How does your game fit the theme?
When it comes to countdowns, nothing tends to inspire fear in thriller films & TV more than the ones on bombs. Only in this game it's a large novelty fuse counting down in length and you're vainly trying to blow it out..

I’m out of breath irl now
I don't understand the hype. I found the experience boring, monotonous and expected more because it is the most rated game. I guess we can't really qualify a game by its popularity.
One simple concept executed to perfection! The bursts of anxiety and relaxations are top notch thanks to the audio design (which is incredibly powerful and hilarious at the same time), the minimalist although detail art direction is beautiful and the game ask for it to be mastered! Amazing!
Pretty cool take and execution of the theme
This was so elegant, and hilarious! I forgot to breathe at one point :D Most people (like myself) used a countdown to the bomb, but you truly let us stop it. And the looney tunes sound effects were truly a great choice. Beautiful visual composition too. Glad to have played it
Fun game, simple concept and great polish! I managed to survive for 60 seconds.
Really fun and creative concept with nice art work and style
Perfectly fits the theme while being amazing.
Way more enjoyable than I could ever expect. I was immensely impressed by how good it felt to play and do well, kept hitting that retry button too many times and i had to force myself to stop!
I'm fully expecting you to sell this concept to an arcade machine business, cause I can imagine this being right at home in any arcade. It's too much fun to do nothing with it.
Thank you for the kind words, we are very chuffed how our speed run of a game jam went. Especially given we had other commitments throughout the game jam and this is our second ever entry. All of the feedback is going to help us with our future games and I am looking forward to working on some passion projects without a time limit.
Who knows what the future holds for 'Blowout' maybe Bob will return, who knows 😃🤣
