Simply amazing. It's not a complex game but just simple and very theme related with great humor xD 5/5!
Lol, love it. Really like the mirrored relative controls on the head.
Loved this! Hilarious and it made me dizzy. quite addictive too!
Hilarious idea. For some reason the audio didn't work on chrome (latest version) so I have rated n/a for audio.
Hahaha this was really funny. Might be my favorite game so far. Nice work using Processing!
Truly the greatest LD game ever. You definitely had me playing for over an hour. Full marks all around.
It's not particularly difficult or original, but it's pretty funny and it has some cool music. I played for about half an hour when I should have been doing work, so you're definitely on par with Dice Wars here.
The two complaints I have with this game are 1) the "YOU DIED!" text never goes away, which gets pretty obnoxious pretty fast, and 2) it takes waaaaay too long to grind for the items. If you had the coins correspond to real world US currency (pennies/nickels/dimes/quarters/half-dollars/dollar coins) it would make the most sense, in my opinion.
Oh, and also-- Shoop da Whoop? 9001? It's not 2007 anymore, dude!
Fixed the thing with the gametext and yeah you are probably right :P
And since the coin growth is exponentional you only need to achieve some deeper depths to win.
One of the best, if not THE best ostrich simulator I've ever seen.
Funny and smooth!
Had a lot of fun playing your game - nice job! :-)
This is incredibly addictive, hilariously funny and the music track is awesome!
Well done!
One question: When you buy the second item (800$) your money falls down to -4000 O_o
Is this bug or feature?

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
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.
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.
LOL oh man, this is edgy as hell. Made my day! :D
