Was a decent game. SFX were obviously just Roblox. And for some reason I could kind of move with WASD but not really. Was fine when I switched to arrow keys though. Good effort!

would you please add the directional arrows as an option for movement * edit

I replayed it now with the directional keys and i found it quite funny, abit clunky movement but its alright. i enjoyed playing this made me laugh :)

Loads of fun, great game!

Good gameplay, but Its necessary to add win and lose scenarios

Hey, for my keyboard layout, WASD didn't work. The gameplay is somewhat fun but a bit confusion, and I didn't really get the point of the game. Cool though

Sort of depressing, sort of fun. I wasn't losing for some reason. Also, every once in a while I would throw something?

Thanks for your reviews and I hope you had fun while playing our game ! I took the sounds of death on Youtube, I didn't know it was from Roblox. Never played it. ^^

There might be some troubles with the WASD because we created the game in azerty (baguette) but the directional arrows should be working. Sorry for this issue. ^^"

What do you mean by it's necessary to add lose scenarios ? There is one actually. The game is kind of a survival game so there is no win scenario.

I like how hectic it gets later on

Quite a funny game with a nice simple art style. Nice Job!

At first I was not sure who is meant to be punched and who isn't. I thought everybody needed punching at first, then some grandmas came through and it seemed to be fine. I felt like I was not informed enough to understand what I need to do. Just experimenting a bit I noticed the grandmas are meant to go through, but the kids in hoodies and hipsters aren't.

Of course, *then* I decided to read the intro text (which falls off-screen for me on the HTML5 build - I had to go full screen to see it). Now I understand. I think. I lost two hearts but only grandmas came through.

The art is clear, but I would have liked clearer visual clues on who to punch. Additionally, there's inconsistent scaling, which is a pet peeve of mine. Blown-up pixelart hearts at the top, fine resolution sprites elsewhere.

You used audio from other sources and so you should have opted out of the Audio category. For that I can only score low I am afraid.

All in all, I would advise considering how and what you communicate to the player. If you can avoid explaining through pre-game text, do so.

All that said, I did have some fun, but I wish there was more to it.
