Would've given a 5 on polish and graphics, but I just didn't think the stickman fit the rest of the game. Thats just personal preference, though. Great game.

Jonny D

Good graphics and sound. A little glitch, I think, when I was stuck in the background.

That wall's butt must hurt.

I second lokijki's opinion. Also, you get my first 5 for humor. The walls' facial expressions are priceless.

Awesome game, I didn't realize the boss could be beaten(even though I had gotten behind him) until I had read some of the other posts.

Love the last boss and the graphics. Really good work.

X-0ut

Now this is my kind of game!
Awesome!
Each boss was well thought out.
Graphics and music are both top notch.
Excellent job, well done!

Cake... :)

athanazio

nice graphics and sound =) just missed some feedback if Im killing the boss or just making him slow with the shots

nilsf

Yay cake!
Very nice. I respawned in the background once and had to reload the game, but despite that it was very fun. The last boss was tricky, but in a good way.

FourEyes

was a bit of wtf am I supposed to do at the first boss (since I didnt read the journal) but after that was awsomness. Only thing was the stickman which worked, but could have been better

skalle

Cool game, having to come up with strategies against bosses is always fun.

Endurion

Very nice :)
Had the background bug once as well.

codekitchen

Cake!

Bravo. This rocks.

Draknek

Nice and simple: it works well. Would have liked more bosses though.

ChadyG

Now that's what I call a game!

dstrysnd

Totally awesome. Agree with everything good everyone else is saying: this is an awesome and clever game.

HybridMind

It wasn't till I read the other feedback here that you could actually beat the boss that I went back and tried and finally figured it out! I was so confused.. hah. Anyway, fun little challenging boss battler / platformer. I enjoy the 3rd bosses hat sticker..! Nice work pulling off game play and graphics like this within the deadline. My only gripe is basically.. why the stick figure? It is clear you are capable of much more. ;) Nice work!

lucasshrew

Nice!

Entar

Nice work.

agj

Very nice! Just overall well rounded, fun game.

Radix

Beating the third guy was a nice feeling. I can't seem to kill this fourth guy though, he just sits there smugly and pretends to be a cake.

jovoc

hatwall rocks! this game was fun and silly and perfect for the theme. Nicely polished, too. All bossfights and no levels -- it's like the frosting without the cake, yay

DrPetter

I like the game. It has a certain flow once you figure out what to do. The music is great. Wall people are kind of cute. I also got the glitch that stuck me in the bg after I respawned on the third level, too bad.

Hempuli

This was extremely funny! Great job.

SethR

Excellent work, I had to hand out a lot of fives here. and liked the Warhol pic as well :)

FourbitFriday

Radness abounds, great idea and execution. As has been said before, stickfigure seemed a bit out of place but the rest of the graphics, as well as the game, were sweet.

jsb

This game is fun to play and fully polished. Great job on the funny graphics and music! One minor flaw are the controls: Jumping on A was a bit confusing to me.

sol_hsa

Lots of fun, but unfortunately slightly buggy. On my first run, after dying a couple times, the enemy lost collisions. On another run, I had to leave the computer for a few moments and when I came back, the stick figure had transported to the background, unable to move, but able to shoot..

erik

Great idea. Is it towlr inspired at all? I want more.

It would be really great if you release a version that fixed the bug where collision detection stops working when you respawn.

muku

Fun little game there. Took me a while to figure out what to do on the first boss, but then it was pretty easy. Quite competent graphics, I have to say.

The bugginess is annoying though... I had the "stuck in the background" bug once and had to restart, and once I could move but there was no more collision detection.

greencow

walls certainly do have fine taste in hats.
