Oh damn, that was fun sliding around on the edge of the playfield :D I really wanted to fly out of the pit and slide my way on the open fields.
Gameplay is quite catchy, sound of sliding around is funny. Apart from one annoying thing (when you lose all your velocity when touch map border) it's addictive. Got up to score of 40!
Simple and fun :) Sound might have a bit more umf to it, but nonetheless very entertaining :)
Really fun gameplay. I wish it was a bit more slippery. Funny player character.
A super simple and fun little game idea. The visuals is good, and I like the music. Overall a pretty good jam game. Well done.
I think this game shows that gameplay doesn't have to be complex in order to be fun, well done! I'm curious how you came up with the idea of a man with a shotgun in a pot, haha!
Fun little game, well done!
Really fun concept, I would prefer to have the camera zoomed out to see the whole arena though, I found myself just sitting tight after I realized that it was dangerous to slide around where I couldn't see if bombs were coming.
Isnt that the getting over it guy? I like the sound effects, game was fun for a bit, but I wish the shooting would be a bit faster and more fluid. I scored 20 points.
Nice arcade game, aiming I felt was a bit difficult and so was seeing enemies coming from below. Had fun with this, well done!
Actually, the desktop version fixes the shooting. was playing web version.
Super props for beebop jazz riffs! Lots of clicking and it'd be nice to have a "super slide" moment where you'd not have to shoot but just slide over the enemies maybe.. The sound design works really well but maybe have a stinger/sfx when you've hit 10 enemies or similar just to add some variation to the gameplay.
@digitaldude555 Was thinking of the same thing... Who gave a shotgun to the Getting Over It guy!? :gun:
This is fun! It’s pretty difficult, at least on my machine (might be a frame rate thing?)—my high score is only 11. Enjoyed it though. Well done.
Tense game, found the shooting a little frustrating though; often times what felt and looked like a good shot would just completely miss. Otherwise, pretty good!
I loved the vibey main menu, with the ice, the cauldon, the tuns, and the smoking gun. The gameplay was fun! I liked that it was a simple gameplay loop and concept, perfect for a game jam. I also found it kinda difficult to hit enemies, so maybe add a little aim assist. I'd also suggest ramping up the difficulty a bit slower... just let me get a few sweet kills at first so I can warm up to the action :) Otherwise, awesome, nice work!
Wild idea.
This would feel at home as a Mario Party minigame. Very creative take on the theme.
Would have like to see an indicator of where I was aiming past where Bennet was pointing his gun. Cute concept, would have loved to see powerups, elaboration on guns/enemies, but that's a jam! Cheers
Really fun game! The idea is great and the game plays well. I think it is sometimes hard to tell when I am defeating enemies vs getting hurt by them. I like the graphical effects as well, liquid in the cauldron being a cool detail.
It has a really nice arcadey feel too it, nice work!
