Katsaridaphobia by CluelessGames

[raw]
made by CluelessGames for LD32 (COMPO)
Katsaridaphobia(Noun)
-The fear of cockroaches

BIO

A game about the frustration of roaches. This game was developed to show my experiences in the past of dealing with cockroaches(Throwing Anything close to me at them :P). I made the game purely as a goofy concept. Its almost impossible and impractical(Not mention half finished and super buggy)! But if you are still interested here are some key features.

FEATURES

-A semi physics engine developed during the 48 hours.
-A strength system that limits the objects you can lift until you get stronger.
-Goofy physics.
-Cockroaches that breed every few seconds.
-Cockroaches that hide in furniture.
-Buggy glitched cockroaches.
-So many god damn cockroaches.

GOAL

Your goal(if you could call it that) is to kill cockroaches against the swarm of breeding.

CONTROLS <-- !!!FOR THE PEOPLE WHO SKIP THE DESCRIPTION!!!

Left Click = Grab furniture/objects
Right Click = Hits cockroach(takes multiple hits to kill)
WASD = Movement
Escape = Restart
Tilde(~) = Opens the debug graphics if you're so inclined


Enjoy! Make sure to give feedback on your opinions of it! :D

P.S Sorry for the bad art I had a lot of stuff to draw this game and kinda got lazy near the end.

Too many. Too. Many. TOO MANY!!!
Slightly shudder-inducing, but fun and a humorous take on the theme. Despite the vehemence with which I wielded my couch and coffee table, I was no match for the roach's Tribblesque rate of reproduction. Good stuff :)

Okay, the idea here is definitely fun, but a bit more feedback would be required. Smacking cockroaches doesn't feel like it's doing anything presently. Another possibility would be allowing thrown furniture to kill roaches too. This could be loads of fun with a bit more work!

A fun game to play :)
Although when 'roaches number hits 1000 performance drops quite a lot (at least for me).

I really don't understand how to play it :(
I can grab the object, but then what?..
Right mouse button doing nothing to them.
Also at some moment I was stuck at the wall because of something :(

Remember, next time multithreading XD.

The game is impossible, the cockroach breed TOO DAMN FAST D:.

Actually laughed a bit seeing thousands of cockroach spinning furiously under everything XD.

Need more polishing, but kudos for making it using SFML :D
