Not my Apples! by Marrack
It's Harvest time! Time to deliver those freshly picked apples, but there is something lurking in the farm. Something bouncy, and hungry for Apples!
Dodge those bouncy creatures while carrying the apples. Do not hesitate to bait them with some apples, Some profit is always better than no profit.
Made in less than 1 day for Ludum Dare 43
Didn't include sounds because I ran out of time and energy. Started late because of earlier commitments.

Great job, loved the winning message that we had delivered "most of" the apples safely. Good use of the theme!

Interesting game, certainly quite innovative. Did I miss the music somehow? I think you had a very good implementation of the theme, because in my opinion, a sacrifice is something you choose yourself, which I don't see on many other games.

@PancakeFriday i had less than a day to make the game because of rl commitments so i just skipped on the audio part, also because thats the weakest part of my game making skillset :D. @PancakeFriday @rexpeppers thanks for the feedback

Cool game. A cooldown timer would have been nice for the enemies to steal your apples. Sometimes I lost all the apples in under half of a second due to multiple collisions by the same enemy. But I really like the concept. Good job!

@yrasin there is actually a cooldown timer but its fast thats why, or maybe that is a bug that i need to look at. thanks for the feedback :D

Very simple game yet fun and addictive! A bit of sound would have been great. Great job on making this game :-)

I like the pixel art. It's simple and functional. Game theme and mechanic is fun approach for the theme. I tried to hold on all my apples at first, but soon understood that I need to sacrifice some to keep more of them. I wish there were some sound effects though.

Cute ! I really tried to gather all the stars, but after a few tries I gave up xD. I guess that's a form of sacrifice :') ? Good job :D ! Some music would have been great though ! And maybe a bar to show where we are in the level ?

@lise-carreel its doable, you just have to get alot of value out of 1 apple. like 2 or 3 chompers chasing one apple. @keppu yea i tried to make a bg music and some effects but its not up to par with the quality that i want, so i ditched it cause im running out of time. thanks for the feedback :D

Good take on the theme, shoot apples or lose them otherwise. I think the game needs some balancing though. As it, it seems rather random and a bit too easy. Dropping apples then picking them up again seemed to work as well as trying to shoot at the enemies, as he enemies tend to disappear.

@loveapplegames its easy to finish but the goal is to get 3 stars. afaik you cant just do drop and pick to get 3 stars. good points tho thanks for the feedback
