Whiny Preachers by tweepaduck

[raw]
made by tweepaduck for Ludum Dare 56 (JAM)

No matter what happens, don't let those little tiny whiny preachers lay hands to your holy potion!

Controls: LEFT CLICK: Drop a sledgehammer on those whiny preachers - watch out, it has a cooldown.

SPACE: Drop an Anvil to both kill a whiny preacher and block their way.

F: Drop a bomb that will explode after some time, exterminating all near whiny preachers.

P.S: Hi! This is our humble first attempt at creating a game from scratch using C++/OpenGL. Although we couldn't deliver the game in a complete state, we had so much fun on the journey, and hope you do too - we'd love some feedbacks!

Changelog: Fixed being able to use infinite bombs :face_palm:

When I replay, the game has to restart. Very lacking in sounds and music, but overall the idea is implemented well

I liked the idea; once I figured out what I actually needed to do, it was fun.

I like the idea, wish there was sound but I know making a game completely without an engine in just 3 days is quite the challenge so well done, it was quite simple to understand and felt good to play.

Congratulations on your first project! ^^

Interesting idea! But not enough content...(

You still have many "Ludums" ahead, and you can improve your skills in the future! ;)

Simple yet well-made, I can sympathize with the first game jam problems as our team did our first collaborative jam as a group! The idea looks well thought out, and I hope to see another banger whenever you make your next game!

I think the point to jams is more the experience we gain from this little time slot and doing things we may not usually do or in different ways. I view it as a way to grow and if a game doesnt get finished at least you learned something most likely and had fun doing it! I thought it was a good little entry to the jam:)

Definitely a really cute game, you have to be quick though because maybe I'm missing something but you can't restart without restarting the whole app? Nice art though good job!
