It is too difficult to control. But the beginning of the game, I got the experience of being a new Jesus. I could walked on the Sea.

Agree. Hard to control, but the concept is loveably weird.

Couldn't get any input to work on my mac unfortunately, but it looks cool

Zany and funny. I couldn't beat spoon guy though... I didn't die, my attacks just didn't seem to do anything. I also got stuck in walls a few times and needed to restart.

Contrary to some other comments, I liked the controls. I thought the oft unpredictably powerful double jump was fun, and while the character did slide quite a bit, I thought it fit the game's silliness.

I just wish I didn't get stuck in the walls so much :(

Thanks, I have to say I (the programmer) didn't put much work into this game -.- that's why the controls are so wierd and thats why you can get stuck and so on...

the jumping though is intentionally :) if you double tap space you're supposed to jump the highest and by waiting a long time before hitting space the 2nd time you can travel a long distance sidewards. If you wait until te character is falling you do even ignore the downwards speed and jump as if you had no velocity to begin with.
Sometimes you can't jump from cause you're walking upwars but thats actually cuse you get stuck in the ground.

Well, anyway thaks for playing and the feedback.
I'm sorry for the problems with mac. I probably won't look into it though.

Interesting gameplay.

Hilarious. I love the graphics, even thought they're doing a great job. It needs polish, but without it makes it even more hilarious.
Mechanics are nice, innovative and hilarious. Everything is hilarious. It's hard to control, but I missed that feeling for a while and doesn't make the game any worse. Sillyness rules.
I got stuck on the level with the guy with the spoon unfortunetely.
Great work.

Interesting but complicated to control.

Weird. But I have a thing for this snotty art style.

As you said, there could have been more effort in the programming. I gave up after getting stuck for the fourth time. And an explanation of the controls in-game could have helped.

Hope more people got the reference to the Horribly Slow Murderer with the Extremely Inefficient Weapon. Nice :D

Fun game, but the buggy controls ruins it a bit.

wir 2015-05-02 11:04

haha nice philipp, thats exactly what we refered too ^^ (the reason why he is immortal) his only purpose is to annoy you like interrupting your jump

first we had it a bit more serious but as the first day passed and after loosing even more interest we keept making it even more weird (too keep us going)

well thanks for playing our game, we hope you had at least some fun
