Your PC run out of space by Listonos
I despise running out of space on my SSD/Windows drive, so when I saw the theme I knew I will make a game about that. I wanted something action-paced and quick to play (I know you people have a lot of games to get through :)). And since this was my first time using SDL2, it had to be relatively simple game. This fruit ninja clone won't win the Innovation category but I hope it will make you smile.

Controls: Mouse
If you leave a constructive comment I will play your game and leave one as well <3

@leave :)
More types of icons, ones you should not cut for exmple could be nice.
Funny references. great job!
You've made me giggle and the gameplay is quite relaxing, although the mouse detection seems to occasionally miss a swipe. Also, is this in the right category? The graphics largely seem premade.
It's very fun !
It's repetitive, but I'm agree with others : variety of icons
I love the intro too ! It's make in context. :D
Only in the end it is getting a little bit messy because the already cut icons are a little bit slow on their way down.
@kristov Just some memes being thrown around nothing scary :laughing:
@4thwallstudios Yeah I was considering bomb style Origin launcher but ultimately decided to go easy this weekend (read be lazy).
@aviv871 Thanks and glad you liked.
@the-icy-one I am proud of that cursor :smile: I think it's still compo, I don't think remaking game icons just for sake of modification make sense, it's more about how you use them and I did have to cut them up. Similarly memes are just memes.
@devio I have not seen it miss personally, the logic is there has to be a cursor out-in-out of the icon so you need to be in motion. That being sad I would be the last person to mark my code as bug-less
@lars-erik Mission accomplies :smile:
@sdrrv :heart:
@quorusa Glad you like and I agree more icons would help. To be honest I just run out of installed games on my Steam.
@gulfick Thanks
@raffe *A single tear of happinnes rolls on Gaben cheek*
@bill-wheatley Thanks
@viater Summer saaaale :moneybag: Thanks.
@adonisdevs :smile:
@truc-e I quite like how the cursor turned out but I understand it's not for everyone. I kinda wanted everyone to finish on first try so I didn't want to make it too hard but I agree it could have been harder.
@itsjustjord Thank you!
@wizard Definitely PC master race :wink:
@pabricka Glad you liked it.
@lensflare We don't want to make it too hard :smile:, thanks though
@zachw136 Glad the summer sale had an impact!
@gilgusmaximus It's those little touches which sometimes sell the game right? Messy is good, just like summer sale :laughing:
game play: 5/5 Really addicting and fun
theme: 4/5 I really like what you did with the idea, not just deleting apps but slicing them
audio: 3/5 the sound effects were really quiet but the voices were loud
summery: I really enjoy this game, I chuckled alot, Good job!
Some possible improvements:
-Support fullscreen resolution
-make destroyed icons fade out, during summer sale you can't see what icons you've hit and what ones you haven't so you just end up swiping your mouse back and forth, because of which the game becomes more luck based instead of skill based
-bad items (AKA items that fill up your hard drive) like a download shortcut or a virus. This way the game also becomes more skill based.
Dope features:
-The looks! (Do I even need to explain?)
-The way the game starts.
-Increased difficulty over time (although the start still felt kind of slow, so you could try changing up the speed at which the "waves" like summer sale etc. pop up
Overall great game :D
Really nice graphics, simple controls and extremely relatable :D
I also feel like it should've had a loss condition that wasn't just failing to delete (bomb icons as others have mentioned, probably like the system32 folder or something), more icons, etc. but I definitely get not putting it in given the time constraints.
Also, one thing I would've liked to see would be a quicker ramp-up to the summer sale. I feel like it dragged on too long with the same old joke.
