There should be a victory screen. Did it crash for you?

The mechanics all sort of work, but I never figured out what was useful about the turtle and the armadillo aside from digging. For the final boss I dodged attacks with the cat and then switched to the porcupine to drop some attacks. It was a bit tricky with the lazer, but it is still completely possible to avoid that by running while still stopping to get attacks off. On that note, the porcupine's ranged attack is 10 times more useful than any other attack since most of the enemies are entirely melee based and can't move in to attack you quickly.

The music was good if a bit repetetive and the writing touches added a nice sprinkinling of personality to the game. Muricalligator looks great as do his attacks.

A bit random but amusing nonetheless.

I definitely prefer the 2nd form. Everything is faster. Otherwise, maybe a bit too much of enemy sometimes! But that sure that the cat is pretty cheaty!

Ok, this was way more fun than I thought it would be. I finally beat the game. The story was so odd, yet the challenge was achievable, I had to see it through. The collision/controls have a real old NES feel to it (good and bad :-)

Great job!

This game is fine. Interesting ideas, Zelda like graphics and even a menu and music.

There were a lot of keys to remember, and in the end I was like moving all over the keyboard.

Also, this game has less bugs than your earlier LD games, so that's a real good improvement.

I'm satisfied with this game. Yay!

This was nice! The levels, as cudely introduced as they were, performed the function of introducing the mechanics!

I very much liked the dialog!

Hi I had problem with controls. The enemies were always stuck somewhere, which was good for killing them but i guess they should be more fluent in the movement. Otherwise nicely done. Music complemented the game very well . I had to fight multigator dozen of times since it always killed me with nuclear strike :-D Need some more work on the fluent of movement and hitting for enemies, otherwise feels and plays nicely. Good work.
