How does your game fit the theme?
You are a bomb, when ignited, the enemies start running away from fear, your task is to chase them and herd them before detonating, or else you'll lose.

Great job on your submission! I really liked the idea of the game and the creative way you adapted it to the jam theme. The concept is very interesting, and it fits the countdown mechanic in a really original way. Congrats on your work!
Thanks a lot, congrats on your game too!
The concept is really interesting, well done!
Thank you for playing and rating it!
Very original idea. I like the idea of you chasing the enemies who are running away from you and the fact that you have to group them to make it. I had a lot of fun playing it, well done!
Thank you so much, glad you had fun playing it!
I wasn't expecting them to shoot, but it makes sense, who wouldn't want to shoot a bomb running at them lol, it would have been more fun if shooting also exploded in their face too, but that would have made game easier xD.
I loved the concept and was executed brilliantly.
Thanks a lot, you just gave me pretty cool and crazy ideas, I am happy you loved the game!
Very polished and creative approach to the theme that are actually fun to play with!
Thanks for playing it, happy to hear that!
Very strong game, haven't seen a lot of games where YOU become the timer, but this one definitely nailed the concept! Enemy AI is coded fairly, but considering the short timeframe, very impressive. Quite difficult but exciting! This game likely can really do well if it is multiplayer and brought on to the switch (feels like a very good party game). Very well made. Great job :)
Thanks a lot, I am glad you enjoyed it! I haven't thought about making it a multiplayer, but seems a fair challenge after improving the balancing and stuff. Thanks again and good luck with your game!
i hate the green enemy i lose everytime becuse he has a good aim omg pls nerf this green one
Btw this game have a good art and audio good job bro
Haha, yes they indeed need to be nerfed, thanks a lot for playing it!
Simple, unique idea, well executed, and challenging. Good job!
Thanks for playing it!
Very unique game! Well made and well thought out, great job!
Thanks a lot!
Wow this is fun! Love the timebomb mechanic, very creative implementation of the theme
Thanks, glad you had fun!
The Idea is awesome but I think I am to bad for that game :D
For me the biggest obsticals were the enemy firing at me directly after they run away from me and the enemies sometimes got struck on wall / will not go the way I wanted.
For the first problem you could add a indicator (red laser or something) and a delay to the enemy attack. The second one is harder but maby the AI could favor running towards other AI. Because mostly that what I want as a player. Again just suggestions, maby I just suck at this game :D
Nope, you're not alone, turned out the difficulty needs more balancing, I am happy you enjoyed playing it though, thanks for the constructive feedback and good luck with your game!
Good game! It would be pretty cool to see this into a full game! :D
Thanks, I am happy you'd like to see this into a full game)
Simple but fun. Difficult but in a good way. The level design is very tricky considering the mechanics but it managed to keep me playing until the end. Great work!
Hey, thanks a lot for playing and rating it, I am glad you played until the end!
a fun, pretty and quite hard game but i think thats just me XD i like the take of being the bomb rather than dealing with bombs. good job! (PS: we almost share the same game name haha)
Thanks for playing it, I am glad you enjoyed it. Yep, we share almost the same game name ;d
Very creative and fun!
Thanks for playing it!
I like the take on countdown and bomb theme! Blowing up a lot of people at once is very satisfying and the levels are really good!
Thanks, your feedback means a lot!
Tsat was really funny, great job! And ended so fast.. Waiting Full version, keep going
Thanks, I am happy you enjoyed it! I'll try to fix it and make it better next time.
Really liked the way some levels can be solved in different ways. The game felt challenging and fun at the same time. Great Game.
Yes I really wanted players to have more than one ways to win, thanks a lot for playing and rating it!
Very exciting game, but the explosion covers the player making it hard to dodge obstacles.
Thanks for playing the game!
The hype of not being caught by enemies is great! Sometimes enemy shoot me in the range but I don't know as a bomb myself, if enemies shoot me I would explode hehe... The explosions are satisfying to watch and hear!
Very good game design and intuitive!
Thanks a lot for the feedback! I am happy you enjoyed it
