Nice work! I loved that i could play it in-browser -- thx!

It was so much fun killing all the people! Great game!

Nice work. I like the theme you went with. The enemy AI is a bit simplistic, but otherwise good job :)

Nice moody music. The gameplay felt a little pointless though, is there a goal condition?

phased 2012-04-23 12:18

yes, 75 kills, then the boss, I should add that to the notes

Reminds me of notch' MiniCraft last LD. Fun to kill the dudes!

At first mowing down guys was surprisingly fun. Got a little tedious after a while - I wish something had told me how many were left. And man, that was a hard boss. Liked the story too.

Fun little diversion! Took me a minute to figure out that each guy was worth 10 pts. Always fun to get rid of guys in orange jumpsuits! Thanks!

it's interesting, no sound for me though, says it's using an unsupported sound format
can't see how it's a tiny world either though, the world is pretty freaking big, especially if you swim out.

phased 2012-04-24 12:10

if you swim out, nothing will happen, no criminals will go past -14 and 64 tiles, the water is just a background filler. its generated by it self, if there is no tile there, it will just render water.

Great Game, but the world needs to be more tiny =)
A number showing how many bad guys are left would be great.

I did not like the goal of the game. But the sounds were fine.
The game fits the theme and the graphics were ok :)

Nice music, but the game was just not that fun. You should add more features and motivate the violence more. Did find it weird just killing people for no reason..

Nice one! The boss killed me! >.<

Nice little game. The art was nice, but it could have had a little more animations. You should also have a counter that shows how many enemies are left.

Going through the effort of building in the menus, story and music was a nice touch, but not enough to offset the monotony of the gameplay for me.

Congrats on another game under your belt, though! :)

Everything OK, except it runs at something like 15-20FPS, either in a browser or just with the Java. Good work, anyway.

I think that this game could become quite cool if you made it so that we have to kill a lot less criminals and added a little more challenge. That would help make it more engaging, I think.

Really like the music you've done on that!
