Good design, very satifying.  The gameplay loop is small, yet engaging.  

Submitted

Very interesting and original game ;) even though the difficulty curve is very abrupt, its deffinetely very fun! Love the attention to detail, suc as deiifernt coins for how many enemies you kill at once (Storytime: I once killed everybody with one bomb, pretty far in the game and I am very proud of it :) )

Submitted

First of all, I think those are the most amazing enemies I've seen in the jam. Second of all, this a a great game and I loved the bomb mechanic. Overall, well done!

cool little game youve got here

Submitted

I've played many "one weapon" games so far, but the fact you're proposing to play with a bomb is a really good twist on that. In fact, it gives the players 3 things to do instead of 2: setting up the bomb, exploding it, then retrieving it. 

Moreover, knowing you were alone on this and seeing how good looking the game is, I must say I'm impressed. You did a really fine job, here.

Really nice game! The idea is interesting, and the head as a weapon and pick-up actually serves as a nice bit of dual-purpose design! The only thing I can critcise really is the fact that the enemies acually pathfind around walls, along the shortest path, wich makes it pretty unintuitive to judge their behaviour. But that is really a minor point.

Very nice game! I liked the combo system where multiple kill = more score. The idea is very funny and I liked how you ramp up the difficulty by placing walls. Thank you for making this game, I had fun playing it!

music deserved 15/15 ..unique fun addictive game...

A great game. I got a high score of 1,268,000 and had a lot of fun!4.66... stars (removed 1 star in adherence to the theme since it is a little bit loose. It was really had, since I felt like you deserve 10/5 stars).


EDIT: played it some more and got a high score of 2,244,000

this game is really fun. the game has good looks and sound. the music is also good.

i like the creativity. it feels wacky, and i like it. the controls are good and simple. the rooms are a bit to small for the last waves, which spawn to much enemies for the room. talking about enemies, they are way too slow, and not really fun to fight. i'd suggest adding more types, like a fast one and a shooting one.

this  would make a great mobile game.

I love the upbeat style of the game. Nice work!

Yeah, interesting idea! The game was a bit difficult though.

Submitted

Hah, this was fun! A solid and original game! I really liked the disco theme!

Submitted

I really love the graphics with this one! Such fluid animation, great color choices, and just overall a fun theme! Simple, fun and addicting! Great game!

Submitted

That's a cute and funny game ! I would have loved more ennemi types that do more than just follow you. The graphisms and musics are really cool. Nicely done, keep going !

Submitted

5/5/5 For the jazzy saxophone sound when you die :b

I really enjoyed playing this game since it had a nice blend of action and strategy.

Good job and I'm looking forward to see if this will expand into a bigger game!

When I saw the jams theme, I fought about making a only one resource type of game, where you have to continously collect your resource again, but decided against it. It feels very nice to see somebody else execute this idea so perfectly!

Using your head to kill multiple enemies at once feels very statisfying, but this game also shows the negatives of seek only AI behavior. Since I wanted to group them together for maximal points, I always ended up sticking towards corners and walls, thus feeling very claustrophobic. I wonder how the game would play, if the area would be infinitely big. 

Still awesome twist on the genre and very well executed!

Submitted

Nice concept. Didn't get very far but I like it.

Submitted

The game is great! From visuals, to the sound, to the overall design! One of the best I've seen so far!
