The intro was phenomenal. From the cover art to the opening, the visuals are unique and intriguing. It's very rare to see live-action footage in a jam game, and it hooked me. Though I really enjoyed the game, I cannot help but feel that the game itself could do more to match the style of the cover art and intro, which is very striking and attention-grabbing.

One of my favorite small-type games I've ever played, with a killer intro

Fun game, I like the look and feel of it. Got spawned inside an unbreakable wall a couple of times, though. The player speed ended up getting annoying, but I guess that's part of the challenge. Besides that it was enjoyable, got a score of 350,400 on the 5 minute mode

I like the idea of game over being tied to the smiley face, and the game being spent killing enemies to ward off its arrival. It was really fun when it would appear and I'd have to adapt to it while knowing I was in the endgame. Good stuff!

Super slick game feel and presentation! I wish you could resize the window just so you don't keep clicking out of it on accident

Felt intimidated by the intro! Hotline Miami style fast paced, surprising amount of polish.

  1. ) The cover art for itch.io is so sick!
  2. ) this is addicting is so fun and fast paced i will defs be playing more to try and get a high score!
  3. ) the music is SO peak! certified bops and they fit well with the action!

My only complaints are, I sometimes spawned inside blocks and i wish there was a fullscreen mode. But seriously great game!

I wonder if we will have flying cars in 2012…
