Bow Em' Down
Bow Em' Down is a game about accuracy with a bow and arrow. Back in ancient times, a bow was considered the peak of war technology. As it meant that the ability to kill from a distance was hugely expanded.
In Bow Em Down you have to shoot all the red spheres by using as little arrows as possible. This could be by using your super jump (spam space bar and you'll fly) or by shooting two at once. Or just doing trickshots and showing off to your friends.
The goal is search and destroy, find the spheres, destroy them, and find another.
Features
Fully physics based
Account for distance, and judge where you think the arrow will hit
Dev Notes
At the moment there isn't much on the art side of things. This will be updated in a few hours. You can spam space bar to jump as far you can and its a pretty bad exploit, but I'm gonna keep it in because it adds value to the game.

Maybe showing the arrow placed on the bow and animating the rope indicating the tension of it will improve a lot the shoot mechanic. Also with the first steps found difficult to jump until I realise you have infinite jumps.
And just by adding some moving targets the challenge will be more difficult.
Keep it up with the good work!
For me it's impossible to aim with this fucking bow (maybe I am not patient enough ^^)
next time try to make a web version, it's annoying when we are trying a lot of games to have to download one :p (but it looked good so...)
I could not climb those first stairs, the jumping is not high enough for it.
At the end you have to press ESC to get in and out of the menu which was confusing.
The hit sounds were off for me, they were like half a second late.
A little music would have made this even better.
Also: I used 76 of thr 500 arrows :)
Jumping in the game works strange...
Need some work and it may be fine little game)
