This one really made me giggle, no explanation and BOOM you're a chain saw and you're shredding everything up to an awesome soundtrack.

This is an awesome little game for a jam! Congrats and well done for learning along the way keep it up :)

Oh man - "ended up losing a ton of time figuring out how RigidBody works" - My thoughts exactly. It was also my first foray into learning how Godot implemented Ridigbody2D physics.

Don't be too hard on yourself, though! Gamejams are all about learning. This is only my second jam, and my skills with Godot are way more than they would be with any tutorial series. I am sure you can resonate with that.

Either way, regarding the game, it feels great! It's just dumb fun. The animations, the screen shake, and just jumping around is a fun little sandbox for a few minutes. It wouldn't take much to develop this into something more game-like, and you've already made a start!

Such a hilarious game and fantastic concept - I loved being a chainsaw, just destroying everything I touch. The movement didn't feel completely smooth or manageable, and I wanted more direction and objectives, but it's still a blast to play.
