this game was really frustrating to play. the people died after being thrown even if they didnt get hit by a monster,and it was difficult to throw them down from a ledge. some checkpoints left you without people because they had to come down from the top.
the graphics were ok, the music was great, and the sound effects were immersive. i liked the bounce effects when the people jumped
Your game was played on my stream ( twitch.tv/ursagames ) for the second day of Ludum Dare streams - you can find the timestamp of your game here: https://goo.gl/N2rkr8
Oh man, those enemies are brutal! You did a good job on mood and were on point with the theme. The platforming mechanics were actually better than a lot of games I've tried so far (and good work on the Yoshi's Island style aiming system - works great). Overall, not bad!
Great stuff, @kobrar! The platforming took a bit to get used to (pretty good for Ludum Dare, tho) and it took a while to figure out the throwing mechanic, but I had a ton of fun once I got a handle on things.
The checkpoint system was a great call - make it possible to master the mechanics without getting frustrated by losing progress.
There is something disturbing and fun. The ennemies are particulary vicious, the game too. You are right in the theme. Atmosphere really work too. So you did a good job.
Great dialog, and pretty nice gameplay too!
Only thing I felt might have been missing would be the ability to roll the fat guys. Otherwise, this felt pretty complete.
I felt a teensy bit like a horrible person throwing them people, but hey. When you're the MIP, what'cha gonna do?
MIP foreverrrrrrr
