Platforms are really slippery.

I didn't manage to reach the park, even if I do everything at the speed of light (there is only one beer between the first boxes?)

And I didn't find the matching with the "Running out of space" theme.

Nice 2D graphics and animations

Have a nice day!

@falk-bruskeland thanks man ^^ and @sdrrv it's a creative interpretation of how Homeless people dont actually feel like they have a space in normal day to day. reality :b I do agree that it's a stretch haha. But for my first game i am happy with it ^^

I tried to use your HTML5 link but it came up as a 404?

Really good graphics and music. I can kinda see how the theme fits in too, its certainly a really creative way of implementing it. Controlls felt a little slippery at first but when I got used to it they made the game more fun. Well done! :D

By the way. Like some people already pointed out, the HTML5 link gives a 404.

Thanks @earnso Thats seems to have fixed it and @danielefisher It should work for you now :)

@albin Thanks for the kind words Albin ^^ And yeah the Theme was really not my first choice so i had to spin it as hard as i could to make something i would enjoy working on haha.

I'm sorry but I think I didn't understand the story of this game. So you are a drunk old man and you need to get to the park before you fall asleep right? But why do we need to go to the park? Why not to my house? Is there a reason I can't go to my house? Did my family abandon me? I am homeless? If so, how could I afford the beer that started this whole event?
So many unanswered questions. I hope you will make a sequel addressing them all!

@REBDC Maybe for the next game jam haha

I will continue to build upon the homeless lore xD

Really nice graphics and mood. But the controls are a little bit frustrating. And when I finally made it above the first trash thingy the next beer was hidden. I thought it is already hard enough.

14. Aug 2018 · 13:20 UTC

Yeah i made some patches fixing the difficulity of the game :b once the game jam is over i am gonna update it ^^

I loved the old mans animation, especially the hair when jumping! Sorry I couldn't beat it on stream, but I did enjoy it! Thanks for sharing! Difficulty is always the hardest thing to judge during these game jams, I've made a lot of game jam games that no one could beat myself.

@ursagames Thanks for the kind words man ^^ I have two states of animation for the jump. falling and ascending. :b:

And yeah hopefully for my next one i will be able to judge difficulty better ^^

Hahahahahaha, lovely animations, nice sound, found the controls very difficult though (almost a little annoying). I would recommend working with transform.translate instead of the physics engine for this sort of thing. If you'd prefer using physics, I might've added more friction to the 2D physics material.
Hope that helps you with any future projects ;)

I think the difficulty is a reflection of how drunk the player is. If thats the case, make the player less drunk XD.

Wow, this is hard. I managed to find and drink only two beers... :D - It is hard to control but it is probably intent, right? As it is hard to control drunk body... ;)

Graphics and music are great! I would've liked the controls to be a little tighter. I also would've liked it if the game was a little easier and had a time trial aspect to it. Making replay ability a little higher!

Other than that, I think this was a good entry!

@fmressel

Thanks for all the great feedback ^^

And yeah i should have spent more time on the controls, it's the main thing i cringe at everytime i replay it :D
