I liked it overall, there wasn't much innovation or anything new though, the gameplay was fun and I enjoyed the platforming somewhat (not so much the shooting), I thought it didn't really go hand in hand with the theme though, I got that the whole idea was they were nothing but innocent creatures but I felt that without the text at the end you wouldn't have gotten that at all, it would have been a lot better with a soundtrack which would have helped the mood out a lot, good entry overall, good job.
"You have a gun so you must be the player" - ha! Loved it, also the subliminal message hidden on the "monsters" :) Good graphics and solid first entry!
I opted out of graphics because i thought the animations were a bit bad. Come to think of it, i really shouldn't have opted out :D. Thank you all for playing and commenting!
Congrats on your first LD game. I enjoyed it and played through it twice, the first time just blindly killing the poor blue men. Great visuals and no bugs!
I..totally liked it! I played it through twice to get both endings and I think it's cute to way you play off the assumption of a gamer's mind (shoot all the things) and actually reward when we don't do what it seems for us to want to do...I like it, and as your first Ludum game, awesome!
To be honest, I do tend to agree with those who feel the game didn't really use the theme to the best of its ability, however I do appreciate the time and effort it took to make the animation, the gameplay and the concept.
I played through the game a second time after becoming a monster, and was relieved to see that I wasn't as monstrous as I could be.
I really liked the art style of this game. everything looked nice and polished. The controls were tight and responsive, which was good too.
It seems like you had something bigger in mind but then ran out of time -- I think that happens to most of us in Ludum Dare. Maybe you could write you intentions in the description? I know not everyone reads the description, but I do!
Not bad for your first Ludum Dare. Obviously the gameplay isn't very deep, but it was short and funny. Decent art and sound effects, but I kinda wish there was some music.
nice animation and shooting, had some trouble with jumping, maybe you should let your character jump a little after the edge (in the air) for better feel.

Good work :D
