Fun lil puzzle game, for some reason the artstyle feels familiar but idk why??? Cool game !!

Submitted(+1)

Great concept, it was fun trying to find the right angle in some levels !

On thing, what is the purpose of the base aim mode (not the laser one) ? I couldn't shoot with it, had to switch to the laser all the time.

Way to go with the voice acting! Great entry all around. 

Developer

Thank you!

Incredible voice acting, we should drink with more plastic straws to stop these turtles! This is the gungeon minigame but as a whole game

Developer

Wait... that wasn't the moral of the story 😨

Submitted(+1)

It´s a great idea! And the puzzles difficulty is well done

simple concept that's perfectly polished and executed


only real issue is the level with the shitton of turles on the left (it made me think that i had to somehow fire at them)


i love the glow that the lines have

Some of the levels took multiple attempts to figure out but overall very solid and fun idea.

I enjoyed your game a lot. The main mechanic was very solid, with me never feeling confused by how the shots worked. Game was extremely polished and stable. Animation and sounds were all very enjoyable and snappy. Voice lines were a nice touch. Only thing that threw me off was that one level where there are two levels shown at a time, made me think I had to defat all of the enemies on screen. Congrats on submitting!

Really nice balance between fun and challenging, well done :D

Developer

Half the sound effects are homemade, kudos to my teammate

I loved this game sooooo much. The voice acting kinda sounds like the Canadians from south park XD I have played games with this mechanic, but the humour and charm of the game really shines. Got stuck on this level tho? If you could help me out. But other than that, very well done. Thank you for making this :)


Developer

Glad you liked the game! You have to use the barrel like this after you destroy all the boxes. This level is pretty difficult I admit.

blame me for that one, i designed it :D

Submitted

Fantastic game! Keep doing what your doing. You guys make a great team :D

:D thx (stealing compliments, though i am part of the team)

Nice idea, enjoyed ricochets. At some point got stuck with pixel hunting to find the exact position for the shot. Really liked the artwork and the fact that you've done the voice acting!

Submitted(+1)

THIS GAME IS JUST A BLESSING!! The game was very addictive, and I had to spend a lot of time tinkering with some aspects.

This game is PEAK! Gameplay? Peak !! Voice Acting? Peak!!!  Sound? Peak!!!!  5 star game no question ask.

Developer(+1)

THANK YOU YOUR GAME IS PEAK TOO

Submitted(+1)

Very well done game, The idea of voice acting is really great, the mechanics were fun and simple and the story is great. Really good job :)

Submitted(+1)

This game exudes charm. The voice acting is super silly, the art is amazing, the basic game loop is fun and satisfying with some really clever puzzles! This gets a perfect score from me!

Developer

Thank you so much!

Submitted(+1)

Very cool voice acting, that was fun. Also, very creative idea. I would have loved to see maybe a more tight countdown for the first levels, felt like it didn't matter how many shots I wasted. Overall, great entry congrats!

Submitted(+1)

Nice Idea and I love your voice acting, it's made me felt like playing intro of henry the stickman haha

If you have the time, please try and rate my game too :D

Developer

Thank you! I'll check out your game for sure :)

It was so sad when I had to satisfyingly ricochet combo everyone in that chiIdcare. The voice acting is so funny especially the ending 10/10. Definitely a roller coaster of emotions. Great level design, probably the best game I played so far
