Cool tower defense game. A bit uninteresting turn on the theme but it's well made nonetheless.
command line says "Error: Could not find or load main class GroopReal.jar"
I found it way to satisfying to hit them double head jumps!
The music and polish is nice. It took me a little bit to find the controls though.
Very repetitive, but oddly addicting. Would have been more interesting if you had more kinds of enemies and upgrades. I survived till level 10.
The game progresses rather slow.
The game play is very fun at first, but quickly grows repetitive over about 8 levels.
Love the music as well as the art.
Overall pretty fun!
I enjoyed the music greatly and the art was not bad!
Like mentioned by others, some more feedback would have been good, but well made!
Look up the "Juicing up your Game" talk for more info on feedback related things!
Fun! I was so happy the first time I hit two guys with one jump, and then when I first chained two bounces together. A bit slow early on but really fun in later levels when you can continuously chain bounces.
Addicting! Made it to level 10 on my first try. Wish there were more items and enemy types. Good stuff!
STAY AWAY FROM MY DOOR!! NO, MY DOOR! YOU ARE THE REAL MONSTERS!
Nice and polished, but ramped up a bit too slow. Fun once it going though!
Loved the double hit ability ^^
I agree with other about it being slow at first. Nice feel, overall.
Surprisingly fun game! Great sound effects, very smooth visuals. I would have loved to see more upgrades. Keep it up!
Quite simple, but very nicely done. The graphics and animations are clean, the jump mechanic is good, the progression is ok.
The monster is a bit slow to keep up with the flow of soldiers at the end, so some speed power ups would be a nice addition.
I reached level 8 before understanding that I should not use the guns to kill the guards but rather take advantage of the knockback effect. Not very original and you don't feel like the monster, but smooth graphics and bouncing was enjoyable. I would have liked to see some clouds or something else though =).
Can only agree to the others. Surprisingly nice game, very smooth animations and the graphics are so cute! The take on the theme does indeed lack a bit of innovation, but since I myself know how hard it can be to come up with something awesome I don't think it is too bad. Well done!
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.
Art seems simplistic but they fit, mesh very well with the music and sounds, controls are smooth and overall gamefeel feels good.

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.
I like the music and overall polish and consistency to the art. Try adding feedback to when he gets hit though, other than a sound effect. Keep up the good work!
