fun little game, nice controls and difficulty.
interesting game mechanic, a bit confusing to understand at first but nothing too difficult, also the dark humor added that extra touch
funny funny game, got a bit repetitive after a while but the comments by the fan boys were hilarious!
quite a challenging platformer, the double jump also seemed to not work some times, however it was fun at some parts :)
fits with the theme well enough, and as the previous comments stated, it is a bit easy with just throwing out the worst insult, not a terrible idea though and kind of funny :)
A bit difficult to get into and very confusing at first for what to do, was not sure at fist when the next mission started as there was no ending screen for each mission, basically a general lack of direction for the player. Also the difficulty curve was a bit steep once the turrets were introduced, overall though it was quite fun flying through all of the mountains dodging and blowing stuff up :)
as you said it feels rushed, looks like it has some potential though :).
difficult game, especially from as far as I could tell you have to restart the game if you die. also I think that your health bar regenerated too slowly. It seemed like a nicely put together platformer though and I did enjoy the anti gravity aspect to the game
I have to agree with all of your comments the game was too dark and was not remedied by the light that follows you around. also the tutorial levels could have been more clear. For anyone else that is stuck, pressing E activates the switch only when the light is near the switch(it turns green) and pressing Q locks the position of the light. the light towers are activated when the light source is next to them.
overall, this was a fun little cute game, I liked it. the sounds the asteroids made was a nice little touch as well :) good job!
woo, fast paced game, seemed like it got too difficult too fast :/ still though, really fun, and the graphics were impressive. good job :D
Interesting Idea, probably needed a bit more polish but it could go somewhere, my fingers got tired after a bit of mashing the buttons :p
Cool stuff, a bit like my game :p a bit confusing to figure out the goal of it, but it certainly had interesting parts, kind of wish there were more things to put out though. overall though, neat idea :D
extremely difficult game, wow, I could barely get anywhere, mainly because of the controls and continually having to restart. other than that, the graphics were great and the music was catchy :)
overall, a very nice looking game, I especially enjoyed the lighting effects throughout the level. The only qualm I have with it is the level design, sometimes there were spikeys that I could not see because it was too dark. other than that though, its a nice and fun to play platformer, good job!
well I don't know if I would call it a game, but it was an enjoyable experience, not too sure what to make of it all though :p
I was a bit confused on how to get a score, but even after I figured it out it seemed strange. gameplay probably would be better with a few tweaks, other than that though, the graphics have a very nice hand drawn style and was pleasant to look at. the movement system with the mouse was also nicely done and had a very flowy like feel, good job :)
hehe, a very shortish game, looked brilliant, but short. everything seemed to flow nicely together, and by that I mean the movement system, and collision system, still though there was not much gameplay. considering you finished this in 5 hours, I would call it an accomplishment
I thought this a fun little game, cool stuff. controls were a bit off but not bad. I would probably say that the music could have been improved,(just not a big fan of midi), and the graphics could have been tweaked, but overall cool stuff.
overall, a really cool game with an interesting mechanic, some problems with some of the levels, and it became frustrating at some points as well. overall though, it was pretty awesome :D
nice platformer :) I got 91% of all of the little gems. the platforming controls felt nice, although there were one or two difficult spots. overall its was very enjoyable.
well that certainly was a fun little game :p A bit hard to control, but fun none the less.
wow, that was a good looking game! humor was great, and the platforming was fun, best game I've played so far. my only problem was that sometimes the camera would get annoying and block my view, moving it a bit higher would solve that problem. other than that, great game! 5/5 :D
I had to play the post compo version because the pre one wouldn't run. Anyway, I thought the game was good, the controls were nice and the difficulty curve was balanced. nothing too spectacular audio wise but still enjoyable :) goodjob!
it seemed hard, (were we supposed to get though those little gaps somehow), I couldn't get very far, but, it looked to be like a nice platformer. a few problems with it but not terrible
Haha, this is funny. That pig is hilarious. Great job!
