The Game
--------
You went out for a night of heavy drinking, but it's getting late, and you need to get back home.
You are hopelessly drunk and barely able to walk... quite unstable you might say. ;-)

Make your way back home before you succumb to your drunkenness.
Avoid all the drunk dwarves in the streets. They mean business!

Controls
--------
- W A S D or Arrow keys to move
- Often, random keys will show on screen. If that happens, press the shown key repeatedly until the receding bar is full again. Don't let the receding bar get to zero.

That start game button had me crack up a little, not gonna lie

ObsceneBard4 Oct 2021, 21:14

hahaha, its a good & fun game similar to 'get over it', its frustrating the player in having to keep track of all the things you gotta press. Add a 'distance' meter, online scoreboard and keep adding buttons until you reach 9 and you got yourself a solid steam game for 2$

The game is hilarious and well designed. Experience is similar to being drunk. Is it possible to go home ? Level is pretty hard even in four hands:)

Martin1834 Oct 2021, 21:33

Cool mood and interesting controls! The trasitions between screens felt great also!

robert184 Oct 2021, 21:35

Hahaha i guess quite some people had the idea to do something involving being drunk :D
I'm struggling to keep track of all the keys to press!

mactinite4 Oct 2021, 23:45

The effects & music were doing a great job at selling the mood. Made it home successfully! :smile:

Bhughes5 Oct 2021, 02:59

the effects and ui were a bit much but fun idea!

I thought i was drunk at the beginning of the game, JAJAJA. Very creative. Well done. In my opinion, the camera was too rigid. It could look better if there was a little more camera movement.

Was a fun little game. Maybe the arrow keys would have been a better choice, it was a bit of a cramp to press the buttons. Even though it may have been intentional, it was a bit annoying.
But otherwise a fun idea, with cool sounds and gimmicks and a nice little game experience.

Cedric86author5 Oct 2021, 17:25

@bensgames01 thanks for playing. You can use the arrow keys as well to controll the character. Now that you mention it we didn't mention this anywhere. Whoops, good input. I'll correct this in the description real quick. Thank you.

Not a really challenging game but a nice one overall

MetalFox Dioxymore5 Oct 2021, 22:38

What a strange game xD ! Not in a bad way though, but I really struggled at one simple thing : I don't use a QWERTY keyboard. Since you used WASD to move the player, I had to change the layout configuration in windows, but, doing so, I didn't know where the correct letters were located anymore... I didn't go very far, out of frustration ^^', but it's still a good concept for a game, and what I saw of it seemed nice !

Maybe you may want to take a look at the new Input System in Unity, that manages automatically the keyboard layout of the user =)

I enjoyed the great humour in this game. I found it tricky to control, but I guess that is very much by design and works with your take on the theme. One thought I did have is that if you want to raise the difficulty to the next level, you could include a negative penalty for hitting a key when it isn't on screen, as I found it was possible to button mash past the point the prompt had disappeared. But overall, this was a cool take on the theme :)

I enjoyed the humor and general aesthetic of the game kind of gave me SpongeBob vibes if that makes sense? One suggestion I would make is that sometimes the letters were a bit too easy too miss so maybe make them flash or make them appear a bit closer to center would make it easier to play. It was quite fun though great job!

JoeRenglish6 Oct 2021, 05:06

The vomiting sound was a bit much for me imo

OllieOA6 Oct 2021, 05:58

I am a little worried about how accurate the vomit sounds were 10/10

FlorianBalD6 Oct 2021, 07:20

Not gonna lie, my favorite part was to shoot in the drawves lmao, funny little game!

gmedley6 Oct 2021, 21:32

Ok this one gave me a good laugh! Love the goofy vibe, kinda wish there were more mini-games too! The moving title screen button killed me

topquark7 Oct 2021, 19:42

Great game idea, the moving start button was funny. The throwing up was a bit too much for us though tbh (but accurate!)

ChillerTyp8 Oct 2021, 11:40

LOL

cireneikual2224649 Oct 2021, 01:06

Funny game, became a bit tedious to beat it though, was playing twister with my fingers on the keyboard!

blobo9 Oct 2021, 20:10

A very nice and short game! I like the visual distorted swirl on the screen, and the mood you set it pretty funny. Cool! (I love how the play button on the title moves around, haaaa!)

LDJam user 26929310 Oct 2021, 18:21

fantasting vomiting soudn

kuggenhoffen10 Oct 2021, 21:12

Sound effects were fun, although they seemed to stop mid way. Maybe some randomisation in the walking direction would have brought a bit more difficulty :). Good job!

Sceef11 Oct 2021, 04:09

Nice job

Inokentii_Best11 Oct 2021, 18:22

I've never played games where buttons need to be spammed. It was fun)

Cedric86author14 Oct 2021, 20:29

@metalfox-dioxymore thanks for going through all the trouble just to play our game. I'm sorry i completely forgot to mention that the arrow keys work as well. I added it to the description now but in the game there is still nothing informing the player about this.

I'll definitely look into the new input system of Unity to make sure next time this problem will be taken care of. Thanks for the input.

One of the funniest games I played this jam

Fractale15 Oct 2021, 17:58

really funny game guys, any time for a beer guy. the game is a bit difficult to play. I had a lot of fun

Game_Coder2815 Oct 2021, 18:32

cool game lol! really funny and well made. good job!

DzejPi17 Oct 2021, 10:58

I haven't laughed this hard in ages. When my character vomited and fell into the puddle, I absolutely lost it. Fantastic sounds, gotta say, suspiciously close to the reality. Maybe you could add some random walking inputs to make it even harder to control. Great entry, the funniest one for me for sure!

ValiantSugar19 Oct 2021, 09:18

A very funny trash game. I think if you had 1 - 2 more days to finish it, it would be very cool!
