I have been looking for this game for so long!! I couldn't find it since the progress channel of the discord server was deleted. So glad that Olive found my message. Very cute game, I love it so much! Amazing physics and shooting effect. Pretty hard to get win hahaha.

It was a great pleasure to end this cyberbullies cybercrimes as a tiny jelly bean assassin.

It's great. I can tell the guy at the computer is up to no good.

The title is brilliant. Love the goofy low poly 3D visual within a polished game. This game is very suitable for vibing around. Had a really lot of fun playing around with this one!

I really enjoy the vibes of this game. The game's visuals are amazing and trying to line up the shot was really fun.

The only issue I have with this game is that the mouse is unlocked and the mouse y is inverted.

Developer

Yeah, apologies for that! I tested mostly on controller and didn't realize until after the deadline that I had forgotten to fix up the mouse controls - will be the first thing I fix post-jam, haha.

I have no idea what I need to do in the game but somhow I love it. Idk if its the music, the art, the setting, or the characters, maybe it was everything, this game is super sweet, fits the theme, is very creative and polished. Awesome job!

Had a lot of fun with this one! Even managed to turn the pistol into a machinegun for a few bursts.

Of the games I've rated so far I think this is the one I've most felt could be a full game if given time to flesh it out fully <3 The art is perfect for the mood of the game, the chaos of the misfires is top notch. I think there's a lot that could be done with this idea similar to the Hitman series, sure you can drag your gun around and get it pointed in the right direction and fire, but wandering around and luring the target places by turning on the microwave, or going through the trouble of dragging all of the ingredients of a sandwich onto a plate (along with some found and carefully dragged into place rat poison) getting him to come and take a bite, the possibilities for scope creep are endless :D 

As a side note I found it very amusing that I could get myself flung onto his desk and then dismantle his computer while he continues working away :P

Developer

Aww thank you so much! The feedback so far has been really encouraging and does kinda make me wanna keep going with the idea!

So, does it still count as a win even tough I did not pull the trigger? it looks like the Roomba trigger the gun and the bullet ricocheted and killed the dude. I should get extra points for that. It was really fun to simply explore the house and interact with the physics of everything and just see how things react with each other. :D

Developer(+1)

Roomba bonus is first thing on the list if I decide to expand on this haha

Really fun game! I never managed to kill the guy but the inherent humor of being a little guy trying to use a handgun 4 times his size trying to kill a normal sized guy that's a behemoth to him is incredibly funny. And the particle effects? Were those made using raymarching? The look of everything looks fantastic!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! The particles were made using the Unity asset MudBun, which I also used to model and rig the characters (those ones are baked into meshes, though) - it does support ray marching but only in URP, so these ones are just using marching cubes, I believe.

I spent way too long playing this. Awesome game!

Looks nice

Super cool idea.  Fun sandbox-puzzle setup.  I could see this being fleshed out with more weapons, tools, and tricks to work with.  Great "execution" :D.
