I love the camera work. and pixel arts are so cute!

Kinda creepy and really fun :) you really had me at the zoom out effect :D

The electricity(?) shooting off the 'moles' was just... wrong. :D

Very funny! I liked the way you introduced the character and thereby made it a tutorial. The graphics weren't terrible, but weren't incredible to stare at. The game play was pretty cool, but there's no reason to not just spam the spacebar over and over again, which made my thumb tired. It would have been much better to just be able to hold it down since there was no cooldown on the attack anyway. The difficulty scaled really fast, I got to 120 moles and instantly died. Pretty fun game, well done!

Hah, the zoom out really surprised me! Quick question, is the signal just a time limit or is it actually affected by how many moles are on the surface?

It's affected by the number of moles on screen doing their electricity thing!

The music is awesome! And the camera movement revealing the rest of the map was also pretty good. Pretty and simple, good job :)

Very nice! Loved the humor and the main game art!

Nice effect with the zoom out.

Awesome! This was really fun. I was so eager to know what happens in the end. ^^

AMAZING! The tutorial character bio was fantastic, the moles were cute and then became extremely menacing, the zooming out was brilliantly done, and the congregation leading to poor phone signal was bonkers! The Overlord called, and it wasn't good news! :D

Very fun game, short, but very fun. I did notice a little bug: whenever you whack a mole right before it starts emitting radio wave, the mole disappears but the wave stays until you whack it. Good job :)

what a twist!, really cool idea and hitting the "moles" was entertaining

rezzish 2014-05-01 23:47

I loved your overall idea here. Good work!

I got the hang of it after my first game, but I only managed to get 100 points, I can see that no one else has posted their highscore D:<
