Funny game and cool concept, though I found it really hard to actually befriend anyone. I don't know if I am just not coordinated enough, or if it is off, but I though I was hitting space when the bar was right on the green part, and I would still say something awkward or mean to them. Don't know... Loved the rest of it, though"}],"images":["ld33\/56031-e198f6f40050b4d8b242714868838d69.jpg","ld33\/56031-ae6027aebb25a9dae411f5012d0a50cd.jpg","ld33\/56031-7aa0a1d976428da5cc00abfbeb69f438.jpg","ld33\/56031-b93f1d241d6666452ec0eda75390663a.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/sh\/452d2humujp0f6e\/AACnCBK5xbKShOYYcDuGkE51a?dl=1","text":"Windows"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"8582","g_author":"56031","g_event":"LD33","g_eventkey":"29","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"8615","g_title":"Buddies for Baldwin","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"576","g_commentcount":"15","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/479518\/56031-shot0-1440467424.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/479518\/56031-shot1-1440467424.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/479518\/56031-shot2-1440467424.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/479518\/56031-shot3-1440467424.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Play as Baldwin the bridge troll on his quest to not die!
