Dang that was hard lol but very creative and fun game!

grillaface 2014-08-26 02:00

is there a mac / web build?

shivafang 2014-08-26 02:03

Best game I've played so far.

teamquadratic 2014-08-26 02:12

@Seraphic Media Glad you enjoyed! Sorry about the difficulty. Balancing a game isn't easy in such a short time!

@grillaface I may look into making a web build in the next couple of weeks, but I wouldn't count on it, sorry.

@ShivaFang Wow, glad you liked it so much. Thanks for playing!

I agree with others, the game is really challenging, but if you have patience and study the enemy movements, it is solvable. Nice project!

Loved the comic book style!

I found the protractor button after some experimentation. I am not sure if there is a ruler.

se1by 2014-08-26 04:47

Chrome blocks the download for me :o

teamquadratic 2014-08-26 04:50

@hamster_mk_4 No ruler, sorry. The controls are mentioned above though.

@se1by Yeah, I've gotten reports of that in the past. Normally uploading it in a .zip folder fixes it, which is included in the post, but if not I can't really do anything about it.

Final boss is somewhat tricky.
Great job! I like it!

caliberproject89 2014-08-27 00:49

Love the creative input for each level. No bosses are created equal, you'll have to find ways of effectively defeating them. Awesome game!

cosmos 2014-08-27 03:47

Haha, ouph, tough game. I liked that each level and boss had it's own personality, and some thought obviously went into the placement of platforms. Great job.

rrootagea 2014-08-27 04:36

Best final boss of all time

chuigum 2014-08-27 05:30

Nice intro! Great music and pretty good work overall

randomnamegenerator 2014-08-27 05:47

Great game! Loved the artwork!!

stepwise 2014-08-27 06:03

Great intro like everyone has mentioned. I found the bosses rather unforgiving, though solvable indeed for how to fight them. Felt like the game could have benefited a lot from physics having more time spent on them. Again great pacing for the opening sequence, had a few giggles.

Really cool game, and THANK YOU for adding a button to skip levels, otherwise I'd be stuck on Mercury! It would be nice if you could see farther on that level... if you're at the top of the screen, you have no time to react before meteors hit you.

perpetualraine 2014-08-27 06:40

Fun game! Loved the comic art in the beginning.

maike 2014-08-27 08:23

Great game, I like difficult games :)!

zoneone2 2014-08-27 15:53

Haha, this was fun. The comics looked really nice.

sevenkingdomssurvivors 2014-08-28 01:47

Funny theme. Nice job!

robert_steiner 2014-08-28 07:13

Mercury was terrible (music and the fact that it's basically Doom 2 boss, that I always hated :) ), but the game is pretty solid. Good job.

naksrifati 2014-08-28 07:17

Make it till the end. Cool graphics, and funny characters) For me actually the bosses were quite easy)) Had a lot of fun)

robot-souls-games 2014-08-28 21:29

Why does he look different in each illustration?

otrorainteractivo 2014-08-29 16:25

Can be a bit difficult, but that is ok. Glad I find it, is really nice

mechabit 2014-08-30 22:51

cool theme

h1s2 2014-09-07 08:20

i liked the comic style storytelling very much! cool game over all. catchy tunes, nice artwork. some enemies were pretty hard to beat. :)

mysterycjgamer 2014-09-09 00:43

Nice, pretty silly too.
But it's also really hard because of projectiles coming from awkward positions all the time...

snicklodocus 2014-09-12 02:25

I liked the comics! Platforming was difficult since it was difficult to control the Jack. I liked the music but it seemed to stop after being on a level for a while. But, great job!
