Inconvenience Store by BunkeyInteractive

[raw]
made by BunkeyInteractive for LD32 (COMPO)
Welcome to the inconvenience store, where nothing is easy to find, prices are higher then ever, and our guards attack you on sight! Yall come back now!

Controls: Walk: WASD | Sprint: Left Shift | Crouch : Left Control | Pickup Product: E | Throw Product: Left Click | Drop Product: E Again

There are a couple of weird bugs. Quick tip - IF YOUR MOUSE IS STUCK IN A MENU, RESTART THE GAME.

This turned out a lot better then I expected. While it's still buggy, I'm very happy with it, and I hope you are too :)

Thanks! - Collin

Just wanted to let everyone know that my source and webplayer are still loading. They are built and run, they are just in the uploading process.

Buggy, clunky and boring. Fitting music though.

Everything should be uploaded! I had to switch to itch.io because dropbox wasn't working for me...

Decently fun to run around in for a few minutes. Really wish it would tell you how long you survived. Not entirely sure what it has to do with the theme though.

Being able to open the fridges in the back caught me by surprise. Good Job.

The theme is "Unconventional Weapon" so you have to use random grocery items as weapons to fight the guards. Hope that makes sense. Sorry for all of the bugs guys :/

I really liked the artwork, my mouse was hypersensitive so I don't think that helped my gameplay much, and the controls felt a little sluggish. That said, the character design made me laugh, and the single guard followed by like 20 others all clipping into each other was hilarious. The game was pretty and funny, the song was nice but I wish there were more sound in general.

Overall I'm glad I got to play it!

Nice work! I'm digging the number of assets available. I wasn't able to get a single guard though, they're tough! Nice music, nice take on the theme. Well done.

I threw a watermelon at the cops. 10/10. Love the music.

The art was awesome, but the gameplay not so much. the guards just sort of ran around in a circle and didn't do anything

Thanks for all of the compliments guys :) I know that the guards are WAY too OP, and the controls are wonky, and the mouse is weird. I really wish I would have had more time to fix those things for you guys :(

Also, apparently my guitar playing skills are acceptable by you guys :)

The guards react nicely to things being thrown at them, but it's hard to see how much damage is being dealt in either way.

SO MANY GUARDS! Caught me by suprise when I saw about 50 guards coming out of one door. The gameplay was average, the music was good, and the artstyle fit well.

So was Far Side an inspiration for this? ;)
Also, music is great! art is good, too.
I'm kind of disappointed this is only a survival game; from the description I expected to sort of quest or missions of having to gather certain items while evading guards. Anyways, good job with what you did.

Some notes: cursor is visible when you first load the main game level, but it does disappear after you click.
Also, when you die, the mouse is still locked, so you can't click anything in the menu.

Yeah, the cursor thing is a known bug that I just couldn't fix in time. Thanks for playing! Maybe I'll remake this and turn it into an actual game later on :)

I thought initially it was a meditative piece, commenting on shallow commercialism and machine produced food or something. Did a bit of a stroll and then a glance at the shelves too see if there was any political statements/commentary on the products ... next I look up and there's an angry purple guy in a turban hitting me with his flailing arms... Hmmm, is this a modern art piece or should I just randomly throw this toilet paper roll I picked up... the questions.. the implications..

Great music and a lot of fun :) I would probably just turn off FOV manipulation. Every time I stopped I had a feeling I'm moving backwards :D

Funny small game. Like the others said nice graphics and audio, but need some work on the gameplay. But you can definitely be happy with it, 48 hours are not much time and you did a game :)
