Great game actually. Only it was really hard because the hitbox of the character was very big, and i kept being hit by the flying garbage pretty often although the character itself were not hit directly but just his hitbox.

Though overall you made a great game with awesome graphics and audio, awesome humor and a nice approach on the theme, with the big dude getting rid of little childrens lemonade stands.
I had fun playing it, just that it was pretty hard. Good work.

Amazing graphics, really love them. But I wonder... what if you had turned the kids into more cute poor innocent things being crashed by an old senile guy ?

I mean... why the hell is this guy selling lemonade, isn't he too old for that ?

Anyway, that was really fun to play, I loved the bounce "effect". Well done !

This game is amazing.

I love the way he jumps. I love the sound. Bouncing from person to person is very fun. Nice work.

Lovely art direction! +stars for killing children!

A funny game. I love the art.
Losing two lives at one time is a bit harsh, but the game was fun to play nevertheless.

Destroying the lemonade stands bit by bit was satisfying :D and I liked the light-hearted approach to the theme regarding the lemonade market.

Avoiding the thrown objects was kind of hard and I think it would have been more fun if there was some way to duck or shield yourself rather than having to jump from one object to another to stay out of the line of fire.

When dying on a level, you probably shouldn't make the player restart from scratch for Ludum Dare entries: most people won't go through the hurdle of replaying all the previous levels just to see what comes next (we made that mistake in our #24 entry ourselves)

The graphics are nice, but i think it's just another platformer like many others.
Sorry for that question but what happen if i changed the seller spirte by mario's sprite and the kids by turtles?
the lonely strengh of the game is the graphics unfortunlatly
