T.A.G.W.Y.H.O.P.P.D.a.a.D.o.S.S. by DavidErosa

[raw]
made by DavidErosa for LD33 (COMPO)
For my 11th Ludum Dare, I present you all....

-- == TAGWYHOPPDaaDoSS == --
(The Amazing Game Where You Hand Out Publicity Pamphlets Disguised as a Dinosaur or Something Similar)

== THE GAME ==

The big city with streets full of people. You hate it. Your job sucks. You hate it, too. Every day you face the same internal fight: Earn money... or punch those who pass by making fun of your uniform?

Try to make a living handing out pamphlets or hit people "by mistake"!

== HOW TO PLAY ==
You have 1 minute to hand out the pamphlets and earn money. Be careful because if you run out of papers, you'll start hitting people and losing money! Recharge them on the "recharging station".

Hold long enough and you'll receive the greatest help!

== CONTROLS ==
Cursors / ASDW - Move
X / Left Mouse Button - "Give"
M - Mute music (Sorry)
Escape - Exit / end game.

Wow this is a great entry. The colours are amazing. Its really easy to play and pick up. I really like the challenge of the short time limit. My only issue that the the music loop is a little too loopy. Good show!

A cool little game. Graphics are perfect, and it is very easy to pick up and play. The music is a little annoying, and the gameplay feels like it could use a little kick in the beginning.



Great work!

I liked this entry a lot. The art style is nice, the audio is well done, the humour is genuinely funny, and I didn't even think the music was all that bad. Excellent all around.

Great game! All the actions are very rewarding (specially pluto-BAM!- and hitting people after running out of pamphlets :D) making it very fun to play. Very original take on the theme, and very satisfying overall. Good work!

Whoa, the Pluto power is awesome. Great graphics, mechanic, really funny. Nice spamming simulator overall.

(And music is not that annoying, relax)

This is a really good game. It made me laugh when I first saw the flyers sticking to the people's face. Very clever use of pluto's heart as well. Well done.

Spot on! Meteor explosion power up, spectacular! I think you nailed the animation for people walking, very simple, but very smooth and attractive!

Addictive little game! I included it in part 20 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/WVNLcoTqal4

Like that the game had a strong presentation, and I did find it amusing to slap pamphlets on people's faces. Also appreciate the variety of races and hair styles added into the game.

That said, I did find the game to be repetitive. Perhaps a mundane job was intentional, but it didn't feel like that aspect of the game added much. Pluto's heart power-up was a nice addition, though, that did add some strategy to the game.

Overall, good job!

This is actually quite fun and well polished! Good job here :D
I had to go fullscreen for the controls to work, but otherwise it was a lot of fun
