Za Loopo! by NarRenArr

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

The events take place in some far away future in which evil living homophobic balloons began hunting down innocent gay people. The boss and creator of evil balloons had manipulated time and space and became immortal thanks to his ZA LOOPO! power. He had stolen our main characters girlfriend, so our samurai robot girl is chasing him while fighting other evil balloons, trying to kick the boss’s butt, save the other gays and most importantly her loved one.

Everything in this game is made by us: code, graphics, sound etc...

IMPORTANT:To play this game normally open it in fullscreen.

@curly and all, nice game :) maybe some powerups and ability to shoot (eventually limited by ammo). Well done :)

I like the general concept of the protagonist!

Couldn't really connect the dots between the name, the game and the story. Everything seems a bit arbitrary.
The gameplay itself does show potential, but needs a lot of work.

I genuinely have the feelings something went very wrong in the making of the game. D:

I loved the sounds. The gameplay needs a bit of work. I found that jumping and slicing the balloons could be really difficult. Also, I lost one time because all the people I had to save were at the very top of the screen and I couldn't jump high enough to save them 😞.

Ah, cool idea, nice reference as well! Totally got my jojo heart when the boss screams zaloopo aha! Took me forever to understand you could double jump though! Not sure I understood the story but I had fun playing!

Good job on the game. I kept on jumping but forgetting to attack.

I did it, i won and saved the....gays? It was easy to understand the game. I didn't need the slide. I couldn't reach some ballons very far up, not sure if i just wasn't quick enough or if it is possible.

@rongo-matane there is a double jump. Sorry, I forgot to mention that in the tutoril

Took some time to discover the double jump. If multiple people come at the very top, the character is not fast enough. If multiple balloons come at the very bottom and you miss the first one, then your character gets stunned just long enough that you can't slice the next ones.

Lol, This game has verry funny sounds when you save people ! Nice idea anyway, it's a funny way to use the subject ^^ I was surprised and laugh when the loop began again ^^ highscore view during the game would have been great undeed :)

It was fun, liked the sound effects and liked the loop, It didn't loop the first time I finished the game but the second play through it looped, the controls feel a bit stiff but other than that I enjoyed it.

The setup is ridiculously crazy - I'm not even sure what to think about it.

I liked the sound effects and ability to slide is something I don't see often. The graphics felt creepy to me - I think it's because of how the balloons "smiled" :laughing:

Its a interesting game. I really love the characters and background. Maybe the controls are a little "dry", if it makes sense. I also couldn't quite understand the concept of the loop, since it only happened once. But it's a really nice submission, guys!

The Good:

- Nice animation.
- Nice Creativity.
- Nice sounds.

The Bad:

- Baloons and robot graphics looks bad.
- The game is supported only at full screen.



Well Done!

@matthewrobo yeap XD. But also because the villain does ZA LOOPO, when you hit his body lopping the game. But yeah, they are hunged XD. Thanks for mentioning that

This was a fun run!

Fast classic gameplay with fitting sounds :slight_smile:. I liked the humour that extended from the hilarious setting to the characters drawn left handedly seemingly on purpose.

Some problems with the gameplay though: Couldn't reach the topmost balloons, was there a trick to it? Also I played it through several times and it wouldn't loop. Also I don't know if there is any use to the sliding as you could just smack the balloon.

I didn't understand the history of gays... I see robots, not gays. And why gay robots then?
Anyway, I like the fact that when you attack the character, it quickly falls down, it gives a feeling of power ! Thanks for this quick game!

Very surreal (as you might expect from a game about balloons kidnapping gay robots), but I found the whole thing enjoyable - very cute SFX and music too :grin: My favourite part was the 'ZA LOOPO' after killing the boss, cracked me up :laughing:
