Yes, you win :) the other game is much, much better. I recommend playing through it, but wait for version 1.4 (coming this weekend probably). It's not actually that hard to execute, mostly puzzle.

I guess when I get to the third screen, I win? I can't find anywhere to land.

I played your other game but I kept dying very early on, so I stopped playing it.

You could build a box for your attitude.

Dude, I saw you running yesterday. That was the coolest thing I've ever seen.

I'm going to bet that "Sharky" is a reference to Sharky the sharkdog from saturday morning cartoon Eek the Cat. When you mentioned the shark costume to me, that is immediately what came to mind. But I didn't mention it because the reference is too obscure. It would be like referencing "Damn Gina!" from the TV-series Martin starring Martin Lawrence which coincidentally was aired contemporaneously with Eek.

Haha, yes, it really has legs...

"Land Shark" as a meme really has legs, I guess. I had heard the phrase, and internalized the dangerousness and hilariousness of a land-roaming shark, but had no idea that it came from SNL until just now.

Dude i'm LOLzing-out-loud over here. It just occurred to me that there should be a shorthand for that phrase.

Live every week like it's shark week!

The mental image of attacking the slow runners sounds like good inspiration for another Flash game to me. "You Keep on Swimming".

Wow, that's exactly the same as my aesthetic!

Thanks, Nels! That aesthetic is a little something I call "I will totally replace these placeholder graphics with something better just as soon as I finish writing this code; oh look it is deadline time." Plus some Helvetica.

bouncecrab OS X available from http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~wlovas/ludumdare ! (For some reason the OS X version is like an order of magnitude bigger?)

What about a online high scores board?

Fixed permissions. Thanks for the bug report!

You can see how unfinished the game is, like with the end screen being itself a "level" on which you keep dying, and the first level just being a sketch of something so I could test the physics. :) I'm glad you guys found it fun anyway.

Improbably fun.

Also I love the writing across the bottom of the first level.

Good work Tom.

Also:
Man, I dig the aesthetic of Pirate-go-Round.

I like you keep flying. I thought the hangar level was a level and tried pretty hard to accomplish anything before giving up.

Tell Renshaw (I'm assuming it's that David?) that the permissions bits on the windows port need to be fixed; I'm getting a permission denied.

Nice. The music is great, and fits the game. The physics don't remind me of an airplane, but I'm not sure what would they do remind me of (a rocket maybe?).
