Nice game! I like it.

daanvanyperen 2014-04-28 10:49

That moment when you try to get the plane and it actually works. The splurgh sound made it for me, especially trying to imagine you having to perform it.

timtipgames 2014-04-28 11:33

This is a good example of how simple components staged well together can create a nice gaming experience. I like the juicyness and the slomo together with the sound on hit is just great :)

tiffi_gaming 2014-04-28 12:36

That slow-mooooooooo! Nice game!

oatsbarley 2014-04-28 13:47

Awesome! The slow motion works really well and it's fun to control.

ilo 2014-04-28 14:34

Haha - that slowmo! And the planes too. :D

attractivenerd 2014-04-29 09:25

Great Gameplay! Would love to see a more advanced version of it afterwards (GUI, more blood, persistent corpses?) haha

iamspencer 2014-04-29 20:40

Really addicting and fun, awesome that I can destroy the plane as well. Bookmarked and will play again :)

neilo 2014-04-29 22:01

Needs some achievements for multi kills and what not :) Nice simple to play game, and pretty fun too.

fullmontis 2014-04-30 08:55

This is a really fun game with great controls, I really like it.

ludipe 2014-04-30 08:56

Nice game! Simple but very fun, reminds me a lot to a flash minigame where you controlled a shark and had to jump to take down ships and planes.

mugwort 2014-04-30 09:24

heh that was cool

digital_sorceress 2014-04-30 10:43

nice. I would have liked to see greater retaliation from the paratroopers. And where is my hiscore? :P Nice to see you use more colours in your games too :)

diptoman 2014-04-30 11:04

Simple and fun! The slow motion was awesome. And it's addicting! The music fits in well. It a bit annoying having to reload it again and again, but it was a great experience overall!

tomvert 2014-04-30 12:07

Awesome ! I felt so powerful destroying planes in slo-mo ! Good job !

bebopbraunbaer 2014-04-30 12:12

great work! had a blast being a worm : D i am sure you know for yourself that it is to easy as it is (- ;

had fun! thx for making it and looking forward to see more

catman 2014-04-30 20:53

Not the first game I see with this concept, but the addition of the killcam made this extremely more satisfying. Good job!

mrshoestore 2014-05-01 00:53

nice, like the slow-mo, and the overall style. also feel the need to watch Tremors now for some strange reason. . . agh who am I kidding, I always have a need to watch Tremors.

gazok 2014-05-01 01:19

Very fun, I liked the slow motion. I couldn't tell if you could kill the planes, but I felt like that would be interesting. I didn't like killing the player if they go too far left or right, though.

gettothechapel 2014-05-01 09:20

fun concept, but could use some more explanation.

flavio 2014-05-01 11:19

Nice gameplay :)
Nice use of the theme aswell
GG

papygaragos 2014-05-01 17:09

Really nice entry. Cute art, good choice of colors, catchy tune...

The slowmo effect was a nice addition too, but I think you should not activate it for each kills, it breaks the rythme a little.

actionremix 2014-05-01 17:50

Why is slow mo so fun?

lacaranian 2014-05-01 18:03

The planes, man, the planes. Finally got killed by lava. Silly me, thinking I could avoid hitting it. Cool game!

sharpcoder 2014-05-01 18:08

A nice entry, for sure! I would have liked to see some indication of my health (or maybe it was there and I didn't get it?) but overall, a super addicting game! Great job.

brotherst 2014-05-01 18:40

very nice. tight controls. I was about to say that it takes a long time for the enemies to spawn but then saw that you can kill the plane. Very graceful solution for those who want things to move along a little faster.

seconddimension 2014-05-01 18:58

Nice solid gameplay

bukaneerz 2014-05-01 19:08

Good job !
The movement are cool !
Maybe you should have added some bonus, or combo, i don't know. But it was cool (:

jools64 2014-05-01 22:42

Really cool game, reminds me a lot of a game called Death Worm. Good graphics, solid controls and nice sound effects. Great work!

sonnybone 2014-05-01 23:46

Very cool with the slo-mo effect. Blowing up my first jet was a life altering experience. :D

euske 2014-05-02 12:43

I liked the slo-mo effect. I hope I could control the player without holding the button.

eni 2014-05-02 17:09

The dynamics of the movement and speed, trying to get to the planes and the slow mo makes this deceptively simple looking game feel really good!

oddly-shaped-pixels 2014-05-02 21:15

So fun!! And that sound!! It actually made me hungry... Nice little game!

arcturusdeluxe 2014-05-02 23:42

That slomo zoom is so damn cool. Even though the gameplay is basic, the sense of style, and the graphics and sound, make it into a surprisingly cool experience.

dreii 2014-05-03 03:58

Doesnt load :( white screen forever

dreii 2014-05-03 03:59

Scratch that! had to press a key or something.

grooveman 2014-05-03 06:25

The slow-mo closeups was really neat and satisfying (though maybe best reserved fer passing certain kill count thresholds for best effect)

ditto 2014-05-04 04:50

This is really cool, I like the slowmo effect when killing! ^^ sounds are really good, I'm gonna guess you made them all with you voice? Entertaining game, congrats! :)

crowbeak 2014-05-04 05:13

I really enjoy it -- the slowdowns at gobbletime make the splashes of blood really apparent and I think the game fits its title well. But the challenge never ramps up. I feel like it really needs that, because it gets monotonous after a while.

snoother 2014-05-04 17:29

Really fun! Though it lacks challenge a bit. The sound effects and music are really quite excellent also.

ehtd 2014-05-04 20:53

Great feel with the slow motion! very cool

rico-albe 2014-05-05 12:06

Slow motion when closely failing a kill made me laugh. Gameplay reminded me of LUFTRAUSERS. Keyboard controls would be a nice addition.

christinaneofotistou 2014-05-05 18:26

haha top marks for fun!

conormn 2014-05-06 01:46

Very nice innovation with the slow-mo and absolutely love the music loop!

managore 2014-05-10 10:50

Very fun! The slow motion really adds a lot to the game.

wademcgillis 2014-05-18 02:30

Moving the mouse outside of the game window moves you at maximum speed.

I couldn't figure out how to lose, so I ran off the side for a bit.

wschorn 2014-05-19 02:00

wow nice! like the movement mechanics but I wish 'graceful' play was more rewarded, top-skimming was the easy way to win for me.

the slow-mo is awesome and really makes the game addictive!
