I hope you'll keep making and participating on LD! :) My Unity skills are just as good as my latin knowledge (none) so, for me, a first game made in Unity is quite a feat. :)\r\rThe idea is pretty nice and being the dude who always prevents people from making points, is really a monstrous idea (I know because I've been called worse for doing it ;D).\r\rI don't know if you played it, but this has that "fly swatter game" feeling from Mario Paint, which I think is quite nice. :D\r\rIt would be a good thing to work on this game and improve it, as this can be even more fun. Like, include an upgrade system, power ups, double swatter! :P\r\rAnyway, cheers!
