short game,wished it was longer,but overral,good game,can I have the lyrics for the soundtrack? :D

Kwing responds:

There was roughly a 1-hour period for everyone to play every game; I made the game short because I wanted people to be able to finish it and move on to the other submissions. Lyrics:

Look out Wolverines, this is Sham Jam
Kicking a couple of rhymes to promote myself on Bandcamp
And now I'm getting laughed at but none of you can rap fast
Music in Audacity and programming in Flash, man

All these Unity games prove the kids are getting sloppy
I write physics from scratch and you're using rigid bodies
I cook and butter cookie cutter games like tamales
'Cause you reuse refuse for making shitty copies

When I make a game I always take the reigns
Drawing every animation frame by frame
Trigonometry accounts for the way it plays
Ask me 'bout the code, I'll explain for days

Anyway the game's about a kid with a secret
Wants to be a T-rex but never got the respect
It's partly coordination and it's partly reflex
As you play, the size of the arm decreases

Made this shit solo, yolo, oh no
I'm mowing over teams on my own bro, you don't know
I've got a chokehold on code, art, and a dope flow
This is what it's all about, so go big or go home

Should've given warning 'fore the kids were all getting in line
Best of luck mate, but I'm doubting yours is better than mine
Imma end the verse 'cause I'm still working on the level design
And I'll be damned if 1:00 comes and I don't get it in time

This is a funny game, and the story is both ridiculous, but hilarious. The one thing I can say is that the music does get annoying after a while, but that's a small price to pay. If only the game was longer...

Kwing responds:

Like I said below, the game is short because Game Jams tend to get hectic and no one wants to play the same game for too long.

I thought about having the music stop, or at least play the instrumental instead of the rap on loop, but I decided that after the work I put in I wanted other people to hear it. Kind of hard to strike a middle ground if you catch my drift.
