dis_covery by jagttt

[raw]
made by jagttt for LD19 (COMPO)
Use arrow keys to move(UP to jump), Z for kick, X for hammer. I try to approach the theme in a wordplay way but my English sucks and I don't even know if this count as a word play...

Anyway enjoy your hammer time!

I'll be coming back to play this one. Very simple and clean, but yet quite entertaining. It even made me laugh! Interesting take on the theme.

All elements work very nicely together, really well done. I'm not sure if I know what some of those things did though, guess I'll have to play it again :P.

Hammering helicopters? Preposterous! But quite fun! Effective usage of primitive means :)

Now that's a game. Totally unexpected, simple and fun.
And you managed to surprise me. I thought after the bomb now I've seen it. And then you brought in the worms, mega-hammer, bombs and copter-targets.
Really well done, awesome game!

Really nice game in 48H. Well done. I loved the simple/retro graphics and audio. But most importantly it was fun to see what was under those stones and bash them with a hammer. Especially the bombs ^^

That was fun and weird... never figured out what some of the guys did (the tall ones, and the helicopters which I couldn't interact with at all? Oh man, I didn't try hammering while up there!). Nice music.

This is cute! I like the graphics and music. At first I was disappointed that my flying discs didn't hit the airplanes, but when I found out I could get up there to smash 'em with bombs, that was even better! Pretty simple game but tight. BTW, I like the title and it counts as wordplay. :)

Discovering (see what I did there?) that I could hammer the helicopters was one of my favorite moments in gaming.

Very fun game. I made it to level 21.

Sometimes it was hard to hit things in mid-air, also I didn't realise it was possible to jump. The graphics were a bit plain but had a nice style. The music was a bit repetitive but that's probably because I played so much.

Super fun game and I really liked the audio. Simplicity was definitely your greatest asset here, keeps everybody focused on the fun!

Only criticism I can think of, and maybe it's just cuz' I was bad at the game =[, is that the copters were a little hard to hit and streaming a combo of copter smashes would be awesome.
