I love that upon entering "murica", "freedom", "eagle", and such, appropriate pictures appeared. Besides that it was kinda hard to figure out what to do and how to jump high enough for the walls. The music was a tasteful touch :)
I LOVE the concept. The game was very fun, funny, and well made. Great job!

It was interesting how you could jump on your ammo infinitely. I managed to go too far forward and glitch out the game! :D The music got annoying quickly because of the odd instruments and repeating. It did add to the mood of the game though. `MURICA!! YEAH!!
Fun music, good sense of humor and interesting concept. Good work.
Really enjoyed searching for all the different kinds of ammo. kept getting shot by people off screen, which was a little annoying. and it seemed like the ammo got in the way of my jumps. But a very innovated take on the theme

great idea
but, kinda hard when facing more than 1 enemy, because you must type fast to reload another ammos

Good fun and a good idea. Reminded me a little of Scribblenauts.
Man this is really fun. I'm not sure that it finds just anything that im looking for in its search engine but perhaps thats better for screen shots. The control is fun and bouncy it reminds me of earthworm jim circa sega genesis days. I hope the NSA don't give you any trouble.
Great graphics, awesome job. Is it actually hitting a search service to find the pictures?

Ingenious mechanic! Search results in the game are brilliant.
Concept was good... Music was absolutely terrible. Nothing I searched came up properly.

Creative idea, solid game. Well you can type "asd" "as" etc and still get ammo but i suppose if type that in google you will also get some results.
Wilhelm scream is a nice touch :D
Cool concept, glad to see the finished game, with ending :) I must admit, I cheated a bit by jumping on the ammo ;P

very original concept, one of the most interesting implementations of the theme I've played.
the search system introduces its own humor and tenseness to the combat though screw the bit by the server where you throw multiple enemies at once is very punishing
Haha funny and pretty cool :D

'MURICA!, hahaha, really great idea and execution!, love it, especially that search ammo even though i didn't get the point xD
nice one !
Video games masquerading as biting anti-authoritarian social commentary! I'll admit I spent a while seeing what, if anything, I could get past the radar of the ammo search service, but no dice - looks like Google SafeSearch has served your game well!
The music got a tad repetitive though.

Really clever ammo system using search terms. Not allowing reuse was a good decision but makes it that much harder. Thankfully most strings of characters produce search results.
I thought at first the ammo count was dependent on the number of search results or popularity, later realizing it's based on health. Given how your mobility's restricted when you're carrying ammo, I think the capacity/health penalty is a little stiff.
That anthem music comes on really strong. It fits the theme, but might be better used sparingly.
The level layout seemed good and the game over screen was funny. There could be a little more visual feedback when you take a hit so you know when the game over's coming.
Keep it up!
nice one, ever get any search's that returned no results?
Good Game, had fun.
