10/10 Savage esthetic!! The shoot timer is always in time with the music, cant be a coincidence!!

Really liked your audio :)

Nice challenge! Tricky but feels good to play.

I like how the shooting works with parabolic shots, so it takes a bit of mastery to actually be able to kill enemies. The music is nice and I liked the sound effects as well. Well done! :)

Heyyy we're "Chuck" buddies this jam :)

I loved the beat and the goofy sound effects. The damage zoom/blur effect is nicely polished too! One issue I had was the boss somehow clipped into the floor, so I had to restart.

Love the sound effects! The controls are good and I like that the bullets are in projectile motion! Also, kudos to you for building the game using PixiJS!

I got a kick out of this game! I liked that if you turned the opposite direction you could shoot backwards! I just thought that was so funny :smile:

@shawn-moore Huh, I think I saw the boss clip into the floor once during testing, and I had thought I had fixed it. Guess I must have missed it. Thanks for the report!

@AndyKSWong Thanks it was my first time using PixiJS for anything other than tutorials. Id did slow me down a bit but I learned a lot!

played a few rounds, love how the bullets arch and you can plan your shots, very good game.

Fun little platformer! The music was a perfect fit. Couple things, the first time I went through, I killed everything and died to the boss. Second time, I just jumped through the level without stopping. Seemed to be a more effective strategy :) I enjoyed this quite a bit, keep up the good work!

The graphics are cool but the colors might be a bit too flashy. Controls are a bit imprecise but the level design is cool and the balistic on the gun spices up the fights. Well done!

Loved the sound effects and music. Well done!

Nice job getting this done for the compo! Loved the charm of the "mouth sounds" for the SFX haha they were great. Also Malpractice Mole is pretty hilarious too. Great submission!

Neat little platformer/shooter.

Interesting platformer. A suggestion would be to have the camera not move so erratically - stay more centered on the player. Also, the movement was pretty slippery. Perhaps a tighter control system? Good luck for the jam!

it is most certainly a decent... thingy.

Cool game! Very complete, even with a boss fight and a nice victory screen!

Random thoughts:

* Is Chuck Challenger an Oompa Loompa? * Nice character design! (Not much common to see non-generic characters in a compo game that is not story-centered!) * Music is good, sound effects worked well enough (sorta funny). * Boss battle: I lost a couple of times until I (by luck) ended up in a position in which apparently _Malpractice Mole_ would never hit me. * No bugs while I was playing.

Nice game all-in-all! Congrats!

I like the boss fight! The character designs are fun, and I really like the voice acted sound effects! Ha! Great work.
