Funny, playable, interesting, and mobile friendly !!!! Quite a lot of content too !!!! (my daughter couldn't get enough)

plays awesome on android, using the love player directly to open the download, we keep coming back to this :) EPIC SUCCESS we love the light hearted atmosphere :)

Developer(+1)

Wow, that keeps me going. For real. The game caused me quite some stress so it's nice to see it making poeple happy. In around one week I'll probably just fix some of the buginess. I wonder how far you got, though it's possible I think getting to that dreaded level 9 should be pretty hard.

finished multiple times ^^ my daughter too ;^) meaning we had the blue screen of level 9

Developer

Noooo...My shame! :P

Developer(+1)

Heheh...updated.

Very cool, I loved the idea. well done

Developer

Thanks, once you have the idea, 70% of the game is done :P :)

Neat game! Everything showed up really small on my screen, making some of those jumps hard to judge. Lingering on the death a little bit longer might help me figure out how I’m dying next time.

But overall that was pretty fun. :)

Thanks, drhayes. Too bad about the screen thing, did't have enough time to test it on a bigger screen but I did make things better by using a tweaked version of this.

The turrets were so slow that they didn't really pose any sort of challenge. But the gore was cool. And the sounds were pretty brutal. A little buggy, like the springs often have white squares on them. Nice effort. Cool that you did the whole thing on a phone! 

Developer

Hah, yeah the debug squares I forgot to remove at the last minute and the turrets (fish spitting....other ...fish....yeah) are slow but can get in your way if your reckless. There are also different types of turrets(?) after level 4.

Thanks, I almost didn't add the gore. ;)

Good effects, fast game play, tight sounds. I hit a weird bug on the second level but this is definitely a quality submission.

Developer

Glad you liked it. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to squash bugs. (E.g. level 9 being a lie, I keep mentioning it because it's my biggest shame :P)

Gameplay was a bit too fast for my liking. However, the graphics and audio are spectacular and compliment each other. Well done!

Developer (1 edit)

Heheh, I was considering making the gameplay .... EVEN FASTER!

But I didn't. A lot of people seem to compare it to Geometry Dash (which has fast gameplay too) though I wasn't even thinking about that when I made the game. Just jiggy ...pigs. The speed of the game allows speed running/besting your last time. I find beating my best time by making the optimal run, and then when my run is too optimal, refreshing the level pretty fun.

Thanks, I put a good amount of sweat and stress into it.

gettin' piggy with it

That's the most bestest thing I've heard all day.

This game feels impossible to complete for me for the reason that this game seems to not have the delta-time to multiply the physics steps update.

Since there is no fixed fps then some user may find this game runs at a different speed on devices. And also could be impossible for those who has high framerates, not only the game runs smoother, the game-time also becomes faster which average people wouldn't have much reaction time for that.

There is also random crashes sometimes during the gameplay.

Not to mention those issues, arts in level selection section looks good. Art style in this game is the most I admire in this game. Others I honestly don't find much good about them.

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks, put a good part of my time in the art. I saw this issue of frame rates (where the pig jumped higher for slower frame rates and other wierd stuff) late in the jam so I couldn't apply a proper fix (still don't know the real problem because it uses dt). But I *did* try to add a fix of some sorts. Just tried to slap in an option to help ....control(?) it. Try turning frame skip in settings on/off.

Submitted

I like the pig so much. Something I noticed was how the lives went into the negatives.

Developer

Thanks. The game mode is on ... baby. That's why you can't lose. You can change game modes at the top of settings.

Submitted(+1)

oh cool I’ll make sure to play again. It’s so fun lol

Developer (1 edit)

Ahhh, I checked again and it seems that at the last minute when I was making baby mode work I made all the other modes likes baby mode. And also level 9 is a lie. If a level is locked keep tapping it for  ... never mind.

Thanks, if you want to play it again you should get the update that will fix this jamy hammy game of mine after the rating sesh.

(Also, that avatar reminds me of an amogus...hmmmm...)

Developer

Heheh...updated.
