Well that was definitely different and unique. I love the description :D
I like the artstyle of the character but the controls feel so stiff
I don't know what I just played but I love it. Controls are difficult and there are collision issues, but the game is short enough that I powered through. The artstyle and weirdness levels are through the roof!
Super weird but definitely cool
Dude this is so insane, I love it. You know it kinda reminds me of some Jeff Koons art or something whacky. The game mechanics kinda remind me a bit of how the ninja rope works in Worms. This game also looks like a computer AI tried to design it - I think that's a good thing. Also, are those hamburgers?
I... am speechless. Very creative use of voice synthesis, though!
Very crazy experience. Great use of various pictures and textures. Feels very difficult to control though, maybe make the jump a little higher so its easier to start the grapple. Well done :)
Really strange, very good
It was really weird, but I like it! Specially voices. I think it game can get high place on sound design rating!
This is definitely unique. The use of the voice synthesizer was cool, and I sorta like the wacky graphics/sound/feel. As some others have mentioned though, it's pretty hard to control. Thanks for an interesting game.
The movement was quite hard until I got the hang of it. Maybe make the death screams a bit quicker for a game where you die so much? Weird cool game.
Love your style! The embracing of strangeness has always been something I'm drawn to, and I think you did a good job doing that! The developing story was a great motivation to keep going through the stage even as I kept dying - even if some of the deaths felt like they could've been avoided if the controls were tweaked to allow more tight and precise movement.
Graphically, I your the use of unconventional textures and animation, it really lends your game a unique visual. It seemed like the music dynamically added more layers as I got further down - great touch. Overall you did a good job on this!
Was the "you are not a human" text read in norwegian google translate btw? I thought I could hear a norwegian accent in that voice hahaha
A fever dream of the best kind! Great job :)
Everything about this is wrong. It's amazing and I can't stop playing and laughing.
Thank you for making this.
Thanks for all the nice comments everybody! I agree that the controls could probably been made a little smoother to not punish some random things. I think it even punishes lag sometimes which is really a shame. I'm considering introducing a nightmare mode, and I'll probably try to tweek the physics at the same time to make it all a bit more fair.
@jakobthequizguy Yes! Norwegian! Tried to find something sounding just the correct amount of bad when reading english. As a Swede I probably find it more fun than anyone else does though. But, oh well.
@corbeng yeah, I might even try allowing the grapple grounded and so that that makes you also jump or something. Was trying it but that introduced additional collision wankness, so I gave up. I'll give it another go!
@pookipoot Lasagna! Trivia note is that almost all graphics except the main character are generated from an image of a lasagna. And yes! Worms rope was the major inspiration gameplaywise!
When I looked at the description I thought... why you hurt me & yourself. Then I played it... and agreed. Though after my play through I found myself. Only 43 of something in 5:11 of something. It's like worms on acid. Thanks for making it, it's one I wont forget :D
** Deep breath **
Okay!
Pros:
- What in the actual **** is that? - Don't approach without a beer, two and some other injections to your body - Living in Norway as immigrant, I immediately sensed Norwegian/Finnish humor there :sweat_smile: - Experience on it's own - Funky sounds - Main character is... unique
I won't write cons. This game is 'a piece of art' and art can be very subjective to score. Would post it at Munch Museum in Oslo.
Just maybe a bit better controls.
Thank you for having nightmares today :joy:
funny,very funny game ,I like this game idea .but controller system seems not very friendly to me :smile:
do you watch twin peaks?
Ohh i love my lil abnormality!!!
PS. The actual links aren't coded properly to open when clicked. I think they just need the "http://" added
What a weird game (in a good way)! I didn't get too far, as some of the jumps were tough, but the art and sound effects were cool and unique. Nice work!
