You only get one season of Firefly! The most depressing of statements. One guy went looking for explanations, did he find them? Play the super-awesome action game 'Finding Serenity' to find out.

Haha, hilarious! :D Also you just totally went Spec Ops: The Line on me.

Haha that was surprisingly funny. Nice simple gameplay too, I didn't get very far (I kept dying). Still had fun though. Nice job!

Quite humorous, a bit surreal. Good job!

The ending was the best part!

nice one! Good feeling, smooth controls, and a very funny back story! Good use of the theme as well. But I failed at the flying head since I killed him outside the wall then I couldn't reach him.

Hahaha. Hilarious. Funniest entry so far.
I especially liked the voice over.

Controls and graphics could of course use more work. Some elements like the text bubbles did not go well with the old-school graphics style.
Z-Rendering on those workers worked not always and some text was therefore hidden by another worker.

Haha, humorous, I enjoyed it although you lost marks for portraying Murdoch as a Australian. We want nothing to do with him, he is American now.

Ok, this is crazy - but "You only get one season of Firefly" surely is the best take on the theme so far! :D

Oh my God!)) Why I didn't watch FireFly? Because I don't want to kill everybody on Fox I guess =)
Nice game! I think some HP bar would be helpfull. Good job!

Cool concept. Now I need to re-watch Firefly :(

A little bit weird, but fun nonetheless :) .

This is a very unique idea for a game. I like the concept and the sense of humor. That artwork looks really nice too.

Ha I've not watched Firefly... but I want to now. I feel it must be worth it lol. Fun game though

Haha, I like the Murdoch graphic! I actually just walked past everyone in level 1 and it said "Workers Killer: 100"... is that right? I loved the ending.

Six seasons and a movie!

That was really funny!
I ran into a bug at the end. The floating head just dissipated and I couldn't do anything.

I've never seen Firefly before (don't even know if its real!), but I loved this game!:)

Wow. I don't really care for Joss Whedon, so I didn't know what to expect. But I appreciated the games sense of humor.

In my defense, I stabbed him because I was in a video game.

The empty shelves labelled 'Emmies' was probably my favourite bit. Can I have a game about murdering the Fox News staff too? That doesn't sounds crazy does it?

Funny take on the theme - I wonder if this game will inspire them to bring Firefly back?

OK, I'm laughing hard. Might be the funniest LD entry I've ever played. The gameplay isn't anything innovative, but not bad (though I would have liked some sort of visible hitpoints; I got killed quite a few times), but the comedy is excellent. The graphics are simple, but funny: the only thing I'd improve is the walking animation.

SPOILERS

My favourite part was the bit where the game calls our browncoated hero out for going on a killing spree over a TV show. The executives' dialogue was an absolute riot, too.

Great job!

This was pretty awesome, I enjoyed it quite a bit. I liked how the guys were sort of like, zombie-like and the blood spraying everywhere was a nice touch.
