Very bloody, unnervingly satisfying. A shame that the evolution thing fell by the wayside after the start, but still good fun throughout :)

Those chickens don't stand a chance with the beam! :D

That was awesome, and oddly satisfying.
Unfortunately the game froze when I got to the second level running it in Wine.

+1 for the tractor beam, the second level seemed like a big jump in difficulty.

Nice! I died pretty early on, and couldn't find a way to recover health (was there one?), but great idea, I enjoyed playing.

We had a health pick up to start with but think it got lost in the confusion XD We had a few problems right at the end when we planned to balance thus the second level came out like it did.. we're hoping to polish it and make a balanced version at some point!

Small tip on the second level - Do not touch the cherry trucks! Avoid them all costs

Really really fun to play. The turning was a bit awkward, but the graphics style and the bloody nature of the game made up for it ;)

Killing farmyard animals is actually very fun! Great game!

Background tune actually made the game feel quite relaxing, but 2nd level was a huge jump in difficulty, and tracktor physics were rough. But overral, the game was fun, art looks great, and tracktor beam is forever in my heart :)

Looking really cute :)

Nice work. Took me a while to work out how to use the laser and play level 2 without dying immediately but it was great fun. Looked and sounded great too.

hahah, funny!

Don't have windows, wish I did so I could play this. Looks awesome, and from the comments, is awesome. Good luck!

Moving doesn't feel good because of the collision boxes (they are too big). Very funny idea anyway. I hope I didn't miss it, but is there an explanation for the icons? Especially the last one I didn't get.

darkfrost 2012-12-21 20:19

Health fuel mattercollected energy, then the other blacked out pictures where equipable wepons on the nums.

Yeh we never did get round to fixing the collisions XD

cyboot 2012-12-22 11:56

that was bloody funny.
Ok that sounds stupid, but great game.
Nice graphics and sound.

good job!

darkfrost 2012-12-22 19:19

The icons from left to right were:
Health (%)
Fuel (%)
Matter collected (% to the next upgrade)
Energy (%, this is needed for certain weapons)

Then there are various icons showing you the state of your weapons, depending on which you have unlocked

Nice little game. :) Lost interest after a few minutes, but still a good game in the jam category.

bentog 2012-12-23 18:24

I like the game, it's fun and relaxing, half a second after I got to level 2 I died :( So, I had no patience to finish level one again. Besides that, well done!

sclark39 2012-12-23 18:26

Pretty fun, but I couldn't figure out how to attack in the second level and didn't want to grind my way through the first again after I died. Also, "tractor beam". Love it.

Sheeps are too big, like elephants XD Great game!
