Very smooth shooter, loved the comedic bits with banana man joe jr.

I liked the bananas. The soundtrack was also top notch, thanks for sharing this on stream.

Love the movement. Superb voice acting.

This game is almost perfect, it would have been perfect if it had not ended before the pizza arrived. Love the voice acting and the movement is sooo slick

Loved the game, hated the bananas for what they did to my son!

Loved the movement, felt very quake like. Shooting also felt very satisfying. The voice acting was godlike and the humor on point. Great work!!

LOL loved this hillarious game! Really like the audio and gun feedback but with the crosshair was a bit thicker/easier to see. The enemy AI is pretty basic but does the job and the game was a good length. Great submission!

Needs option to just push bed off cliff. A+ game would become A++.

This game was cool, reminded me a bit of quake-like shooter style, I thought the audio was great and I really liked the shot particles bouncing off stuff - how did you do that?

I really love voice acting on jam games, it gives the game a really nice touch. Good work guys!

Loved the graphics and voice acting, game looked pretty and it was funny too! I couldn't tell but I don't think that you took any damage from being hit so there wasn't much challenge. For the jam length it felt pretty solid overall!

I'm VERY confused, but I'm not complaining. It was funny and I didn't have difficulty winning, which is a good thing in this case xD The voice acting is superb and the whole aesthetic rocks. Well done!

Wasn't sure what to do at first, but then I realize the controls are pretty smooth :D

Checked up on Banana Man Joe Jr and wow the voice acting is amazing! Each conversation ended with a blast of hype music and random banana enemies start to appear and it was all too funny. A bit confused when the wave ends even though I haven't shot every enemy, but I'm too excited to hear the next dialogue than to bother about the game system :laughing:

Pretty smooth controls. You should mention those on somewhere. Nice one

woo, voice acting, i... i'm really impressed

I had a lot of fun with this! It wouldn't have been nearly as entertaining if you hadn't been aussies! Few minor issues: the gun doesn't scale with the size of the screen, so it was just a picture in a small part of the screen. I didn't realise talking to the banana man over and over was how to progress the game at first. I also [got stuck](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/477349680586555392/964856702635749386/unknown.png) atop the left side of the stairs, behind the columns, once.

Anyway, it was fun to move around and build up momentum. Any faster and it would've become unwieldy. The banants were possible to fend off, but it felt like when I got hit, the wave ended, every time. I think the gun is a bit slow between shots and that's annoying.

The music is fantastic. At least one of you makes music professionally to some extent. I liked the difference between passive and battle music, but there was no interlude between them. Regardless, I did bob my head a little.

SPOILER FOR FEW-MINUTE LD GAME BELOW:

I liked the twist and the boss at the end, but I shot him off the side of the map instantly and thought I'd outwitted the devs, but then a bunch of banan'ts came around and the game faded to black. I didn't know what "leaving" meant anyway.

I had a lot of fun with this game. Fast-first-person-shooter-with-shotgun is just a great video game genre and bouncing bullets are also always great. But I wish the bananas moved a bit slower to actually make intentionally shooting them while they move feasible. And there was no losing condition right? Shooting the bananas was still a lot of fun though and the fact that there is a boss fight is cool. The voice acting is also really well done and the music is great too. Good job!
