Start With Not Hinge by AZAMATIKA

[raw]
made by AZAMATIKA for Ludum Dare 45 (JAM)

You are the Butcher. Your task is to slaughter pigs. All you have for this is one throw of a hinge. So, Butcher, start with not hinge.

Rules: You have single hinge throw, and hinge loses 25% of damage after each hit. The point is to put the pigs on the growing line of their health, if I correctly explain it in English. To do this you need to use abilities to move pigs and then use hinge. Remember, that abilities have charges, so you can't use ability button with number 0 on it.

Theme compliance: Start with nothing > Start With Not Hinge - E as hinge :)

All stuff made by us for Ludum Dare 45. Music and sounds taken from our previous projects.

Better to play Windows version because HTML5 can cause some bugs on different PC and browsers.

Had fun with this, and the graphics are great, although it seems like in the early stages the modifiers don't do a whole lot.

Oh my god I really loved your game !
At first I didn't quite understand it all (probably cause am not that good at puzzle games) + I think all your buttons were not working (especially the "move in front" and "move in back" button) but otherwise god the animations were so great and the theme of your game was pretty unique !

Good job you can be proud !

@kanonix abilities have charges (0 or more), if it's 0, you can't use the ability. BUT in browser version there's a lot of bugs can appear.

Graphism are impressive, fun to play but the difficulty is not progressive, I assume the puzzle are generated randomly and have multiple ways to be resolved ? Sometimes the ennemies spawn in perfect order.
Overall really like playing it, great job !

Cute graphics and interesting gameplay. The hero seems like Emile from Valiant Hearts. Найс ворк ^^

Really like the graphics, mood etc. etc. etc.

Puzzles were fun, one time I felt like I got an impossible one after I respawned and got a different puzzle but I am probably just an idiot lmao.

I think.. probably there is some way to present this that doesn't require numbers with a more streamlined UI, but off the top of my head I can't think of what that might look like.

Overall cool game, nice one man.

I found game rules counter-intuitive a bit. At first i could not pass first level without reading rules description. Later i've stucked at 5 level. Nicre graphics. With more gentle learning curve it may be a great puzzle.
