Game is really fun, the giant eyes and moustache in the background are terrifying (in a good way), and the increase in difficulty over time has a good pace to it. Not really sure what purpose jump serves, as the obstacles are coming down from above.

@jake-pearce Yeah the jump is really for aesthetic purposes, Thanks for playing.

Game feels very nice to play! The art, feedback, and music are all very great. Pacing is also great--the game never feels easy as the speed ramps up fast, which makes it exciting to play! I also do enjoy having two hands that go for our Remy. I feel having two hands that drop down makes the dodging a bit more strategic and differs this game from other games in this genre.

aha ah super nice!
It felt so tense, I was really into my characters, running around.

The music is really setting the pace, good job!

What a silly and entertaining concept, very novel! The music was definitely suspenseful, it kept me on my toes as the hands sped up. I'd love to see more variety of mechanics, but overall this was a solid entry I enjoyed playing!

this is cool. I like how there is no end and it gets progressively harder. Great job!

The game is quirky in good way, interesting concept, liked how it gets harder overtime, though you can momentarily exploit the game so the hands stays in one place by going under them rly fast

Perfect little Warioware minigame :) Really fun! Loved the sound effects and art!

It's a hard roach life. I have to say, though, old Francois Ratatouile must be really good at getting the herbs and spices off the highest shelves... look at the arms on this guy! This was actually a lot of fun and the music suited it perfectly. The difficulty scaled nicely but I only managed to get a high score of 41 :(

Great job!

Simple concept but you guys make it extremely fun! I can't help but gasping everytime I nearly got hit.

Very nice game. Love the arcade feel, it reminds me a lot of a Warioware minigame.

Fun and hectic, I got up to 54 and at that point it was getting very hard. I like the style and presentation overall, simple and neat!

Cool little gem!
Enjoyed the music while playing. Simple engaging combo!

i was the cockroach remy and this chef does not like me or want me in his kitchen, but he is bad at aiming.

Unfortunately for him, I have salmonella, dysentery, leprosy and the plague.

If you're used to action-platformers such as the Mega Man games, you'll obviously know the pattern of the hand attacks.

Nice little fast paced game! The music really sets the mood, just listen to it and you're ready to rumble!
I imagine the audio could be little too loud on headphones. Was there a option to adjust/mute them?

Good job, solid entry!
