This was great, funny, good job!

Points for minimalising hero's journey :)
The gameplay is a bit lacking - all the fights can be win by just standing and spamming quick attack

Very cool idea. It was a bit heavy on the fighting for me. I would have liked to just get through it and see all the hero's journey stuff.

The graphics/presentation is really good. Thought the combat was a little slow/unresponsive. Got owned by hitstun. Loved the 'go right' hand, classic touch.

Dang the double-bat is totally OP! Now I know if I ever have a ninja problem in my neighborhood just go see the friendly potato goddess for the ultimate boon. Great game :)

Fun and wild looking! I like the look of the photo sprites on the had-drawn backgrounds.

Haha this game made me laugh :D Fun idea with the graphics

Nice. Cool art, nice quick story and the AI is great. Could just use a song looping in the BG.

Like how you did the animation good job

epic ending! :p

Some proper old school mortal combat style graphics, you guys must have had a lot of fun making this. :D
Beat it in one go, so I wouldn't say it was difficult.
But I'd have to say the rats at the start were the most hilarious of all. :P

I didn't have enough time to properly play balance this game. We finished importing the last art asset 5 hours before submitting. So I decided to err the difficulty on the side of too easy. It is more important to me that the player be able to experience all the game content than feel properly challenged.

hamster_mk_4 2013-05-02 20:12

Oh and making this was a blast.

tiffi 2013-05-03 10:25

Loved it, one of the best games in this Ludum.

prelucid 2013-05-05 01:33

Strangely awesome in so many ways.

tsb 2013-05-05 07:22

Really liked the graphics style, and the ameplay was quite addictive as well, ui played for about 15 minutes!

jellycakes 2013-05-07 00:35

That was pretty fun, but it ended a bit abruptly didn't it? THE END. Was fun to play anyway. Nice job.

Game of the year right here. Also, how was I a woman?

ecool377 2013-05-11 06:10

Like skyrim with guns -machinima

I liked the subtle humour plus the graphics and animation was really awesome and well done.

joshimoo 2013-05-11 19:16

The mood and the Graphics style is amazing.
Would not have expected that the photos + backgrounds would work this well together.

Did you use a lot of filters for preparing the pictures?

hamster_mk_4 2013-05-11 20:07

The pictures were created with the GIMP's magic wand and eraser tools. We had a green tarp as a backdrop.

Wow, funny and nice graphics! The controls are a bit stiff!
