Very little space to move in and i have the fieling that the lazer doesn't work yet, but love the visuals and the idea!

Hard game with great visuals and idea. I managed to get a score of 6 :) Those special weapons are realy hard to get.

The heartquake animation is so long :( But the concept is very good, congratulations !

the concept here is fucking great. a little hard to actually play, but i love the look, love the worm smashing up the city. this is awesome.

Actual game play was a little bit tricky. Probably just the placement of the "jump" button. Great concept, and nicely delivered with it's style.

fun idea! I loved the simple graphics

Nice concept and art. The jump is very loose. I felt that if I made it to a new platform, a little bit of friction should keep me from sliding off more often.

Or the price to pay when gravity fails. Fun concept! But a little bit too hard to play (wider platforms or/and more friction would do well).

That end animation ahahaha
Love the idea but the platforms are way too distant.

Good job tho :)

Nice monster! Very hard to difficulty though.

Pretty hard to get the hang of the controls, but it's fun to play it.

Interesting concept. If the earthquake sequence at the end wasn't so long it wouldn't be so frustrating to lose! The graphics look great though and the earthquake animation does look awesome. It's a bit tough to focus on hitting the worm, platforming and dodging rocks all at the same time, but I enjoyed it. I did manage to get a 3.95 on my last attempt. Good job!

Hard game, maybe too hard for me.

Almost impossible to get the 2nd laser and the city animation takes too long, maybe let you skip to the score with a button. Could be expanded with more weapons and traps if you wanted to keep working on it.

felt game could have been better if the jumping/movement was better and the restart didn't take as long to show up, so you could quicky get back into it. Otherwise nice job!

I like the game, but like others have said it's quite hard (And I like hard games)and has some "bugs" (like not knowing if your shots are doing anything and powerup sound only firing the first time)

Also, I think you might have made it unwinnable, because I got every power up and shot just about as frequently as possible and I could only get down to 4.3

If you have a game where the end score is better when lower then everybody is going to want to know what happens if you get a score of 0... However I think you might have made that impossible for this game, that or the falling rocks do lots of damage to him and they appear to be random.

Your idea was very very solid, your execution was a bit clunky though, still overall I quite liked it. (Even if it is unwinnable)

Thanks guys for the feedback. I am planning to make a better verion with your sugestions! :)

tyruspeace 2014-05-05 05:04

Cool concept, but the speed of the movement and size of the platforms means I never felt like aiming/firing was super useful. I like the idea, but I think your idea'd have a better chance at shining if you made the shooting feel more productive and doable than it does now.
