Haha, hilarious! :D Also you just totally went Spec Ops: The Line on me.

supremefist 2013-12-16 09:52

I prefer Star Trek :)

jellycakes 2013-12-16 09:52

Haha that was surprisingly funny. Nice simple gameplay too, I didn't get very far (I kept dying). Still had fun though. Nice job!

milugames 2013-12-16 09:54

Quite humorous, a bit surreal. Good job!

The ending was the best part!

robinerd 2013-12-16 09:56

nice one! Good feeling, smooth controls, and a very funny back story! Good use of the theme as well. But I failed at the flying head since I killed him outside the wall then I couldn't reach him.

stephan_h 2013-12-16 09:57

Hahaha. Hilarious. Funniest entry so far.
I especially liked the voice over.

Controls and graphics could of course use more work. Some elements like the text bubbles did not go well with the old-school graphics style.
Z-Rendering on those workers worked not always and some text was therefore hidden by another worker.

Haha, humorous, I enjoyed it although you lost marks for portraying Murdoch as a Australian. We want nothing to do with him, he is American now.

feizenbara 2013-12-16 10:12

Fun entry :-)

Ok, this is crazy - but "You only get one season of Firefly" surely is the best take on the theme so far! :D

sebastian 2013-12-16 10:43

Hehe, quite odd! I love the huge, empty emmy cabinet ;)

bodsey 2013-12-16 11:17

Awesome take on the theme, I wish I could better see the comment the guys make

alcorrius 2013-12-16 12:24

Oh my God!)) Why I didn't watch FireFly? Because I don't want to kill everybody on Fox I guess =)
Nice game! I think some HP bar would be helpfull. Good job!

deathbysnail 2013-12-16 13:36

Cool concept. Now I need to re-watch Firefly :(

plugnplay 2013-12-16 15:30

A little bit weird, but fun nonetheless :) .

intelligentbean 2013-12-16 22:31

This is a very unique idea for a game. I like the concept and the sense of humor. That artwork looks really nice too.

donutttt 2013-12-16 22:53

Ha I've not watched Firefly... but I want to now. I feel it must be worth it lol. Fun game though

dustystylus 2013-12-17 00:00

Haha, I like the Murdoch graphic! I actually just walked past everyone in level 1 and it said "Workers Killer: 100"... is that right? I loved the ending.

korwegian 2013-12-17 00:11

Six seasons and a movie!

robotloveskitty 2013-12-17 01:30

Right in the feels!

integershift 2013-12-17 02:07

That was really funny!
I ran into a bug at the end. The floating head just dissipated and I couldn't do anything.

xezko 2013-12-17 02:27

This is hilarious! haha, well done!

mistertubbs 2013-12-17 03:24

I've never seen Firefly before (don't even know if its real!), but I loved this game!:)

kunzbe 2013-12-17 03:25

I died, a lot

tchem 2013-12-17 03:46

Awesome!!!!

codecranker 2013-12-17 03:57

haha. Funny game!!

ras-lyon 2013-12-17 08:52

Wow. I don't really care for Joss Whedon, so I didn't know what to expect. But I appreciated the games sense of humor.

xk 2013-12-17 10:15

That was quite enjoyable! Nice take on a theme!

twitchseventeen 2013-12-17 11:23

Love it!

lissar 2013-12-17 11:57

In my defense, I stabbed him because I was in a video game.

danielsnd 2013-12-17 12:48

Really funny, good game.

kookoon 2013-12-17 13:27

Hilarious!
Awesome game.

gre 2013-12-17 14:45

This was psycho!

2013-12-17 15:06

The empty shelves labelled 'Emmies' was probably my favourite bit. Can I have a game about murdering the Fox News staff too? That doesn't sounds crazy does it?

garygreen 2013-12-17 20:50

Funny take on the theme - I wonder if this game will inspire them to bring Firefly back?

bradleysmith 2013-12-17 21:12

Rated highly for humor! xD

christina-nordlander 2013-12-18 00:07

OK, I'm laughing hard. Might be the funniest LD entry I've ever played. The gameplay isn't anything innovative, but not bad (though I would have liked some sort of visible hitpoints; I got killed quite a few times), but the comedy is excellent. The graphics are simple, but funny: the only thing I'd improve is the walking animation.

SPOILERS


My favourite part was the bit where the game calls our browncoated hero out for going on a killing spree over a TV show. The executives' dialogue was an absolute riot, too.

Great job!

christina-nordlander 2013-12-18 00:08

Forgot to mention: best take on the theme so far.

braindeadgeo 2013-12-18 00:11

Awww man, all these positive comments are amazing, love you all :)

jupiter_hadley 2013-12-18 03:04

Funny game. Nice use of theme and good job! I included this game in my Ludum Dare Compilation series, if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/6i2NO94dPrk

This was pretty awesome, I enjoyed it quite a bit. I liked how the guys were sort of like, zombie-like and the blood spraying everywhere was a nice touch.
