Gingerbread Circus

Author Comments

In this first installment of Gingerbread Circus you're putting on a knife throwing show over twelve stages and with a number of different assistants.


Tips:
- Keep your eye on the time and how many knives you've got left,
- A hospitalised or deceased assistant won't impress the audience and will count as an automatic stage failure.

Quite a difficult but very fun game of knife throwing. I am impressed how much variety they managed to fit in what is essential the same thing each round.

The hit detection does feel a bit off at times, but I'm guessing that's more an issue of the knife art being too large than actually missing the hit detection zone.

I really liked that there was an aspect of trying to pass the challenge within the given time limit, but also being limited to knifes and having to make sure you don't kill the poor gingerbread people. The several layers of challenge really helped what would have been monotonous otherwise.

It's a pretty good game and seems to progress as you move along so there does seem to have a challenge build up

I couldn't get that much into this game, mostly because I'm not good at it. Well, the first two rounds went fine. It went downhill with that third part. I do think this is a pretty unique game. There was always something different coming up. The animation was pretty good.

I never once hit a gingerbread man. I don't know why they're gingerbread men of all things. Wait, there were some girls in there. Well, most people liked it at least. The circus atmosphere was nice.

lol, what a brutal game this can be! Love the idea, and it's good the main character isn't actually human bur rather a harmless piece of burned dough. The animations slick, controls are smooth... it's a good game!
