Have you always thought that taking care of animals in a beautiful zoo was something peaceful? Well, you are welcome to give it a try :)

Welcome to Zany Zoo

A small local zoo welcoming friends and families! You are the zoo keeper and it is your job to make sure everybody is happy... and safe :)

Take care of the animals, fill their needs using the tools in your shed (or... anything else?) and that's it!

Controls:

  • Move with WASD/ZQSD
  • Jump with Space bar
  • Aim with the mouse
  • Grab (almost) anything holding mouse left button

Enjoy and have fun!

Such a cool game! I had so much fun playing. The charakter is very funny. The controlling was a bit hard at first. Wish it had music and sounds.

This was really nice, tossing things around with physics feels good and the animations are hilarious! I tried my best to toss a visitor into the goat pen but to no avail. I miss having sounds though, that would have taken it to the next level. Solid effort, I really like the concept!

Nice graphics. I like how physics based everything is! I had a lot of fun with this and the infinite mode is a nice addition.

I really enjoy the "ragdoll" movement and it had a good feeling.

The gameplay is very fun and the graphics are cool aswell, all the detail and polish, for example the animations of the animals, is what makes the game so fun in my opinion.

Very great and fun game, the controls are just janky enough to be frustratingly fun :smile:

This is a really fun game to play! The art style is great, controls are intuitive and simple and so is the gameplay! There's not much I can think of to be improved except sometimes the visitors can get a little broken but apart from that it's a really nice game!

Very cute graphics and a nice simple core mechanic. My only issue was that I didn't notice the new animals when they arrived. Great work!

The idea is really nice, the game is funny, but controlling was was a little difficult but it's ok once you master it :)

Nicely executed idea, great stability for a jam game. Well balanced challenge and a neat artstyle too. Just wish there was some feeling of progression like getting coins from customers or something. Maintaining the happiness of the animals is not enough for me hahaha

AAAA, this is priceless! Maybe I'm being a little bit biased, because I'm a huge fun of this type of games, but still. It feels pretty complete. The freedom of action and choices, given by the physics of the game, is really catchy. Amazing work, would even recommend. :3
Absence of music and sound effects maybe just the only global thing left to improve.

Thank you very much for your feedbacks! A lot of people complain about the lack of sounds and musics and we totally share your feeling. At first we planned to include them of course, but sadly we were a bit too short on time to do it. Maybe we'll post a post-LD version with musics, sounds and some small improvement to make the experience more pleasant :)
Thank you again for your feedback!

It's like a miw between Zoo Tycoon, overcooked and human fall flat. Good job !
It took me a while to understand I could jump in the enclosure ^^'

I really loved this game. The graphics and movement are really cute and kind of goofy. It was much fun playing it.
Sadly i didnt notice when my second animal was spawned. And I had some trouble with the colliders.
Also my visitors really liked the left corner of the zoo. A couple of them got stuck there.

Coolest game I played this LD. I'm a bit upset right now, the goat died :-)

Some alarms would help to figure out some animal is in danger.

This game requires more playthroughs to see all the content, which is great for a jam game, especially one as playable as this one.

Well done!

What a shame there is no music nor sounds, but nevertheless this is hillarious! Really enjoyed it a lot and I have to confirm, that it is not an easy task to maintain a ZOO. Great job, Thank you for the game

Damn!!! This is great, I loved smacking down visitors, grab and throw them to the dumpster hahaha. The concept is really cool and the physics movement is awesome! Congrats!! Some punch and throw soudns would have been wonderful! :ok_hand:

Really nice game!! I miss some audio to make more ambient and a tutorial or hint that tells you there is anew animal in the zoo every day. But really good job!
