This seems like fun!
Very cool!
i liked flipping off the mosquito
Fun mosquito model lmao :) We students too, rate our game comrade!
The game was so cool!
Enemy models were great, emoting at everything was incredible! I found hitboxes to be a bit hit-and-miss, but otherwise a very cool entry!
very epic
The game is humorous. The controls are quite difficult, it would be great to add gameplay value to the taunt, the camera rotates strangely
I liked the dynamics. Even remembered Deep Rock Galactic. But there is a problem with the animation of hands and camera placement. When moving, almost the entire view is blocked.
It is also sad that the animations of enemies upon death are not turned off. It is not immediately clear whether they are alive or not.
Graphic are good, nice audio as well, gameplay is fun and well it's the mosquitos best friend that hits me
good stuff, but I got very motion sick running it
Fun game, everything would be very good, but the camera sensitivity is too high. Otherwise, great job!
This game was funnyhaha, I think I wish the fov was a bit wider because with some of the items it was hard to see, but I loved the bugs and I loved squishin em >=) I thought it was hilarious when my weapon broke and all i could do was give the bugs the middle finger.
I really wish the field of view was set to like 90 or just a little less aggressive in addition to a less sensitive mouse motion. Picking up objects and just throwing them around haphazardly was definitely fun. The title of the game reminded me of SpongeBob XD. The ability to emote in a game like this is so silly, it's awesome.

Love this game. great humour, music and sound effects. graphics are good. Only issues i had was the hitbox of the creatures sometiems felt a bit off and the flies would still flap their wings after they were dead? Other than that was really fun!
I like the humor of the game, especially how you can default to flipping off the enemies if you don't have a weapon. The camera did make me a bit sick, though. The easiest weapon for me to use was the hammer. I'm not sure if I did anything wrong, but I couldn't figure out the other weapons.
It doesn't look like a LD game! Really well taylored :)
game is pretty awesome, good job!
this game manages to capture the "angry dwarf in a cave" feel pretty well, the mouse sensitivity is way too high though, and the items you pick up sometimes get in the way of the camera a bit too much.
The music and sound effects totally sell the absurdity! Agreed on the camera sensitivity/FOV tho—maybe a slider to tame the spinny chaos? Also, dead flies doing jazz hands with their wings was weirdly hilarious. Hammer gang rise up! Solid gem for a LD jam!
After tweaking with mouse settings a bit, the game conveys the "angry dwarf" energy quite well, and without the tweaks I guess it becomes the "angry drunk dwarf" aesthetic. And visual style reminded me that of Deep Rock Galactic, so an obligatory Rock and Stone!
It's fun, good job :)
funny idea... good job
Very much needs a look speed option, but cool idea and great visuals!
It's a pity there is no web version. I thought for a long time whether to download it or not. But I don't regret downloading it, very solid quality for a jam. The only thing I would do is move the camera speed settings to a place accessible to the player. But nevertheless, it's great!
🦟🦟**DUDE, I CAN FLIP OFF THE BUGS JUST LIKE I DO TO MY NEIGHBOURS IN REAL LIFE!!!!!! CRACKED GAMEPLAY**🦟🦟

Really fun and funny. Enjoyed it
Hilarious concept and the animations cracked me up 😂 Camera could use some tweaking, but flipping off bugs as a last resort is peak gameplay.
Love the chaotic energy. Throwing the weapons is awesome and the way they absolutely fling the enemies across the room is hilarious. The emotes are funny too - never seen those in a jam game before.
The gameplay has a fun, fast pace that I like. Finding new weapons encourages moving around the space and weaving around enemies. I found myself using melee attacks a lot more than throwing, though, which is a shame because I like the dynamism throwing mechanic. Throwing is tricky to aim and immediately discards your weapon, and since most enemies die in a couple melee hits anyway I found myself defaulting to that.
I agree with others that the camera was a bit too sensitive. On top of that, Unreal game jam games never run well on my laptop and by default have a lot of motion blur, which added to the disorienting feeling. I know the lag isn't your fault, but some camera tweaks could help this out a lot.
Good work overall!
Funny, but i'd like to put weapons without turning down camera so strong and it'd cool if u could to kill several enemies my throwing a weapon. Nice job! P.S. forgot to say, you need to add mouse sensitivity settings!
Hahah this was really fun! I loved the emoting and heaps of weapons I could throw around. I think I need a slightly wider FOV and maybe some health pick-up chance after killing a bug (I still won by throwing weapons/cheesing), but otherwise a fantastic entry, well done!
