Fun concept, with a solid presentation to boot. I wish it didn't take so long to eat the fruits, but it was still fun to try and intentionally mislead the hammer.

Very high quality! If Cuphead had an arcade game this would be it! It took me a while to learn how to play but after reading the description I quickly learned! GG!
If you have time could you rate my game?
Really nice! Love the idea. It's well put together - the music, font, character. The table and holes could be better but I get it - you get 48h you put in the most important bits, the characters! The only thing that was bothersome was that the hammer had no real telegraphed movement it felt. I there would be some information about attacks, at least some, like with bosses, but it felt like I just had to kinda go on reflexes which is cool but I'd love to see some mix ups. Very solid entry! I love how clear and concise it is!
JUST BRIMMING WITH STYLE! Love the rubberhose stylings of the characters. Great work!
wonderful presentation and simple but fun gameplay, I like how the camera shifts to show how close you are to getting smashed, the presentation especially has a lot of potential kudos
Very simple but fun game with a great presentation! I believe the game could be improved if it were endless and without a time limit, and perhaps the difficulty increasing over time. Otherwise, great job!
