great game! i like the art style. the gameplay is rad, hurling through the world on a dolphin throwing tridents is pretty f'n awesome. i also like the world wrapping and gravity changing, that was a great idea. i would love to see more ways to combat, but i totally understand limitations this being ludum dare and all. nice job!
saw your game on my post looks really good from what i have seen

Great game! 10/10
I love the graphics/style, it's really unique and looks great. The gameplay is very satisfying when you get hang of the controls. It's not the most innovative game from a gameplay standpoint as there are a quite a few similar games on the market already, but the gravity switching does put a twist on it. The audio on the other hand was a bit lacking. The sound effects were a bit repetitive and music would have been nice. Including cpu controlled enemies was a great addition as it's hard to review a game that requires local multiplayer.
I'm really impressed. This is probably the best game i've played so far!

Very inventive little local multiplayer game - execution is top notch. A real pity that I couldn't try it against human players, but the CPU players were good enough to get the concept across.

Wow. This feels really complete both from a content POV and a polish POV - very impressive. I love the graphics and the controls that start off confusing but become rather enjoyable once mastered. The gravity shift mechanic was a nice twist to separate it from its similarities to other couch coop games. Fantastic effort.

Interesting idea with the gravity but for me it was just too hectic and I kept losing track of my character. Really nice style throughout, the title screen looked like a proper game, loved the scanlines too. Music was pretty awesome, shame there wasn't any during the gameplay. A nicely presented game but too hectic for my old eyes. Good work.

Wow, really fun! I wish I have'd played it with some friends. It reminds me to a happy version of a game of archers where also you could go throught the limits of the screen and appear on the other side, but I can't remember the name, and without the gravity spin of course! The death sounds are a bit annoying and sometimes is difficult to distinguish which is youre character, maybe they are too small or having the same shape make it more difficult. Anyway I enjoyed it a lot.
Thanks for the comments everyone! We had a lot of fun putting this silly thing together and your feedback is very much appreciated :D
Its a really good multiplayer game! Its so crazy to play ^^ Love the art style :3
Wow, your game looks very polished! Awesome artstyle, theme, humor and fun gameplay. I especially like to play with the gravity change mechanic which makes the way you move and shoot intersting. It can be a little difficult to hit someone though and the weapons end up hanging in the air sometime.
Aside from that I had a great time playing alone , and I look forward to try out the multiplayer option with members of my team!
I Played this in Stream Today at Request of the Developer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekGMbpHGKUE
This was a really great game, I'm sad I didn't have other folks to play it with, but it's on my list of games to revisit when all is said and done. Great job!

I loved this game! Took me a minute to figure out i had to have a trident in order to fire, but after that I was destroying fellow flat earthers left and right. Now if I could just find the turtles that are holding all of these worlds up up....

Beautiful graphics! It definitely felt like one of the most complete, polished games I've tried. I will say I lost track of my dolphin quite a bit as I was getting used to the controls and movement. Having the "keyboard" label show up every now and then helped me out with that, but maybe there could be another way of helping new players feel a bit more aware and in control. That's really my only suggestion and it's a pretty minor issue, especially after getting used to the controls. Great job!

Aw yes I'm in the club. I can't get to Idaho, does it count if I turn up under the wilted elm by my local chip shop?
I adore everything about this game, you guys did a fantastic job. I would have really liked a bit of music during the gameplay just to up the ante of the all the mayhem. And perhaps the weapons a smidge thicker since it took me a while to hunt them down the first time.
The movement felt super good,it was pretty satisfying flipping about in the air and grabbing a trident. Doubly so with the little water droplets and blood of my enemies flying everywhere. Really awesome game. :D
Really liked the colourful graphics and style. Gameplay was fun and addictive, movement was good but I did find it difficult to hit anything (more to do with my own skill I think). A really polished entry.
