Fun little adventure. Like the opening cinematic and the sounds in particular. Those damn spiders kicked my ass first game so I got some revenge once I got a bat hahha. Great Job, see you next jam :)

Nice Entry! managed to beat the game. Fits the theme very well!

Ray gun for the win! The ufo never saw that one coming :) The opening sequence was very nice for a ludum dare game! The spiders also got me in the beginning but I just jumped over them instead of beating em.

Man, those spiders really hate me.

Nice work with the intro sequence and the point and click interface mixed with a basic action-platformer scheme. Good entry!

Wow, I'm terrible at this game! I got murdered by spiders like 5 times before I realized I could just jump over them. Maybe a reminder of controls (or writing them on the LD/itch pages) would be helpful. I like the premise a lot, and managing your inventory to change your speed is an effective game mechanic.

I can't get past the first zombie... he seems to destroy me before I can even figure out if I'm attacking and if I'm doing any damage... and I don't want to deal with the spiders one more time, so I guess that's as far as I get ^_^.

I enjoyed the MS Paint style graphics. Sounds were pretty good =).

I enjoyed this game. The opening sequence is great and made me laugh. :) The spiders were my bane tho. Having to deal with such difficult enemies right at the start is a bit frustrating. The first few times I tried beating them with the stick but that didn't seem to do any damage, so I just ended up avoiding.

It's not every day I see a Ludum Dare entry with an opening cutscene. Really enjoyed that you set your game apart from the opening. Gameplay was a bit rough around the edges and I had a hard time figuring out what to do. I might give it another go later and see if things clear up for me.

Good job with the opening scene! Unfortunately the game is cropped on itch.io so I was not completely sure what is going on and died a few times before giving up.

Fun game! I found the slowing mechanics a bit punishing though.

I liked the countdown thing at the end. To gain more speed I dropped the keys, unfortunately I seemed to need them to get out out of the cave, so I died :( But it was fun!

Fun to play, quite immersive despite the gamemaker vibes :) My only frustration was that the boxes in the bungalow could get in the way, but that was probably a feature (to force the player to drop items). Good job!

Cool game, I can see the graphics are handmade and I liked the intro :)
