I like the music, and the voice work is quite hilarious. Might want to perhaps put the tutorial messages over the player or somewhere near him though, that's where your eyes are most likely to be focused while playing after all.

The graphics are really cheerful and the harpoon mechanic was interesting. Music felt a bit off with the rest of the game though. Good job!
Physics were a little wonky, and the mechanics of the torch and harpoon didn't really lead to particularly interesting gameplay, but they didn't get in the way much either.
The level design had some interesting elements in it. Collecting the bonus for example could only be done by backtracking, though one didn't have to use the slow harpoon to get back to the first zombie platform, which was a small nicety. Also the fact that zombies wouldn't always spawn above the same platform where they end up wandering caught me off guard a few times before I learned how to navigate the level safely.
Not sure what the point of collecting loot is, other than to just do it, but I suppose the collection mechanic was at least implemented and tested well. Also not sure if there are a finite number of identical levels, or if it just goes on forever, increasing the level number.
The voice acting was fun, and fit the music well. Could have benefited from some ambient zombie noises.
Nice intro - funny SFX!
Ran a little slow in FF though
Great execution. I love it! Maybe with more speed on actions and enemies would be 10/10
awesome job guys - like to see families working on this together
Nice voices, very fun. The game need to be more fast, but at least I like it. Great job.
This was cute. Died when an enemy spawned on my head, though.
Nice mechanics with harpoon!Some collisions have problem but it' doesn't matter.You can improve it from now on :) keep up!
Pssst! You are in today's Ludum Dare to Believe! - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpmlKDMEGYo
The audio is great, good job Blake!
Physics did feel a little floaty and there wasn't a whole lot to combat (or puzzle solving). Cute pixel art though, the princess face got me to click :)
The voice acting is funny and the artwork is really nice, well done.
Just gameplay-wise there wasn't much exciting to do, and the torch wasn't very reliable. Just hammering Z seemed like the most reliable way.
Is it a set of identical levels, or does it just increase the level counter? That's bothering me, I need to know!