Fun game! I love the aesthetic, and the sound effects are very satisfying. One of my favorites, for sure!
Interesting concept, very very dark, perhaps the flashlight could be a bit wider. Great animations though!
The controls were a little bit tricky, to be honest, but it is the foundation of a great game! I like the aesthetic, and the gameplay is fun!
I have to say, I absolutely love the particle effects you utilized in this game. The aesthetic is very well-made, and the controls are tight. You did a great job, and I can see this game being expanded upon in the future!
Great audio, nice aesthetics, looks cool!
A fun little game, reminds me of missile command.
That was funny! The voices were strange at first, but I really got into it, and it was a great indicator for how many lives you have left. Clever concept, fun!
Interesting art style, to say the least. I'd love to have more things to do, but the stuff that you can do already is surprisingly fun!
I definitely like the look of the game, and it feels very retro. Overall, it was a job well done!
That was fun! The starting screens were amazing, I have to say, and the character looked funny. I had a bit of an issue predicting the hit detection, but everything else was pretty great!
I liked the difficulty added by the sonar mechanic, and the ramping difficulty, very fun!
Pretty good game! The lack of music seems a bit odd, but it's challenging and made me want to keep going!
A bit confusing at first, but I can see that it can get pretty fun over time. Well done game!
Interesting concept,a bit slow at first, although good job on the graphics.
Clever idea for a puzzle game! Love the aesthetic, and I can see myself playing this over and over to get better!
Hmmm, it seems like there are a few shape combinations that can trap you completely. I think you can get stuck. Otherwise, great sound effects, fun game! Touch controls would be awesome, I bet!
Fun game! I really enjoy the graphics, and whacking the enemies to death is very satisfying. I do wish there was some music, but overall, really well done!!
Very nice and simple. The art is good, and the last part was a surprise! Well done!
You had a great idea with the ability to mute the audio, since it hurt my ears at some point. Solid gameplay, though. Well done!
Very trippy, I have to say. Interesting concept, for sure!
Hmmm, it seems I get stuck every so often, but the aesthetics look nice and the concept is sound!
The mouse models are really cool, though the physics seems a bit weird. Overall a great submission, though~!
Wind Waker inspired for sure. I love the aesthetic, and the feeling of moving around felt nice!
Fun game! Nice, simple concept of juggling the repairs and the piloting. The graphics look nice, too. Well done!
Very nice animations, though there was a bit of an issue with the instructions page. I love that it's procedurally generated (which can be tough to implement), and the atmosphere is great. Well done!
Interesting game, I have to say! It definitely takes a bit to get used to, but the concept seems sound, and the look of the game seems interesting.
Neat game! Very simple, I like the shell animation, and it was fun. Great idea, guys!
You have some nifty looking models, though I concur with the other comments. Doesn't really have much gameplay, but I don't think that's what you were going for. Interesting stuff!
That horse looks hilarious! There isn't really any gameplay of course, but that horse...haha!
Very fun and fast little game, The tnt and worms were a welcome addition.
Haha, clever game idea! I still haven't been able to figure out who the robot is, but I'm definitely going to keep trying!
Missile command clone, pretty well done! I like the sound effects, and the flashy graphics, as well as the interesting paths the missiles take.
Great package of a game! The monster art is beautiful, and I like how everything works. Good job!
Box!! Definitely inspired by the intentionally quirky Goat Simulator or Surgeon Simulator.
Interesting concept, I really thought the multiple shooting points was a very cool idea, although I didn't seem to encounter any aliens, keep up the good work!
Good game! I like the art, and how the game plays. Great concept and enjoyable!
GREAT game! Awesome package of graphics and good controls, and fun audio. I love it!
I really enjoyed the stylized graphics and aesthetics of your game, with some pretty great humor as well!
Fun game! I love the graphics, and the utilization of the 4 elements. You did a great job, though I do agree with a lot of people's comments about the plateauing difficulty.
Looks like a great start to something bigger. Keep it up!
Haha, very simple, and it could ramp up a bit faster. Cool concept, though!
