This is the best game I've found so far, really addictive and fun despite the complete wackiness! Love it!

Nice and simple, works like you'd expect. Interesting progression by acquiring the different arms that some newer enemies come with. The only indication you've caused damage is maybe a sound effect, could be more helpful if it was more apparent.

damn, if this was a full game on steam and maybe not top-down, I think this can get some traction. Very creative :)

I love the concept and the theme is spot on. I couldn't enjoy it a lot though as I play on an AZERTY keyboard.

Very interesting idea, could definitely see this being even more fun with a co-op mode.

Nice game ! It's fun when you first throw both your legs at the same time and then you realise how bad this idea was...

This is rather enjoyable, though I think it's a bit too frustrating to play for too long. It's not clear if a limb is still enough to not to damage to you when you try to pick it up. Maybe limbs should turn orange when they're pick-up-able?

Nice combat mechanics! I miss some satisfying effects of DESTRUCTION lollol ... this is a nice idea for a project that can become a quite good game

LoL this game is hilarious. I kept having controls lock me in one direction for some reason. It was fun throwing my arms around. Especially the rocket ones!

Cool game, very interesting/unique combat! I like how you can pick back up your limbs (or other people's lol). The game plays very well, physics are kinda floaty which works well with the combat.

Here's how I did after a few tries :)

A fine game, nice concept! Also I like the sound design, why don't you let to rate sound?
