I think you should rename Unity WebPlayer.html into Unity_webplayer.html right click on it and "copy the public link" then paste it to the web version if you want us to play online !
Pretty funny. I also had jumping issues. Couldn't get past the house.
I didn't check externally before uplaoding, sorry: https://dl.dropbox.com/s/fp6n78rpho9jnf3/Unity_WebPlayer.html
Also, the public link option isn't available, is this normal?
The web version doesnt work for me, but its a nice concept. I like the funny mood.
Hiya, for the web version, put the .html and the webplayer file in your Public directory, right-click the .html and select Dropbox->Copy Public Link and post that for the URL. But change it from HTTPS to HTTP.
I'm on OSX and I'd quite like to play this!
Ah, sorry, didn't see your previous comment. Hmm, it should be in the context menu if it's in the Public directory?
Webversion just links to a dropboxfolder. Clicking the webplayer html made it download it. Used the desktop version.
Nice game. Loved the fact that you're walking backwards ;) Missed some goats. Also found it far too easy. Somehow I found the weird mix of graphical styles very appealing.
The web version doesn't work properly for me, cannot control the villain, it doesn't move
Too much jumping issues make this soooo hard!
Like throwing babies and cats though ^^
I know the jumping is hard, but as a heads up- it's functional as it should. There is a 2.5 second cooldown between each jump just to fuck with the villain. It was an attempt at fake difficulty- which I don't really like in hindsight. Plan each jump well, you'll be able to do it.
Good work on completing the game! Knowing how far along the course you were was nice, and I liked the aesthetics of the game (though it would have been nice to have the babies/ kittens consistent with the other characters).
The physics seemed a bit off (both for throwing obstacles and jumping); the obstacles did not seem to affect the mob more when thrown harder and the character seemed to get stuck on objects (making the jump seem unresponsive). This made the house section especially difficult since the foreground objects are blocking view of the obstacles that the player needed to jump over.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
REMEMBER: The “Theme” category is only for the main theme (You are the Villain). Don’t penalize for not using Goats.
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
We’ve identified the problem, and should have the page caching bugs fixed for next Ludum Dare.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Throwing babies and kittens to get away from an angry mob? Love it. Physics were a bit off at some parts making it hard to jump, though.
