This was awesome. I laughed so much... I'm a bad person

crockid5 2013-12-16 11:05

High ratings from me, You only get one leg, made me laugh :D

paulrdi 2013-12-16 11:07

I didnt find this very funny but I don't know if it should be^^. But the game manages to make you feel like you are handycapped. Very nice job on that.

kar 2013-12-16 11:33

The idea... You're crazy :D

toki-anholmes 2013-12-16 11:35

I love your game ! The feeling when moving the avatar is amazing :)

cappelnord 2013-12-16 11:36

Controls are sluggish, but I believe this is somewhat the point :)? Difficulty progression was quite good, I liked how falling blocks are introduced right in the beginning. Some audio would have been nice.

tacospice 2013-12-16 11:37

Haha. Hilarious. Would be even more so with a little hopping sound. Hup hup hup hup hup

Simple graphics but they do the trick.

Interesting take on the theme. I think the hardest part for me was getting up that damn staircase, though I suppose thats appropriate. Well done

killswitch 2013-12-16 11:41

Good stuff. It frustrates me that I can't do more than one action at the same time.

drludos 2013-12-16 11:42

Excellent game, I love it! Great Idea and funny to play!

pyro 2013-12-16 11:43

Very nice game. So simple yet so fun.

shinsh 2013-12-16 11:45

Very good idea to use the theme.

Best theme interpretation!

pereubu 2013-12-16 18:25

ok, I don't you'll be beaten on humour, at least from my point of view.

arcticleaf 2013-12-17 17:06

LOL :D awesome i like it

ultravisitor 2013-12-17 17:11

[mandatory] I guess he is on his last leg. I really like your primitives based art style. The pacing is interesting requiring patience and precision. I wonder how this guy happened to find himself in a dungeon with one leg anyways? ... I think you should rename this game "Last Leg".

ob6160 2013-12-17 17:32

The entire one leg thing was great xD

murilo 2013-12-17 17:38

Very good use of the theme! The gameplay was just right! Too bad it was kind of short. (not for LD though). Great job, man!!

rjhunter 2013-12-18 04:04

The length was about perfect for an LD entry. Long enough to get a feel for it, short enough to play quickly and rate other games. Good level design and progression.

A little bit of sound would have gone a long way, and it would have been nice to turn "attack OR jump OR move, you only get one" from a frustrating limitation into "just part of the game".

lasagnegames 2013-12-18 14:18

Looks very promising, love the falling blocks. I couldn't jump in a direction which means I haven't been able to cross the gap, maybe check your keydown and events and for setting up and right/left to true at the same time or something (I had this problem before).

dqmhose 2013-12-18 14:19

Awesome xD It's soooo slow paced but that's half the fun sometimes xDD

joserodolfofreitas 2013-12-18 14:20

I like the concept, though I felt it was too slow. The level design is very cool, especially for the first two levels.
Well done!

anoarith 2013-12-18 14:22

Awesome use of the Theme. I'm stuck because I don't get how to beat the black skeleton though.

rezzish 2013-12-21 08:02

Yes, awkward controls game. Well done!

bowlercaptain 2013-12-21 08:06

The black skeleton was really difficult - up to that point, it had been about preplanning your motions pretty meticulously, but once that was replaced with a challenge of reaction time with so much delay on the controls, the difficulty curve turned vertical. Cool concept - the controls definitely make you feel physically disabled.

sfdnetwork 2013-12-21 20:32

Loved it. Super fun.

seasons 2013-12-22 06:42

i thought this was a really cool take on the theme. it was funny without even trying to be, which i really liked.

the level where there are two caged monsters could have been designed a bit differently. i was able to kill the monster on the left through the bars before flipping the switch.

overall great entry!

alink 2013-12-23 14:44

Funny take on the theme. Also good because games rarely focus in handicap. BTW the thrower was very hard.

tobbez 2013-12-23 14:54

The range of the sword seem a bit shorter than than it looks. Like that the game has a boss would be nice with some more advanced levels.

thepsc1997 2013-12-24 13:01

Haha crazy idea! ;D
Good humor and fun! I like it! :D

onlyslightly 2013-12-27 18:28

Excellent use of theme and really neat mechanic. I really wanted to have that other leg though.

rosastegosaurus 2014-01-02 17:45

i liked it very much. it is a good idea, & very well done game for such a short time period.
i feel bad for laughing ^ v ^

bradleysmith 2014-01-04 23:14

Really neat idea. :)
