I do love the polish you've got going on (timing the stomps to the music is a great touch), just would've loved something added on to the main mechanic.
Together with the polished implementation by syncing the rhythm of gameplay and music and the applied shading it really makes a very good jam entry!
Marking the 'two types of children' in the highscore list is also a nice touch :smile:
Why doesn't the boy simply stop walking I have to wonder.
It's an amazing game that I couldn't stop playing until I got a high score. I also love how you included both playstyles. Probably one of my favorite games so far.
And also whoopsies I didn't know there were 2 play styles #GoPsychopath I guess \(^^')/
It's a little confusing at the beginning. The full-screen button doesn't work, we don't know if we must or if we must not squish the ants. By the way, it's a really cool idea to let us the choice squish/not squish.
Maybe you should fix the typo in the title: "Tow" -> "Two". It will definitely help us to realize we can choose between squishing all the ants or not squishing them.
The leaderboards are confusing too. It would have been better to have two leader boards. One for the squishers, another one for the not-squishers.
I did not understood either when the leader boards appear, and why it does not appear just when I click on a button, like in every other games.
I really love the sound effects, especially the fact you made all of them with your very own mouth.
