36! I like the green sonic. I think the difficulty could ramp up a bit quicker in the beginning as it can be pretty repetitive at first, but once it starts getting fast it gets funner.

Thanks for the feedback. You are right, it can take a while until more heroes enter the castle. I'm going to do a post compo version and will change this.
But image how repetitive the work is, when all castle engineers are at work. Every one, just standing in front of his or her own button. Waiting for the light to go off, just to press the button again. Just to wait again... Those poor bastards.
Hilarious idea! It's a bit slow at first but then gets pretty engaging. I love that each 'hero' has their own effect on hit (like 'Sonic' losing his rings) and the sound effects are adorably hilarious.
Nice game.
Nice work. Could benefit from "more" but that's often the case with game jams.
Had fun killing all sorts of heroes. Got a bit stale after a few minutes but it was still fun to kill things!
33 ! Love the idea. Are the sound "mouth made" ? The whole thing is hilariously good : Great job !
Yes, every sound in this game is "mouth made" :D
I really liked the idea <3
Awesome interpretation of the theme. Loved it.
Nice little Sonic reference. And i love the sounds... Just saying. :P
I love the "Sonic" that loses his rings. SFX are pretty funny too. Cool little game. Good job.
Incredibly clever! I was quite surprised and really enjoyed the game!
Indeed the exact opposite of what I made! :P Love the idea, and the game heroes are really funny :) Well done!
I love it! I like the sounds (I use the same instrument to make mine ;-)) and the graphics. I think the difficulty raises too slow at the beginning at too fast at the end. Good job!
The songs are hilarious as well as the game mechanics ! Awesome game :D
Very nice, the twist on the concept works... a bit boring after a bit, but it was fun while it lasted!
Nice idea! Reminded me a little of Deathrun!
Brillant sound effects ;)
Controls were a bit too "slippery" (increase the drag!), and the game was too easy at first.
Very cool idea however, fun interpretation of the theme.
I like the idea and the buildup of the challenge :)
I "only killed 39 heroes." This was a bit repetitive but the idea is great. It would be nice if there was some variation in the invaders' movements. Nice sounds.
Nice concept!
Cool mechanics,very different and fun to play.. but I found it very hard.. :)
Really sweet use of theme, well done! I included it in part 2 of my LD29 compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :)

This is a really good idea, with some more work put in it I think it would be a successful game
This is a very clever game idea. I really enjoy the idea of the "behind the scenes" bad guy who tries to get at the heroes. Great job with that. Other wise, the game seems a little bit repetitive and it seems as though once you've gotten a bit used to the game you can run around pressing random buttons and still win.
It's nice playing the traps that otherwise frustrate me. The difficulty curve could be adjusted a little bit, but otherwise, it's already a fun game. After a while I didn't even bother using the first four traps anymore because I couldn't get over there in time, so they became kind of useless. Also, the graphics are a bit too silly for my taste, but for 48 hours, it's a great accomplishment overall. :D
The characters remembers me to mario, poor marios :/ *sniff*, pretty funny XD, well done ;)
Inventive use of theme, and has changed my perspective on such platforming games: I'll always be picturing this peculiar little man beneath it all.
Haha, great idea, love it, and fun to play
Very innovative approach to the theme. The engineer's movement could have been a quicker, since the challenge mostly seems to be timing the traps just right. Other than that, this was a fun entry to play, expanding on this would make a great game.
Cool game, nice idea :P
Nice idea, but actual gameplay is bit too repetitive/flat - maybe some different paths for enemies or multiple enemies at same time would made it more enjoyable.. :)
This is a very funny game! xD
Nice concept! Now I will see with different eyes the evil castles and dungeons that exist in many games, hahaha!
If the game had more levels, with different types of traps and heroes in them, it would be AWESOME!
