I like the humor of the introduction, and the die an retry style. The game is hard though ! It is also a good idea to change weapon because it change the timing of your attack. The music is cool too.

Love the premise. Platforming is pretty solid, and the graphics are neat. Love the sound effects. Music was a bit quiet - kinda expected in-your-face chiptunes to match the art style.

Was a little bit too hard for me. Got stuck on the third level. After picking up the sword, I couldn't get any further because it stopped me swinging it too fast.

Overall, pretty good stuff.

Loved that one background song, the sound effects were also top notch. It carried the good old platformer trait of making you want to throw your pc out the window everytime you die. Also, I'm afraid Frump may have fired that scientist, he only got his job the day before.

Good humor and loved the Frump sprite. Kept getting stuck on the wall though.

Pretty funny game! I love the voicework - all the sound effects are hilarious. The level design is actually really good too. The physics are a little jank - they work with the humor in this jam game, but I don't know if they would extend to a full game. I really liked it!

Sound effects were funny but also brought the game to life. I also enjoyed trying to complete the game (which was pretty tough) but being able to jam out to some cool trap tunes :) great submission!

The intro was super polished and I very much enjoyed the sound effects. Gameplay was fun, though sometimes unforgiving - I feel like you had to line up your attacks/jumps perfectly. I liked the visual style and animations especially - I felt like they had character and added to the humor.

One small complaint - I kept hitting restart by accident when I meant to shoot (I was conditioned to hit it due to all my dying :P) - you may want to remove the option to restart mid-level, unless there's a good reason to keep it.

Great music as well, I love the percussion. Nice work overall!

Very nice, very hardcore. I love the sprites, animation, your sounds, music, everything, but getting stuck in walls :) It's pretty hard.

Fun but pretty hard game, especially when the enemies are running away from you, loved the sound effects.

Good job

Nice! Great graphics and pretty fun gameplay. It's pretty hard right off the bat, though, so it might be targetting players who are more hardcore than I am, but I do like the stabbing.

I like it! There's a bit of a bug where you get stuck whenever you hit a wall. That being said, those SFX are lovely, and the running animation is pretty good. Great job!

A funny game with great audio. I think it could use a bit of balancing though.

The hitboxes of the attack aren't very accurate e.g. when slashing with the long sword it doesn't connect with the people running away, and the graphics could do with some work. Getting stuck on ledges as well. However, its still pretty fun and I made it until the part where you had to duck and attack consecutively. Hilarious soundbites make the game!

OMG man, WTF! 486th on overall and 358th on fun????

how can these guys rated so low on a completed, well-designed, challenging and fun game :frowning: .

I rated fun for 5* and I am sure your game is much funnier than the 1st fun game on the compo result!

Don't give up :cry:. Your game is great!
