Suidae Runaway! by Jynshi

[raw]
made by Jynshi for LD34 (COMPO)
Suidae Runaway is a game where you play as Jacob the pig. It's time for your slaughter, but you're not going out without a chase! Run away from farmer Giles and eat food so you can grow big enough to jump the fence and win your freedom!

Fun little game!! Awesome graphics and animations! Gets quite tricky to pick up every item, ended up running into other pigs a lot of the time. Very cool!

Interesting premise and visuals! Having the pig constantly chased by a farmer with an axe gave a good motivation for constantly running forward. All the pigs running around the arena gave the setting energy.

I felt the colliders were not forgiving enough. The pickups seemed to have colliders that were literally the size of the object, which gave me a lot of situations where I would just barely miss an item. Typically colliders on pickups are slightly larger than the actual model.

I grabbed enough fruit where I thought I could reasonably get over the fence, but I ended up dying instead. I don't know if there's every a visual indicator that tells you this, but if there is not that would be nice so there isn't any guess work.

Pig sound effects came out a bit too often for me, could have dialed back the frequency a tad.

Overall very nice entry.
