Not sure why auto-jump seems to be enabled, that's a little strange. I encountered a couple of bugs; shooting the chainsaw in front of you and just standing it while you rack up kills and I even lost my chainsaw once (I think I shot it under the world).
There's not much depth to it but you do get to shoot chainsaws from a crossbow at bunnies. :D
Well, the concept is good - firing chainsaws at bunnies - it was going well until my chainsaw vanished!

Nothing like killing innocent animals with chainsaws, I guess.
Question is, are the bunnies evil for killing you with their love?

Awww. It almost hurts my soul killing cute bunnies with a chainsaw. So good job with making me feel like the villain. I didn't like the auto-jump as it was hard to aim.

Mechanic gets a bit repetitive and there is not really much to do apart from killing bunnies. Music and graphics are functional.
Hi, thanks for playing the game. The bug for when the chainsaw stays on the floor but still kills the bunnies was a little error with the colission mask and I have fixed it. The auto-jump was put in there to make it a little less monotone, but if everyone dislikes it, I can easily remove it. Thank you for your feedback, probably I'll update the game soon in a post-compo version.

I'm not a big fan of the autojumping. It's distracting, and in a game where touching enemies is bad, it feels like a disadvantage.
Also, you're not supposed to modify gameplay during the judging. xD
Good and funny graphics, although I fear you spent too much time on them and not enough on the gameplay - it was very repetitive and got boring quickly.
Fun, but got bored quite quickly though.
i feel bad for killing the bunnies :S .... You did a great job the theme xD

I liked the idea of the ammo we have to get back. the sound overall is torturing me.

Strange one, but yeah, bunnies + chainsaw, can't really under-rate that :P

You definitely hit on the theme... might get rid of the auto jump and add another enemy besides the clock... good job though.

Interesting game mechanics. I like the way it works with having to pick up the single ammo all the time.
Auto jump is a little strange, but I guess that represents the impulsivity of the character :)
Firing a chainsaw with a crossbow? Wicked. Was a bit confused about the auto hop unless the guy is trying to blend in with the bunnies by acting like them. Hilarious little game.

Fun game, killing bunnies is definitely evil. Though The collisions could be better .

The autojumping is certainly confusing. It really put me off as it doesn't seem to serve any purpose. A good bit of fun with the theme though.

I think the bright happy background really helped make your actions seem evil. Sound toggle didn't seem to work properly. Game needs more variety to keep interest.
