I'm sorry, I can't play this, Linux and Web only.

The movement being bound to the direction the character faces is pretty awkward. Also found a bug where if you shoot while too close to a wall, it hits the wall right away - effectively doing nothing.

Interesting. Could use more sound effects. I like the setting of the game though.
Overall: It's ok. The art is cool and the music was ok. Game play, basic.

nice concept, but make a mac build next time

Playing this game backwards is super fun.

Really cool use of the theme. The movement is kind of weird be cause your mouse not only aims, but changes the orientation of the player making it sometimes difficult to move around. Besides that its very good!

Agreed on the movement being awkward. It's also a little annoying how the screen jerks every time you fire a shot.

That was super difficult to control! But I liked the art a lot.

Nice idea (elastic bands/pencil case), however I feel it's poorly executed.
Gameplay could use some work, as the concept is overly simple, especially for a jam entry. Considering this was a team of four, I honestly expected more...
The music, however, was my favourite part of the game and kept the whole thing enjoyable.

Really fun! Loved the visuals and the music, and the images and words drawn on the notebook were hilarious.
Gameplay was fun, and I liked that you left the option open to change the level design around by going to the narrow upper level.

Best game ever, 10/10, would play all day... all night... Johnny, la gente esta muy loca, wtf! ... Btw, awesome drawing! Music was amazing! The 3D models are perfectly done and game functionality is neat! Good job guys!

I liked the music! cool entry!

Really cool music, and the gamepad controls were really smooth. Nice use of the theme, too.

Having a few sound effects (like one for each of the types of shot, one for hitting an enemy and another for an enemy hitting you) would have helped the immersion a lot, but a solid entry all the same.

Linux please :/

Decent enough, but feels like you were mostly interested in figuring out UE4. The result is fun enough to play, but the UI is seriously lacking. I couldn't actually see my own health because the game refused to go full screen.
