Red Roses by unicornpooping
This is Jam Entry, since it is using elements from an older unfinished LD entry.
You get most of the story from the game itself. It's really up to interpretation what the game is saying, but I took the theme of being "the villain" and used it in an ironic way.
The controls are simple and straight forward. You move with the arrows and stomp with the space bar.
I really want to know what you think of this little experiment.
It's Windows EXE only, so sorry for everyone else. The java version just won't work properly. I'll still try and work on it for the future.

Seems like a good idea, and I think I got the message of the game, but I wish there had been a bit more substance to it. I really like the mood of it though, I think the idea was very well executed.

The graphics are great and the music fits the mood. It could have used a bit more content, though. A very nice game anyway :D

My AVG thought your exe contained a Trojan horse, you might want to check that out.

Weird. It passed every anti virus program i put it through.

That was... rather short. I started to wonder if the game was just picking flowers, because I kept picking them and nothing happened.

Looked really nice and had great music. Game felt weird at times. Was too short, yet you spent too long picking flowers. Which is like, the whole game. Definitely was expecting a twist at the end though. Also it waited a loooong time on that final title screen.

Not much here for a jam entry, I like the intro, never got past the stomp roses part.

Nice visuals and atmosphere. I think, you should always make clear, that the player progresses, if he does something. I picked so many flowers without knowing, if it will end or if I should do something other. Then after collecting enough, there was this screen and if I press the left arrow key, I see my character walking but I have no chance to determine, if I walk on a spot or forward and, if it will end. The ending of throwing roses was funny - made me smile :D

I like the moonwalk at the end. :)

I didn't try it, because AVG thought it had a trojan virus.
