Cool Game!
Movement was very unique while still be easy to understand.
Splatting little people was fun!

It was _very_ satisfying to slap those bastards.

довольно жестокая игра, но мне понравилось) было круто залипнуть в нее, механика очень медитативная и вызывает приятные эмоции. единственный минус в том что тема не особо читается, но в остальном все супер

Played using the double slap tactic!

The game reminded me of the hand from Black & White :hand_splayed:

Прикольная, залипательная игра! Почувствовал себя великаном, которого разбудили мелкие гады)

Great use of inertia as a game mechanic! The game is a bit weird but fun to play and I love the easter eggs.

Great job! Good luck with your future projects!

Cute game, really like the idea

I think my experience was ruined by bugged hitboxes playing in firefox, because I could hit right above a little dude and it would hit maybe one out of ten times

I love me some weird games like this. There's something about those sounds though, that made it very satisfying to slap them. It feels kinda like slapping mokitos out of my skin. Really amazing entry, good job!

Nice game.

The movement mechanics were unique and I liked the hints at the end of the game.

This game reminded me that it's almost time to install a mosquito net on my window.

The sounds are just топ.

This game has such a weird vibe, I love it. Slapping was quite challenging with the small hitboxes, but I'm glad I slapped 20 of them for the bonus extras :D good job!
