How is your game related to the Theme and Special Object?
You are being chased by a bear (because you ate its food), but you can only run in reverse. However, you can throw flags at the bear to stun it. Survive as long as possible before it gets you!

Funny take! and great use of art and music. Got around 150 seconds in, but i also think the bear may have gotten stuck in the beginning? It got so far away that i couldn't see him, but later he ran so fast that i couldn't get him off me. Also, the 4 lifes were kind of pointless as i died right away as he came to me lol. Great job!

150 seconds? Wow, great job!

So the bear is supposed to accelerate over time. At 150 seconds, he was probably faster than QuickSilver lol. Thank you for your feedback!

Haha i was surprised myself, but as i said, he was stuck in the beginning, and i couldn't see him for a while. might have been a bug on my end, or maybe it's tied to framerate rather than time? anyway, i enjoyed it a lot!

I was not very good at running away lol.  I love the opening animations.  Well done!

Developer

lol. Thank you for playing!

The concept is so funny. I really enjoyed that and the thrill of the bear coming at me was real :D

98 seconds! Very funny and good. I do think you should be able to walk forward a LITTLE bit though. It's easy to walk on the wrong side of a rock making the flag hard to reach in some cases. Well done though! I like the little story sequence at the beginning.

Developer

Wow! Good record. You must have had those flags ready to go! Ah will have to fix that. I have the rock and the flag spawning randomly, but there's a case they collide. Thank you for the feedback!

Good game, i'm not good but that was still interesting ! I would advice you to give player time when he's getting hit. Because 4 or 1 life is exactly the same here ^^ 
And the flag doesn't work when hitting too close.
Good job anyway !

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! I'll try fixing those bugs after the jam. :) Hehe.

The game looks good, but the gameplay is far from ideal.

Developer

Ah gotcha. Thanks for checking this out! What parts of the gameplay can I improve upon?

Submitted

Nice, I like that you went with a 3D game. Very nicely done for 3 days! :)

Developer

Thank you!

It was pretty fun to play a few times! I like the story at the beginning, that cracked me up!

Developer

Lol. I'm glad you liked the intro. Thank you.
