Really great idea man. Could help to make it more fun to slash enemies in one shot and just run with some obstacles fast or someting similar to ghost  runner. But great graphics.

WOW, your style is very similar to the style in the game "Lucid Blocks" and it's really cool, it really evokes interesting emotions, good job!

Developer(+2)

Thank you! I hadn't heard of that game before, I'll check it out :)

lol this was hilarious, loved it :) i do wish it a bit harder or got harder with more enemies. i liked the duke nukem style voice lines too lmao

ok this is pretty fun! I really wish there was more to do, or at least that the difficulty would increase over time

the leaderboard is a really nice addition

this just screams like yall had fun making this and I love that about it

Developer(+2)

It was a ton of fun to make. We had plans for more features but we're all working adults so we only had time for so much lol. We may expand this into a full game for Steam :)

I loved this, would love a whole dungeon crawler or rpg in this style, this is super sick. Honestly not an entirely complicated game, but that doesn't matter, fighting people was so much fun and numba go up! So who gives a shit! This was awesome.

Hahaha thanks man! We actually had plans for some more interesting mechanics that ended up getting cut, but we are considering expanding this into a full game :)

Phenomenal, Absolutely masterpiece. Funny and super unique, 5 starts across the board. Did have 1 bug where I fell off the map but besides it super cool.

Wow thank you!! So glad you liked it!

Very charming game, with the characters and the edgy voice lines really adding to it. But I do wish it wasn't so easy to stunlock the enemy. Also there seems to be a hole in the wall...

Bro such a fun game! Were the enemies you guys’ photos? It was so fitting!

Developer(+2)

Haha yeah I recorded myself in various coats in an extremely hot garage at 2AM.

Insanely strong visual identity. And satisfying gameplay overall.

I love how all the enemies (and presumably you) are the same guy. Art is on point. Voice lines add so much too.

Developer(+2)

I don't know what you're talking about, man. Those are all entirely different people...
