Suri and Jeferex
First Ludum Dare for all of us !


Suri is a girl who likes to play with JefeRex, her GrowMonster toy. Some boys start making fun of her, and there she realizes that JefeRex is actually alive. All she need's to do is to get him in water and he will grow, allowing her to run and jump higher and he also attacks those who try to harm her.

* Step into the water to make "JefeRex" (the dinosaur toy) grow, allowing you to reach higher places
* Watch your water level, if it passes 10 "JefeRex" will get smaller
* Beware of the sand and salt on your path, for they dry "JefeRex"
* Get close to the bullys to let "JefeRex" attack them

The level is REALLY short, had to work on monday, no time to finish it :(

The game was made using the Unity Engine V.5, i've created the EXE file, and included it with the resources needed on a ZIP file that u can download

Our team consist of:

Edith Rios : Art and animations (mostly Photoshop)
Carlos Rabago : Sounds and Music (Audacity)
Andres Garcia : GUI elements
Anton Ortega : Coding (Unity3D, C#)

Hope u enjoy this little game

This was so cool. It took me a while to figure out when the balloon explodes but after that I marvelled at the level and the mechanics. The girl is so cute and the air pump idea rocks. Love it!

You forced me to learn the game's key mechanic with the level design and that was a really good thing since I didn't read the description. Kudos! I think I played it to the end, I didn't really get a reward or credit screen.

Thnx guys, the level is really short, i didn't had time to finish it (had to go to work today), but we are going to continue developing this idea during the next months

Great art and a cool central mechanic. The physics made it hard to move through the level for me. But good stuff!

Beatiful and colorful game. I love the soundtrack as well. Mechanics are working, the shame is the level wasn't longer.

Wow. I did not know what was going on at first, then I ran into the blue puddle at the end and saw the balloon blow up. So great. Excellent level design. Great artwork. Music could be better. Overall great job.

That was a delightful little game. I loved the artwork. Clever mechanic too. This could be a fun game to develop a little further.

Interesting mechanic and very very nice animations. The game feels very alive. The movement (especially jumping) feels a bit forced, might be because of gravitiy, but otherwise awesome entry! :)

Nice little game. Hope to see more of it in the future, because the level was a little short. Short but excellent! Thank you for your entry!

Wow! So cool! The visuals and animation in particular were very impressive- the way the girl would nervously look behind her as the dinosaur shrunk- and the gameplay was very solid and with a novel idea that tied directly into its narrative powering it to boot!

Wow, Newgrounds... that takes me back! Great little game and really impressive that you did it in 48 hours. Loved your take on the unconventional weapon theme

P.S. Thanks for the review

Took me a moment to realize what to do, since I didn't read any instructions or comments but then I got it - super cute and unique mechanic. Could see some really interesting levels and gameplay with this mechanic.

Great entry. Loved the art and music. Loved the pink dino! Would have been nice to have a bit more feedback with things like taking damage or attacking, but given the timeframe, this is a great achievement!

Such a great idea! I realy love your art style and the cuteness of your drawings. This is a great game!

I am impressed by the animation's quality, the audio, and overall coolness.
Definitely adding "GrowMonster toy" to my birthday wishlist !

You could improve the jump's physics and add extra SFX. But one badass feature would be to customize Jeferex. He's so cute.
