Your about section made me laugh :laughing: 10/10 agree with what Robert ten Brink said.
MY SWEET LOVEMAKING MACHINE OF A CHILD needs to see a surgeon, his poor legs.
Dialogue is great & full points for humor. One small gripe is it's easy to accidentally click on an upgrade, which I did several times. I hope Hermann gets recognition for his troubles.
Very funny artstyle/player controller. Did not expect a spooky twist on this game. Bats are hard to hit lol. Nice music and sound effects.
I love blasting away at the foul creatures that lurk in the dark (especially the bats!). The music is very fitting and thematic for the fast-paced, shooting-lasers-everywhere playstyle. Sometimes the menu opens while you're still firing and you purchase something random. I think there needs to be a short delay there. Personally I would have liked a more "pew" instead of "beep" for the scanner, but the sound is realistic. Great Game!
This was so much fun! Great sense of humor!
Interesting graphics
Really interesting game! Like the art style.
Not half bad- there's not a lot to it, but the balance job was pretty tight. My first run I got screwed because I just ran past a lot of the bats, which meant they were still there when I had to run like hell away from the bosses, so there's a little thought you have to put into it. One issue was, like poboy said, it's easy to accidentally click on an upgrade when you level up, since the screen comes up instantly while you're probably in the middle of spamming click on a bunch of enemies.
Oh, this was awesome! Art, music, idea, dat moving animation...very fun game!
Verily, mine eyes have witnessed a most amusing game! Though the bats did vex me sorely, striking me down a fair few times, until I did discover the rapid fire gun technique, which should surely earn me the employee of the month award. The sounds, and the music in particular, were most excellent, and the graphics as well.
omg those bats! it felt a little unfair how they'd all fly in at once after a cut scene... looks and sounds amazing top work!
Absolutely hilarious, best game I've played so far in this jam. I was laughing the whole time, well done!
Very funny story. I loved the ending, but I was hoping that meant I got to play a second level and it just ended but I guess wanting another level is a good thing, right? I would like to be able to skip cutscenes quicker as I died a couple times and waiting was a pain.
Nice! The derpy legs and the humor in general were hilarious. Loved that aspect, and the overall vibe. I think the actual gameplay left a bit to be desired for me – it seemed either very easy (kill stuff off screen) or I would suddenly be swarmed by bats and die. I wasn't sure what triggered which, but the bats for sure were tough to deal with once there were one or two. The moment I started getting hit that was it.
Hilarious game!
Your game is absolutely hilarious :smile: !
The music is pleasant and the graphics are great. The movement of the legs and the arms of the player made me laugh a lot haha.
The only problem was that your game don't support 1366x768 resolution and I can't read the dialogues. It's a shame, cause judging by the comments, they must have been pretty funny.
Overall, a nice entry! Good job!
@joao-marcello that's weird, the windows build had some UI issues that force it to only be able to play 1920x1080, but in the web build that's fixed, 1366x768 runs fine on my computer
Nice gameplay and works well, but lacks feedback on actions
@moritz-b @poboy @benedict-ide Thanks for the feedback! I've added a html version that has a little delay before you can buy upgrades, hopefully that will fix the accidental upgrades
Omg, that's so good!
Felt kinda strange the lasers fall for gravity, but a fun game to play! Great job!
really good and fun entry for the jam! great job!
Such an immersive pun! Cool char with charming face and animation. All fives! Loved the humor, man.
This was hilarious. Loved the story and the humor. Was a bit too hard though :(
Wow. Just wow. Did expect nothing. Got everything. The art is unique in that I never seen a game like that before. Hitboxes might be a bit strange sometime. But that is only so I can say something to improve :D Ah no. The title screen clearly shows a continuous laser. I wasnt infinite fire rate and not just small laser blips (and why are they affected by gravity??). Maybe I should have focused my level ups on fire rate. why didn't I do that... ok time to try one more time
absolutely hilarious, and I really liked the music!
One of the best entries I've come across thus far! Everything about this game is charming. From the movement of the character, the scanning of the scanner, to the exquisite narrative it is entertaining throughout. The gameplay is decently engaging, I like the unique upgrades. Awesome game.
I... am not quite sure what I just played :sweat_smile:
10/10. fantastic. best game in the jam. why the hell are the lasers physics enabled
:bat:
Loved the art and music. This kind of quirky stuff is great to me, and it's well executed. A side-scrolling run & gun is a simple concept, so the feel is everything, and this game sells it well with the atmosphere. Still, there wasn't much depth to the strategy with there being no platforming and limited need for dodging, but overall it's a great game.
wow, such a funny game, I really like graphics and audio, good job!
This is actually hilarious! Thank you for this.
I got myself laughing hard at this
the sound is really good but seems to be extra low for some reason (compared to others games I played)
neat cutscenes
the zoombies are really really hard to go through
oh man this IS hilarious

What a great game, the art was perfect for it and the text of the god makes it so hilarious, had a great time with it. Well done and keep it going
This game is stupid and I love it.
Criticism, I was spamming clicking the mouse because I didn't realize I only needed to hold it and skipped like 3 level ups because of that.
I really loved the writing, art style and audio. the guy's physics-based animations as his legs dragged along are hilarious. I agree with @ciderpunk about the post-cutscene bat onslaught feeling unfair.
Well this was different! Amazing art! Pretty random! Nice job :D
