It sounds like it wasn't easy, but you made it and got something I can play.\n\nThere's some cool stuff here, nice pixel art, music, voice work, various screen transitions including a story and credits, a high score, several kinds of enemies and powerups, etc etc!  It's kind of a wild ride the way it all comes together, probably meaning a smaller tighter game was the right target, but you definitely should feel good about hitting a lot of content.\n\nI ran into two small problems: first it took me a while to figure out that Z was jump (I think the instructions said it was A?) and I kept getting stuck on rain gutters.  I'm talking about the thing that looks like this: https:\/\/imgur.com\/a\/Ix6GN\n\nI would get stuck on those and be unable to pass, and my life would keep ticking down.. eventually I'd either die or randomly become unstuck.\n\nOther than that I was able to zoom around the city high on drugs and eating garbage, crash some rooftop parties with my sick jumping skills, and try not to embarrass myself by puking.\n\nYou can be proud of finishing your first LD!\n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"lautregars","author_uid":"1008540","time":"2017-12-04T17:36:48Z","epoch":1512409008,"modified":1512409008,"text":"Shit !

But because you're ruining the only good citizens's afternoon, the cops gains much speed.\n\nAll these things cumulates, making terry puking on himself while full drugged, and even only gameplay-styled it will bring your death closer, but you need them to go forward : it plays on a balance between the do and the don't, but at the end Terry dies or get cuffed.

You're like the master of the hobos, and World Champion of The Harsh Life of Terry. You can add that to your CV :D (if it weren't forbidden, i would add your name with a terry and a golden cup to the main menu screen.

The cops are behind you and want you cuffed, so you have to run... But you know that you're a video game character, and you'll have to die sometimes.

But you only have rubbish to eat, stealing barbecue's are rare... The more you'll eat, and consume drugs to stay alive, the more you'll lose life and you'll be hungry later !
