Wow, fun game indeed, you really have the skills for something bigger here, I wish you whould have found an artist and made this game for the jam, because it plays great and i whould love to have an equal level of gratness on the graphics part :)

Nice work, have really enjoyed the "hammer management" aspect

It's a cool little game and the core mechanic is really solid but I think some more variety, both in enemies and player powerups, would give this game much more longevity and bring some more interesting challenges into the mix. It's a nice game though, all you need now is some spice! :)

This is really awesome, one of those games that feels great. Congrats!

The Game isnt much for the eye, but the controls and responsiveness of the Hammerswing just feel so good. I really enjoyed just swinging the Hammer.

SMASHING entry! Funny physics. I was popping pills everywhere. I think movements control would have been better by mouse. Maybe? Good job! - LL

Nice entry. Proper graphic and it's a hit. The smashing feels good ! The moves of the character is perfect. We feel the weight of the hammer. BTW, I saw your comment on my game. Thanks for your feedback. I fixed the little bug. You can retry if you wish ;-)

I'll check back when you have a version that works without a plugin. Windows build would be acceptable too :P. Too bad you didn't have a controller to play my game with.

Ask and ye shall receive...

Thanks for the windows build, would've knocked myself out but seems like you can't hit yourself in this game ":D".

I am saddened that there's such a thing as a hammer too big, I had to keep switching for smaller hammers so that I could actually move too. And I guess what they say is true; when all you have is a hammer (or a few) everyONE will start to look like nails.

Nice feel of physics :)

+ I like the weight of the hammer and the cartoony effect of the player and enemy characters.

- It would have been nice if the camera could be moved around, maybe with the mouse?

+ The progression of difficulty and the way the hammers grew was really smooth and fun :)

Wonderful submission!

Lot of fun

A unique concept but it seemed hard to use the hammer after a couple upgrades so that I was always just throwing it out for a new one. From the other comments it seems like getting a giant hammer was much of the entertainment of the game.

Okay it's been a few days so I'm going to drop a bombshell: there are a couple of cheat codes in the game if you want to test the extent of the engine. Hitting l will ensure your hammer levels up on the next swing. Hitting p will give you a free coin. Baddies get tougher and faster every 5 coins.

Have fun.

the4thcircle 2015-04-23 03:10

That's L and P, sorry. Should have made them upper case.

jacob-peltola 2015-04-23 15:11

That was awesome, would definitely play a more polished version of this if further developed

It's simple and I love it!
