For some reason they keys don't work all the time, but I can see the word "attack" show up on screen, still no hits occur!

Also it was kind of difficult with a 1 hit kill lol :P

But the idea fits the theme, and character movement seemed nice and comfortable :)

too slow

I noticed a slight bug, the blue indication can sometimes remain throughout the game on all maps with the same coordinates, and we can hit when carry an object. (pardon google translate for bad english)

I really like the weight mechanic when lifting objects up! And the elevator transition was a really nice touch.

I like the art, mechanics, and music a lot. I wasn't sure if there were was really an ending though? I got to what I thought was the last level maybe but I couldn't seem to move forward?

The game is very well done! The songs are great, I loved the elevator sections haha

I managed to beat the boss and I had to hear all of his dialogue because it was so funny!!

Great game, good job to everyone!

Thanks for the feedback, everyone! We've made some minor tweaks in the post-jam version that really improve gameplay (e.g. makes the combat actually playable), but don't rate if you haven't played the original. Or don't. I'm not your mom.

@ryuu Glad at least one person figured out the boss level! <3

I like you character designs.

Fun, works well, has a retro 70s aesthetic and a great sense of humor!

Characters are in a super fun style! I would have loved to see them textured. Mechanics are relatively smooth. Great work over all.

It looks like, at least for the original jam version, the game was not exported as 16:9 resolution so the bottom part get cut off and I I could not read all the controllers. It would be nice to list them here on your page for reference in case others encounter this problem. It looks like also all I was able to do was grab/throw and nothing else was working for me :( I could not "attack" or "chance" so I was not able to get beyond the first stage.
