Keep Cthulhu Happy

Hey man, I enjoyed your game! I got a good chuckle out of the goat gun.

I tried a couple times but didn't win, I think adding another game mechanic to keep things interesting would be good.

I also noticed you can jump off the level and fall (seemingly) infinitely... probably want to patch that up. :P

Overall good idea. It fit the theme and with some polish would be really fun!

Looks like your itch.io link just includes the .exe so doesn't run. The dropbox link worked fine though. If it is compo you do want to include source as well.

I liked shooting the goats, though it seems like I wouldn't be able to get enough goats to keep Cthulhu "happy" long enough. I think I expected to jump but wasn't able to. You might want to include just what the controls are in the game or in the description. I liked the fx you were able to add with the goat hitting Cthulhu.

I'll think about ways to make the game more interesting for the player - sure you are sacrificing goats to Cthulhu, but does that change anything for the player? What makes the player care about sacrificing goats? Sometimes answering those kind of questions in the game, either through mechanics or story, can make the design more interesting. Keep up the good work!
