Awesome game !

great game
really liked the graphics and all this different weapons :D

lissar 2013-08-27 01:45

Really love the visual style. The controls felt great and responsive (especially jumping, which I appreciate!)

syawqy 2013-08-27 01:49

I like graphic and variety of weapon, but I feel like the movement is a bit off

2013-08-27 01:53

Very fun. Didn't see a connection to the theme but maybe I just over looked it.

nicotuason 2013-08-27 03:08

Haha awesome! The animations of the scientists are super funny. And destructible terrain! I kept playing for a while just to see all the weapons.

ld_lan_party 2013-08-27 03:12

I like the wide variety of weapons.

flyingbear 2013-08-27 04:13

Well done! The player control is excellent and the variety of weapons is impressive!

matthias_zarzecki 2013-08-27 06:14

Ha, thisis great! Gameplay is nice, and the chractersare fun. Ilovehowit says "KILL" to start.

Having "shot" be on Enterthough is madness. I have to stop moving to actually be able to start contemplating hitting something

szedouu 2013-08-27 07:48

wohoo awesome platformer game, I love it , nice job man! KILL!

roguenoodle 2013-08-27 10:55

Wow - really impressive! The animations and weapon variety are pretty incredible.

falconstar 2013-08-27 16:33

I loved the arcade-feel to it. Very fun.

triplevisiongames 2013-08-27 20:19

Great graphics and really well made - particularly like the destructible scenery and the new bits coming down too

aquilicoco 2013-08-27 20:59

Good idea, love the graphics

meta87 2013-08-27 22:04

This is a blast! Love the gameplay, really tight. Graphics also :D bookmarked to play more

otus 2013-08-27 22:28

Very nice graphics, also enjoyed the weapon variety

rylgh 2013-08-27 23:23

Nice! Fun super crate box-inspired mechanics. Nice art, loved the little taunting dance the enemies did when you died. Also agree that the KILL button was a nice touch, instead of START. Liked the destructible platforms too!
suggestions:
- less abrasive jump sound effect, maybe randomize it a bit too
- platforming physics could be improved a bit

deammer 2013-08-28 03:14

Thanks rylgh! Those suggestions are definitely on the to-do list for the post-jam version :)

nickw 2013-08-28 12:15

Graphics are awesome, the game is pretty damn fun too.
Some music would have been nice though!

unusualcadence 2013-08-28 12:16

So much fun play this, hehe. Rat destruction!

ointment 2013-08-28 16:50

It's a pretty fun arena shooter. I can smell a Super Crate Box influence.

Suffers from a lack of music though, and the sound effects are too much like bfxr factory presets.

mark_ffrench 2013-08-28 17:26

Lots of fun, love some of the death animations!

loxo 2013-08-28 18:08

Very nice game, I like the awesome graphics and sound effects!

recursor 2013-08-28 18:32

The humans in this game spontaneously dance every so often ... and it is pretty hilarious. It felt like the little mouse jumps up a bit too quickly as I was having a hard time hitting anything that was less than 3 or 4 tiles above me. I liked playing with all the different weapon types.

jimanzium 2013-08-28 18:48

Any game with flamethrowers is a good game

jlauener 2013-08-28 19:16

Very nicely done entry! Especially like the fact that certain weapons destroy the terrain, good twist!

jupiter_hadley 2013-08-28 19:53

Nice game! Sort of like super create box, though I was a bit shocked when I broke the ground under me!! I featured it in my compilation video of Ludum dare 27 games, if you'd like to check it out http://youtu.be/PSym67k7zBg

orunbot 2013-08-29 20:25

Love it. Gives me that "Super Create Box" feel. Great game

folmerkelly 2013-08-30 09:01

The first comment mentions Jazz Jackrabbit, that's exactly what it brings me back to. Friggin love it.

nddrylliog 2013-08-30 17:25

Very, very, very nice feel to it. Really smooth.

For fellow testers: BEST PLAYED WITH A CONTROLLER. It was awkward to use Enter to fire on the keyboard, but on a controller - pure joy. Got 38K score :) doesn't seem like the difficulty goes up eventually.

Advice: 1) get a friend / pay someone to make a soundtrack (it was really lonely without music, I put the Jazz Jackrabbit 2 soundtrack) 2) break free from the 10 seconds theme 3) submit on Steam Greenlight 4) PROFIT!!!

christinaneofotistou 2013-08-31 18:55

what AMAZING graphics!
And it does remind me of Jazz Jackrabbit as well, plus other old-school platformers!

Top marks for this, thanks for making it!

doonay21 2013-09-05 09:20

Holly f**k! I really love this game. It jumps just to the first place of my best-ld48-jam-game-ever!

bitowl 2013-09-09 08:51

You blocked your dropbox link (probably dropbox changed it links?) so we can just play the postcompo version on kongregate?

deammer 2013-09-10 02:25

@bitowl thanks for the headsup, i fixed that link.
