This is the kind of nonsense I look for in game jams. Great job, made me laugh. Took a few tries, but I beat it and saw the end.

This game had me laughing until my sides hurt. The sounds design was so funny and the game itself is so ridiculous you have to love it. I couldn't make it to the end as it got too difficult to continue, more check points would have been nice in the later stages. Overall though this was an amazing submission, I am really glad you guys were able to pull this together last minute and submit!

Very funny haha. The music was actually smart since it was catchy. Unfortunately it was too hard. I kept getting physically stuck and I couldn't make it to the end. I imagine Carol was humorously ugly or something. Good job though

This game was amazing. Loved the background music ahaha. Found the game pretty hard but that background music kept me going.

I love the music and humour. Artstyle is very funny too. Good job!

10/10 walk cycle, 10/10 music, 10/10 jump physics, 10/10 office, 10/10 email, 10/10 bzzzzt, 10/10 boing, 11/10 skib dab dab, 10/10 ˢᵏᶦᵈ ˢᵏᶦᵈ ˢᵏᶦᵈ, 10/10 0g physics (better than Star Citizen), 10/10 ice physics, 10/10 eyes... wait, what?

Also, i somehow managed to get in *this* situation Screenshot (22).png I dont think anyone else in this jam had THIS much fun making a game

Did i mention this is a masterpiece? No? This is a masterpiece.

My only gripe is there were some parts that combined with the hilariously jank physics were just too hard. But other than that it was really fun a great entry. A great comedy entry.

I really liked how absurd this game was, haha. I loved sending him ragdoll and trying to get over obstacles with ridiculous physics. Definitely hit the theme of unstable on the head! Good job! :)

Overall a very fun game, although I ran into some issues with the ragdoll physics not allowing me to stand up again or glitching into walls. And the intro was also a bit too long, because the camera speed wasn't quite matched with the voice over. The camera turn speed was also a bit too fast, so a slider to adjust it would have been great. The sounds however were nice and humorous and the player characters constant look of pure horror fits the theme of the game very well. The mechanic of the changing gravity is also very cool and caught me off guard. Overall a nice entry, keep making games!

This music is a MOOD. Nice work, brought joy.

She was right there. After that, I went completely nuts flying all over the place. I didn't know what to expect and died so many times i'm not sure there's even any thin legs left on my guy.

This is hilarious haha. Reminds me of like a mix between Battleblock theater/Stanley's Parable humor. I was having a ton of trouble and couldn't get past the first spike room after like 15 minutes of trying but I still enjoyed myself thoroughly xD

sam-onella 2021-10-06 07:34

Hilarious game! you really owned that scatting lmao. One lil suggestion would be perhaps to make the walls different colors so as to make the spontaneous rotation a little less disorienting. Love to see stuff like this in jams though, made my night.

chaosbrick 2021-10-06 13:30

This had me thinking "What is WRONG with you?" the entire way through. In a good way.

raphiell 2021-10-06 17:33

Very funny in the use of your voice for sound effects, I couldn't get past the lasers, but I had fun! Well done

buzz 2021-10-06 17:39

I laughed and choked everytime a new sound effect got introduced, well done!

tulkas 2021-10-07 23:11

Thats some funny stuff out there! Nice game dudes. Everything went well together. It made my day and put a smile on my face. :D

antom 2021-10-09 06:20

Hahahahaha nice sense of humor, love the storytelling part and the music!!! Really fun implementation of the theme unstable. I had a little trouble undertanding the controls

2021-10-09 21:03

Just did my complete play through in a mere one hour and 50 minutes. This game was everything I thought it'd be from these two devs, and a ton more. SO much fun. You'll have a sense of pride and accomplishment when/if you finish this game. Sound track was top notch, difficulty was retro-Japanese level but still fun af. Big congrats to you two. Can't wait to see how it ranks this year in a few categories. You guys killed it.

Very tough! High marks for humor and audio, that was great
