Dude this is awesome! The intro set the stage perfectly and I love the retro style of it all. Super cool that you made so much work with only 4 colors. It felt very responsive and crunchy which is perfect for a simple game like this. Nice work!

This is a great game! The gameplay is really fun, and I really like the art style. Also, the opening cutscene is very well done. The camera movement gave it so much life and personality.

Fast and Feralnice intro that tells everything you need about the story, short simple and effective, the music suits, its a great experiencie but sadly really short

Life Of Larry: Act 1Great game!
I really like the intro before the game, the frame with the rainbow and hearts for some reason reminded me of Isaac. In general, the cutscenes really break up the game, which is cool and I like it.

ghostrunner!I love this!! Really fun, really funny, really cool style. I like the art and I love the music.
The gameplay is enjoyable, albeit, without much replay-ability.
Not much to say, so many cute things in this and so many fun little details.
One single problem is the car hitbox, it should be shrunk vertically, to allow the player to run next to the cars. Otherwise, absolutely awesome game!

Veggie RunReally fun game, the music is great and I loved the sense of humor. Fun mechanic too, I had to play it a second time to figure out how to properly make use of the boost, but once I did it was really good.

Robot EscapeI love blasting through the cars :)
Could move the “Skip Intro” from the options into the main game and just hold click to skip.
The hit boxes are very unforgiving and I got stuck between the cars a lot :D
