A game about headbutting people who think they know better!

A and D or left joystick to move left and right
A button or space key to Jump
X button or K key to headbutt

That's it ! I wanted to do a much more developed game but didn't find the time. I'm actualy proud even though the game is a 1 minute experience.

The itch link doesn't work.

This was so much fun! Graphics, music and theme all goes together really well, and there was something super satisfying about headbuttnig enemies! :D
5/5 my dude, good job!

Music is way too loud. Had everything at 1 and it was still impossible to listen to

Mmh I figured that just tweaking audio on your system will do but apparently not, I'll try to take care of that, and believe it or not the volume of the music player is set to something around 0.7

Next time i'll just put a volume button ingame or something like that

It's well-produced but not that fun or appropriate to the theme. I can tell you didn't get the full time of the jam, but that's okay. With more time, this could've been really great.

Well I could not even get the game started - think I tried every button on my keyboard; any ideas?
Web version BTW

That is really weird... First time I ever heard of that. Press Jump or A button on a joypad to start, otherwise try dl a version of the game, maybe that will work @purpledartfrog

(It's a simple if(Input.GetButtonDonw("Jump") == true) so...)

Weird - Will give it another go

Lukas TAMAYOauthor1 May 2019, 09:27

If it still doesn't work I'll reupload an unbuged version of the start but you are the first one to have trouble with it ! Congratulation ?

Weird... Firefox did the trick.... chrome/explorer wouldn't work
Oh well - nice polished simple entry - I still tend to overscope a little and then end up not quite having the time.

Haha thanks, I tried to do a nice and simple polished entry so houray me. I still think it was way too short and I should have puted more stuff around just being able to move around, but that is my only regret. Otherwise I'm glad I did literaly everything on my own. It was a personal challenge

For what it's worth, I also was unable to get the past the start screen in Firefox, Chrome, or Safari (I'm on Mac if that makes a difference). I downloaded the Mac app and played through it as well. I really liked the song! I would also say not to worry about the length of the game, especially for a game jam. For me, I enjoyed having a simple experience that I could play through in one sitting without getting frustrated or bored. I liked the take on people commenting about wasting life and how that's a form of currency. Simple graphics, but they worked well for the mood of it all. Good work!
