Tangerine Massacre by arvz

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

You are an Unstable Psychopath Pumpkin Rabbit hell bent on killing ALL the Tangerinos! Don't let them stop you, or take down as many of them as you can before they stop you! You're not the only thing that's unstable. The floors are too!

Controls

WSAD - Move

Mouse - Aim

Left Click - Attack

How to Play

  1. Chop the Tangerines for points! Tangerine-How-to-Attack.gif

  2. The Tangerines will throw apples at you in the hopes of thwarting your rampage. However, a well timed attack on an incoming apple will DEFLECT it back at the Tangerine! Mastering this is the key to a high score! Tangerine-How-to-Deflect.gif

  3. Moving around will crack and eventually crumble the unstable ground. Destroying the field will also give you points! But be careful, if you destroy too much of the field, it will be harder to move around and make you vulnerable to the Tangerine assault!

Have fun and comment below your high score! The developer high score is 814.

A quit or pause button or with keys would be great. The art is really cute and fancy, with very solid animations and nice feel. Good work!

Pretty fun game but I quickly found a way to play forever. I like to hear the screams of enemies I've juiced

Great game! Im very impressed with the art, the way characters are animated is so smooth and lively, its amazing. I encountered some little bugs like enemies standing on the air, enemies spawning inside of each other, enemies spawning inside player but they didn't pull me out the gameplay. Good job! My highcore was at around 400

I really enjoyed playing this game. The level of polish on the visuals is great. There were a few things that felt missing in the level though. I would love to hear music (which could enhance the mood and character of the game), and some vital sfx were absent (for example, a sound to signify that an enemy is preparing the throw an apple). The combat sounds felt great, but the death of an orange sound was quite annoying. The orange halves were a great touch! Gameplay and visuals were by far the standout features, and work really well. Gameplay would be enhanced with more attention to audio. Thanks for sharing. Great work!

Models and squashy-stretchy animation is great!
The tangerines had it coming.

The game is simple but feels good to play and looks great. Main character is very cute. One bug? I had while playing is that the ground was destroyed under me but since I wasn't moving, nothing happened. Another thing I would say is that graphically it feels a bit weird to only be able to face 4 directions when enemies are throwing projectiles from all angles. Good entry though, reminds me of some old flash games that are all about dexterity.

The visual design and animations are great! Really simple gameplay that makes it easy to keep going. I agree that a quit option to close the game would be nice, but really great job overall!

This is a really solid entry! I got 580 points. The game is simple, but very well polished, with all the camera movement, white flash on hitting tamgerine, ecamera shake etc. Meteors are a nice addition.
The art is super good and cute, I especially love the ragdoll tangerine halves.
My main complaint would be that reflecting bullets doesn't seem right - it very often doesn't count when it looks like it should.

Great game and very polished! Got a high score of 392, could see these mechanics being a fun full game with more iteration! Keep making games!

Spotted this game on twitter first + tracked it back down to LD! Super polished with gorgeous little vfx and attention to detail for motion/impact/idea! Fantastic job!

I love the little characters in game, I DON'T WANT TO CHOP THEM. Overall its so cute and very polished looking! It was a bit hard to close the game at the end without any menus or anything. But the cuteness makes up for it.

The attacking animations look really nice, and they feel fun to use. I love how the fruits look after theyre cut in half.

Overall well done \o/

Really fun game it feels great to cut the targerines in half, i only miss a background music, it would help so much to set the mood. Other than that great game, good job!

Pretty fun, great attack animation. The tangerine scream is pretty funny but becomes grating pretty quick. Nice job!

Great visuals! It's a shame there's no music to go along with them, I feel like a good jam would really improve the feel of this game. I like the core mechanic of the ground slowly deteriorating, but felt the enemies themselves were a bit too accurate. Maybe I'm just bad lol, but I found dodging exceptionally difficult. Solid entry though, didn't encounter any bugs or weirdness, so good job on the polish :)

Cool game, well executed too! My only problem with it is that deflecting the apples feels like it has to be weirdly timed sometimes. Maybe I have to be facing it directly rather than at an angle but there were times where I definitely should've deflected them but I got hit instead. Everything else about it feels and plays well. Having the floor crumble and come back later for a higher score was a great addition!

Very good game. The graphics are extremly good and the gameplay is interesting. I think the one thing that is lacking is music.

Super cool game!

Have you guys used any particular library or Unity asset to create those VFXs?

Cool game, gread graphics and animations. The game is hard and I think there is some spam prevention on parries but It just felt like it does not detect all collisions. I get that the game should be skill based and spam should not work but then there needs to be better feedback on it, maybe slower attack rate in general. Other than that I didn't get enough feedback on getting hurt and needed to intentionally look for my health to see that I was hurt.
