Solid game in the "getting over it" genre, with clever use of the theme to make some of the navigation easier. VOD here, thanks for submitting to the stream!

Looks cute, and a fun interpretation of the theme! And of Sisyphus :)

Controls were a bit too difficult, and I wish I had more ammo :D

Fellow Scratch game :)

The physics is really well done, and it's a good twist on Getting Over It.

Interesting, got a cat, fun to stand on the pile of your own corpses to reach higher. I would have liked some more sound design in there and possibly a general idea of where to go ( I barely left the spawn so maybe that's more clear when you get farther but I suck ). Overall cool game!

i def agree. i didn't leave any time for qa and more instructions for the player would've really helped players understand more, especially if they were in game. i

As someone who programmed their GMTK entry in Scratch, this game made me laugh out loud as soon as I started it. Hilarious theme and I loved the graveyard of bad scratch code-- and with shades of Getting Over It, this game was too funny.

This was a really clever way to achieve something Bennett Foddy-like, enjoyed this one :)

This is such a funny and creative game. It's a super fun mashup of a few genres and incorporates this year's theme really well. If the controls were explained a little better in-game and the shotgun charge-up was a little faster, it would be perfect. Great job!
