Gophers and Choppers by abrie

[raw]
made by abrie for LD29 (COMPO)
You are the pilot of a low-tech Suction Chopper. Click on a gopher hole to position your helicopter and vacuum up the critter at the other end. Advance to the next level by extracting the critters in the specified order. It takes a special kind of genius to know which hole leads where, so take a peek below the surface and apply your memory. You only get three peeks, so be a savant.

There is no programmed ending, but eventually the game will become too difficult to play (for either you or your hardware).

This is a nice concept. Very original. I didn't really have a lot of fun per se, but I think that children would really like this. Great educational game.

Looks good, pretty polished too! Be proud!

Nice! I got some way along, but my brain is too tired. Then I read it is infinite. On the higher levels it would have been good to have a reset button, especially when I got the first one wrong haha.

Oops I'm so tired I left a normal comment instead of rating.

Very appealing graphics... I like the variety of creatures and the ground rotation effect is nice. I was ambivalent about the music; I liked the quirky theme that plays when you peek underground but some of the other music and sound struck me as too retro for this graphical style.

It was zoomed in a little on Chrome; some of the interface was partially cut off.

Nice interpretation of the theme, and I agree, it could be a great mobile game :)

I thought at first it was strangely simple until I realised you could only look under once! As soon as there were more than two guys to get I started to make mistakes. Fun idea!
