Funny, and really cool graphics! I showed a few of my friends this game! GREAT JOB! I have not finished playing yet, but I know I love it. If I have any negative feedback, I will recomment and revote, but I doubt that will happen :)

I enjoyed the hip swinging action. It was pretty humorous, but I think what would have made this even better and funnier is a disco theme soundtrack. Overall, its a fun game!

This is awesome. Nice art style and solid gameplay. It's very One Finger Death Punch, although I like that you added player movement into the equation too.

This game was great! I like how it pauses when you land a hit, it just feels good. Creative and funny to boot.

Amazing game, well polished gameplay, great art. As said above, the music could be a little more ridiculous to fit the theme. Rated it high overall. Congrats!

GIMME MOAR OF THIS! (Also it showed only a part of the screen on 1024x768, had to go for 1920x1200).

So it's basically Kung Fury game, isn't it? Except with 300% more DANCE!

The art and simple story was well executed. I think the gameplay could be pushed a little for it takes a while to die. Overall very good entry. I commend you for completing a game that's within scope and

This is really nicely polished for a jam game. The sound and graphics are all cohesive and appealing, and the action has a real impact. It's inherently satisfying blowing through a crowd of enemies, but I found the combat mechanics unintuitive - I couldn't tell why sometimes I would rush in and get hit, while other times I could just mash through a huge mob. Also, the off-center text bugged me, though I give you credit for having the good sense to make the cinematic skippable. I expect that I'll come back and visit this one again sometime.

Nice game. I only think the music could be more "dancing". Something more rhythmic. Other than that, good job!

Great game! Really satisfying to smack down the enemies. I love the sprite animations and the music.

However, it kind of seems like the best strategy is to just button-mash... it's still very satisfying to dance enemies to death, but it'd be cool to see more mechanics introduced.

I think a funky or disco music would work better. But, I liked the graphics and the idea.

First try was a bit wonky - I had to match the Unity configuration/game resolution with my Windows screen resolution to get the game working.

Poor decapitated dogs... Tap-and-kill dancing - quite unique! But I did not find much challenge in the gameplay alas.

Only 64bit windows? Too bad.
