Seems like it could be fun if there was some element working against you (time or something). I enjoyed the graphics, but I like pixely artwork.
What was the purpose of the empty platform on the right?
We wanted to make more torture devices, but my friend did not have time :( And this is the main reason why it's so little.
uh, I thought it was a bug that the game stuck at one screen. Figured it out 1 second before leaving hehe.
So edgy....

Good first entry! I found a small bug that the game would not send down the final sinner if two people were in the cage. My only other complaint was the sound was a bit loud.
Most points for inovation and you could have scored more on fun if it was a bit longer! Good concept and was worked out good! (maybe next time add bgm too?)
Funny for sure, i do really like the pixel art, but i would like to be able to torture them more after their bar is filled
PUNISH HIM
haha, loved the voice acting.
fun game a bit short though (and don't know what the third platform is for)
cool idea
Nice art. Audio created a nice disturbing mood.
I think that the game is fun, but too simple. With more elements and tools to "play", the game would be awesome, but nice game, good graphics and it has an original gameplay.
I love the sound effects, but gameplay is a little barebones.
Prety nice game and sound!

I know it's too simple, but we didn't have time. Unfortunately, you can't edit game.
It seems the most effective way to punish is to just drop sinners into lava.
Could be a nice game with variety and it had more gameplay to it.
Also did not like usage of stereotypes for sinners. There are so many things you could have come up to punish people for and you chose what you did. A bit disappointing.
Hi, this is Vector from the Victory Garden team! (posting under Solifuge's account)
This is a neat idea, and the graphics are great! I guess the main thing I'd ask is why you'd have the bar need to be filled up by repeatedly using different machines, instead of putting a person in a machine and having the bar fill automatically.
Maybe consider leaving out the racism and other such things (you know what I'm talking about) next time. You can make a great game without them.
@Solifuge
Because we have few people, and filling bar automatically would make our game even shorter.
There's no racism! And of course I'm not a racist. I hate them. Normal sins would be boring. Just chill out, guys :)
great job =)
Not exactly subtle, but nice graphics.
Congrats on your first LD entry!
Well there you go
Nice idea, executed perfectly, and I see a creeper face in the rocks xD
Fun.
There is a good idea in here somewhere, needs more interaction with the punishments though to make me want to play longer. Like to see where you could take the idea.
But I don't like the stereotypes either, pretty lame design choice!
No real gameplay,but hey, it's funny and a bit weird :)
Very nicely done. Funny entry :)
I SOOO wish there were more torture tools... when the fat guy broke the machine I laughed! Nice work :D
These stereotypes are not acceptable. Even stepping past how offensive they are, the use of any stereotype is only a substitute for humour or originality. The sad thing is, this had the potential to be funny, had you attempted to subvert stereotypes instead of enforcing them.
I won't validate this by rating it, but I hope that you learn from the negative reactions and make better games in future.

It's an ok game. Pretty nice graphics. Gameplay is a little lacking, but the general concept could be fun. Wasn't too offended by the stereotype humour but it did seem a bit, well, dumb, to be honest. Not bad overall.
Could have a fun little game here with some more gameplay.
The "kfc" and "watermelon" stuff was not ok. Do some research as to why.
Aha! I had this same exact idea once, and it is on my 'games to do when I have time' list, so props for making it a reality! :D
The game concept (being Hell's manager) is interesting, too bad about the stereotypes.
It was a cool concept until I encountered the shoddy gameplay and weird, racist stereotypes.
