!

Do's :
Kick people out who begin vomiting!
Kick people out who are fighting!
Make way for new customers by throwing out the riff raff!
Click on fights or people vomiting to send the bouncer!

Don'ts :
Let people in who are below 21!
Let the club reach maximum occupancy!
Keep a steady flow of money by avoiding fines and
welcoming fresh faces!
ALL ASSETS BESIDES MUSIC WAS CREATED DURING THE LAST 72 HOURS WITH BLENDER AND UNREAL 4 SOME MATERIALS WERE PURCHASED

First time doing a Ludum Dare!

Instructions are short and to the point. It's easy to rank yourself against other players, and had me intensely looking at ids lol. The club setting and fighting were my favorite part, pretty fun overall.

Nice innovation, and simple gameplay, Not really my kinda game but i can see the effort that went into it and could see this being expanded or just clearly being a comedy game. Props to both of you for your first Jam!

Quite a fun game. Overall played nice, have a few very small pointers though:
- Bouncer can get stuck behind people
- Some music notes are REALLY big :P
- Puking people are really hard to spot compared to fighting people, so perhaps clearer puke animation?

I'm surprised at the number of kids trying to get in and bravely showing off their underage ID. Great idea, this is one of my favourite ideas so far. I like the multitasking and state of panic you can induce. I think you could have gone even further with forcing a minimum capacity or you lose or something. Another improvement would be to add slightly more indication when vomiting/fighting i happening, perhaps a sound would do. Well done!

Thank you i really appreciate your feedback and suggestions!

Really good idea, a very original game. I loved the fact that you made a game about multitasking, and even when I got used to it, I couldn't let my guard down. Maybe the puke animation could be improved, since I couldn't see any of them, and also as someone said, some music notes are really big, and didn't knew what was happening at the beginning. Also, giving more user feedback would be an improvement, sometimes I failed at the age check and I couldn't the negative consequences of it.

586M, that took a while, was that file size really necessary?
John Palmer14 Aug 2018, 03:08
Sorry, between overly high res textures and unreal it was big :( didn't have time to optimize in 72 hours EDIT: since this comment i have uploaded a new version which is 342 MB instead of 600MB

Cool game, it was good that you had to balance the two activities but I didn't really ever feel any added pressure from the capacity. Nice work!

I liked the concept, as it reminded me of papers please. I just wish you did a bit more with figuring out if they were of the right age. Maybe some mechanics like fake id check where you have to check the face of the characters. See if a fake id was done well, so many ways to make this a pretty fun game.

Needs more feedback on the lose state, boosting the art style would be good too! :smile:

I actually had a system where I'd snap a picture of the characters to do something like that, but it kept crashing whenever the UMG would try and show the image. Time being what it was I had to table it :(

Good premise, And honestly if worked on more, could be a very fun side game to play! Addictive gameplay, I think the age check should be a bit more frequent for minors, wasn't so keen on the big music note floating up obstructing my view though!

Fun idea! Adding some sound effects would go a long way to getting player focus on vomiting and fights. Thanks for bringing it by the stream!

A good game idea, the music should be improved. The graphics are good.
But our game is better)))
