Really solid entry. Love the idea of hovering the two buttons to “awkwardly” control missiles :) Good job!

This was quite nice, loved the slow motion mechanic. Great job!

cool idea of "pushing" buttons with the mouse!. great graphics, animations and audio, good entry!.

Hilarious! Loved it!

Really clever game idea. with a nice about of polish to it all. I wish that the missile was somewhat affected by gravity right now because it doesn't and that feels weird.

Nice done ! I Love that controls. Graphics are good too!

Great game great concept I found the controls a little awkward

This game is appropriately named, for sure. It was so fun, and so awkward using only my two buttons to save the land from a firey bomb death. Love the music, and it fit the theme well. Awesome job.

I genuinely enjoyed this one! Its an interesting take on the two button controls. The animation and sound are really nice and compliment the game well! Solid entry! Good job!

It is definitely awkward. Having keyboard controls will change this game completely. Nicely done!

Ha Ha Ha.
That is all I can say.


Well, OK, I say that too : good job ! :D

Solid game!
Controls are really hard to master, but I like the idea, really fit the theme.
Good graphics and music.

Really nice and solid design. It reminds me of asteroid controls. A very good job. :)

Wow this game is very polish! Arts are very good and the idea is very well executed! Well done!

elizeu-nrj 2015-12-18 02:22

very cool!

Very polished game, music fits perfectly, challenge is awkward enough. Good use of two button theme.Fan of nice clean pixel art. Overall loved it.

The mechanic of slowing down time and music when the bomb crossed the line, beautifully done.

excellent entry, very addicting, i really enjoy this game, congrats man! good job =D

Wow, I made it to 19 before things got crazy. Really tight entry, nice polish.

Neat game idea with hilariously frustrating controls. I like the take on the theme and all the simple, yet effective polish details.

ludic 2015-12-18 06:15

i agree, its awkward, but is funy. the bomb is a good design choice. only issue is tha the buttons have a small area to activate the missile using the mouse

tuism 2015-12-18 07:28

The idea is there, and I get that using the mouse adds difficulty, but I'm not a fan of games that make controls difficult for the sake of padding the challenge. The challenge, to me, should be about mastering the controls to overcome the game, not to make sure it's hard to control for the game to be a challenge.

The presentation is top notch. You even managed a tutorial which is rare in jam games. Kudos for that.

colinator27 2015-12-18 20:35

The game is awesome; even the strange physics were fun to play with!

thebrickanator 2015-12-20 06:48

Really cool :) I loved the gameplay mechanic and the game itself was very polished.

Great game. The graphics perfectly fit the theme of the entry. The awkward controls made more awkward by using the mouse to hover over was hilarious and put a comical spin on the two button game theme. The best part is the slowdown letting you know you're about to die!

With the tutorial I seemed complex, but then I found the gameplay fun and addictive. Good job!
