Sausage Gobbler by Entity2D

[raw]
made by Entity2D for LD27 (JAM)
You can't stop eating sausages! You have made the "super sausage" your main purpose in life. If you spend over 10 seconds not eating sausages, you will have a panic attack!

-Arrow keys to move and climb ladders
-Space to jump / fall from ladders
-Collecting sausages temporarily stops the timer, and give you a points bonus
-finishing a level will give you a time bonus. Finish quickly for bigger points.
-You don't have to collect all the sausages in a level, just reach the top.

Good Job, I really like the way the levels transition between each other. I failed about 5 times on the first level thinking I needed to pick up each sausage. :)

reminded me of lode runner, a classic. at first i thought i needed to collect all of the sausages to progress. game got much easier once i realized that i only needed to make it to the top

Classic! Brutally hard. Catchy tune. I too did not realize that you didn't need to get all the sausages. Still: hard! Nice work.

Seriously good 1980 vibes (except for the font aliasing ;-D) This is hard but fun. Nice presentation.

Like pretty much everyone here, I thought the goal was to eat all the sausages. Got THIS close to the giant sausage, but that damned bee every time!

Was pretty fun, really simplistic and easy to grasp. The difficulty seemed a little unfair at times but it was still enjoyable. Port to mobile please.

That was hilarious. The transitions are really nice, but I wish there were more levels and a checkpoint system. Instructions in the game are usually a good idea as well :)
Good game nonetheless :)

14669! Sweet retro oldschool look with oldschool difficulty to match it. I thought this was very solid entry. Funny idea of sausages, nice job!

Hmmm, it seems my last comment didn't go through?

Anyways, I watched a playthrough of this on N0_Named_Guy's stream and had to give it a go after. Very challenging, but very rewarding on beating it, like more retro, arcadey still games. Some pretty decent production value here too. Great work!

Fun little game, reminded me of Ice Climber for the NES. :)
I initially thought I had to collect all the sausages and lost quite a few times! I like the level progression, but at one level, a bee stings us as soon as the level starts. You should consider changing that.

Very tricky, great retro single screen game :)

Like the retro vibe and music. The jump physics need work for it to be fun (best jump to land time? about .7 seconds. Do that and it will instantly feel better). Nice effort.

Not bad. Sadly, after losing you must play all levels again.
As said before, retro graphics and music, but still looks good.

Totally brought me back to the 80's! Very well done. Loved the transition between levels.
