Suprise, suprise!

Our small game jam title, released a few days ago, seems to have cuteness factor going for it.

I must admit, the bouncy feel is perfect.

    So cute that I have to chew some barbed wire after watching that just to compensate / even out the mental balance ;)

    Cute indeed! :)

    OK I bit and took code #69HK77XAY7AY

    When I played it, the leprechaun got me every time. After four tries, I have yet to complete a rainbow.

    I know just the 4 year old to unleash on it!

    This is very clever, seems like your other half is on to something here. Worth exploring, imo.

    Very nice! I love the flow of the game, the music and the visual style! I can't wait to see what my 5 year old nice thinks about it!

    Good work and I wish you continued succes with sales :)

    Thank you for the kind words @robertkdale :)

    Thanks. I took PK9HTR7679F4 for the older kids in my spouse's daycare.

    @Socks? 0 Points? Did it take you 10 minutes to complete? :D

    Of course not, it must be a major bug in your game :p

  • HopscotchHopscotch Member, PRO Posts: 2,782

    Fixed @Socks!

    Rule: 
    
    if game.Player equals "Socks" then
             game.Score = ASYMPTOTE(game.Score)
    end if

    I also scored 0, though it may have taken me 10 minutes to complete.

  • HopscotchHopscotch Member, PRO Posts: 2,782

    Practice practice practice @kolabo :)

    Played again to comfirm the 0. This time it only took a minute.
    How about you add my name behind socks in the if statement? :)

    Seriously, there does seem to be a bug.

    I do like the feel, look and music like the others say.

  • HopscotchHopscotch Member, PRO Posts: 2,782

    Thanks for the words @kolabo.

    Look at the video, a minute should still give you a score.

    But yes, some exponential score may be less confusing/demotivating.

    Keep trying though. :)

  • kolabokolabo Member Posts: 240

    Got it! 113 this time around. Definitely not for the daycare kids. Ha! Ha! What was I thinking?

    Well I guess I'll challenge my 16 year old then. Unlike his father, he was one of the Blocky Bird champions.

    Congrats @kolabo !

    I guess being a "Game developer" does not automatically make us a "Gamer". :D

    Wait till you try "Rob Crook"

    Very true, you can also flip it and it becomes another true statement.

    Sacrilege @Lovejoy ! :)
