Interesting gam with a cool concept. I like the punching sounds, and the background music is cute. Howeever, it might be a bit difficult to understand. I didn't understand what WASD does, as i didn't see any effect on the screen when i pressed them. Maybe add an option so skip the dialogue, so that you dont have to read it again everytime you restart.

Noice! Big plot twist at the end. My meta is to cycle through each tool with the middle mouse, and play it by ear to see if it works out. Interesting mechanic with the computer glitch / freezing.

Haha silly game lol punch the compute- WTFFFFFFFFFF

That went from 0 to 100 really fast. Nice job with that, this is like a lot of story in a tiny package. Not something you usually see from LD submissions.

That ending does kind of explain why the dude is so pissed off at his computer malfunctioning... he just wants to play his sister's game :cry:

I chuckled at this. Unique concept :smile:

I found myself in a scenario where the computer wouldn't work no matter how many times I hit it, or what I hit it with. Maybe that's the point. You've made me realize something here.

Great game! I love how you responded to the theme, it was a very innovative and funny concept. I couldn't seem to get it to work before my anger or the damage got too high, though as some of the others are saying, maybe that was intentional, who knows xD.

Took me a bit of time to understand how I was supposed to play, got into the loop, wondered where this was going and oooof :cry:

Geez, man. Didn't need to feel those feels today. Interesting concept. Bit difficult to understand at first, but it's always fun to break stuff with a hammer.

Overall: I'm really glad to have found this through the creator commenting on my game. That ending made my stomach sink! Big plot twist, big emotion, more than I was expecting. Well played.

Fun: Balancing anger and computer damage, very relatable to my daily life. XD Very fun to play. Ending made me freeze in place for a bit.

Innovation: Very unique idea executed very well!

Theme: Computer break every 10 seconds :ballot_box_with_check:

Graphics: Simple but pleasant I like them.

Audio: Crunchy hit sounds make good time.

Humor: Much until the end. then sad.

Mood: Panicked, frozen, surprised. Very good twist. Very sad.

Not gonna lie, the game truly didn't work for 10 seconds.

ok now seriously,

Trying to keep the damage and anger in balance is a cool mechanic, didn't really get what effects did the different tools have tho, just mashed them at random until something worked.

I like how it's implied that the music is playing in our character's head since sister's game supposedly has no music. The ending kinda came out of nowhere tho, definitely needs some build up.
