I can't stop thinking about this game. I first played it when it came out and to this day it's a ton of fun. You should really be proud of this project.
Awesome Strategy game Maya! Very Fun Polished Game.
21600 high score on first try. I watched ZKyle play and he is a genius at the game. This game has the potential to be a big hit. Leaderboards were a great idea. Good choice on balance. Was a joy to be constantly behind.
this better not get an android port because I will be addicted
wow! I didn't expect a full polished indie game! Thjis is definetly the best game in here I have seen so far! The art was exceptional, the soundtrack amazing, and the game itself was very fun! I just scored the new second place with 700k! I have no idea what the first place did, to get this many points!
Nice game! Gets out of hand rly quickly XD but I managed the leaderboard just on 7th place...is there a bonus for throwing villagers in the portals?
Only the bonus of losing the game faster! XD
Amazing game! (Will give a proper review on the submission page)
Nice game, Sounds and Mechanics are great.
Wonderful game! From amazing art to polished mechanics, to sound design, everything is near-perfect! I even managed to get the second place (400k score) on my third try. I'll definitely come back to play it again later.
Thrilled to hear that you enjoyed it! Thank you for the kind words :) impressive score, too!
Is Stephen Hubbard the same Stephen who is an instructor for GameDev.tv?
If it's a good thing - then yes I am.
if it's a bad thing - I plead the 5th
Good thing. Your Unity 2D RPG course is awesome!
Ahhh so good to hear! Glad you liked it ^^
it was fun to watch you work on the art for this. this got really crazy after awhile! i managed to get on the leaderboard for now :D
This is a fun game, requiring precision and thinking skills, as well as attention to detail when picking up an "animal" or "human" to sling. I don't have any added suggestions. Thanks for posting, Please try out my game here. Block Runner 2D by Bradenn (itch.io)
