The visual style is simple, but VERY well-conceived and enjoyable to look at! The sound effects I did not care for. I don't mind the game not having music, but I feel like the sounds could have been better-chosen. Mechanically, it's solid, though I feel the take-three-hits dudes show up too fast and take over the screen. I would suggest either making the bomb recharge faster, or making it able to hurt more than one enemy at once, so it's not as much of an annoyance to handle those guys. They're not that HARD, but if you want to kill a group of three you have to lead them around in a circle while waiting for your can to recharge and that's just not fun. Overall though, good job, and I appreciate the positive theme."},{"author_name":"Xanjos","author_uid":"21201","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 6:02pm","epoch":1429639020,"text":"Pretty simple but it's very well done and nicely polished (although controls are slightly awkward if you use WASD).

The main problem I have is that the player has to get on top of enemies to hug them, but for some of them, contact also hurts you.  It was confusing since the enemies chasing me made me feel like I was supposed to run away, but the mechanics told me I was supposed to go touch them.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It would've also helped a lot to have some sort of meter representing the cooldown on your other attacks.  The can seems to be the best way to deal with the angry guys, but it takes a long time to charge and I really have no idea when I'll get another one.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The game's pretty fun to play though. I could see myself killing a little time with it on my phone."},{"author_name":"DrPrettyPatty","author_uid":"30068","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 3:13pm","epoch":1429801680,"text":"Great job! Cute idea, funny, and challenging as you go along. I scored 111 :) It seems to reach a point where all you can do is bunch the angry fellows together, since the cooldown of the love can is longer than the spawn of the grumbly guys. I agree with the others, this could make a nice mobile game!"},{"author_name":"Sandcrawler","author_uid":"3966","time":"Apr 26, 2015 @ 4:05am","epoch":1430020800,"text":"I featured your game in my video series.
