Thanks! It's actually my first game ever, and also my first Ludum Dare! Looking forward to learning and improving my skills for the next compos. :-)
Fun game. i was really trying to kill all the humans without touching the ground once X)

Hard game ;) But if its not hard enough, try passing all the levels while not killing a single human! =P
Also, it looks hilarious when the already dead alien still hops on top of the heads of some humans!
Not bad for a first game, but unfortunately the colission detection seems to have some issues if you're landing on multiple people at the same time.
Good luck with your continued devving =D
Fun game. although quite simple i was really trying to kill all the humans without touching the ground once X)

Kind of a cool goomba-murdering simulator, though I did sometimes get killed by being bounced.
I wanted to jump on so many heads! Then I jumped on two heads at once and died :(
I'd suggest setting the aliens hurtbox quite a bit higher than the actual sprite. It's way to easy to die to crowds, otherwise.
Fun game in general though.
Fun game with a difficult control scheme. I think that the controls work well though. I like the artwork and the subtle things like the blood effects.
I found the best strategy to be to skip your way to the door and get more people and then just hope to land on them. My best score was obtained after I died -- I kept bouncing around (no longer under my own control) killing humans left and right.
Overall I liked it!
It plays really nicely - the art is pretty nice too. It's a bit strange without music or sounds, but I understand.
sometimes it's hard to get what hit you, but I like the fact you still can kill a lot of people after your death.
Cool game with nice graphics, I felt quite bad at each human I jumped on! Good luck! :)
Congratulation for your first game. There is everything you expect for a jam game. The art is nice, lack some audio. Check BFXR next time to create sound !
not bad for your first game. you keep it easy and simple for yourself.now i would suggest that you improve the game with some more variation. like most platforms. but overall nice for a first game.
It is simple, but fun. I liked to make a combo jumping from one head to another... especially after death)))
Promising game, I would've liked some sound and music. Also most of the time you die when colliding with humans who overlap each other.
Much better than I thought at first. It's actually a lot of fun!
Hahaha, in the third level, I almost killed all humans after i was killed. My corpse remained jumping, squashing those poor souls. Good game!
Its fun when you're already dead and still kills a lot of humans
This was a good game, the graphics looked nice and the gameplay was simple yet moderately fun.
it was very addictive, loved the controls and the graphics were fine. nice job.
Good take on the theme. It was fun jumping on the human's heads to take them out. More challenging that I would've expected too. Nice work.
Good effort for your first try.
Strange bug when I died, I seemed to bounce around randomly killing more people. Not sure if this was intended or not.
In some ways, the best part was dying and seeing how many people you could still hit. I could also see racking up a bonus for every person you hit without hitting the ground. Good work!
I found a bug when 2 humans overlapping, if i try to kill them, i die instead.
really enjoyed, would of liked a chain bonus for people killed without hitting the ground
I find this incredibly addictive. Silly but fun. I love the fact that you can keep killing them after you are dead and even advance to the next level if you land on the door. Like a way to redeem yourself by luck. I don't know if it was intended though :P Nice work for a first time!
Very nice project guys, i really love it, please check our game too and if you liked it give us a vote. Look for Road to hell and enjoy.
Nice little jumper game! Works really fluently and funny character design.
Interesting game and especially good for your first LD - great effort!

Mini Submission FAQ
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.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
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 at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
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. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
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.
Good effort and promising.
Small bug or feature: You can still press "up" at a door during your death animation thingy.
