This is very challenging, I can only make it to the bedroom before time runs out. This has an interesting art style. Nice entry.

Huge fan of the music! I did not expect this gameplay, The Pink Floyd album was a nice easter egg ;)

I love the fact that at some point early in the development process you thought 'How about a humanoid pig goes crazy and wrecks his apartment because the weather forecast looks a bit iffy?'. Keep up the good work!

Really nice artwork but kinda slow pacing for my taste. For 72 hours I am super surprised by the story u wanted to tell. Thanks for your dedication :)

The artwork and audio are quite good and the game-play is fun.

Very simple concept, but very fun gameplay. I wish there was a way to skip the intro when you restart though... but maybe that wouldn't have been a problem if I wasn't too slow :(

I've enjoyed the story telling at the beginning, and great artwork super funny too, the only thing i missed on this game is a more impactful sfx for when you hit and destroy something, since it is a big aspect of this game. Other than that great work!

Thanks all for your comments !

@firetwoonenine Sorry if the timer is too short, we've debated how much time was "challenging but not too much" until the very last minutes ! But it's not an easy thing to measure.

I agree about the intro skip. As it is, it kinda breaks the flow :)

So funny game ! The sense of humor is catching. Special mention for the pig's transformation. I would appreciate a transformation's sprite when we destroy everything with him. Congrats to the team (and thanks to bellatrion who test our game !)
Quite Good

Fun game! My favorite part was the effort put into the story and the music. The effort it must have taken to make all the art assets is impressive as well. Great work!

Really fun story, art and music! The timer was pretty tight but I got through on my third attempt. Then I realized you had an easy build (that I didn't need in the end :D), but after playing a ton of too hard LD entries I really appreciate it!

I like the story elements and the way the art led up to the events. I was not expecting it to go where it did haha and I had fun! I really liked the audio a lot. Great job!

Awesome game! the attention to details (arrow that expands as you get closer, smooth rotation etc...) really gave it a good quality, also really love how the game is build for all those platforms which is something you don't see very often

I really enjoyed the game. Thank you so much for this fun experience, even though it was short.)

A cute and straightforward game.

Incroyable, vous avez crédité les typographies.

C'est un concept simple, mais bien mené. Ce qui est bien, c'est qu'il y a une différence entre objet cassable ou pas. Le genre de petit détail (une vibration...) dont on ne se rend pas consciemment compte mais qui permet de savoir quand s'arrêter. Ainsi il n'y a pas la frustration "mais qu'est-ce que je n'ai pas cassé".

Les graphismes sont bien et collent bien à l'ambiance (tout colorée et adorable), mais peut-être qu'il y a une trop grosse différence entre le titre-intro-outro et les sprites en eux-mêmes ? Ça provoque un choc, et peut-être qu'il aurait fallu plus harmoniser (par exemple avoir un contour noir aux sprites).

La musique et les sons vont bien avec l'ambiance.

J'ai joué sur Web, mode facile. Je n'aurais probablement pas réussi sans.
Un jeu sans prise de tête qui fait plaisir.
