You, Sean Bean, a retired actor and hobbyist bean farmer, have enraged the locals by starring in too few movies featuring your own grisly death.

You must protect your farm with the only defence you have - your body! Throw yourself in front of the flaming arrows to prevent them from setting your farm ablaze!
In the ~~un~~likely event that your farm catches fire, you must hurl your body onto the flames to smother them! Careful that Sean doesn’t get too crispy himself though! Toss Beany into the well to cool him down and reduce his crispyness.

Any likeness to real-life actor Sean Bean is purely coincidental...

Click and hold the mouse to move (not) Sean Bean’s body.

I saw this page and all videos and get me exited. All is great and responsive but made me sad. Thanks

So much fun ! Great game, really funny, love the idea ! I think it was a bit slow at the begining until the arrow start putting my field in fire. It seems that the field doesn't lose HP, or maybe to slowly. Overall had a lot of fun playing it !

Oh my god this music! :D Perfect mood!
The game itself seems a bit buggy though. It was very difficult to trample the fire as most of the time putting Sean on the fire doesn't seem to do much.
But thank you for the good laugh! :D

This game is hilarious :) Keep the Sean Bean meme alive ! I have to agree, it wasn't really clear to me that I could Sean-slap the fire to put it out. ONE thing I would suggest, don't just despawn the arrows, leave them in Sean's body for a bit, it'd look hilarious :) Well done !

@ynk @javasaurus yep, definitely a fair call on the Sean-slap. Haha
Hopefully the trailer shows a little glimpse of how that mechanic works, but we definitely could have indicated it more clearly. Thanks for the feedback! :smile:

@karas once the fires get to their maximum size you should hopefully see the garden's HP decrease - we did that to make it feel a little fairer (maybe at the cost of a challenge? Not sure). If that's not the case though, I guess you've found a bug! :stuck_out_tongue:

Great beans protector!
Cool graphics. I would add something far in order to support the prospect. But it looks cool in general.
Game mechanics are simple, but what else is needed for fun? Maybe add some items that can be broken. Or modifiers for the character's clothes, to better put out the fire. But this is great for such a short time working on the game.
Good job! Good luck!

He got stuck in the well also music is great
lt-farfetchdauthor22 Apr 2020, 14:33
@sledzik it's a feature! :joy: I think a lesson I took from that was that Unity's polygon colliders are not the most reliable, even if they are quick to use in a pinch. In a game like this where velocity is based on the relative position of your cursor, I think that it's too easy to run into trouble with them. A good learning experience though.

Gave me a real giggle.

This was awesome. Once I got how to to the Sean-slap it was my solution to all things. Before I was just rubbing Sean beans limp body against a flame that wouldnt go out. I agree leaving the last x arrows in the ragdoll would have been really fun. Had a lot of fun kicking the hat around too. Great Job!
