Play as Ralph! Using his trusty old hammer... working for Construction-O. Hope he doesn't get replaced by AI.
Objective
- Hammer all the nails completely to go to the next stage. (Can be hard to tell, but it sounds different). You can see how many nails are left in the upper corner. - You can pass to the next level with any rating above a D. (Only an F fails. Then restart to try again).
Controls:
- WASD/Arrow Keys - Move - Spacebar, Up Arrow, W Key - Jump - Space, Space...Up, Up... or W, W - Double Jump - Mouse Click - Hammer Tap - Mouse Hold/Release - Hammer Heavy Slam - Esc - Pause Menu/Options/Restart Level
You can also use a controller!
- Joystick - Move - A Button - Jump - A, A - Double Jump - X Button - Hammer Tap - Hold X Button - Hammer Heavy Slam - B Button - Pause Menu/Options/Restart Level
- Skewed a tad too hard. You have to be too accurate with the current hitboxes. - I wish I had added a more obvious way to see when a nail is all the way in. You have to hammer all nails in completely before it goes to the next stage. It can be easy to miss some because of this. - Kind of wish I had made a button you hammer to end the level. 😬 And you just get rated for how well you did. Finding all the nails can be a tad annoying. Especially if one isn't all the way. - If you get stuck, or the level doesn't end, make sure the nails are all the way down and nail count is 0. - Sad I didn't get to finish some stuff. Like hammering crates and barrels... or other characters. 😏 🔨 🐘 🤖
Really charming entry! Love the visual direction and the retro vibes, fits the theme like a glove. Solid work for a jam, left full ratings! Best of luck!
I really like the animations on the player, they feel really nice.
The games nice and simple without being too simple, I like the gameplay too
The one feedback I'd have is some way to reset the level if you mess up (maybe there is one I missed?) cuz that was the only thing that sometimes got frustrating in the game for me. I'd might misclick on the first nail and I really didn't like that (even if it was not too bad a mess up)
@thanatosisanoob thanks! that's a great note. I added a pause menu where you can restart from there for that reason... but in testing it on browser, it's a bit clunky i realize. 🤦 (Since it uses the Esc key, that also takes you out of fullscreen). You can also use B button on a controller... but that's also not easy. Maybe I should have included it on a hotkey. Or given you the ability to pull out or reset a nail? 🤔 😅
I should have made that way easier. But if you restart the level, it should skip the dialogue and stuff so you can try a better score etc.
@smerdyaisaurus ha! yeah...... I think I skewed the build a tad too hard... 😬 😰 I wanted it to be funny, but it's so finicky. You have to be stupid accurate to get it straight. And have no easy way to tell how close you'll be.
I think the hitboxes are just off slightly on bent nails too 😢
Ralph leaning into that huge hammer in the GIF has a lot of character haha. I like the difference between a quick tap and committing to a heavy swing. A little visual change when a nail is fully down would help make the objective easier to read.
If you have a moment, I'd appreciate a rating on my latest game, Robot Workshop.
Beautiful graphics and hilarious animations! I absolutely loved it. I may have hammered in WAY fewer nails than I would've liked, but every single miss made me laugh hahaha! Had a great time playing this. Really fun game, amazing job!
