Hilarious idea and well executed. Would be great if the player could remap the keys, Q and Z are not that well reachable for me, but that's obviously part of the challenge. Excellent job overall!

It would help a lot if you would rate my game as well, it's my first ever so would really appreciate the feedback! Thank you

super cool idea for a game!

This is the reason we have game jams. Amusing concept. It is hard, but that is okay because it just makes the game more entertaining. Great game, well done :)

This was fun! Played WAYY longer than i should have lol, I couldnt get past level 2! 

Developer

Thanks so much for playing! Sorry it turned out much harder than I expected haha. Should have spent time at the end balancing it rather than coding a "dance party mode" that unlocks after level 3!

This is easily the most hilarious game in the jam. Good job :D

I loved everything about this game, down to the 3 "Ready... GO" signs.  Hilarious and original and really fun idea, A+

Hilarious and fun! Reminds me of qwop or whatever it was called

I love the bizarre and hilarious concept behind this one. Right now it feels a bit disconnected that movement doesn't seem to affect the balance of the tower. Maybe instead of having balance keys for the bottom child, link their balance to the movement left and right?

Fantastic game with a lot of potential. Want to see how this one develops!

Developer

Yeah I think this might be a better way of doing it. I could imagine it as a mobile game where you have to tilt your phone to balance the kids-tower, but tbh after working on these for three days I'm sick of the sight of it haha

Love the degree of difficulty. Its very difficult to make a game difficult all the while avoiding frustration.  Great job.

Btw check out my game and tell me your views yeah? :)

The concept is really funny! Reminds me of QWOP, but less harsh, although still quite hard! I don't have arrow keys on my keyboard; I need to use a combination of keys to input arrow keys which makes it even harder haha

Once I figured out the controls, I really came to enjoy the game! Great visuals and I loved the use of drum beats. Excellent work!

Some suggestions/ideas:

  • Perhaps left/right controls could be used to adjust the balance of the legs, as well move horizontally. Otherwise, there was not much benefit from moving left and right.
  • When the player character hits an obstable, instead of a simple falling over animiation, how about a special animation of the disguise falling apart and the the kids falling in a heap on the floor looking dazed. That would be an entertaining touch!
Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I totally agree with your suggestions. Ran out of time and still new-ish to Unity else it would be more polished and playable. Thanks :)

I really loved this idea... i saw "three kids in a trench coat" and I thought I HAVE to play this!

I expect a spin-off 'trenchlike' genre to explode onto E3 next  year

This is the future kids
