Satisfying mechanic, quick to pick up, good silly fun to play! The game over screen is the funniest thing I've seen in Ludum Dare -- nice one.

Great game! First it was really dificult to not kill the cultists, but, with some practice, it gets really cool. It was so funny when I was able to kill all the crusaders with just one fireball.
I would like to see more levels. Good job!

The game was funny and the graphics were pretty good. It's a little disappointing that the game had only 2 levels but it was still fun and I enjoyed it.

The controls took some getting used to but it's pretty addictive and I had fun. 10/10 voice acting and a nice original premise.

Sorry Travis! Took me a while to get it. I like the gameplay. Get's a bit repetitive tho. More slope variety would be nice. The throw mechanism feels a bit clunky.

The angle part of the game takes a bit of getting used to, as it doesn't always do what you'd expect it to. But it was a great game, filled with heaps of humour and light-heartedness. Loved it :)

The demon's excuses are hilarious! Very fun gameplay, but it gets boring fast because the difficulty seems to stay the same forever...

Would gladly pay for a fully-featured version with better assets!

Love the game ^_^
My favorite part was when the bad guy would say "I'm sorry" when you accidentally killed a cultist. The art was amazing and it was just hard enough to be fun and frustrating

Reversed Donkey Kong gameplay FTW. I love the characters.

The graphics in this game were incredible. I don't really feel like the comments when you kill a friendly contributed to game play, they actually broke the immersive feel. As @Mr. Chocolate Salmon said, the angle takes some getting used to. Aside from that this game is a work of art, and I would love to see more! Very well done!

Poor Travis... guess I was picking on him! (in his many incarnations)
Great work on the music and sound. I found the game a bit easy, though - just pick an angle and wait for the right time to launch. Nice work, though - I enjoyed it!
