Author Comments

Blue Bayou is a game made in one week for GBJAM-8. It placed #1 in the "Fun" category. Part boss rush and part crawdad simulator, players assume the role of a cornered mudbug as they face down a slew of ruthless debt collectors in the Louisiana bayou.

the frog boss is kind of overly hard. ive seen no way to dodge the tounge attack at all. and at one point when i killed the frog the prince was on, my machete vanished and i only had the harpoon. i ended up dying.

I FINNALY BEAT THIS DAMN THING

why is it so hard. Dang I am bad but it is fun.

COOL

Oh my gawd that gator had more bite than a mudcat durin' noodlin' season! Thank my lanta for Clarence, ha.

That was really fun to play. The gator was hard, but it took a lot of dashing and a little more patience. I really enjoyed the dialogue, the graphics were perfectly executed and the entire game was all around charming. You could tell you definitely put some TLC into this project.

Thank you for making it!
