For your first game this is pretty amazing! I really liked the talking sounds of the guy and the visuals were goofy but in a way that boosted the style of the game. I thought the dialogue was pretty funny since the guy was being introspective and deep which contrasted with how he spoke. The gun jamming and him switching to a knife was also humorous. Everything worked great as well, I didn't notice any bugs. Great job all in all!

Excellent work for your first game. Gameplay was fun and graphics were appealing. I like to find the bounds of a level when I'm playing and I fell into the water for this and died haha. Overall great little game. Congrats on your entry!

Developer

thank you :)

Yay, I saved my puppy! I wasn’t gonna leave him. I managed to find three endings, I hope I didn’t miss any. The only thing that felt a bit weird was seeing the arm shadows before I even had the gun or the knife, because I didn’t understand what they were. Keep up the good work and congrats on the entry! :D

Developer

yes that was all of the endings. the 1 actual ending, and the 2 death screens, 1 by water and 1 directly by the croc.

thanks for playing :)

oh yeah the shadows did look weird cuz you have 3 arms and 3 pieces of equipment lol! (there's a flashlight at the beginning. it's just optionally pulled up by using F, but is replaced by the knife later on)

Seeing the screenshots of your progress made your game one of the ones I was most excited about and I am not disappointed!
I liked the humor, the choice of colors, the three endings, and the atmosphere of the game.

I really saw myself as when I walk my dog and he wanders off a little too far (fortunately, I never had to become John Wick like in the game). 

Like I said, I have only one negative point and I will repeat myself until you understand... NEVER CALL HOBO STUPID AGAIN!!!!
