Very cute and simple game done right with the right length.
Music is repetitive though and sfx mixing could be improved.
But fun and well done otherwise.

The music was very loud and i wish i couldve heard the bomb better. also in the last round, they wouldn't stop targeting me. I was so close to winning but no matter who I gave it to, they always gave it back to me. in the beginning it felt like it was a group of people against each other but in the end it was everyone else vs me. still had a lot of fun though!

Cool game! Needs a separate SFX volume bar - the bomb sound is barely audible.

Submitted

Its cool but it falls into the hole that the mario party minigame that is like this does which is you can just wait until the bomb is about to explode. That and the shield makes it so you can be even less precise with the timing.

Really cool game! Love the concept and the pacing of the duels. The music is facking annoying - which might be the point tbh. Although, the music does loop inconsistently and that is what I am mostly talking about. The characters are fun and I could totally see some kind of customization and multiplayer being integrated. Would also be cool to see the map change a bit cosmetically. Would be nice to add some keys for passing to specific opponents rather than just clicking with the mouse. Hope you keep working on it!

I found it a bit difficult to tell when exactly the bomb was going to blow up and so I found it difficult to tell when to shield myself. Maybe something like the bomb flashing or the music speeding up would be a good clue. The game premise is fine however I am not sure how expandab le it would be into a full game. Perhaps if it was multiplayer with friends it would be funny for a few rounds. 

Its a solid protoype for a mechanic, well done

its alright

really cool! i like the art and the idea is good but the idea is a bit... common like pass the bomb, hot potato and other things. but the game is pretty goodd....

Submitted

That was fun. Really nice concept and implementation as well.

The gameplay while simple is fun, and it doesn't take anything away from the experience. 

The sound design is well done. Especially considering the bomb doesnt have a timer but rather it's indicated via sound, which I love personally.

The art is minimal but it still fits the game.

The only critique I would have is the enemies themselves, as some have multiple lives and some don't, which could be just a design choice, in which case I don't think it's too bad.

Overall it's a simple game which is lovely to play and is fun.

An elegantly designed hot-potato game! The gameplay is fun and the interface is clear. This is really solid for your first jam.

Submitted

Nice job with the jam! The art style and little funny introduction was great! Timmys dad seems like a great dude :D
I managed to complete the game on my first try, but it got a bit hectic towards the end. It felt like they were all targeting me :D

Submitted

Fun game!  Made it to wave 3.   Good job.

What an awesome submission for your first jam! The art was cute, the gameplay was simple yet fun, and the dialogue made me chuckle a few times! (Like, c'mon, JARED!)

Awesome job :)
