@mattdacat Yeah, that was what I was going for. I, myself am not sure if you can save all, but if you managed to save 2 then you completed the game in my book :)
@Quackqack Thanks! Experimenting with pixel art was one of the reasons I joined the jam this year. I started learning a couple of weeks ago - glad that you like it.
@kalshutein There is also W/A/S/D controls + mouse which might be a bit more natural (although the text on top only mentions arrow keys). Thanks for the feedback!
@wevel Yes, indeed! I barely had enough time to finish it as it is though :( I'm still new to pixel art and drawing all the tiles and sprites took awhile.
@pelicanodepico Right, I noticed that too. Also the sound "starts" a bit rough and then gets to a more acceptable level, but I think the lesson to be learned is to err on the quiet side with sound - if its any good people will just turn up their volume instead!
The general concept of the game is well chosen and has potential to be developed a bit more deeply. There seems to be no real way to know how is the level going to progress and as a player you just have to assume that you are going to die multiple times to find out. Overall, good work.
Audio is a little annoying but overall it's a good game. When I think of it's been made by one person, really nice achievement! I felt like my conscience being tested! :'D At first I wasn't aware that I should or could put people in the truck, I just left them right outside of the house. And the old lady is keep walking back to the house with tiny steps! :D "Nanny! Stop making this more complicated!"
Simple game, but it covers the theme well. I think the graphics are the strong point. It's a little hard to tell what some things are(ie. the babies), but it's a neat style. The burning sound needs to be broken up or replaced. The constant sound is a little much. Overall a decent effort.
