Your web link is not correct. It links to download a zip.

Please fix your web link.

The web version has a problem with right click... it's playable but right clicking brings up the context menu.

Jesus this game is hard. Very fun though, I couldn't stop playing!

Great work!

(+) Game harder every wave.
(+) Attack variation.
(-) it has few enemy types.

Is it top down? Is it side on? I can't tell! It was pretty fun. I liked the weird light guy, but as someone else mentioned, the dodge didn't work on the web player (well it did after I accidentally went full screen). It got difficult really quickly!

Good game, but you should disable de right click in GameJolt (it's really easy) because interfears with the game mechanics

Not sure why I kept playing this. Sort of fun actually. And the glowing lights are very pretty :)

Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad folks are enjoying it.

Also I've gone and disabled right click on GameJolt. Sorry about that!

I enjoyed this WAY more than I initially thought. It feels really good flinging enemies into the spikes. I didn't like that the player just kind of flailed around at first, but then I realized it was kind of great.

Much better game than I was expecting! Very well done!
There is just something so satisfying about flip kicking baddies.

Attack of the disco breakdancer

That was pretty fun! I did enjoy the enemy variation as well as the somewhat unorthodox gameplay of 'push out to kill'. The game was a bit easy in that I was able to win on my second attempt, but it was a very satisfying experience. Kudos!

The intro was cool, but the game is too simple and doesn't gather together graphics, sound and idea.
