Nice idea and execution. I especially like sprites of husband and children, first is depressing and kids look grotesque and... cute?

Cool and fun little game.
Nice little arcade game. I think the take on the theme is the most morbid I have seen so far. The raphics also fit and add to that, as well as the music. The game is quite difficult but also rewarding. Overall, a good entry!
I'm not sure she will be able to buy lots of clothes with 11€ haha! But I spent a fun time playing it, graphics are really cool!
Not bad, controls and graphics are really good. I just think it's a little bit depressing.
Ommmmg great stuff :D Simple mechanics, dark humour, a nice tension between ease of access and difficulty in not killing your own children :) Favourite so far :D
Nice Idea, cool small game. With 16 Euro and 30 or more children you have a bad life^^, solid game good job
Couldn't get this working in Safari or Chrome :(
Good job with the graphics.
Great execution! I really like the sprites and the music here. It all contributes to a really nice dark tone that the game maintains even through gameplay.
I think the game tries to not make the physics too wacky, but it inevitably is, so I think that either removing the physics or letting them be as crazy as they seem to want to be is better than treading the middle ground that it does now, especially since the frame of the game is so small.
Great work on the art and the concept execution. Congrats on the entry!
fun game...the kids are hilarious. Also feels pretty satisfying beating up that poor husband.
"Couldn't get this working in Safari or Chrome :("
Hmm, this game should work on Chrome, Safari is not supported, though.
Nice graphics and idea, i really enjoy your game.
Amazing graphics :)
Nice idea. Kids got in too early before for I was was able to shake him down for all his money.
Thanks for playing my game (Oranges In Love With My Fly).
I love the art consistency of your game :)
Maybe it says something about the society we live in that this is a silly, humorous game because it's about a wife beating her husband, but would be an edgy shock-value art piece if you'd switched the gender roles.
Overall a neat little game. The graphics are distinctive: very cute grotesque. It's maybe a bit on the easy side: I only ever killed my children when I specifically aimed to.
Damn, are there any issues you'd like to vent? d: Very well executed, slightly depressing.
Oh my god this game is insane Jani! It made me laugh but the story is ridiculous. :P
The graphics are pretty solid, as per usual.
I liked how it plays, but _man_ that's dark! A good take on the theme though, and mood is created and maintained 100%.
Nice game, very focused idea. Good variety in children hopping patterns to keep it interesting. Art style is very distinct - I won't forget that massive chin on the wife!
This game is too much fun! Love the graphics.
That was funny. The physics were great and the graphics were even better. Everyone loves whacking people.
Nice graphics. Well executed and easy-to-play :) I rated this very highly
Nice idea
A very dark and depressing game. Excellently executed. The bouncing happy children were an interesting contrast to the visibly distraught husband and the malicious wife. Great job!
I like the style of art. It would have been good if there were upgradeable weapons to get more coins per whack!
Hah, the opening made me laugh out loud, which I don't do much from playing games! Game was simple but fun with very satisfying 'hitting' feeling.
Pretty simple but fun. Music really fits the mood, like the drawings. Only thing was it was not very innovative only thing I score you low on.
This would be one of the more "uncorrecty political"* game I've ever played. And stupid. But graphics are nice and you can have a good time ot relax yourself after a hard job day. Without this game I would need to do something in Real World(tm) and pay a lot of money to a lawyer. So thank you very much Jani.
*: I don't know how to say it in English. I'm sorry.
Such an art for combo? Awesome
This made me feel like a real monster - I killed my own child.
Haha very funny ! It becomes hard very quickly !
It's a really fun game:) Poor husband got a beating for 23 dollars:P
amazing artwork. Great idea.
interesting take on the theme, kinda dark!
Interesting game, kind of strange that it actually touches on domestic violence. I think this game sends a pretty powerful message in disguise. Excellent work.
Hilarious! In a good way!
Very nice game ! I loved the graphics, they are very special :) The gameplay is simple but it works.
Nice graphics. Too bad I could not beat my own children, they are always in the way ><'
Great artwork and execution.. damn kids keep getting in the way though! :p
LOL .... Simple gameplay but that idea saves it all :D Really great entry XD I love this one, srsly :D
Nice theme use!
No a fan of the art style but gameplay is nice and its really well done.
It seems someone is bitter, haha. Seriously, nice concept and good graphics. Well done.
A nice little game. I played it too many times ;-)
Simple but addictive - imho the earnd amount of money fells too low. I'm not satisfied :-)
Anyway, well done!
Well polished, but rather repetitive and doesn't last long.
There is no time to explain start game and beat the man.
I liked the graphics style. Cartoon-like graphics looks excellent.
It's based on real story and every characters was burn in Russia
5\5
A beautiful entry! Keep up the great work
huge fan of this one. i love the art style. really. very unsettling in a good way.
on the more mechanical side, i dig the controls a lot and also the fact that the head/arm animates with it.
i think you could have benefited from more blood particles (and maybe not just rectangles) at the end. and maybe some as you go, or the husband getting more beat up as you went.
fitting audio but i guess you didnt make it since you opted out of the category.
Very Nice
haha that was great.... and sad
"fitting audio but i guess you didnt make it since you opted out of the category."
I did make it, but I didn't compose it: I used Otomate music generator and then edited the track with Audacity. But since I didn't compose it, I decided to opt it out.
Wow. Love the art, love the audio, love the humor (What makes me feel like I am a bad person).
So little game and so much fun.
Man, that's just great, I am really feel sorry for her husband, really cool game.
Disturbing but solid gameplay.
Looks great and feels finished. Nice looking artstyle.
Replayed several times.
Reminds me of Super Smash's "Grab the coins" mode.
Good job!
fun little game. very well done
Game was well made and the sprites were pretty cool too.
This game was, lets say interesting, its funny.
I'm reasonably uncomfortable with the premise of this. I did play, but I don't think I'll rate as I don't think can be objective. Good satire punches upward
XD. I finally could play it!! I didn't know the name of this game... It's funny!!
Nice painted look in graphics. Damn it takes a long time to beat a 10euro out of that man. I feel sorry for that guy. It is not easy to keep your wife satisfied.
I'ts a bit depressing and I like that.
really sinister but its really whacky (pun intended) :D
Awesome :) Fun fact I think it's the first game I see with euro coin :) Really cool game! Congrats! (my best score : 11€40).
Really Fun! Score: 7000
Great graphical style, pretty dark.
Hahahahahahahah.
So many children.
Very good game. :)
Pretty disturbing!, but the art and the best Game Over sentence ever written make this a great entry :D
Very nice graphics, but the mood... omg I feel depressed now.
Love the style
Nice graphics and gameplay!!
I'm not a fan of the subject matter. I think the game could have used a positive family example to make it clear the character you play is isn't good. Otherwise, it's just another example of domestic abuse.
Insightful game with great art - thoroughly enjoyed playing
Very good job! Game play is smooth and works well, art is well done, and it gets the theme across well. Again Good Job!
My video review: https://youtu.be/-YzHwfcJcZ8
Fun game and creative development approach!
oh my god
Interesting game! I included it in part 30 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/aghqdpQgwgA
This is a terrible game. But just because of the setting.
I loved it! Nice graphics, weird idea but not serious enough to be lame, it was fun!
