Trashbag by DopplerInteract

[raw]
made by DopplerInteract for LD32 (JAM)
You are Trashbag.

How to Play:

Pick up trash. Throw it in the air. Smash it with your tyre iron. Destroy wasters.

Left, Right / A, D to move.
Left mouse button aims your tyre iron. Hold to power up. Release to swing.
Right mouse button tosses trash in the air.
Right mouse button picks up trash if empty-handed.
Hold / move left mouse button to power up and aim your tyre iron.
Space to Jump.

The City is choking on a quickly rising-sea of yesterday's phones.

Electronics cluster in the streets. Wasters endlessly generate trash.

Take your tyre-iron and cleanse the world: Destroy the trash, and use it to turn the tables on the wasters.

A thick phone to the face will swiftly put an end to the cycle.

Love the graphics. The toss-then-smack-mechanic was fun once I got the hang of it. Nice work!

Good fun, mechanics were nice, moving seemed a little unresponsive though. Good job! :)

Loved the art style and the comical blasts of text after 'Cleansing' the trash. The physics system and particle effects made for a very satisfying game feel.

Nice game! It reminds me of my first game jam game, also with vigilante theme. I like the feedback when I hit something.

Amazing art direction and well-executed idea. A good example of gameplay that you can discover through experimentation. As a minor point, the in-game quit button did not work, though the game exited normally with closing the window.

This game is interesting, simple to control, more strange to the directional pad to right it gets stuck and runs without even for not pressing, congratulations

Nice Artwork and a good idea but the movement is buggy on the linux version.

Cool idea. Controls were a bit finnicky, but overall worked, and it had a nice look to it.

I really like the art style here. The movement controls are odd though, as the character seems to keep moving in a direction only when you tap and let go of a movement key once, instead of changing direction or stopping moving in real time based on the player's input. Making those controls more intuitive would go a long way. Nice work!

Fun game, liked the art a lot. The controls were a little wonky, but otherwise a great idea!

Crazy game. I like it but the controls are crazy too.
You get moving at random it seems.
Thanks for sharing.

Not very easy to control, but the throwing lechanic gets fun, once you get the hang of it

Kinda janky controls-wise, but it had this trance-like effect on me that made me keep playing until I cleaned up the town. Took me 10 minutes to win though!

The movement was very buggy for me and I could only do actions while facing left. Also, I found the fact that all the enemies were the same model as the player to be confusing.
