Loved it, great fun once I started to get the hang of the controls and pull off combos. Great job on the graphics!

Not able to play. Freezes on the loading screen.

This is pretty awesome :)

Once I got ahold of the controls... (btw, you should list what they are in your description)

I felt like I was playing the best Souls game of Ludum Dare 32. Combat felt very visceral and weighty.

Wow this has great game feel. I got so much satisfaction out of pummeling donuts. You did a great job capturing and implying the force of each impact through your animations. Great job!

Really like the game feel, especially concerning feedbacks and camera movements. I enjoyed this funny little game and loved the combat. Pretty solid entry !

Nice FX

Very fun, but a bit hard for my taste

Great controls, but I feel an lack of personality.

llamaguy 2015-04-21 13:18

Good try.Great controls, but I feel an lack of personality.

quite fun game, i love the title screen, the font and background really nice, but it didn't fit nicely with the player sprite or enemy sprite, quite odd i must say
but nontheless, really nice game

Feels very good, plays smoothly. The only thing I'd like is some knockback when the player is hit. Great job!

The first thing that came to my mind: that's a LOOOT of screenshake! Looks like someone enjoys sfx ;D

Fighting muffins & donuts in hell with a spoon is pretty fun experience, I liked it.

But I got a few freezes and controls look a bit buggy :(

Pretty good for being a jam game. The graphics are nice and the animations are really smooth and bouncy, you really feel like everything has its weight.
Good concept overall and well realized, just a bit boring and pretty monochromatic.

Well done! I liked this one.

kcrimson 2015-04-21 20:18

Think the enemies had too much health, fighting them felt like trying to chop down a tree.

The game is extremely fun! Well done! The music is good, the controls were easy to get accustomed to, fit the theme. Well done!

Nice, loved how solid the attacks felt.

jdaivaliotis 2015-04-22 03:40

Hi everyone, thanks for all the great feedback!

The game has issues loading in Safari due to it's inablity to playback ogg files. I'll try to fix that asap.

jackrugile 2015-04-25 03:18

Man, this is awesome! I love getting combos and time slow down when attacking. Some things I think could improve it if you continue to develop this:

1. Sound effects (might just be an issue in Chrome, I saw them loading in the network tab, but didn't hear them. I only heard the music).
2. More detailed levels with terrain that can be used strategically.
3. A little quicker response time on the thrust of the spoon. It felt a little unwieldy at times. I love that you can influence the direction and action of the attack, but adding a quicker response time would bring it all together in my opinion.

Overall, an awesome game! I used Playground.js for my game as well. It looks like you really put it to good use, so many cool animations in your game.

And now I want a donut...

Nice game, theme buddy!
But please don't use Z and X as keys for those of us with a qwertz keyboard...

working perfectly on chromium for Linux. Pretty funny game, loved it! The controls were a little difficult to master (awsd player here :p), but not a problem at all. Nice music too!
