This is actually quite fun. The controls are clunky, but that's not too bad with this kind of game. The slow effects were maybe a little too intense.

wandersenus 2014-12-07 23:16

an interesting and good game overall

evilobjective 2014-12-08 06:50

This game is hilarious! I had fun.

plauk 2014-12-08 08:10

This is the best thing ever.

rsergiu2003 2014-12-08 08:23

the audio was nice, I was going to rate that very high...

bnmkt 2014-12-08 08:26

Wtff as well ! xD 4/5 :3

bcole99 2014-12-08 08:26

Funny! The slow down was a little too much. It would have been nice to trigger for 'combos' though. I wasn't quite sure how to get the fists to do what I wanted them to do, but it didn't matter. Great job on this!

alter 2014-12-08 08:30

WOW! So funny!
I got the pleasure of killing aliens =)

fede3751 2014-12-08 11:41

5 stars for mood and humor! I laughed so hard playing this game! XD

Drunk Ninja VS Aliens for the WIN!!! One of my favourites so far! Well done!


(Now I have to hand the game over to my son who is begging me to play it)

holyblackcat 2014-12-08 13:31

10/10, that all I can say! :D

yodamaster 2014-12-08 13:52

What does TLDR mean? Can't control anything ...

geeitsomelaldy 2014-12-08 14:21

Maybe tone down the slow-mo a touch. otherwise great fun

fleegle2000 2014-12-08 15:22

I had a lot of fun with this! I had a few minor quibbles, such as the lack of an exit option (I had it fullscreen and had to Alt-F4 to quit) and text being cut off at certain 4:3 resolutions. But the concept is solid and its a fun, challenging, and somewhat random (in a good way) experience. Great work!

maurogik 2014-12-08 19:50

Thanks for all the kind words guys ! I just updated the game to add an Exit button on PC and to tune down the bullet time. Thank you for playing ;)

fanttum 2014-12-08 20:22

Yea, fun game and cool idea. love all the small touches like the shadows.

ellian 2014-12-08 20:25

It's a shame you don't really have control over, like, dodging or something because you when you die it feels a bit unfair...
But man this is FUN.

arkrothe 2014-12-08 20:27

Pretty cool mechanic you've got there! Would have liked it a lot more if their blood was of a different color as I can't tell who punched who :P

mbeierl 2014-12-08 20:28

Woow, very cool character design with some neat spaghetti moves, love it! :)

redsigmagroup 2014-12-08 20:28

I had fun with this actually! I would have liked to be able to have some kind of control over my arms. It made it difficult to fight without getting hit myself.

pfilzweg 2014-12-08 20:34

Plays pretty smooth and I digg the blood effects! But I'am not sure if i figured out how to play it?!

yongcamu 2014-12-08 21:27

Dear God, lol. It's pretty fun! He's got some pretty sick moves, if you do name him, please let it be McGroove. x)

maurogik 2014-12-08 21:54

@yongcamu Sold ! He's named McGroove.
By the way, I just added some pro tip in the description about my special secret move you can do in the game. Try to make the circle with the arrow keys (slowly and keep the rythm), you will start whirling and swinging your arms around. It take a bit of training but once you master it... you'll be unstopable !

error031 2014-12-09 19:15

I had a ton of fun playing it!

mechamew 2014-12-09 22:40

Very fun! Just running away from enemies is super satisfying because of the animation!

Feels like something someone could get really good at with practice!

One suggestion I could make would be to consider making it more clear when you're getting hits in on enemies and when they hit you. Death can be a bit surprising at times. A think a good fix for this would be to have the blood of aliens being different to the ninja's blood.

Otherwise, really enjoyed this - nice work!

lereveur 2014-12-10 00:43

Funny ! I like the mood, even if I always wonder whom is punched between the ninja or the aliens. XD

mrexcessive 2014-12-10 13:27

Hi there. Loved the movements, especially the weird aliens. All quite Drunken Master. Very fluid. Killed quite a lot of them with your suggested whirl moves both directions. Nice music, maybe needs to be a bit quieter than the SFX, or punches louder ... Good job!

kaa 2014-12-10 15:03

Very cool idea! Drunk ninja turned very well. Hard to master in such simple game. And, as was mentioned, creepy aliens are cute

joshua_burr 2014-12-10 19:13

Easily one of my favourite entries yet. Good job. I found that the slow motion was a bit too slow.

scam 2014-12-10 20:59

It never ceases to amaze what kind of bizarre gems one can find when going through LD entries. This has been one of the funniest games I've played. I loved the music and the use of slow-mo. It would have been nice to have more control over the character, though.

lightsoda 2014-12-10 22:54

Pretty fun, I totally did your pro tip and swung the arms around. A couple more moves would've added to the fighting :)

Also the text are just blocks for me, and this, I don't know if it's intentional: http://i.imgur.com/DaGLnF4.png

silii 2014-12-11 13:45

Wohahaha. Hard :D
5 Innovation for me ~

andynonomous 2014-12-12 03:20

Lol, the music and the wackiness make this game more fun than it deserves to be. Good job!

off 2014-12-12 13:06

Really fun idea, it's hard to manage the move of the arm, but with a more realistic skeleton and joint it could make something really fun to play.
The bullet time effect on hit is awesome and give a great depth to the gameplay.
It only lack of more precision, and even variation, but that's one of the rare beatthemall in this LD.

rnlf 2014-12-13 15:13

This is the funniest game I have seen in this jam so far. I think the music is contrasting the wiggly movement of the player character really nicely. Good job!

stormandy 2014-12-18 23:49

:D This is a really bizarre and fun game, the sound effects really add to it.
