I really like this game. The weapons are fantastic, the movement is awesome. The graphics could use a little polishing, but still very nice. Overall very clever game.

All the different types of weapons made this game really cool and innovative. Really neat animations too! The puzzles were fun to figure out.
The only issue I had was that some puzzles were time based, and it was hard to switch weapons fast enough. It was doable after dying and knowing exactly which ones to use the second time.

Awesome game! The gameply play is just right, and the puzzle were well made. I hope there will be a new version with more levels to play, I really enjoyed the game!

Nice creativity in the weapons. It may have been neat to get a "You win" screen or something, instead of it looping, but the concept alone is pretty nice. Nice puzzles.

Very good job! I got a little frustrated on at a few moments, and almost quit, but the game kept me playing long enough to make it through all the levels.

I never ended up needing the wooden statue; I used the car as a weight before I discovered the statue existed. Tried to use the statue at the very end when the spikes descended into the water, but was disappointed to find out that it didn't float, so I simply had to restart the level.

Controls felt a little stiff, but not so bad that I couldn't do what I need to do.

The variety of "weapons" was fun. Though the fun was lessened when I had to micromanage three different weapons in a short period of time to get through a spot. But that's just because that's not my preferred style of play.

Good idea! maybe assigning a key for each object instead of having to cycle through all of them in the middle of the action.

A very good entry. Liked the humour a lot with the different guns =D

Really enjoyed all the different guns. Fun game. Would like to see more levels done

I like all the different weapon mechanics, good platforming as well,
GOOD JOB

I don't know why, but this is one of my favorites! I love how you could just spawn everything, and it felt like there could be more puzzles added to this easily! Well done!

gjvonn 2015-04-21 22:07

The levels are awesome, and the mechanic is totally cool! It gets a little confusing since there are so many, though.

snade 2015-04-21 22:07

A very solid entry, well made! good game! I wish there were more levels.

I need a linux build!

The egg-laying, milk-bearing woolly sow of weapons!

Fun puzzles, although I think some items could have used a slower introduction. Using combinations of items in short succession was the point where the game really began to shine.

Good work man!
Really fun game

murilo 2015-04-21 23:09

Thanks everyone for the comments!! To answer some questions/comments...
Yes, there will definitely be more levels in the post-compo game. I had so many level/item ideas with these mechanics but I ran out of time :( The last level for example, was made in the last hour prior to the deadline.

There are short cut keys for each weapon, 1-7 keys.
But I intend to make some sort of easy weapon selection mechanic that stops/slows down the game while at it.

Really fun game, the character kind of freaked me out but it was cool looking! Nice graphics and audio too. Fun game overall!

pkenney 2015-04-22 02:46

Cool game! The hint to use the numbers to fire was key. Great mix between puzzle and action, and a good length - I beat it before I got discouraged with any repetition.

defectivemelon 2015-04-22 02:47

This was really cool. The different puzzles combined with doing things quickly and accurately was a lot of fun. Great job on this

ianb96 2015-04-22 02:49

This game is excellent! I loved the choice of weapons and how they were each useful in their own way. To improve on the game, I would have all weapons choices visible on the screen with their respective keys, and more levels. Well done.

Haha unconventional weapon indeed! Fun game, the level design is really inventive, great work!

ueki_shurei2006 2015-04-22 23:15

Smooth movement, nice weapons (the only weapon that's not really unconventional is the bomb), great level design (and thanks for the ability to use 1-7, though that could've been more obvious in-game). The music is a little repetitive, though. And indicating that you've won instead of looping back to the beginning would've been good. But good game!

sorlok 2015-04-25 01:10

Very awesome! I enjoyed every minute of playing; even the failures were a lot of fun, because they usually involved you throwing exactly the wrong item out to defend yourself! Great game, great execution!

onlyslightly 2015-04-26 01:02

Super fun game! I love how every item had it's own purpose and it was a ton of fun discovering the unique properties of each one. I wanted to play more!

f-wiktora 2015-04-26 01:06

Simple and fun! Very well done, create more levels! :D

Great game, fits well with the theme. Music sets a great mood. Overall really solid entry!

dixbit 2015-04-28 18:51

Nice game! A bit hard but well polished with nice animations.

jcsirron 2015-04-29 03:01

This definitely reminded me of abe's odyssey. I like it!

guigrillo13 2015-05-07 17:30

Cool!
