Fun, addicting, and difficult gameplay, with very solid skill-based control.

This is a really nice crunchy arcade game. Well done!

A solid arcade game and an overall fun game. Couldn't stop playing til I had conquered the leaderboard. Nice job.

Super juicy. Online leaderboards are impressive, and also really cool for this kind of a thing. Really liked the gameplay surrounding how fragile nature was- added a nice layer of difficulty. Excellent!

I found myself trying to beat the leaderboard scores. Very addicting and solid gameplay.

Pretty cool. Feels like some old Mac games I used to play, gameplay-wise. Controls are a bit awkward, but that also feels like some old Mac games I used to play... so, it fits. Anyway, neato fun.

Simple concept, but excellent execution. This has more polish than I think I've ever seen from a compo entry.

Fun and addicting game! Great menu music, I would have liked to listen to it while playing as well.

Nice :). I would've liked to have the music in the main game screen, as well as the title screen. But, other than that, very solid entry!

Wow, very polished game. It feels quite good, the sounds, graphics, controls harmonize a lot. Is there the possibility to actually win? Doesn't matter. Good job on that 48hours!

My favourite so far, love the look and feel of it. Reminds my of my DOS VGA days, and an online leaderboard?! Well done!

Someone summed it up well in the comments. Simple concept, great execution. Everything works really well, I especially like the graphics. I think the enemy shits travel a touch quick for my taste, but maybe that's because i suck. :p

Glad you like the game :) I didn't have time to make a longer music track, so in-game it's just sound effects.
Bronaldplo8 Dec 2014, 14:40
Really nice game, well done. I liked the sounds too :)

Cool game! Love the gameplay and the twist of destroying the "good guys". :) Good luck!

Classic arcade style game with tight controls and a satisfying difficulty curve. Good job!

This is awesome. Very well done for 48 hours, including leaderboards was a great touch. My favorite enemies were the wall-building guys, because they would frequently trap themselves in a tomb of stone, haha. Really well done.

Cool game ! It's really fun and I like the graphics, especially the render.
Maybe it's missing music, but you did a good job at coding an online leaderboard !

I spent far more time than I should... That means it's a great game :D Very difficult at some point and leaderboards... yummy.

Very well executed all around, good polish. The play is rather basic, but it's fun for a few minutes.

Strong arcade-style entry, especially with the online leaderboard available. Starts a bit slow, but once it picks up it's very fun. Well done!
