Fun entry! If the mechanics were a bit more refined, this could actually be an entertaining and unconventional shooter.

Enjoyed the game.  Cut scenes made it and were funny!

Most enemies, although shooting, ignored the player.  Standing behind a table or a metal shelve makes it bullet proof.  Maybe the 2nd boss should have done that. :)

Great work with the cutscene animations. I would have liked more challenging gunplay, but it was certainly fun. Thanks for making.

If this was called the comedy jam... you have already won the competition sir :D It was fun!

Narrative was funny and entertaining. Gameplay-wise, I thought the enemies were a bit too spongey and the controls a bit to snappy and intense, but otherwise, a cool entry for sure!

Narrative was fun and entertaining. It's a great starting point, has a little bit of everything. With a bit more polishing, it has great potential. Good job!

Submitted

Dude, you are the type of person I  would love to work with! I love the enthusiasm and commitment to this game jam! Well done and I  rated your game high!! Easily one of the top 3 I  have played so far and you still have so much you could add on or update for future games. Great job.

Pretty fun and humorous!  I found the mouse look sensitivity too high but what can you do?  Ducking enemies couldn't take damage.  Overall good job!

I liked the humor and fourth wally aspect. I think the black and white looked good. The aim sensitivity is too high. The enemies felt like bullet sponges taking most if not all of a clip. Nice that you got in multiple levels.

I laughed a lot  ! thanks :)

Finally, a shooter game I can finish! Loved the ending... though... I did have to leave the game open a minute to see if it was really the end, or if there was a hidden thing like in a marvel movie.

PD: If you continue with the game, put subtitles on it because I’m not English and it’s a shame I couldn’t follow the story.

Submitted

It’s a very original and powerful game. I recommend you follow the story, which has a lot of potential. With time, you can improve the animations.

Good work.

This was great! Really funny - gave me Rick and Morty vibes mixed with some Strongbad style humor. Nice work on the animations! That car chase scene was THRILLING! Can't wait for episode 2!!!

Thanks for checking out the game! Your feedback means alot to me ❤️

Rick and Morty and High On Life were big inspirations for this game, just cause it showed me its all good poking fun at the fact that this is all just a game for fun. 😄

When is episode 2 coming out? Who needs GTA 6 when we have this literal MASTERPIECE hahaha. Had a blast with this one. the voice acting took me by surprise and I thought it was a fantastic addition. 

Developer

Haha I really appreciate it! The voice acting was a last minute idea, and I will say I might as well just voice over every game ever (Kidding of course). 

Thanks for giving my game a try it really means the world to me! 😄

Submitted(+1)

Really clever and entertaining.. and funny. I'd play more levels for sure. Great job!

Enjoyed this one a lot.  The car chase scene reminded me of Lucky & Wild

Developer

Thanks for trying it out! I really appreciate it! 😄
