How does the game fit the theme?
You are climbing up a mountain. The Hike+ app will tell you about nearby hikers. If the hikers in front of you do not match their profile they cannot be trusted. Can you even trust the app?
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
None

The game is so fun to play
Super original concept and overall really polished.
I was a bit confused at first, so I would've appreciated an in-game tutorial and as someone already pointed out in another comment, I would've added a cursor to select the bad hikers more easily.
Great job! :D
awesome concept! underlying potential for a horror game perhaps,,,
Very fun concept, and I loved the apps and messages. It was a bit hard to select the right hiker, so maybe having an indicator of sorts would be great!
I'm glad you liked it. Thank you for the feedback some sort of highlight or even a cross hair should help make grabs easier. Appreciate you taking the time to check it out!
this game is SO fun! I’m not super great at it but its so satisfying when I do catch someone right at the last second for a detail
… and then inevitably die to the next group haha
I'm glad you enjoyed it! It's really funny to watch people play cause they do the exact same thing. One moment of excitement for getting someone then they slowly descend to their doom. Thanks for playing!
What a weird hike that was :) You nailed the messages, really funny!
Just a little different ;) Hopefully the next is better. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for playing!
I liked it, the idea of the app is great and the death messages are hilarious, who would've known that the person hiking in front of you is a serial killer, reminds me a bit of the papers please gameplay.
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you checking it out!
Really liked the core idea of quick thinking and the setting made it feel even more urgent.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for playing!
Interesting concept. A small crosshair would be nice to make sure I don't click on the wrong person.
That is a great idea! Thanks for the feedback and playing!
Very creative! My only criticism would be the binocular closing the app, other than that, still a great submission!
Thank you! I had it close the app so you could see what you were looking at although I guess then you can't see what your looking for lol. I'll make it so the phone auto opens when you stop looking through the binoculars. Thanks for playing and leaving feedback!
Such a good concept xD
From now on I will never trust hikers with cameras. Never.
It’s a little tough to play without a mouse but overall, great entry!
Yeah they have the camera so they can take a picture as you fall off the mountain lol!
I didn't even think about playing without a mouse. I'll have to think of ways to make that easier. Thanks for the feedback and playing!
So funny!
Thanks for playing!
This game really made me feel on edge (pun intended)
Grabbing and throwing people off is really fun and the fact that they scream and then explode after is satisfying for some reason haha
Nice entry and keeping to the theme
Lol! Glad you enjoyed the game and thanks for playing! Appreciate your kind words.
I hope I never meet any of you in a mountain. I will not hold back.
also, did you guys record the sounds yourselves? it made it even better.
Noted. Next time I see you in the mountain I will be ready. Thank you for playing!
I recorded the sounds myself with a webcam and briefly edited them in Audacity. It was kind of funny doing it but I thought they came out pretty fitting for the game.
LOL I laughed when I can throw them away
Lol! Thanks for playing!
This is very fun! Very creative with the auto movement mechanic and the theme idea. The first few times I played I just got thrown, so later I threw every single person, trust NO one lol. Cool game!
It's safest when everyone gets thrown lol! Appreciate your kind words. Thank you for playin!
nothing beats going for a chill hike and throwing suspicious hikers off a cliff on a laid back Sunday afternoon.
Hilarious and creative game idea, enjoyed it a lot.
It has been my favorite activity of mine for years. Finally decided to do it in a game instead of real life... ;) Thanks for playin!
You're mental, you know that? Lol. This is more fun than it has any right to be. Also, screw Garret! I die to Garret more than anything.
Appreciate it! Thank you for playing. And for all future hikes throw Garret on sight!
Really funny game! Did get chucked immediately when that guy turned the corner lol
Hahaha! Happens to me to and I know their coming. Glad you liked it and thank you for playing!
Haha this is really great!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for playing!
