Oops! No Floor!

Very silly 👍

The elephant model is a high point. I like this game, i'm familiar with something similar in Minecraft and Fall Guys. Controls worked well for me.

@chomby Oh no way! I had no idea Fall Guys already had something like this. That game is kind of an inspiration in terms of where I'd like to take the game in uh.. like a really long time when I have the resources to give it a lot polish. hahaha glad you liked the elephant. Thank you so much!

@khaotom Hahahaha, lol yes.... It is... thank you

Looks awesome! Is your player character compatible with minecraft skins? 😇

fun concept! reminds me of fall guys also. it would be fun with a group of friends.

Fun and silly! I loved the elephant in the room

@wouter52 Thank you! That's an excellent question. At the moment, not explicitly, but it seems like such an obvious thing to do. Since I was aiming for Compo, I didn't want to mix in other people's assets, but in the future, it seems totally reasonable.

@ntmalichi hahaha thanks! That's what I was going for! I almost forgot about the elephant until really late; and it's one of my favorite parts now.

@dblazer63 Thanks, D! Yeah I can't believe I've actually never played Fall Guys, bc it looks so fun; and it's totally a source of inspo for the future. I think figuring out design-wise how to go from the very blocky look it is now to something a bit more "polished" later is a goal, but also I feel like a lot of Minecraft ppl could be interested so I want to keep that in the back of my head.

Well done on the elephant, it was fun to play. I don’t really see how it fits the theme, but it was enjoyable nonetheless, so well done!

@tasakasama lol I was just going for chiptunes, old computer and blocky graphics! Thanks!

Reminds me of spleef! The enemy player doesn't seem particularly smart, haha. If I wait long enough they tend to walk off the edge on their own. It'd also be nice to get some reward for dunking the elephant in the water.

Lol honestly I had way more fun with this than i should have...it reminds me of this old N64 minigame in Kirby 64 where you try and make each other fall off by destroying the blocks underneath.

The theme seems not very present to me though, is throwing snowballs the old tech?

@henk Haha, honestly I tried to not make the opponent too hard. I have sliders to make it much tougher, but I wasn't sure what it would be like for the average player. I feel like the rule of thumb is that if the difficulty feels right for the dev, then it's too hard for players, but I was honestly just guessing.

Haha: elephant dunking bonus: Noted. Thanks for playing!

@william-corrin LOL glad you enjoyed it! Haha re: theme, it seems like you're not the first to feel that way! Apparently chip tunes, a retro computer and blocky, low res characters wasn't enough. Guess I should have been more literal. Thank for playing!

It’s strange that snowballs break through the floor instead of pushing objects around. The bots here aren’t particularly bright. Overall, it’s fun to play—an interesting project for a game jam.

It's fun! I love it!

Fun game! Reminds me of the old days on Minecraft minigame servers. Pretty nice all around.

oops, no floor

@maxxxmax Yeah, fair enough. Maybe snowballs should cause a bit collision action/reaction. Noted! Thanks

'Duderpants vs Mr Crankypants' is a great way to announce a snowball duel. I like the cool blue checkerboard and simple blocky characters, and having the snowballs remove the floor makes the arena part of the joke!

The elephant amused me.

It's a fun game—it reminds me of the mini-games on Minecraft servers—but sometimes the opponents just fall off the levels on their own, so it's unclear how you won (I only beat them 3 or 4 times myself; the rest of the time, they just fell down on their own 😅).

Solid jam experience! Simple, intuitive, and very well put together. Left full ratings across all categories!
We’d really appreciate it if you could test out our game too when you have a minute! Keep up the great work!

the elephant model is genuinely the best thing in this game, i laughed out loud when i saw it. the snowball fights are janky in the best way and the whole thing has a really fun energy. i saw you mention fall guys in another comment, are you planning to keep working on this after the jam? would love to see more maps and more ridiculous characters.

I liked this graphics, nice work!

@ernar Yeah, you have a good point. Out of all the parts of the opponent AI, the part that controls their ability to pay attention to staying on the blocks probably needs the most work. They seem to be falling off a little too easily. It's slightly complicated under the hood, since I'm not letting the AI "cheat." They actually have to look around to see where they're physically located, so that ironically can make them dumber. But it forces the AI to look around and give them more personality. But tbh, when I'm playing, I lose in dumb ways just like a bot all the time 😂😂😂. So figuring out the balance here is clearly an open question. Thanks for the feedback! Thank you

@nursultan Thank you! And yeah, no problem! The graphic for your game is already making me laugh! I'll take a look shortly.

@perrarancino Hahahaha, glad you liked it. That was kind of the vibe I was going for. Yes! I'm going to keep working on this as I can. I've been wanting to make this for a while. I made a very very crappy version years ago, so this is much better already. So I just tried to shoehorn the LD theme into my game as best I could 😂 Haha, yes, I already started brainstorming on all sorts of insanity. I should probably keep some kind centralized way of communicating with people. Thanks for the kind words! I appreciate it!

Here's my Youtube channel while I come up with something better:

This was great! Simple and fun! Lol'd when I saw the elephant, second time to "Mr Mustard has found his way to the water" hahaa! 😂 Great job!

Loving the whole idea of the floor disappearing when being hit. It really adds more tension, while the multiple layers keep the game going a bit longer. The elephant is obviously awesome! Great game!

Haha, at first I didn’t get why the snowballs weren’t doing anything, but once I figured it out, I loved it

It’s a funny, simple spliff, though I didn’t quite understand how the game relates to the LD topic. But still, it’s funny.

That's minecraft spliff game?!

I did not expect to like this... but I really did ... so easy to understand and a simple and fun gameplay loop. Good job with this. Love the elephant 🤣

it was fun to play, i don't get it about the elephant, what is the purpose? i think it would be great to play this in multiplayer. or at least add few more bots.
