Great Job, I love the graphism with the minimalist color palette, it gives a nice mood to the game! The game feel is smooth and you really feel the heat when the train goes by with the screenshake and all, well done. Although was a bit frustrated not to have a win screen after I worked for my 1000 points 😄 Another comment: It felt like the "shout" bonus better use was to spam it which makes it not that funny to use.
Really fun game with spot on sound design! One of the better once I've played despite it's simplicity. A good example of a simple idea that's really well executed without trying to be too much. Very well done!

Very fun! I love the overall aesthetic and think your art is very cohesive. Sound design is also a highlight, I love the shouting sound effect :)
The train movement is also very satisfying and the power ups are nice. Great job!

Very cool game!
I found the power-ups to be a bit too powerful. In a first attempt, I didn 't use them and I found the game a bit more enjoyable. Okay, a rabbit died once in a while, but it was much more "on the edge".
Another note is that I didn't understand how to "win" the game. I think the intro mentions something about 1000 points, but I got higher than that and nothing happened. In the end I just let all rabbits go on the tracks and lost everything at once :D
I loved the visuals of your game, they are beautiful in their simplicity! Minimalistic usage of colors is a awesome way to keep the focus on the objective. The animation of the rabbit is perfect.
Good job!
Played this for quite a while, I couldn't really put it down 😅 awesome work with the pixel art and the sound design; gameplay loop was simple but fun too! Nice job! :smile:

Love the concept, It already exist in a lot of game like zelda,red dead.. they are boring in it ! But you succeed to make it really fun with nice graphics and sound. Good job !

That was so much fun ! Cool concept and cool art, and the option to turn off the blood is a nice thought :ok_hand:
My only nitpick would be that it does get a bit too easy once the shout and boots powerups have been bought, but other than that it was a very enjoyable game :smile:

The game is really fun and well made ! I just found that is was funnier and easier to control to do the opposite ! Even if I feel bad for rabbits now !

Lovely game! Great audio, graphics is clean and to the point. It's also quite hectic, which I like. Well done!
It was a lot of fun! Got kind of a dystopian feel with the speaker and the colors. Really like the running animation with just a few pixels of change between the frames but still completely sells it! One thing I missed is to have some background music or more ambient sounds.

@rolly Thanks for pointing out the too much powerful abilities, I actually inverted the values of the basic shout and the shout mine which is the last ability :D Aced it ! At least it's fixed now

Wow, my first impression was how much I liked the pixel art and butter smooth movement. I think you managed to find a nice take on the theme and built around it very well. Do you have a background in art/deisgn? You really nailed the colour palette. Nice job :)
I thought the prices for abilities were way too much, only ever saved up for one of them, but the game felt nice to play. Unfortunately I had a lot of fun when the rabbits got squished. The train effects, the sounds effects, it was just the more satisfying option than saving them...

Love the graphics atmosphere and mood! The sfx for the intro talking were some of the best ive seen this jam. Really great concept, fun game! Very hard though

@busisen I'm actually a vfx artist in CGI, that may help a bit :) that's me cheating eheh
@bosco thanks ! glad you like the mumbling sound, it's actually me doing weird noise into my phone recorder !
So freaking cool that you've done that on compo !
Either I'm doing something wrong or those rabbits are smarter than me! Must try again... Great idea, nicely implemented!
Art style is amazing good job! I really like the idea and the mechanics of the game.
Funny little game, loved how a few pixels of animation still conveyed quite a bit, and i found the death screen attitude quite funny - just get another guy i guess :))
Good job, great text on start) Fun to play. Like it!

That was really FUN to play. Solid 5 stars on fun, theme and humor. I also love the art, the sounds... One of my favorites so far
Very cool game! clean implementation of your concept with a simple but nice looking pixel style.

I think I'm just bad, but even with the shout, I couldn't do much ... so much blood ... Really cool though, I loved the idea.
Really cool idea, took me a bit to figure out I could by the abilities at the sign though. The color palette and art style work really well with it. Sound design is really solid too; makes it quite clear when a train is coming.

Very unique and clever idea, and it's fun and quite addictive too! Well done!
Audio is great in this game! The graphics are very simple but pleasant. I am quite bad at chasing rabbits - they had to hire many new guys after the first :grin:, but I had fun with it. Additional abilities definitely help keep player interest.
One thing that is not really a bug, but just a bit of inconvenience. On Itch pressing ESC exits the full screen. So, if you want to stop interacting with the sign, you first exit out of full screen mode and only then you can exit the sign menu.

@fabula-rasa oooh didn't catch that one, one more thing for the next time checklist thanks for pointing that out, and of course thanks a lot for playing ! Glad you had a good time
Very interesting game! the tiny pixel art worked for the style really well. The sound effects were nice.
I would definitely play a game like this!
