Hit Kevin's head to defeat him!

Favorite entry. Liked everything about it. Unfortunatly Kevin is really a tough opponent.

The game is hilaroious! I love the art style and overall humor of the game. Gameplay is pretty solid, it took me a while that I can slap Kevin in his face too (at first I thought I can only attack his spawns), but after I realized that it took me about two tries to win :) Very fun and funny game!

I like it !
But like the above comment, I don't understand how to slap Kevin :thinking:
Maybe you need more feedback when an attack hit something.
But well done :)

The art and animation is wonderful, it fits really well. Short, sweet and funny!

Very beautiful art. Attacking with hands wasn't obvious, bug game is cool anyway
Rodrigo Sousa5 Oct 2021, 13:58
it needs a more clarity but you have to jum on the squid hands an hit his face @pikario

Looks like Rodrigo had no time to do real graphics... too bad. :-/

@str8griz yeah screw Kevin! And wait until one day we actually add Rebecca to the game!

@niterich thank you so much!

@codeforjoycaro I'm so glad you liked it! We didn't have much time to play test and devs always have a tendency to make their games harder than they should :stuck_out_tongue: We'll make a version with some fixes and missing art.

@pikario @deav That is a very valid point, it needs a proper tutorial and more visual feedback

Haha. That was fun.

Really unexpected once it loaded lmao. I honestly couldn't figure out how to damage the main thing but it was still pretty entertaining.

The game is really cool! I like the mode - it was so much fun!!
The only thing that I missed a little bit was a good intro while playing. But just a personal opinion.

Very cool game - I laughed so hard :D
Legolulaauthor6 Oct 2021, 08:41
@hoffi309 thank you so much! Actually we wanted to add a cutscene at the beggining, that would help explain why a crybaby like Stephen is fighting a giant octopus monster and his goons, but we ran out of time. We'll be making a post jam version with everything we initally wanted to add to the game!

Good animations and very funny game ! It's a cool game, good job to the team !

Failed to pass the game, because damage to the boss do not had any feedback for me, but it looks pretty good, and I like that tentacles have collision boxes on them

Take that Kevin!
Short game but definitely fun. Defeating enemies by crying on them surely is something I should try some more.
Legolulaauthor6 Oct 2021, 16:15
@kukurammus Kevin has a damaged animation but your point is still very valid, it is unclear that you are supposed to hit his hair. Ill fix that today
figueroass276 Oct 2021, 20:13
I love the goofyness of the game and the animations for crying and slapping hands they are done really really well.
Teegan6 Oct 2021, 22:48
Stupid Kevin... This game is short and sweet and I'm definitely here for the silliness. Really funny game and I think if it had been any longer it would have taken away some of the humor to it. Definitely looking forward to seeing what a post-jam version looks like! Great job on this!

God, you really baited me with that game description, I love it! :laughing:

This game was so goofy and surprising. Really my only complaint is that sometimes the hitboxes are a bit wonky. Otherwise, the music, animation, and just overall feel of this game is soooo excellent! :ok_hand:

Really fun game! The boss battle is really well done and I liked the audio! Who knew tears could kill monsters
Rodrigo Sousa8 Oct 2021, 10:09

Cool game, the controls were a bit clunky in my opinion but the art was good and I had fun fighting the almighty kevin
predmada9 Oct 2021, 12:47
The game looked really good but I lacked feedback on when I hit something with the flailing arms and teardrops
Piper Thompson10 Oct 2021, 20:06
How can a simple 2d game like this max out my mac? Lack of fps did render it unplayable for me, unfortunately. Loved the graphics and i think it's cool gameplay i'm missing out...

It's a quite silly small boss fight game, the art style, animation and audio work all quite well together. Having to deal with switching between two kinds of attacks also added an interesting twist to the gameplay.

Some issues though :
- It's not quite intuitive at first of where you should hit at first and how the 'boss' works, whether you should try to hit the boss or the small bugs first.
- There's a bit of lack of feedbacks here and there. For example, it's not quite clear when the tears do damage or not, unlike the slaps that have a sfx upon hit.
- UI doesn't scale with screen size, so there's some overlapping issues when not playing in full screen
- There's a red circle rolling around which I didn't really understand what it was doing there (maybe a placeholder game object you forgot to delete ?)

I liked the design of Kevin, wasn't expecting that! The controls and the physics are a bit awkward, but I like how you switch between two states (crying and angry). A nice concept that could use a bit of polish in the controls imho. Good work!
