Make the game web playable next time. More people will turn up to play, trust me! But I did the good deed and downloaded it, and after reading what Bob went through, I dashed through some anger therapy afterwards and enjoyed myself.

There’s one bug: if Bob dies and you don’t press R to restart, you can keep going and carry on with the game.

Well done, and please take the time to play my game too!

Thank you so much for playing! I will be sure to check your game out.

Really funny concept and the idea is solid, but the gameplay department is a bit lacking and the lack of polish around elements like the boss fight cause it to be difficult to really fully enjoy it

But for something this short? Really fun ^^
