I didnt find this very funny but I don't know if it should be^^. But the game manages to make you feel like you are handycapped. Very nice job on that.

The idea... You're crazy :D

Controls are sluggish, but I believe this is somewhat the point :)? Difficulty progression was quite good, I liked how falling blocks are introduced right in the beginning. Some audio would have been nice.

Haha. Hilarious. Would be even more so with a little hopping sound. Hup hup hup hup hup

Simple graphics but they do the trick.

Interesting take on the theme. I think the hardest part for me was getting up that damn staircase, though I suppose thats appropriate. Well done

Good stuff. It frustrates me that I can't do more than one action at the same time.

Best theme interpretation!

ok, I don't you'll be beaten on humour, at least from my point of view.

[mandatory] I guess he is on his last leg. I really like your primitives based art style. The pacing is interesting requiring patience and precision. I wonder how this guy happened to find himself in a dungeon with one leg anyways? ... I think you should rename this game "Last Leg".

The entire one leg thing was great xD

Very good use of the theme! The gameplay was just right! Too bad it was kind of short. (not for LD though). Great job, man!!
rjhunter18 Dec 2013, 04:04
The length was about perfect for an LD entry. Long enough to get a feel for it, short enough to play quickly and rate other games. Good level design and progression.

A little bit of sound would have gone a long way, and it would have been nice to turn "attack OR jump OR move, you only get one" from a frustrating limitation into "just part of the game".

Looks very promising, love the falling blocks. I couldn't jump in a direction which means I haven't been able to cross the gap, maybe check your keydown and events and for setting up and right/left to true at the same time or something (I had this problem before).
dqmhose18 Dec 2013, 14:19
Awesome xD It's soooo slow paced but that's half the fun sometimes xDD

I like the concept, though I felt it was too slow. The level design is very cool, especially for the first two levels.
Well done!

Awesome use of the Theme. I'm stuck because I don't get how to beat the black skeleton though.

Yes, awkward controls game. Well done!
bowlercaptain21 Dec 2013, 08:06
The black skeleton was really difficult - up to that point, it had been about preplanning your motions pretty meticulously, but once that was replaced with a challenge of reaction time with so much delay on the controls, the difficulty curve turned vertical. Cool concept - the controls definitely make you feel physically disabled.

i thought this was a really cool take on the theme. it was funny without even trying to be, which i really liked.

the level where there are two caged monsters could have been designed a bit differently. i was able to kill the monster on the left through the bars before flipping the switch.

overall great entry!

Funny take on the theme. Also good because games rarely focus in handicap. BTW the thrower was very hard.

The range of the sword seem a bit shorter than than it looks. Like that the game has a boss would be nice with some more advanced levels.
psc199724 Dec 2013, 13:01
Haha crazy idea! ;D
Good humor and fun! I like it! :D

Excellent use of theme and really neat mechanic. I really wanted to have that other leg though.
