Wild Deuce Chase by anchoredtoad

[raw]
made by anchoredtoad for Ludum Dare 50 (JAM)

You're a park manager overseeing the pride and joy of your local town: the park!
Visitors come from far and wide ready to enjoy the amenities you've procured for them.
One of them messed with the goose, now you must prepare for the deuce.
Delay the inevitable, your visitors becoming dissatisfied with stepping in goose poo. If you need help and you have the taxes, you can stop by the maintenance shed and purchase some employees to help you out.

Controls
WASD - Movement
RMB - Clean Poop / Interact with maintenance shed
LMB - Pick up / Throw

I didn't actually play because it needs to be downloaded to windows, but the theme looks freaking hilarious. Nice job!

Theme is really fun. Can't run sometimes. This game has weird charm, can't stop playing :) Easy to understand.

More accurate goose simulator than Untitled Goose Game

Notice a human acting like a goose.

Literally said out loud "WTF is happening" but I laughed. So much ridiculousness in one package (quirky music, a goose smacked me with a bat???) but I enjoyed myself. Great job!

Nice entry, very difficult! Rushing to the shed and trying to buy stuff without getting overrun. I cleared such a long path just for one goose to drop a deuce at the beginning

Basically, you met the deadline and it's a good point for the small team. I advise you to think through the level design, cause it wasn't easy for me as a player to play it. You can complete the game to make it more playable. Good luck with the future projects.

Hilarious use of the theme and I really liked the art. The sounds were hilarious too but got repetetive after some time. I couldn't last more then a minute though, those ducks with bats got me good LOL. Enjoyed this game!

Now, I say this coming from a person who has made some pretty weird games for some of my friends... but this is one of the strangest games I have ever played. As soon as the main menu loaded up, I just sat there for a good 5 minutes, taking in what I am witnessing. After mustering the courage to press the play button, I was even more dumbfounded by the gameplay.

But you know what? I liked it. Yeah, I *really* liked it! Thank you for getting a laugh out of me, and for making this great game!

Started I think 3 play throughs? couldn't seem to stop a goose far from my sight from dropping a duece ending the game. Definitely funny I think? Sitting here baffled and chuckling, so I think 5/5 for humor at least!

Hilarious and tough! Loved it! Volume sliders don't work btw and a quit button would have been nice but no biggie.

The concept is hilarious, I love how chaotic this game is. I couldn't last long enough to use much of the maintenance shop. Maybe you could get money for every cleaned poop rather than it being on a timer.
