🕹️Controls :

Hold and release to propulse yourself.
The longer the further.
This will consume part of yourself.
That's it.

Tips: - Collect green mini boogers 🟢 to fuel yourself and raise your combo multiplicator - Don't hit hairball (reset your counter) - Don't get stuck in the hair on the "wall" - Score is based on distance traveled and combo - You might want to hear the music when your combo is high...

TEAM

We were a team of 3 for this one.

  • Quentin Ferré - swiss army knife talent (lots of art, lots of design, some prog, few sounds)
  • Yannick Montes - code or die
  • Adrien Coppola (Azaaroth) - just listen to the music, and google his name. Or his youtube.

There is always that one game that takes the theme in the weirdest possible direction :smile:. This was genuinely fun to play, once I figured out how to time it right and the trade off between being big and small I had a bit of flow going on. Overall it's a simple game that doesn't waste your time and doesn't take itself seriously which is what I like in a jam game. Nice work!

The idea of the game is as simple as possible, but the visuals are cool, didn't understand why the apk file weighs so much.

Incredible and hilarious take on the theme! A couple years ago I made a similar game but with a q-tip collecting ear wax. Great minds think alike lol

The game plays very well.

That being said.

When you have a nice shot that takes you a long way from the finger it seems to catch up immediately. That should be looked at.

How do you know the high score?

Thanks for the fun play

@beebster-games thanks for playing! That's intended, the finger is here to force tempo o the player. High score is based on distance x combo

Ost slaps, and the visuals throw me back to the days when I played Boogerman on Sega.

lmao great game, creative take on the theme. Mechanics worked well, nothing janky or unexpected happened, and the game was a proper challenge. Solid art, solid music, solid gameplay... what more can you ask for? Good work!
