Post Scriptum: How did you get the pixelated effect?
Now, please avoid using the Z key in the future, as it is extremely awkward on non-QWERTY keyboards. Sure, it is reconfigurable, but having something else like space be the default action key in this would've been a better choice.
The game overall is very well put together. By which I mean that everything (with the exception of music, which is sadly missing) fits together to form a nice whole. A Gesamtkunstwerk, as one might call it. The movement, animation, graphics, and effects all complement each other and are perfectly in theme to form a simple and clearly silly game.
I'm not entirely sure what else I could say about it. Aside from the music there is scarily little that could still be improved. Perhaps having more clearly laid-out goals --I was not sure why I would be collecting these small pillars? or if that's what I was supposed to be doing-- might be better. Maybe a counter for how many things you've destroyed so far could be neat.
Definitely one of the best entries I've played here. Very well done.
The graphics are superb, the theme is amazing, the gameplay is basic, but fun. I really liked how everything you touch with fire instantly explodes. Sound effects are nice, and the lack of music actually adds to the mood of the game.
I kinda wish there was more gameplay to it, like a scoring system or something, but it's still a good 2-minute experience.
My life is complete now, thanks.
On a more serious note, love the art style :)
My enjoyment of the game picked up considerably from there.
With seagulls.
Stuff I loved:
* The general concept and art style, beautiful
* The way the people ran away
* The explosion animation
* The way the twigs each made a different sound
* The bird's feet, super funny
Only thing I didn't really like was the lack of a clear objective, I thought maybe by collecting all the twigs I'd make a nest somehow, but it wasn't clear to me if collecting them all did nothing or if I just missed one.
Regardless, loved it.
I MEAN - BIRDS RIDE BICYCLES?!!
Just kidding, but more seriously thats pretty funny haha
I like the graphics and humor.
The most curious thing I'd say is that this LD all the sadists are poping everywhere.. it's almost creepy haha!
I'm just glad this exists and isn't called "Seagull Simulator"
Also, the title makes more sense after searching what Meeuw meant in Dutch.
