The formatings a bit weird and the controls feel weird.The art looks amazing it all fits together the shadings beautiful.

Holy mackrel this feel like a complete game, you guys did amazing and I love the art it's top notch, only beef I have in this entry is: when you have a lot of text like this, option to reveal whole text would be amazing, I read faster than it appears. Great entry

Really fun, and felt super polished! Good job! I really liked the art and was surprised with how good the movement and attacking felt. My only gripe is that the villain spawned on top of Valentine a couple of times and immediately caused me to lose, but overall very fun!

omg the graphics and audio are so good! really enjoyable. the font choice made it near impossible to read tho hhaha and as said above the scroll speed was pretty slow!

@maxter10001 Thanks for playing the game. You can move Valentine like any other object to keep her safe

I liked your game very much. At the beginning I forgot I could pick object up which made it way harder but I still managed to beat it. Killing ennemies by throwing your friend was fun !
The graphics are really beautiful though the boss is quite subpar in term of quality compared to the rest.
The font was hard to read and I feel like you could add an indicator for the amount of health remaining for the boss.
Overall, really nice game !

Love the graphics and gameplay. I got a lot of bugs like things disapearing when I grab them or something like that. But I had a lot of fun playing this!

Gorgeous graphics ! Gameplay is good but you are rapidly overwhelmed by enemies and I didn't find time to attack VO. So I tried additional runs and running directly to kill him seem to be the way to finish the game.. Great work

Really cool art style, and fun mechanics. Seems like holding Valentine forever is the OP strategy. Engaging with the rest of the items and weapons seems like certain death for her when she doesn't have invincibility.

Pretty slick game, but I had some trouble with the controls. Space and E are pretty far from each other, usually ZXC are used in platformers. Other than that it was a challenging, but fun game. I particularly enjoyed that the best way to kill the ghosts was to carry the girl at them. Not throw, just hold her up and touch them! :D

I don't think I could skip the next scene or go to the next dialog, ended up having to hit ESC key to get past the first dialogue when it got stuck. Eventually managed to play the game, after the first game that went horribly wrong I finally got a handle of what I could do and how to play. I mostly ended up throwing the woman at the enemies as she often didn't take damage and made sure she was moving so it was harder for things to get her XD

aaaaa loved this one, i actually got hooked to it for quite a bit haha. it's a really exciting game and picking up stuff to throw it when you're in a pinch really added to the feel. very good entry. font is hard to read.
