Pigeon Splat by adjo

[raw]
made by adjo for Ludum Dare 53 (COMPO)

A pigeon's passion is to deliver poop to every person's head. In this game, that's what you do! Try to make sure nobody gets past without being pooped on, otherwise it will start to deplete your life force.

Controls: - Left/right to change directions - Up to flap your wings - Space to poop

Make sure you flap your wings as you can't touch the floor.

There are a few different types of people, to hit the people with umbrellas, make sure you don't get too close.

Built with Lua and LÖVE.

Awesome funny little game, it's like flappy bird but I can score points!

Funny and satisfying gameplay. I found it fun to try and get hits from as high as possible. Maybe it would be interesting to take height into account, like some kind of "trick-shot".

I must say, your game is quite amusing! The cool sound effects really add to the overall experience. There's something so satisfying about hitting people from a great height

I had a good laugh playing this game!

Its humour is its biggest strength would have loved to see some music to go with it.

59 poops! I AM THE POOPMASTER!
that's a lot of fun and very satisfying that the poops appear on the targets where you hit them!

Very funny concept, I love how the poop accumulates if you poop on the same person twice.

I'll admit it, I'm not a fan of the "fantasy" of your game. That said, it is really satisfying to play. Learning to anticipate the trajectory of your "projectile" and combining that with the varying speeds of the NPCs is really engaging. I really enjoyed my time with it!

I only got like 48 poops, but it was decently fun. I like how there are a variety of people that can show up with different ways to avoid the poop.

Pretty cool game, simple, yet fun to play. It was really nice touch to have different "enemies" - with umbrella, on scooter, etc. Also it was impressive to see how much poop you can stack on one single person! Keep up the good job

WOW, this game is fun! Took me a while to get it to run as I never used lua or love before, but it was totally worth it :D Also nice graphics.

This was a really fun game. I played a few rounds but I don't know what score I got, because it was too easy to restart after you lost and miss your score. The visuals and controls were great. I especially liked how you had to use your momentum to aim the poop. The only thing missing was some music to vibe to.

Pretty cool game, in my opinion the pigeon could have a little more upward acceleration to make it easier to keep it higher in the air. I liked the idea of having ​​different types of enemies.

Simple, funny and very well implemented idea. THe only thing that I believe that you missed is some kind of music in the background. Anyway, good job! Keep up!
