Goodness, these actors are healthy! I had fun hitting them with tomatoes, but it was a bit hard! Stil a great idea tho :)

This is a really cool game, but I'm really bad at it!  I personally use a trackball mouse so it felt weird with the inverted controls, but I can totally see how using a regular mouse the motion emulates pulling a slingshot.

Cool idea, to sling shot bad actors! I like the game, was fun to play. Maybe a little bit too hard for me but I managed at least some stages after some trying.

My girlfriend loved it! It was really fun to play and the sound effects were on point. Nice little game!

This one was fun! The roguelike upgrades are a great touch and the concept is pretty funny. The controls took a bit to get used to but that's no big deal. I really like how the actors project their movement ahead of time, that's a great (and necessary) bit of polish that prevents the movement from feeling random. Nice job!

This is such a hilarious idea, well done! Also very fun to play. You got upgrades in there and everything? Quite impressive on all fronts. Aim the tomatoes was agonizing because of the inverted controls, but it's not necessarily a bad thing? You could argue that it fits the theme, and I get why you'd do that for the slingshot. Much less buggy than our game haha.

Congrats on a jam well done!

Love this idea, and a great implementation of the theme! My only issue is that the drawing mechanic feels really difficult to aim, even when I copy the gif on your page (thanks for that btw!) Maybe I just need to git gud, but It feels frustrating when I try to aim it one way and the tomato goes behind me somehow.
