Hospital Trash!

Used flash, pen and scan
and nanostudio for music

Love the aesthetic and feel. Definitely addicting and love how the time limit mechanic adds something to the cookie clicker-esque gameplay.

Great game. The art and and music mesh really well, making up a really dirty, creepy atmosphere.

The first 1000 is brutal, but after that there is solid progression. Art is very stylized and cool, albeit macabre.

As I clicked on the web player, it immediately sent me to Game Over. I don't seem to be able to click on the button to re-try :(

I am on Mavericks, using Chrome.

Ha, didn't expect to find a clicker game! I love the horror aesthetic of it and the unique take on the theme.

Wow, the art is awesome.

Well done!

Love how it looks. I guess adding a timer is about as mechanically rich as you can really make a cookie clicker game.

I'm not a big fan of this kind of gameplay, but the graphics and the sound are great, and the kind if pretty fun !

Dark humor, I always liked it. Sound and art also great.

Nice drawings. I don't like fast clicking though… (worried about wearing out my mouse). I'd prefer a keyboard press.

AH, this was great! Addictive, some strategy, nice take on the theme.
Looked just right and the music never got boring.
The news head lines were a nice touch, somethiong to read while your clicking for your life.

Top marks for humor.

Too bad for the timer bug, I was doing well on my second attempt and then saw the time didn't run at all.
I'm glad I saw that before ruing my mouse :)

One of the most humorous games of the jam. The news are hilarious, and a good way to occupy your mind when your click like a mad! :)
Very creative entry, I like it!

Thanks for your comments. Looking at your game mine is like a turtle. I've made a new version which is faster, so if you some time to play it again :)

Looks nice. Adding a time limit to a click as many times as you can game worked really well.

I love this game, and I didn't like "Cookie Clicker" in the least. However, the time limit is an original touch and makes it a lot more tense.

This is all around great. Great graphics, excellent powerups, and the news headlines are absolutely hilarious.

I still haven't beaten it, but I'll definitely be coming back to this one.

One of the best and most professional LD entries I've played.

Loved the art! It has a great sort of street-graffiti vibe to it and I enjoyed it. That being said I thought the gameplay was alright. The first time I opened up the game, clicking "start" took me to Game Over. I refreshed the page and it was fine. The clicking mechanic was alright, but it felt a bit exhausting for me. Great atmosphere though!
