I think the idea of cleaning up after a shooter is brilliant. There's a couple of speed cleaning games out there, but with a shooter you're not cleaning a random crime scene, you're cleaning someone else's fun. That could lead to some biting commentary, which is always promising.

Great job!

More than cleaning up after a shoot I feel I'm cleaning up after a war.

This is my kind of game! I love to efficently speedrun the warming up and preparing of my pasta meals in the most efficent way, and this game reminds me of that. I had a blast!

P.S. I also like how this game didn't just go "Other game but roles reversed" and how the music gets more intense during the cleanup.

Developer

Hahaha :D Thank you very much for playing!

Altough I feel like my implementation of the theme came out alright, I still struggled to find any interesting idea for quite a while. ^^

Wow. Great game! The story was funny and it was also fun to watch the characters attack each other. The idea is very nice and I like that the music changes between battle and clean up. One wish is that new things would be added throughout the game. I appreciate that the trash can and spray is used by clicking while the mop is dragging. It's cool that the text is moving. The game has good difficulty scaling. Good job!

Thanks for playing! :D

I totally agree that there should be more tools and stuff to clean up, or at least that the existing tools get unlocked sequentially.

I struggled with the theme quite a bit, so I'm happy I managed to get at least 3 tools in. ^^

What a fun experience! I don't really have anything negative about this game.

It's fast, fun and we finally get to know how the mess gets cleaned!

Thank your for playing! :D

Looking at it now, I am reasonably happy with how I implemented the theme, but it was quite difficult for me to come up with anything fitting.

I suspect most people find this one more difficult than others. Altho it still is an assumption ofc.

Really nice, simple but effective game with a fun concept. One of the more polished end results I've played thus far. Good job and congrats!

Thank you very much! :D

I love the idea and the little bot at the beginning was super cute.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! :)

Yeah, I was going for the "Its angry but too cute to be taken seriously" vibe with that, glad to see that it worked! ^^

Great concept, really like it. Quick and easy to grasp.

Developer

Thanks for playing! :D

Nice to hear that you liked it!

Really neat game, love the concept. Totally different genre but have you heard of Serial Cleaner? Kinda has the same idea of cleaning up bodies and stuff.

Developer

Thanks for playing the game! :)

I have actually never heard of Serial Cleaner, but after looking it up it sure looks like my game was inspired by it. ^^

wow what a brilliant game! 

The UI looks awesome, the art is clean, the sounds fit perfectly and the concept is just so much fun.

I would  love to see more content being added! 5/5

Developer

Thank you very much for playing the game! :D

I'm still thinking of content I could add after the voting phase.
