Loved the variation of the different characters :)

Hand shake game? Interesting. Controls feel a bit sluggish and I didn't realize I had to move forward after the tutorial because the projectiles were moving toward me.

Wow. Really clever game! I enjoyed it.

hahaha! love it! made me think about my neighbor who have a "too soft" hand shake. I'll give him your game!

This was surprisingly fun for such a simple game! My only complaint was that some levels were a bit easy. Perhaps some auto scrolling would have made it a bit harder?

Graphics were simple but got the job done. Audio was excellent!

Use of the theme(s) didn't really seem to be there, but I did like the tongue-in-cheek business commentary.

Well done!

Cheers on the humor!

A few impressions:

That first (extending) moment as your reach further and further across the table is great.

Took me a minute to realize that only your hand is vulnerable, but the formation of the levels made that clear pretty quickly.

Mr. Business is a very abrupt difficulty spike, felt a tad cruel. Eventually did shake his hand, though.

Loved the "Hi!" from the other guy when contacting wrong hand ^^

Great theme, (Spoiler Alert) the firmness meter made me laugh

Ha! That was a lot of fun. I liked the variety of different obstacles while going in for contact.

Pretty good. Felt like it needed a bit more though, kinda felt a bit plain at times, and also maybe a safe zone at the ending, cause I would get to the hand and as I go to touch it a drop or such would fall right through it. Good game though :D

Bwaaaaaa ha ha ha :D

Almost the perfect handshake simulator. My only advice would be to add a few frames of invincibility after getting hit; I found it annoying to be killed from 2 health by a well-timed pair of obstacles.

Thanks for the game!

silly, fun, awesome. i like the variety between each character, and the ridiculous premise is just enjoyable.

LOLed as soon as I read the title.

Thought it was a innovative game.

Music matched the style.

Game overall was really good.

This game really shows how the business world really works... :P

Oh forgot to add, option to use WASD would have been really good addition.
