Badass by Sos
Badass decided to perform natural selection himself!
Help him get rid of hipsters!
The game is really simple, press X to attack nearest enemy!
You can also do the jump! (Space, Z, Y, or Q)
DON'T LET HIPSTERS FLANK YOU! Jump when you're surrounded!
This game is super short, because you have many more games to play. You can beat it in just few moments! It's also quite easy but you can get your ass kicked by a bunch of hipsters if you're careless!
Have fun!

That was actually really fun and silly.
Hilarious, as expected from Sos. :) My only complaint is that it's short. Maybe this could be the next McPixel? ;)
The game maybe repetitve, but darn it. Just smash the X and watch hipsters get exploded! :D
The number of stages was pretty satisfying, and the different backgrounds and transitions kept the game feeling fresh. Nice work! :)
+ nice graphics and animations
+ really effective audio
+ I played it just to see what was coming up next
- kinda short
The sound was really cool, the theme was added in such a cool way! overal 4.5/5 stars
Awesome characters, cut-scenes and music.
I haven't really gotten the hang of a solid strategy yet though, it often feels like there is no resistance at all from the hipsters, but sometimes they surround me and I get stuck in an eternally looping hurt-animation(can't even jump). I'll just have to practice on how to be more of a badass I guess. :P
Though I the game is really simple, it's really fun to play... and the graphics were really well made!
The pacing of the levels and cut-scene is awesome!
And beat it of course.
The only thing that I found a little flawed was that I was able to complete most levels by just pressing "x". Anyway Had fun playing! Great game! :D
The graphics are excellent!
I laughed the whole way through. You're a fucking champion.
Of all the mammals appearing in documentaries, the humans have to be one of the most curious when it comes down to that topic. The dominance hierarchies are subtle and somewhat contrived, often inconsistent between different groups, and subject to numerous influencing parameters.
Also interestingly, each tribe or clan wants to exert its own dominance over other groups, in a sort of meta-hierarchy. It is not surprising that recently recognized groups, like the American Hipster, has a low ranking position in that scale. Whether bound to us by biology or by cultural factors, we always want to find a group to pick on.
Through the use of interactive mythology, this piece exemplifies the complexity of the issue pretty well. The storytelling acumen is fragrant here, and by putting the player in the seat of the aggressor - the alpha male, in its eternal quest for control - it raises the question of whether perpetuating the hatred is a worthy quest, as it is one without an end.
Great audio; very uplifting. Voiceovers are top notch. Beautiful graphics. Controls somewhat confusing. Missing hipsters with fixies. My best rated game on LD #24 so far.
I think it was just a bit too fast to recognize all details in the background ;)
+ The badass reminded me of Duke Nukem :D
Altogether: Well done & 'It's time to kick ass' :)
This was really enjoyable, and the explosions were quite satisfying. I actually lolled at the riding the ATAT part.
Also, thought for you: Everybody in this world BUT for 'Badass' is apparently a hipster, which makes them... the mainstream? And thus no longer hipsters? 'Badass', being the only one of his kind, is therefore the MOST hipster, and should surely beat himself up?
...I'm thinking too far into this, aren't I?
I did think the music obfuscated the dialog a little too much though which was a shame because what I could make out was hilarious.
Another thing is, from an art perspective, I thought that pale grey-ish off-white color was kind of over-used. It got especially confusing in the last desert-y area where the background sand dunes perfectly matched everyone's skin tone. Speaking of, the Badass should definitely have been more tan, to better fit his character and to help differentiate him visually from the Hipsters.
My girlfriend is begging me to stop playing, but I just have to kill those hipsters!
This is a pretty solid entry!
The game is awsome! Had a good fun!
never had more fun for bashing one button for two minutes, well done
(nice music!)
Great game! Got fun to the part i was fighting the source of hipsters. Keep it coming!
Amazing game!
There is another game in #LD24, here:

Also, this isn't exactly the place to discuss that! Catch me up on #ludumdare IRC channel. ;)
Sos' games are just too fun and well-made to miss.
So is Badass, which has great graphics, great sound and a random Waldo cameo. The gameplay could be more defined, but that's what the hipster would ask for.
What I liked most? ... hard to say. I guess the overall picture.
You can win the game by mashing x without even looking though. But deeper combat may take away the awesome essence of the game.¨
Great job.
Cheers and hugs <3<3<3
