In “Like a Candy from a Baby,” you are in the role of a candy-craving five-year-old in the kindergarten, surrounded by babies (oh, those poor tiny creatures).

Ludum Dare 56 has finished 🚀
This time, there was an organized location at DC Krov, which was very fun to participate.
I was a bit late for the start, so the teams already formed, so I was working alone on a theme:

Tiny Creatures

Up to 4 players compete to be the first to collect five candies, running, jumping, and throwing stuff around.
Your goal is to grab candy and hold it while sneaky babies try to steal it from you.
Use quick moves and tricks to outsmart your friends, take their candy, and win the game!

Controls are focused on joystick, although players 3 and 4 can be on keyboard:
Player 1: Move (Joystick 1 stick) Hold/release (button 2), Jump (button 1)
Player 2: Move (Joystick 2 stick) Hold/release (button 2), Jump (button 1)
Player 3: Move (Joystick 3 stick) Hold/release (button 2), Jump (button 1)
….Player 3 (Alternate): Move (W/A/S/D) Hold/release (E), Jump (Space)
Player 4: Move (Joystick 4 stick) Hold/release (button 2), Jump (button 1)
….Player 4 (Alternate): Move (Arrows) Hold/release (O), Jump (P)

I really want to thank Vuk Savić, Ivan Notaroš and Mihailo Bogdanović for organizing the physical location for game jamming, as a part of Decentrala events. Looking forward to many more events 🏆
