Love the art style!! Fun concept too, kinda feel like im a bad guy but its a lot of fun!
The art is very cute! Hard, but very fun game! I wish there was more of a tutorial, but other than that, very fun game.
Thanks for the comment, all our amazing art is made by the amazing Jumana!
We really wanted to add some sort of tutorial, but you know, being a game jam and all we ran out of time pretty quickly.
Love the artstyle of the character! At first I thought I was supposed to find the guys who looked like me to defuse, until I realized I was supposed to blow people up. Then the game got a lot more fun lol
And always happy to see another game about blowing people up :)
The artstyle is very cute, especially the characters!
The gameplay was a bit harder to totally grasp, with a goal I found unclear at the beginning. And since there was a lot of randomness involved, and I didn't feel like I could strategize over where to place my bombs and how to use my skills. Especially since policemen have a larger radius to defuse the bomb than their sprite size so it's hard to gauge the ideal distance to stay away from them. I think the idea that coins aren't picked up automatically and that you have to go back to has potential, and could be explored further (maybe the map was a bit too big too?). But it felt fun for every character to react to the player, by either chasing or fleeing us, giving us a real presence and impact in the world.
Despite listing all that, I had a good time, explosions are always quite fun after all ;)
Well done to the whole team!
Fun chasing game with a cute artstyle, I'm afraid I never figured out how to buy items though. Never got higher than 3 kills.
it is a creative way for using the 2d caracter looks cute ;) i hope the guide will be more clear though so i can understand well the gameplay and the 3d scene maybe more dramatic, maybe the same cute as caracter haha after all good for your work and its really interesting!
Feel free to test our game thk!
Really good idea, but I didn’t really know what to do and I think there should be some kind of grace period once you spawn. I had cops on all 4 spawn locations defusing the bomb immediately. Art is really nice though
Using 3d with 2d in your game makes it stand out from other games, idea also very unique , didn't understand what I should do exactly though, but still a solid game. Keep up the good work! (Consider trying my game if you want to)
Really cool idea and the art style is really neat, the leaderboard is also a fantastic addition
Pretty fun with the interactive buttons on the menu, but I sometimes when I spawned in one place the police just stands next to me by somehow and I got defused right away. Anyway, good work.
I like the art style!
Interesting idea for the gameplay. The character art is pretty good, but it's clearly unfinished.
Not sure what you're meant to do. I mean blow people up, yeah, but what does the menu items do? Also spawning right on top of cops was a thing.
cool game i like it but it was a little bit buggy for me because i couldn't throw bombs or aim all i could do is stick to people and kboom
Fair point, the aiming definitely needed that cursor to utilize the abilities properly 😭 Fixing that bug ASAP! So glad you gave it a shot and had fun sticking to people and going KABOOM anyway! Thanks for playing <3
Not gonna lie it was very funny going KABOOM on the poor people lol
The cover image instantly got me and the concept sound fun too, im mobile now so I cant play it. Im adding this to my collection to play later though. See you later!
Thank you so much! Huge shoutout to our awesome artist Jumana for that cover poster, so glad it caught your eye! Definitely take your time to check it out whenever you're at your PC. Hope you enjoy it! <3
Nice art!
So happy you liked the visuals! I'll definitely pass the compliment along to our awesome art team.T hey did an incredible job bringing it to life! 🎨 Thanks so much for checking it out! <3
Good job on your submission! The concept is creative, and you made a fun interpretation of the jam theme. The idea of combining time pressure with the delivery mechanic creates an interesting challenge. Congratulations on your work!
Really glad you enjoyed the concept and our spin on the theme! Just to clear up though, there isn't actually a delivery mechanic in the game. It's all about running around gathering as big a crowd of NPCs as possible before the timer runs out and you explode! 💣 Still super happy to hear you had fun with the time pressure and challenge. Thanks for playing and for the super sweet words! <3
Hope you get a chance to play my game too!
This is really nice and I really dig the art style. I got a bug where the mouse disappears in the restart screen so I was stuck there and had to refresh the page, but otherwise really cool with maybe a bit of grimness in there.

Thank you! Our artists made a great choice with the art direction, and yeah that cursor bug is definitely the real final boss 😭 fixing it super soon! So glad you enjoyed the art and the lowkey grim vibe 💀 <3
little guy, big dreams, and an even bigger bomb, ha! GGs, you guys did great!
Big dreams definitely, thank youuuuuu, glad you enjoyed it :) <3
