The theme relation wasn't very creative and didn't go further than the fact that you're just a monster. The humor was quite shallow, yet the audio reminded me of happy wheels so that upped it a bit. Overall, not bad :)"},{"author_name":"dhargan","author_uid":"19378","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 12:14pm","epoch":1440418140,"text":"i made a similar game but this is more innovative i guess. good job :D"},{"author_name":"texus","author_uid":"27681","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 12:16pm","epoch":1440418260,"text":"The game was fun to play, I managed to kill 84 people before I starved to death."},{"author_name":"AdenMansonGames","author_uid":"38857","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 3:19pm","epoch":1440429240,"text":"Nice controls and using the gun was fun.

Fine game, but there were a few shortcomings:\r<br\/>4 directional movement is something you MUST avoid, or at least make it so the button pressed second has priority over the buttons pressed earlier.\r<br\/>AI wasn't amazing, and the aim-bot on the red humans was a bit broken so it became a bit of just &quot;go for the ones without guns, then survive for as long as possible while running towards the red ones.&quot;"},{"author_name":"boardtobits","author_uid":"57679","time":"Aug 29, 2015 @ 6:41am","epoch":1440830160,"text":"Running around!
