A Messed Up Elephant And Some Mean Racoons by ElmoEinstein

[raw]
made by ElmoEinstein for Ludum Dare 51 (JAM)

Not my proudest work, i wanted to get more done.

Controls

You explode every 10 seconds, killing everything in a radius. How many racoons can you kill in a minute?

WASD to move.

Rating. Dont be afraid to rate badly. I dont think its very good myself. This took way to long to make and to many late nights. Shows my inexperience (especially with 3d). Cant wait to do another Jam and make a better game! This is my first ever export.

What mess have I created lol! Kinda started trolling at the end

I've had trouble with raccoons in the past, seems like an effective way to deal with it. Final score: 36

Excepting the fact that there are some strange colliders and some things else, the game is good and the idea is very funny! Keep working on it!
Come to play my game and rate it!!

Honestly love the concept. The hallways colliders were a little wonky so it was hard to get down some passageways, and the music was driving me bonkers, but it was fun overall! I'd love to see this concept expanded upon!

The controls are really smooth, shame that the elephant has difficulties going through small gaps

Be careful with the

The openings were a bit small, but maybe that's part of the challenge. Pretty good game!

Overall: Funny. entertaining for one run. mechanically it all works and you got your entry done and submitted!

Fun: I'm glad for having played and experienced. I won't be doing a second run though. 31.

Innovation: No mechanic is being pushed to new limits or explored thoroughly here so I can't say its innovative per se.

Theme: Explode every 10 seconds :ballot_box_with_check:

Graphics: I like the visual and graphics of the walls.

Audio: Nah nah nah nah; nah nah nah nah nah.

Humor: Meme game done correctly.

Mood: trolly.

Very good use of the theme!

Just one note. From the rules:
> You’re free to use 3rd party Artwork/Music/Audio assets, or assets you previously created, but we ask that you OPT-OUT of the respected voting categories (Graphics, Audio). You can opt-out of a voting category when you submit your game.

The game is fun tho and pretty challenging! I got a final score of 24.

Interesting idea, mental game, would be great if the racoons were running away from you. The soundtrack is stuck in my head now, thanks..

Some pretty nice lighthearted fun. The collision is a bit wonky which lead to controlling the elephant being frustrating at times but was still a pretty fun experience (although since raccoons are my favourite animal I'm gonna have to dock you a point there :sob:).

Final score of 42 on my first run
