I can't believe that I could play as none other than a purple creature named Bingus. Truly a swell naming choice! I checked this out mainly because it sounded entertaining. The fact that it was a full-on beat 'em up surprised me, especially with the multi-hit combos and diverse moveset! The drone was also quite entertaining. However, I do think a little more focus on just the beat 'em up aspect could've been helpful. I did end up finding the lack of response to my attacks from the enemies from normal attacks and a general lack of threat from the enemies a bit weird, and the targeting didn't work super well. However, I found using the ground-pound mixed with the charge punch made for some satisfying tomfoolery!

Moveset is a lot of fun, but enemies feel like they have a lot of hp and there isn't a ton of feedback for how much my attacks are doing. I'd mostly just charge up punches while jumping around for a few minutes, then repeat for the next room. I did like picking up enemies to try and knock others off platforms, and I liked grappling through the lava sections. Also, cutscenes for a jam game is impressive. Overall, solid entry!

That was a great experience. I loved figuring out different ways to kill the enemies. Going fat to push everyone off was fun.


btw full on cutscenes was nice!

The moveset has so many small intricacies and interactions to discover--knocking enemies away with bigmode, doing grappling hook kicks, ground pounding all the way from the ceiling--and it's so much fun to chain all of these moves together. Will come back to this again!

I'm glad you're enjoying it!

Very slick.

To boomps or not to boomps. That is the question.
