Solid entry! My only critique is that the horse was pretty hard to control - but perhaps that was part of the unstable theme?

Hah! I enjoyed it a lot. I absolutely struggled to not fling myself into the fires, which I did over and over again, but that's a me problem. Great horse sprite too. Simple and fun!
A really fun game with interesting mechanics, nice graphics, great SFXs and a fitting music The only thing that i must point out is the capsule launching mechanic which is pretty hard to aim with
Overall an incredibly good game
Very unique game, cant say ive played anything like it. Seems very well polished and designed for such a short period of time. Good job!
Fun game to play, got some issues with the aim at the begining and sometimes during some stressful levels. Overall got fun playing it :) Good job :)
Wow! ;D Dat was not easy to control. But i had alot of fun and the sounds are super satisfying. I just LOVE it! :D Sometimes you can get your container stuck in a wall and it`s hard to get it out. But overall a nice entry to the Jam.
Overall the game was pretty good. But were the controls intensionally so much unstable?
Cute. Smooth graphics and gameplay. Well done!
Just played your game! I really liked your pixel art design and the enemy types had great animations and move cycles. All in all the sound direction was also awesome. The movement sounds from the slimes as well as the shooting enemies were top notch imo. A bug I found is that its sometimes easier to kick the fire into the pill rather than throwing the pill into the fire. Thanks for making it!
Such an interesting concept - I enjoyed it very much. At times it was very frustrating to navigate with the web-slinging, and it wasn't entirely clear when I was grabbing an item or just moving around it. But the art and audio work fantastically together - very well done!
Love the music! I really liked it - the only thing that I wish was there was a more distinct sound for when I was hit by an enemy/lost health - I didn't even notice the fire hurting me at first... :D
Well done, sticky. Great graphics and sound. I will follow the updates
Really nice game. Just the capsule aiming is a little hard. But I enjoyed a lot!
Cool little game! I really liked the control method, though it was a little tricky to get the angle I wanted at times. With a little refinement this could be amazing. Good stuff :D
Lovely game, I loved how unique the controls were. How be it difficult, your game had an interesting vibe, especially with the effects and sprites. Well done!
The horse was definitely unstable to control, but other than that the general movement and combat were quite solid, other than couple of times when the rope refused to go where I wanted it to go. The graphics were great, but the framerate seemed a bit unstable(heh), though this could be just my laptop. The music was quite endearing and the game itself was quite well put together as a whole. Good job!
Fun and exciting! I also went with mutant horses, but in a different way. The graphics and animations were wonderful, and the soundtrack and effects really cool. Aiming things was a little counter-intuitive, but I got the hang of it after a while. Those red guys are so tough. Nice work!
Kinda hard to control and the game is really loud and there are no volume controls. Overall, I liked the idea for the controls and had a lot of fun.
Awesome game!! The audio and visuals really mesh together well and the throwing mechanic is very satisfying. Grabbing and aiming is a little unstable but that could be intentional for the theme haha :)
Overall i liked the game.. only the controls are a little bit clunky in my eyes.. often jumped into enemies cause i though i would shot :D
Pure lunacy, I love it. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise - the control scheme is great and just difficult enough to be fun.
I really love the graphics and feel of the game but I had a hard time getting a grip of the controls. Some small tweaks would make this even more fast paced and fun!
Neat idea, but the controls are really difficult.
Awesome game! Really hard to aim with capsules, but fun.
Spider horse with Mission Impossible music vibes - I'm loving it lol. My 11 and 5 year old both started laughing as soon as they saw that horse fly across the screen. Sound effects are awesome. Gameplay is a little difficult (I kept getting the capsules stuck in the corner) but overall a really fun and original concept. Great job!
A very fun and solid game that can almost be put up in the store. However, the aiming feel of football is a little bad. It's easy to commit suicide in the face of red monsters. In addition, sometimes it fly directly to one side of the wall like Spiderman (causing hit the fire). don't feel the connection between the game and unstable except that the horse. But it's still a great job

Thank you so much everyone for your positive and constructive feedback. To be honest, we almost didn't publish it. We felt very embarrassed of the game; it's nothing like we intended. I just wanted to sweep it under rug and forget about it. It was very hard not to give up multiple times during the project, for everyone involved. Your words mean a lot; they really do. Thank you.
@pixelydian Our musician said he was going for a Mission Impossible mixed with Mario Kart vibe for the song. He did a great job!
