QATERPILLAR by Pilly

[raw]
made by Pilly for LD34 (JAM)
A QWOPlike Caterpillar puzzle platformer. How do you control this thing???
Avoid bees, and don't step on ladybugs. Obstacles will repeat themselves until you clear them.

Originally created for the compo, but missed the deadline by over 2 hours, alas.

Pretty fun game, not to mention difficult to get used to! It's pretty easy to cheese the last ladybug once you know how, though!

At the beginning, I had no real idea, how you control the ladybug. But after some seconds I figured it out, and the game was quite fun and also innovative. Good audio and Humor is great! Love the bees c:

This really impressed me. Solid entry. Well done. Very tricky but fun. The expressions on the creature add humor and the audio ties it all together. Great work.

The game is pretty original - I haven't seen anything like it. Unfortunately, the controls give me a headache, and having 8 buttons at once isn't very practical.

haha that was definitely 'QWOP-like' [is that a new genre?], and it was just as difficult, and just as fun.

I loved the caterpillars little faces as he messes up haha, really cute.

Nice job, that's a really solid little game :)

What a unique puzzle game! I've never been more glad that I only have 2 legs to worry about.

Loved the tone the art and music set; fit the awkward controls and goofy movements perfectly. I loved how you curved up the difficulty gradually by adding more parts too. I didn't really grok the controls until the ladybugs and challenge poses at the end, and had a lot of fun failing to move myself properly.

This was a simple, clever, and really solidly-made game; sorry you didn't make it in time for the Compo, but I'm sure you'll do fine!

Very cute facial expressions! I love the bees with cool shades :) Excellent music too. Would have been nice to have a reset button so I didn't have to wait for a ladybug to go all the way across the screen when I messed up right at the start of an obstacle.
