Blob stomp by Noobman64
Have you squished any Blobs today? Its satisfying like popping a zit. Its therapeutic like acupuncture. For the low low cost of 2 minutes of your time you may experience the wonder and pleasures of Blob stomping. It reduces stress, it restores confidence, it cures baldness!!!
- Does not actually cure baldness. Blob Stomping is not approved by the FDA. Consult with your physician before partaking in extensive stomping. If your Blob lasts for more than 48 hours, please contact NASA *
Its just a tiny game about stomping tiny creatures. You get 6 seconds in 3 levels to squish some Blobs. It won't blow you away but it will only take a couple of minutes to experience. Built with Godot 4. Audacity, Piskel, Gimp and so many YouTube tutorials
The itch.io version is working for me (windows 11, Firefox and chrome). I uploaded the same file here and its not working so I'm not sure what's going on with that. Linux version is not tested but should work. Please let me know if you are a Linux user. The file named "20241005LDLittlecreaturesSource.zip" is the source. It has all the scripts Godot stuff and "art" assets
Another Ludum Dare and I'm here uploading my game seconds away from the deadline again! This is my first time successfully submitting a game made with Godot. As usual a lot of Ideas were abandoned due to poor time management. I was hoping to have the player buy upgrades between the levels. The blobs would have health and the stomp would have had cool-down but it was not meant to be. I ran out of time for music but I got a few sound-effects in before the time ran out. I don't know how you wizards do it but I've never had time to finish my list. Anyway I'm off to take a break but I look forward to coming back and playing your beautiful games. Thanks for taking a look at my page and I hope you play my game before leaving :)

I also find it a bit funny that the blobs will always try to summon a demon to get rid of me no matter whether or not I stomped any blobs in the any of the levels. I guess they just feel intimidated by the ominous hovering giant foot, lol
@sviborg Thank you for the kind words! That's exactly What I was going for. I'm not a skilled game developer so I go for basic concepts. Hearing that people got a couple of minutes of simple fun out of my game is very rewarding for me.
@atahan Thanks for playing my game! I'm glad folks play long enough to notice the "twist". I needed a way to end the game. Originally I wanted to have a world devouring monster like Cthulhu show up but as you can tell, my artistic skills leave much to be desired so I opted for a humble asteroid in the end, haha
very simple mecahnics but the humor and vibes go a long way
more music or SFX would help as well
@nazariglez Thanks for the kind words! I agree, I had recorded a few more sound effects (which are in the source code zip) for missing your stomps that I didn't get to use.
@thomas-bringer Thanks for taking the time to try out my game, I appreciate the kind words
@sdcorpse Thank you, thank you! :3
I felt sad for the little blobs until their intentions were revealed....
@daniel-finch Thank you, that's a good suggestion! I wanted to go for something super quick that everyone would finish before it overstayed its welcome, but an optional longer level would have been good :)
