Really fun game! It's an interesting way to approach the theme. One thing I did miss was having powerups or a way to have more than 3 dynamites at once, but it was still great.

Very interesting idea! Where did you get the participant names (are they made up or did you use real world data)?

Cool graphics, i really liked the perspective, congrats!

I get the names from the LD30 and LD29 results, and many of the posts during the jam including some text that they say in chat.
Have about 380 user names, but show only 250 in game

Nice, though I don't think I'd go to a real life gathering with you :P

Fun game! The controls feel kinda sluggish though. Wish I could run around more quickly. And the other guys should try to fight back, it's only fair. :)

This would be great multiplayer where you try to kill other players but you don't know who is bot and who is player. Good job

Well interesting game and it didn't make me feel good either, also movement is a bit slide-y feels like your on ice

thanks guys.. I will post a PostMortem later and explain why I didn't improve the game, the problem wasn't only time xD

You can use this game for the next LD for real time tracking of the jammers :p

Haha, so that's how you do it. A bit barebones, would have been more fun with powerups of some sorts, but still, it was fun as it is too. It felt SOOO satisfying to get lots of kills with one dynamite, so if that's what you were going for, well done!

Yeah THAT'S how you win a game jam! Creative and surprisingly fun, would be better with more responsive controls.

It's lovely to see games that celebrate LudumDare itself! :)

Looks simple, but actually quite fun optimizing placement and movement with the high inertia. Go team haxeflixel!

Neat entry, super unique compared to the other games. The mechanics are very simple though, it'd be cool if there was a bit more to do and the controls weren't as floaty. It'd also be really interesting if you could somehow fill it for the current jam's entries.

"I'm in!" ~ saying this is the new death warrant ahah :DD.
i found your game very humorous and fun, and I find particularly awesome that you got the names of previous LudumDarers and text that was actual said :D nice entry!

This is pretty hilarious. Using real names is kind of crazy and ingenious. Nice job, creative work!

Interesting idea, silly and kinda fun. At first I had no idea what or who i was controlling, and I nearly blew up my character due to the slow acceleration a couple of times :)
