This was my first time taking part in Ludum Dare and my fourth publically released game. This was also my first time recording my own sounds and creating a 4-step walk cycle. And it was the first time my daughter did voice acting, but probably not the last. =)

Made in about 25.5 hours with:
Unity 5
Visual Studio
Paint.net
Piskel
Audacity
cgMusic
FontStruct
Everything was created during the Jam, except the font.

Really original thanks to the theme you took. However I don't know why the hitboxes of the ennemies are so hard to get... !
But nice game

@SowiHowl, you have to aim for the body of the potties. I didn't want to include the lid in the hitbox because it opens and closes.
Thanks!

Hilarious! What a creative tribute to your daughter. I hope she forgives you too :)
I would add a mechanic that informs the player how much "ammo" they have left. Good job!

Seriously, I had a blast playing this. It has a very simple mechanic, but yet is fast paced and fun to play. Loved the huge potty. Also, hope Frankie will forgive you ;).

Really funny game and I know what you mean, I'm a fresh father myself and the pees and poos just keep on coming ;)

Fun game, quite an unconventional weapon ;-)

Was there actually limited ammo? If so, an ammo counter would be nice.

Nice, good job implementing all this sidescroller action functionality in the game, very good interpretation of the theme!

Ha, that's certainly an unconventional weapon! I hope that Frankie is slightly less explosive than that, else you'll get through a lot of potties!

FYI, we fixed the bug that stopped you progressing in our game. If you feel like giving it a second shot, we'd love to hear what you think!

Your daughter learned to use the potty so quickly! Wow!

Hopefully she'll think the game is silly too, because it'll have been online for years before she'll notice and understand haha

Good stuff all around.
