Death Loop by BBrown

[raw]
made by BBrown for Ludum Dare 47 (JAM)

Here it is! I ran out of time so I am opting out of Audio and Graphics as I did not get a chance to get those implemented.I am planning on continuing development on this game separately from the submission to make a polished product! I will be posting the finished game on itch.io and making a blog post on Ludum Dare about it when it's ready for play testing!

For now, enjoy my prototype!

Press F to toggle the follow camera! Figure out ways to prevent poor Jimmy from dying over and over again! You're on your own in that regard. Good luck!

A start of something good I'm sure. I can't say much for ratings, but keep developing this, it could be good :)

I think you forgot to opt out of audio fyi. Cool idea for a precision clicking puzzle. Why did the green thing kill me? What was it?

@piscythe ah shoot you're right! haha woops! The green thing was supposed to be an open manhole haha. I never got around to the art :( I'll be polishing the game up, though, and posting a link to it when it's ready for more playtesting

I really enjoyed playing this game. Love the little dog cube at the end haha. Is there an actual way to break the loop? Not sure if i'm missing anything. Overall thought the concept was really great. Reminds me of death runs from counter strike only you try to keep the player alive instead of killing them.

Indeed, a nice game, at first I didn't get that you have to click to stop your character (a little explanation about the gameplay would be good for people to understand straight from the beginning). really nice idea tho, loved the kiding end ^^

It's an interesting prototype, you have some good ideas there for a game about being stuck in a loop.
