Run Ogre, Run! by CrazyMinnowStudio

[raw]
made by CrazyMinnowStudio for LD33 (JAM)
You are an Ogre running through a town causing mayhem. Avoid the obstacles and eat as many pies and drink as many ales as you can. The townsfolk will throw things at you from the sidelines. Sometimes they throw pie and ale, catch and devour them and avoid the pitchforks, spears, and rocks.

If you crash into too many obstacles or get hit with too many weapons, you'll slow down and the angry mob will get you! Eat pies and drink ale to regain your distance from the mob.

A,D to move left,right. (left/right arrows work too)

We hope you enjoy! Post your scores! Here's a game-play video demo with a pretty good score for you to beat! ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQb-B-uIc6I

Safari users: Safari seems to have issues with the WebGL version, but it should work well in Firefox or the downloadable desktop version.

Distance 91, score 157. But I have the screen all white. The screenshots on this site looks pretty, but I almost did not see a thing. I use Safari on mac. Thx for the game!

Thanks, we just tested on mac WebGL and see the symptom you described. We're working on a mac build now.

We've uploaded Windows, Mac, and Linux desktop version for anyone having issues with the WebGL version. We have confirmed issues with the WebGL version in Safari, though it seems to run fine in Firefox on Mac.

nice graphics and a cool game, not the best interpretation of the theme though

Couldn't get the high scores on screen. But the game can be quite addictive, plus that sound...please keep that up!

Great game - very addictive! I had to play it many times and will return for more... :-)
It's funny, has great audio and is well balanced.

Score: 581

Very well done!

525! That was nuts, there were several times I felt that hitting an object was the only option, but overall solid entry!

Nice, lots of hilarious voices, one even accused me of stealing their baby- not true unless it was under a pie. Good job!

Just amazing! No problems as far as I played and had a lot of fun doing so!

Played the web version, the graphic mostly black and white, like the lighting was too strong or textures where missing. Was pretty fun!

The graphics look real nice. It's a solid runner type of game, nothing groundbreakingly new but nothing wrong with it either.

I like the walking animation. And the bouncing boulders made me laugh. Good job!

@CosmicAdventureSquad were you using Safari? If so, a somewhat simple fix is to try Firefox if you have it. Safari seems to have a hard time rendering correctly.

I like the concept with the angry mob and all. Graphics are nice and the sound effects were amusing. The game has that "one more try, I can do better" feel to it, which is key in runner games. Fine work. 750 was my best.

It's all ogre now...

The web version didn't work for me, so I downloaded the Windows one instead.

I like the graphics as they're pretty consistent, and it's really addictive!

Good game!

Very polished game. Good graphics. Love the ogre animation! Audio is great also.
Although it's easy to miss - nice detail - those little achievements (i.e. "Pie Master!" or "Drunken Sailor" ;))

Overall Score: 983 (distance 443, score 540)

Very buggy, especially the collision with objects that slow you down, however I had fun and the visuals are good :)

To be honest, feels like a tired game genre, with a little too much health. The placement of the obstacles, as well as the obstacle's colliders not fitting with the graphics, sometimes made it hard to maneuver. I do think the comical audio was great, but also jarring when put together with relatively realistic graphics.

Very nice game! Went to 554!
Graphics are pretty great, music is nice (especially with the "tension mode"), but it had some troubles looping. The voice over are fun and the gameplay is classic but well executed.
Also (on webGL version), it had some fps issues, but I guess it's specific to this version.

At the first time, it's hard to know what item is good or not for the player. I liked the graphics and audio. The game is simple but fun.

That's some pretty graphics there. Nice music too! I managed to run a distance of 470 and got a score of 570. I Guess I'm a pie master! :P

Overall the graphics are really good, but the pitchfork/boulder move at an odd angle and the UI doesn't seem as polished as the rest.

Fun game, although a little more depth in the mechanics would improve it.

bombjack, if you were using the webgl version, there seems to be issues with Unity webgl in Safari. It should work well on Firefox or the desktop Mac version. Thanks for your feedback.

Well done! It was quite fun to play (got till 754), the music is nice, and the sound effects were funny. Sometimes, the (random?) pitch of some voices was way too high for my taste. Also, the pitch forks that were thrown were sometimes hard to notice, and they fly at a peculiar angle. ;) But overall, well done! :D

Really good graphics and solid gameplay. This would probably be a very popular mobile game if some more work was put into it.
