The Bomb Office by Turtle Games

[raw]
made by Turtle Games for Ludum Dare 49 (JAM)

Are you ready to become a professional bomb diffuser? .. or you might just die halfway trying..

Anyways.. to find another way to introduce you to this job, please cut the green cables with your scissor hands (use your left mouse button to do so), after you cut the green cable the bomb will be diffused.. and you will be safe and ready to live another day!

Happy bomb diffusing and one last thing.. don't let the bombs touch the conveyor belt or anywhere else for they will also explode!

Very fun
some of the objects are really hard to move without triggering the bomb :P
Playing the game in the browser makes all the difference :)
Great work!

Loved the idea - I went in expecting Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes and enjoyed the different. I did have an issue where no more bombs seemed to spawn? I'm not sure if that's me misunderstanding the game or something else!

Yes, excellent work on balancing the frustrating fiddlyness of physics and making it an enjoyable game! The scissor movement is spot-on perfect :ok_hand:

I just had to try again and again. Maybe I can now put "bomb defusal" skills in my CV! :bomb:

Thought of keep talking and nobody explodes right away. I think it should be VR too :)

Tight controls, loved the scissor mechanics. Audio is terribly awesome too! Managed to get 5.

Good controls and easy to learn to play, I think it would help to move new bombs onto the center of the screen faster as I was spending more time on the left side or just waiting for a new one to arrive but otherwise it was fun!

Dude nice! I died on the tutorial and had to restart but after that it was surprisingly more fun to control than I thought it'd be. I wish I could have seen you record some of the funnier sound effects xD

This was a lot of fun and it was pretty funny to see what kinds of things the bombs would be covered in coming out of the conveyor belt. I think I struggled to manipulate the scissors easily but it was still pretty fun to play. I loved the comedic aspects a lot.

Such a fun game ! It's always a great idea to combine not so precise movement with physics ! (the physics got the best of me a few times)
Amazing work, I loved every second of it !

This game was a fun little romp and reminded me of some simulator style games. I feel like with some polish and work this could easily be its own release great job!

the gameplay of using the mouse to control the scissors felt very satisfying

Quite original idea. Love the aesthetics and effects. One small observation is to make the scissors stand out a little more. it took me a few seconds to get the idea but it's nothing serious. Had fun anyway, good job!

Very interesting concept. I found it really hard to click on the wires as the dynamite rotated. Also, it'd be nice to have some indication of what movement causes them to insta-explode. Overall fun game!

Very fun concept, only thing is I didnt like when the wires rotated away from me. Besides that it was a really well executed game!

I gave you all my feedback during my stream earlier, so I don't have much to add. I just wanted to say again that this is a cool concept and an excellent achievement for a jam game.
