Seems like the most complete game I've played so far, but it suffers from the false difficulty of just too much stuff flying at you, and I end up just circling the main blob of enemies and occasionally throwing something at them. Still, awesome job.

Nicely done. There is a lot going on. I think it needs to progress much slower, but I agree that it feels very complete, and fun.

Lots of stuff flying around. A little too much at times :) In the end didn't manage to finish it. Could be better if my guy had more damage.

Nice averall job, pretty complete game i must say.
Only real downside is the difficulty ;)
I also blocked the game twice ^^

Really difficult, aiming is a bit tricky too. Nicy graphics though

Funny game with nice graphics, its difficult but addictive too!

zazery 2012-12-18 22:47

Nice graphics. I think the theme would've come through more if it was easier since villains need to think they are winning.

Fun game! whoever had the idea of a button to lock the character angle made an awesome job, it helps a lot! But when there are a lot of people throwing things on your face (which starts happening really fast, and keeps forever) the audio gets really boring..

You are entitled to your opinion. Honestly, to me, they seem like they will prevail no matter how many people try to stop them.

The difficulty felt really against me, too many things flying around + people + spawn rate + the knock-back from the a hit combined to make the game extraordinarily difficult.

Very pretty game though, but I sure did fail a lot!

+ for the retro style

The sound became pretty hellish when there were >10 dudes on the screen.
Nice variety of hurled projectiles.

Too difficult to enjoy or really play. Needs balancing. Art, music and presentation were fine.

eraldo 2012-12-19 01:43

I was pushed off screen and could not go back.

goodlookinguy 2012-12-19 02:04

@zazery Well, when you're taking out several guys all at once, I'd call that feeling like you're winning.

@brantkings I put in the sounds last, so the their volume and other things about them weren't quite as I wanted them, but I was just happy to see the game completed.

@GeorgeBroussard For most people it is balanced. It takes a bit to get used to it, but once you do you can score 35,000 on each player on average.

@eraldo That's the bug I'm working on fixing. You weren't pushed off screen, but you definitely became invisible.

Nice retro style game, I think I was just bullied by those angry people. lol

raroadkill 2012-12-19 03:10

Well done. I did not find it too hard really, just hard enough to make me want to keep playing for a bit. Well done

tau7153 2012-12-19 15:37

Interesting bullet hell!

loren 2012-12-19 17:13

Really dig the music, left it on the start screen for a bit. fun gameplay, like the sprites!

krasse 2012-12-20 11:23

Projectile overload!!!
It was quite fun actaully :)
But I think it was a bit to difficult.

wlad 2012-12-20 11:41

Yeah, I managed to receive the amulet of Xonthor! But I think with Bobcat this is nearly impossible, because I failed twice trying it. Matthew is the man. The music/sound and the grafics were nice. Somehow I felt not like a villain, but like a hero-like deconstruction worker who is attacked by stuff throwing zombies :-)

revelorenfield 2012-12-20 17:57

What kind of coworker throws cats, staplers, pizzas and batarangs to people like that ?
Thank you, I had fun playing your game :)

bullseye8841 2012-12-23 01:22

Solid entry, though I found the balance between the two characters to be very off. I can only survive for a short few with Bobcat, but I can go on indefinitely with Matthew. Might need a bit of tweaking there (or I'm just awesome with Matthew :D).

Great game! It was quite hard but the player had a ton of health.

I recognize that music too, from that python script :)

goodlookinguy 2013-01-06 09:18

All of the music except the title screen music was from that python script. The title screen music was actually made by hand for the game.

soy_yuma 2013-01-06 10:38

Interesting! Nice graphics with many details (like the Insert Coin for the 2nd player) and good audio :-)

azurenimbus 2013-01-06 21:37

Too much! Build a little difficulty curve!

Otherwise great game!
