Great! loved it
thank you for the playing!
I love the weird vibe of this game and the art, concept, design, music, and SFX all kind of help add to that strange humor, so cool. The only critique I'd have is that the music is awesome but has almost no progression and get's a little repetitive. If you could add development of the piece and some sort of interactive element, even just a separate stinger/track for the ending sequence, I think it would help the game feel more immersive and playable.
Thanks for Feedback^^
Really cool game!
The art is amazing, and the sounds are so fun lol
It was difficult but I managed to see the ending! Really good job!
Glad you enjoyed it and managed to beat the game:) Thanks for kind words^^
I love the artwork so much! Y'all did a great job on it!
I had a lot of issues with the browser version, but downloading and running the .exe made it a lot better, and I managed to escape! The jump felt a bit slow but otherwise the movement was pretty good! It did look like I could jump over the cockroaches, but sadly that wasn't the case.
Great job overall! I had a great time playing it =)
I think, I got the wrong build for exe with slow and lame jump version. Don't know, if I can change it during vote period.
Thanks for feedback and kind words^^ I'll check your game tomorrow
The art in this game is really good -very intense and super difficult but fun!!! Love the music and sound design! Great job on this!! :D
Such a fun game experience! Amazing visual, pleasant color scheme, a beautiful background, and especially cool animation of the Dumb Ling (I'm really afraid of him)!
Sometimes it was difficult to notice roaches when you focused on shooting at the fat guy but lamps were quite discernable. I think it'll be good to somehow warn the player about an approaching roach.
I died about 10 times but I managed to escape and it was awesome. The game is quite juicy so that you don't get bored and the cutscene at the end is very rewarding. Seeing the Dumb Ling chewing a "Game Over" feels like a call for a challenge and ignites the desire to finally escape this Chinese restaurant.
Great job!
Thanks for kind words and feedback! I'll polish game after Jam ends and use your advices. Glad you finished it and seen cutscene)
Just watched a couple of your videos on youtube and noticed you have russian accent. Are you from russia too? If yes, it would be cool to add you in some social media. Mb, it would lead to some juicy collaborations in future. Sorry for writing here, I don't know how to PM on this site)
Yes, I live in Russia) There is no PM on itch.io. I saw your game post in the "jam-submission" section of the "Game Dev Bois" discord server. It was you? If so then I can send you a friend request.

A hard game but epicly fun!! I loved the sound effects and the art. And that man behind me was so damn horrifying. I hated him. It was scary.
Nailed the theme. NIce game
Really hard, especially the cockroach but fun game :)
Great job ! That's really polished, it looks good, it sounds good, and it's pretty responsive ! The concept is really funny, and the art style combined to the excellent sound design really make it shine !
There are still a few details that I think could be improved :
- it is hard to understand how the enemy works, without the description explaining the recoil mechanic I would have given up. Maybe making a more obvious animation when he goes back, and making him change color or facial expression the more he gets it would help a lot.
- The cockroach is very similar visually to the things you have to jump on, so I kept getting stuck by it. The balloon is great because it has a very specific color and is placed higher, if you find a similar way to differentiate the cockroach it would be perfect.
Thanks for feedback and kind words! Really good advices. I thouht about these things too, but had lack of time.
Wow super fun game !! Great visuals and soundtracks!
Really great game! The dumpling is the best!
That ass tho! ;)
Great game and seriously amazing visuals. I think some sort of warning whenever the roaches showed up would have been nice because it felt impossible to react to them in time. The game felt very polished overall, amazing job!
Amazing entry, was pretty fun and ran very well overall. There is only a small delay when pressing jump before the character actually jumped. I really liked that artstyle.
YOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooo
Delay is some random browser issue, I guess. Some has it and some hasn't. Thanks for kind words^^
Cool game, art, music and gameplay. It was hard at the start, but then i figured out how to manage it :)
Tough cookie!
the game is great. my only problem is the jump delay .
There is no jump delay or any input delay in code at all! Don't know why it feels for you this way, I'm sorry (It's really saddens me)
Very well done! Love the art
Very nice! Love the artstyle and the juiciness of the gun. Small delay with inputs, though, but other than that well done!

Might be a browser thing then, dont worry about it. :)
Super juicy! Everything looks awesome
the deal is completed. nice jam entry by the way.
