Love the player flinging mechanics

The movements of the other players/scientists? was pretty good! It felt like being in multiplayer and the others are very rude XD

Fun game! It took me a couple rounds to get used to the controls, but after a couple rounds the controls felt nice and fluid. I'd love to play a multiplayer version of this with friends--it'd be a blast. Also, the music slaps!

Some more variety in the gameplay I think would be all I'd recommend to round out the experience.

Cool game.. had fun playing

Wow, fun game. I liked the idea of carrying boxes so as not to explode. Really unstable reactor

This would be an absolute blast as a multiplayer experience!

Really good! Had a lot of fun once I figured out what was happening. The "enemies" felt REALLY smooth and it was very satisfying to dodge their attacks! Great entrance!

That was so much fun :). I agree with previous commenters that this would make an absolutely awesome multiplayer game. Really, really enjoyed it.

I really liked this, the gameplay was nice and simple and the controls were unique, I found that after a few minutes I was just camping the reactor and letting the bots cool the reactor while trying to hit me, I ended up quitting at around 8K points. Overall a very great effort!

really cool game! i only wish dash was on spacebar, it's a bit unusual for games to have shift-dash

Got just over 10k points! This game had really good game-feel from the sound effects to the screen flashes which made it really hectic and satisfying when you eventually got out of a pile-up. Liked the music too, nice work!

Nice game. Well done!

Nice game! The mechanics are solid but its too easy once you figure out the AI. I just stood infront of the reactor and let them collect and throw the green boxes at me. Could probably have stood there all day.

@memoryfloater you are not a regular worker anymore - you are lead manager.

This feels exactly like every online game ever. (And I mean that in a good way) Very well-made, I love how you can just make the AIs do everything for you! (Thanks @memoryfloater 😉)

I died with

but some of the AIs spawned after the reactor became unstable and kept throwing stuff everywhere, so I managed to boost my score by doing nothing.

Heck, I'll gladly take an extra 2000 points!

I really love this game, had good time playing it and it's kind of funny to see all little mans throwing thing at me
