Ranked from 20 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
There are two phases to the game, the calm where you get as muddy as possible. Then there is the storm where you need to dodge the rain to stop from getting all your dirt washed off.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes all the code and art was made from scratch. Not 100% sure about the audio, I need confirmation on that.

Very fun game!

ahahahah very original! I really liked the idea and it is very well made!

I kept playing just to see what else would fall from the sky :)

Hee-ho. Good game. Nice experience

This was such a fun and original experience! The mechanics, especially eating through the mud, felt incredibly satisfying. I also loved how the art and sound perfectly complemented the gameplay. Would be great to see even more variety in future updates, like new obstacles or phases. Great job!

Submitted

This was great!! The mechanics are something I've never seen before, the way you eat through the mud is very satisfying :D

Submitted

my high score: 10695

well polished, even to the escape menu animation!

really fun/original idea, both how you combined the two genres and how you presented it. appreciated the humor.

if i had to improve it, i'd try giving more variety / fluctuation. 

for example periodical switching between storm and mucking phases (and thereby making the game into levels.)

and more projectile types, like someone watering the plants at the sides and the water stream shooting over to the playing field.

Love the art and the mechanic of dirt as a health bar, really smart! The menu was also really aesthetic and it felt good to play, great job! :D

The game is pretty, sounds nice, is easy to understand and quite funny! I like how you treated the theme too.

I have now received confirmation that not all sounds were made from scratch and there is a link to the sounds used in the credits :)

Hi, I'm the one of the programmers and the lead designer and sound designer of this project!
The team really appreciates these comments, thanks loads for the positive feedback so far!

I'm just commenting to share that the audio and music that I used is credited in the description of the games page, since it wasn't specified properly by the uploader in the "Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?" question. 😊

The presentation was fantastic! Also there was something satisfy about doing a pig slide cross the mud. I would have loved to see my score going up for the raining part just because it's hard to tell if I'm progressing or just dodging for the sake of it. Your description confirmed it for me, so I went back for one last slop fest!
