Fun game, makes me think of the old kung fu game on 8-bit Nintendo. I like the physics of the mug, it's fun to watch it bounce up and down and kill multiple opponents before you need to pick it up again.

That mug catch and combo is surprisingly awesome.

sirikan 2015-04-20 05:53

Nice game. Fits the theme perfectly.

Another booze related entry eh?? I like it!

Had a blast playing this one, good work

pietdagamer 2015-04-20 05:55

I like the mug-catching mechanic!

barkergames 2015-04-20 05:55

Had fun with this one, I had no idea that the mug would go over the enemies, lost my streak because of it :(
Great job!

awmace5 2015-04-20 06:25

Unique idea!

Very fun! Especially with the combos. Throwing backwards may have been easier or harder, im not sure but they got past me a couple times.

lizzip 2015-04-20 08:30

Really fun, even if I keep accidentally throwing my mug at the ceiling. At least the ceiling knows not to mess with me

spotlightor 2015-04-20 14:39

I really enjoyed the combo hits!

Pretty fun game, there seems to be a bug when you lose because one time i lost and hit play again and all the other guys were still there and i died instantly.

iaknihs 2015-04-20 19:19

This game is much more fun than it probably should be. Really neat catchy-bouncy mechanic!

sbarrio 2015-04-20 19:40

Pretty hard but very rewarding. I like the idea, nice job! :)

jordyadan 2015-04-20 20:34

Liked the attack mechanic

xgor 2015-04-20 20:48

Neat take on the theme and it's fun. I feel that it would be even more fun and chaotic if the mug bounced in different directions than just up.

Oh yeah, I found a bug that if you click start quickly after you die the actors doesn't despawn.

dungeonation 2015-04-21 18:32

The game doesn't reset after a few games, and as soon as you start playing you die, but other then that this is not a bad game. Good job!

nihilaleph 2015-04-21 18:34

Really fun, great game mechanics! Awesome art too!
I just think the gunslinger could throw his mug a bit stronger xp

atomicvikings 2015-04-21 19:23

I had extreme fun with it
got a score of 3k on hard, beat that!!

Woa. I always wanted to kill angry lumbers with a mug :) Nice job guys :) 5/5

Nice game. I thought the mug fullness on the menu to indicate difficulty was a nice touch.

smilingcat 2015-04-24 17:47

Great use of the theme, nice job!

hectigo 2015-04-24 17:49

It's a fun, well-executed simple concept. I like the combo mechanic and the overall wackiness of it. The game sorely needs some music though.

randoman 2015-04-24 17:56

Very nice game! It is not possible to face/trhow backwards? Enemies would go behind my back a few times but I couldn't turn

renanlindner 2015-04-24 17:58

Really nice mechanic ideia man!!

ididgame 2015-04-24 18:06

the mugslinger is the kinda man who doesn't look back
...
or his developer didn't think of that until last minute and did not want to change the formula too much but will probably try it once compo is over because it makes sense

wevel 2015-04-24 21:13

Nice game, nice mechanics and fun to play

simianlogic 2015-04-30 18:40

Nice little game! I like the way he pulls his arm back to show how powerful a throw it's going to be.

At first I thought it was REALLY easy, then I realized I wasn't moving my mouse at all from eye-level. If your mouse is higher or lower the throws get a lot harder, but I never saw any reason to move the mouse at all.

Would love to add a jump to jump up and catch my mug instead of having to wait for it to drop.

gafblizzard 2015-04-30 19:23

It would be nice if there were a final goal. I thought with the difficulty level I might need to defeat some number of waves, maybe like Streets of Rage or Ninja Turtles.

Nice idea and pixel art though!

rfgpfeiffer 2015-05-01 22:21

(@OhHelloTilman using the account to rate games) That you have to catch the mug to stay in the game is a really nice idea for the theme and an interesting game design idea with potential. Nice and fun game. I would prefer it if the difficulty would increase whilst you play, instead of having three levels. There was a bug where enemies stay in the scene when playing more than once (its a small game, so its easy eenough to press reload ;) ).

zener 2015-05-02 07:31

Cool idea, 8 bit graphics and beer, perfect game!

2015-05-05 01:47

Cute pixel art & fun times!!

jupiter_hadley 2015-05-12 23:42

Funny game, great concept and graphics! I included it in part 10 of my Ludum Dare 32 compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/3cEj0moqZLI
