For some reason, clicking play on your website doesn't actually take me anywhere. Broken link?
@Razion -- Should switch the image to be the game (which in this case happens to be the same image) Click again to play the first level. :)
I bagged myself 169 pounds of ... er, Poon? What's the plural for them; Poons?
The sound feedback was very good! It had a lot of black comedy to it and simple mechanics that kept me going.
Haha, adorable/twisted.
My friend suggested I change the humans in my game to puppies and see who still plays the game to find out who the "real monsters" of the world are. Looks like you've done something like that, here. Since I gleefully enjoyed your game, I must be a monster. ;)
Too cute to live! I really liked the easing movements - they made me pay a lot more attention to my shots!
The Play-link isn't working in IE9 but does in Chrome.
Game is well done, some music would have been nice.
@madpew Thanks for the info! Looks like my activate-script is not working in ie9 (must be what @razion was seeing)
Music was on the list, but did not make it into the game. :)
Very fun game! Only complaint is that the bullets seemed to move too slowly.
@madpew @Razion -- Looks like you have to click play a few times in IE.
Good stuff! Might do well with a leaderboard for people to compare, uh, poon ranks? >.<
Those stupid poons. They walked totally unpredictable so it was so hard to kill them.
I loved the graphics. It was a fun play. Really fun play. Good catch on the theme, also the mood was great.
In total you did a really nice game there. Good job finishing. I had fun. Stupid poons being stupid...
Ermm..the use of the word 'poon' made me very uncomfortable here. Not sure if this was supposed to be a metaphor or...? Uh, anyway nice game - reminded me of the hunting bits in the old school Oregon Trail games.
Simple, but fun! The acceleration and deceleration made it a bit unpredictable though.
Good graphics especially the scenery. Easy playing on my phone. I had to force-quit the app though. I played on a galaxy note.
But I certainly had fun.
Nice animations and gameplay.
Poons are so cute that one should really be a villain to shout them all.
Awww I kilt them D: I expected there would be some reckoning in the cave, like a giant carnivorous one, but alas. No.
@saguaro yeah-- there was a plan at one point to have a boss in the cave, but it didn't make it in. :D

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.

The graphics are very well done! :)
