Barrel Roller by Sandyloisa

[raw]
made by Sandyloisa for LD35 (JAM)
NOTE: Please avoid playing it using Safari browser since due to some reason its crashing on Safari.

For some reason, mafias have become your enemy and you need to hit them and hit them hard! And you got the best weapon of your choice ever: BARRELS!!!

Yes, hit them with barrels by turning it over into rolling position and then again back to upright position. Move your barrels intelligently to harm them in any way possible. Make use of the physics environment and use it tactfully to clear all baddies in a level.

Enjoy the 16 levels of real physics puzzle fun.

CONTROLS: Mouse only. Click on barrel to change its position.

Rolling position: Heavier weight and less friction.
Upright position: Lighter weight and high friction.

This game was developed jointly by Sandeep Saha and Satyajit Chakraborty as a part of Ludum Dare 35 in 72 hours.

Great game, fun mechanic. I had a problem with leve 4 though. I think it was a resolution problem since I couldn't see the "men in suits". Other than that i really enjoyed the game.

Interesting game, can be better explored to become a really good physics puzzler. Level design and learning curve was interesting. Just thought the audio was not fitting the theme of the game. Nice entry =)

This was a very well designed game. Level 12 was my favorite, for sure. Loved how you introduced new props in a way that felt easy enough to grasp.

Nice mechanic! Although it wasn't too logic that the mass changed with the orientation of the barrel :) And I'm sorry, but I thought the music was incredibly unfitting. I would expect more like a jazz noir track, kind of like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUAaDVmkQMc

Very weird but oddly fun. It was very satisfying to get the whole level to execute correctly. Cool art style too.

Loved the graphical style and the background music, not to mention the screaming the mafiosi do when barrels hit them xD

About the only thing I would nitpick is the fact that the theme was underused... aside from that, great entry!

Good luck :)

This was a really fun game! I played it til the end and the levels were all creative and fun. I even like some of the extra mechanics some of the levels had. This would make a nice mobile game.

Unfortunately I can't really play this as I don't have the flash player installed anywhere. :-(

Hey, good work on the art and great level design. I like how we have to concentrate on each barrel and the overall way shape shifting is used. Never the less the music was good too :D
All the best (:

I played all the levels, congratulations on the game, I liked!
but every level I had to immediately restart at the beginning because the enemies did not appear :O

Very nice, I played it through to the end. Amazing that you managed to create so many levels.

Good game. Great idea regarding the theme. Of course, it reminds me DonkeyKong. I think that you could increase quality of aesthetic with more time - something more colored. Well done ++

This was a fun game, it sort of fits the theme. Music is nice but doesnt match the chosen theme. Really nice graphics. It would be better if you made the mafia men fall faster since in some levels you have to wait for them to fall down to continue. I liked the level design, it was great fun, congrats!
