I like the graphics! I really didn't know what I was doing, though.

I love the art for the squid. It would have been nice if there was more stuff around.

Fun boss fight. I like how it changes up its attacks.

Great art! Punishing but I liked it. I also enjoyed reading the console log. ouch!

Really like the art

I could not really tell what the theme was. There where more then 2 controls and nothing grew. Maybe I did not play enough.

Nice game!! the graphics are absolutely awesome!

The graphics was great, and the gameplay itself pretty fun, but how was it related to the theme?

laFunk14 Dec 2015, 14:52

Superb graphics, nice gameplay (super hard!), I don't see the theme though! Cheers!

Unable to run. "MSVCR120.dll missing". At work right now, so will have to wait till I get home to give it a go.

I tried to get it to run on my Linux computer but it said "MSVCR120.dll missing" or something like that. I tried downloading some .exe and running it with wine. It said it was going to fix my problem but now I have something called "Smart Card Manager" on my computer. What should I do?

If you get "MSVCR120.dll missing" try installing Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime (you may not have it on work computer).

Sorry no Linux support yet!

It was really interesting but I didn't know what I was doing at first

ThreeLivesGames15 Dec 2015, 21:04

Fun game wish it was longer.

Enjoyable boss fight! Cute game

Fairly nice engine for a top down action game, but I feel like it needs some more enemies, as well as a way to heal. Didn't really see a theme connection, but at least it was fun.
