LectureRush by FooMar

You are a professor who wants nothing more than to finish his lecture in peace and go home. But like most of them tend to do, your lecture hall is not empty.
Instead it's filled with students of the worst and most annoying kind one can possibly imagine.
Will you survive?
P.S. If you want more than 10 fps in some scenes download the exe...

The game is also quite challenging since you have to multitask: place students, kick out some others, and evade paper planes. On top of that you have to watch out for the profs temper.
A bit of constructive criticism:
Highlighting the controls in the tutorial, and giving an option to turn off music/sfx would be nice. It's pretty hard to keep the temper in check once it's a bit high up. A cool idea would be to have nerds in the lecture who make the prof feel a bit better (:
We also had ideas for differnt types of students. Some that annoy others around them. Creeps that grant more points when seated next to studends of the opposite gender. Stuff like that. Sadly we just didn't have enough time to implement them.
Good job !
Nice job!
Quite original. This game showed me how bad I am at multitasking. Thanks for that :)
I loved playing it :)
thought it was an endless game until the game over popup came up
The idea is original and well executed. I really appreciated the little details of the graphics, and the changing environment as you keep trying. It is sometimes a bit hard to see the objects of distracted students, but the sound effects help a lot. (and they are great)
You did great job!
(I guess you used godot?)
Thanks for your answer!
Try our game too, maybe you'll like it)
And pretty hilarious.
The only nitpick would be that it is not always as clear, which row the students will enter. But it is a small detail.
Overall, good job folks!
gameplay at 37:00ish: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/298139021##
A small tutorial of sorts could be nice tho.
Lastly, a small detail, I found the professor's exploding head's sound obnoxiously loud.
