Ranked from 36 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does the game fit the theme?
The goal is to allow the oblivious pedestrians to cross a very dangerous street safely(ish). For everyone to pass, nothing can go wrong! At least for them.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
- SFX (horns and traffic ambient), they were obtained in pixabay (with proper license)
- Bus model is from a free product at the asset store.
- Background buildings were also free from the asset store.

Everything else was made by us during the game jam period.

How many people worked on the game?

Fun game, I really like it.

Submitted

ragdolls are funny. Game could use something to speed up the game

Submitted

I like the art and music. I have caused too many deaths.

Submitted

Interesting idea! Keep up the good work!

Submitted

The art is great, and the music very relaxing. My only problem is that the game is very based on luck, nothing really is under my control if 3 or 8 people goes accross which is little frustrating =(

Great game!

Submitted

Very funny game and a really nice concept. I also couldn't seem to get past the second level.

Submitted

Nice game! Placing a ramp truck on a bus's way makes it a complete mayhem :)
Would be great if the pedestrians were going faster cause I had to wait a lot to see the result

Submitted

I can't get past the second level, and it's really hard to get people to cross the road

Submitted

Nice game ! A bit lacking in UI/UX and in gameplay elements but otherwise it's very cool.
It reminds me of Crossy Road :)

Submitted

It's a fun idea, and it kind of fits the theme in more ways cause the ramp keeps flipping cars and it's kind of fun to watch. Intended or not I love that feature. The way pedestrians fly away when hit makes me laugh every time lol.

Submitted

I like the idea, unfortunately, it's a bit broken. I'm not sure if it's a feature or a bug, that cars collide with eachother, which constantly blocks the road :D

Submitted

Really nice idea. I loved the giant fan. The art in particular is really clean

Submitted

Cool concept, i found some minor bug, but the game is still enjoyable !

watch out with the UX and the UI it's not super clear what can i do

Submitted

Cool concept, graphics and casual feeling! I also liked your motivation for the game " everybody is looking at their phones rather than looking ahead".  Ragdolls are really nice and it is fun to see what happens with different combinations of items, placement and orientation. I would only like to see that there is time control to make game faster when there are no pedestrians. All in all very nice!

Submitted

The Rag dolls were amazing  

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

I really like the concept, it fits really well with the theme! Though I'm not sure I understood completely the mechanics, are the vehicle spawned randomly, or is there a logic to the spawning ?

Developer

Thanks for your comment! At first we wanted to add deterministic random spawning, to ensure the levels could be repeated expecting same results by using a seed. But in the end vehicles and people spawn every couple of seconds (with a small random variation). That made it a lot more rng based.

Submitted

I liked the concept of the build phase and the execution phase and i would have liked to see more variaty in the elements that you can place.
I was not able to bring all the people across, i don't know if its possible  :(

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! It is in fact possible to complete a level with max score, though it’s incredibly difficult and requires a hefty amount of luck.

We were planning on adding more elements to build with, coupled with more levels with increasing complexity, but as usual in a game jam project, the additions were discarded in order to make a somewhat complete game prototype.

Submitted

I like this kind of approach for a puzzle game.

I don't know if there are more than two levels because when I click on the "Next Level" button nothings happens. And sometimes cars crash and get stuck and I don't know if that's intended or a bug.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

Yes there are only two levels, we couldn’t make a third one in time, and the game ended up being quite short. Since it is a physics based game, sometimes weird things can happen, and after reducing the amount of those events, we can happily call them features :)

Submitted

I really liked it, very original! I couldn't find a way to pass the level without people dying, but I still managed to beat some levels. The core gameplay is fun, and it could be further polished, but in a jam, there's never enough time for everything. Overall, it's pretty well put together—congratulations!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Awesome concept, my only complaint is that there isnt more!

Developer

Thank you!
