Everybody Fail by ncgames

[raw]
made by ncgames for LD26 (JAM)
Tricky minigames designed using just three rectangles. Fail. Fail. Fail.

Once you've got the idea, press M for different game modes - streaks, high scores, and individual games.

Let's see if anyone can beat my 12-shot streak in basketball.

Well, won every minigame. At first I thought it was going to quick, but the repetition made it easier. Acctually quite fun!

I enjoyed - basketball one was the toughest I thought, with golf a close second. Didn't fail a single driving game though.

Can't access any of the binaries. Web works.

arcades are rare and hard to execute as you need to put soo much work into them. you've done well and the minimalism certainly helped. good work.

i failed. almost everytime.

Really interesting use of minimalism. The basketball game was probably the hardest one.

Very nice, I like the idea of minigames following certain design restrictions (like using only three rectangles). The game modes make this game more interesting.

This really suits the theme. Awesome idea, similar to Wario Ware on the Nintendo Platforms.

The three rectangles on screen at any one time was a really interesting limitation to put on yourself, and it resulted in multiple fun quick games to play. Well done.

Very much like Warioware. I love your self-imposed restrictions on the art.

It seems that sometimes, Basketball is impossible. I'm probably wrong, but that's the impression I'm getting. Other than that, great game! Could use more minigames, but then again, it was only a 72 hour jam.

That game destroy my self esteem, heehehe.
Great mini-games you have here. Minimalistic at all.

Loved it! Spent more time playing this than most of the other games I've played (100+). Great job in keeping with the theme, but keeping it fun!

Not bad, but somwhow I never know exactly what button to use for each action... that could be refined in a future version!
