For the Blood by henriquejas

[raw]
made by henriquejas for LD29 (JAM)
A flea running beneath the surface of hair.

Made by me, my brother and a friend.

Controls are: Up/Down/Right or W/S/D

No sound, but it's one of the first things we will improve, along with a mobile version.

Nothing like some blood to liven up a flea. Wondered about an end goal, but you do note this is simply version 1. Neat!

Fun game, looks awesome! The web version doesn't seem to have any sound.

Fantastic graphics; kinda wish there was also sound, but oh well. The cam is basic but well done, my only complaint really is that the bounding box on the fingers seems a bit large; I died a few times when I was near a finger but didn't actually touch it.

NICE GAME! I love the art and the game is hilarious. I did notice, that you wouldn't die even if you reached the death icon on the right side. I thought I was suppose to explode or something.

I liked how you guys used the theme, but I missed a real goal. There is no difference getting the blood or not so I got bored because the challenge was only on my head. Awesome graphics!

Great visuals. Would love to see a ramp-up in the challenge - fingers that move back and forth, smash down from above, etc.

(This person appears to have an unusually large number of fingers at some points... perhaps he or she is attacking with both hands?)

Thank you all for the comments.

True enough, we also think that we need to increase dificulty with time, include more enemies/obstacles and increase the importance of blood (as of now, being low or high on the blood bar just changes appearance and forward speed, but we are thinking on it causing death or other penalties).

Gross but good fun and really nice graphics, wish it was a bit harder though. Also doesn't appear to be any sound.
