Mosquito attack by Filoox

[raw]
made by Filoox for LD32 (COMPO)
You have to kill a mosquito with a homemade flamethrower.
But don't put your bedroom on fire !

Click to light the lighter.
Spacebar to spray deodorant.
HUD indicate right place to shoot.
Limited resources.

I developed this game with :
- Flash CS6 / AS3,
- Photoshop,
- a mic,
- Audacity,
- paper and markers,
- my real indoor hunter experience,
- soda, cofée and cookies.

Enjoy.

I like the idea. I found it a little too hard to see the mosquito since it has very little contrast with the background. I don't know if this was intentional or not. Also the fact that the lighter doesn't light up immediately is quite frustrating because I can't really control when to shoot.

But in the end I liked it :) It was fun and the graphics are well done!

Thanks!
I like the idea of give you a funny moment. And yes, it's hard to find mosquitoes in my room, on the night. I say that about my personal hunter experience.

I have spent more time for make a complete ambiance than develop other paths for mosquitos. So I hope the experience will be short but excellent!

This is fun! But I don't think I'll use this for hunting them in my room. Simple and yet stylish game.

One night I was super tired and went to bed at about 9:00pm. Then this mosquito came in and bugged me until midnight. Woke up the next morning with about 100 bites on me.

Super marrant :P Les sons et les graphismes sont très bon pour un jam, et ça fait le taf. Evidemment ça manque un peu de profondeur de gameplay, mais l'idée est géniale. Beau boulot :) !

I agree more mosquitoes would be fun, to see how many you can get with your limited supplies.

The dog barking and atmosphere noises were great!

I'd question why the dude uses the makeshift flamethrower immediately, instead of a simple swatter, but maybe that mosquito is really, REALLY annoying. :D Great work :)

This is a military argument:
- More weapon is heavy, there is less need for precision.

No trace of blood on the walls.
Procedure time: 1 second.
No muscle tear in the shoulder...

:D

Freaking amazing game! Love the art style. This makes me feel like i'm Walter White going crazy over a fly :)

I love the artistic style of this game. Nice entry. I did have a problem with the mouse leaving the embed area that was quite frustrating, and when I clicked the web link I couldn't see the bottom part of the game in my browser, but I got the damn mosquito in the end :)

Well done!!

The audio, the mood, the graphics, the situation... Hilarious. It also has an intro.
Not too hard, not too easy. Polished.
I wish the path of the mosquito was random, now it's very predictible which makes the game less fun.
Amazing work!

Sweet entry! It's a bit tough, but that's okay, since it's funny. Sometimes the cursor would lose focus.

Hilarious! :D

Nice simple style, funny fail conditions, ambient sounds are awesome! Where's the video of you making those fly sounds? ;)

Good effort!

Thank you very much for all your comments.

I would put GoPro around me for the LD33 weekend. XD

I spent:
50% of the time to draw.
20% of the time to record my voice and make audio editing.
10% to the integration of media.
10% to the animation.
10% to programming.

I regret not having had time to prepare other levels to extend the experience

I love the tininess of your enemy. It feels great hunting for that little guy. The style seems very polished and complete. Also that noise is horrible which is great.

Funny idea, it's fun to play and made me laugh (I like how your wife is still sleeping although she's on fire when you lose ;)). Too bad the game is so short, you should do a post compo version with more levels! And I definitively like your art style.

Bravo ! :)

Hilarious. I think that this weapon isn't really unconventional because I am using it often at home :)
A good entry ++

One mosquito. It's always just one dang mosquito. Thanks for not making your mosquito nearly as enraging as a real one.
Quite fun, though. I did notice eventually that the mosquito movement is on a loop.
Also, it would help if the cursor were locked to the game window in some way.

Loved your art work for this. The look on the guys face was priceless and the audio fitted the mood of the game perfectly.

The humor is pretty good, so it is the look'n'feel, but the gameplay is almost nonexistent. Anyway, it was a good entry, congratulations.
