I like the concept and it controls pretty well. The art is a bit rough but there is a lot of personality there that makes up for it. Here are some things about it that could be improved:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>1) It's pretty much impossible to enemy's attack. Your attacks seemed to stop their attacks but because you have to wait a long time before each attack, sometimes you just can't avoid being hit.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>2) There should be some sort of health pickups. Especially since you have to start from the beginning every time you die.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Overall, pretty good job!"},{"author_name":"freeholdgames","author_uid":"52756","time":"May 7, 2015 @ 1:13am","epoch":1430960880,"text":"Fun little entry, would have liked a stronger puzzle aspect to selecting which curse to use against which enemy."}],"images":["ld32\/25025-5569c96069b751a741b8649af5c522a5.jpg","ld32\/25025-c322bec18db60b4af5b7b96a205df923.jpg","ld32\/25025-b3000fd0d77310664e18e42d0d988dc9.jpg","ld32\/25025-98b34ab7fca0ec9060f5428ecb626798.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/sbarrio.info\/games\/ld32\/index.html","text":"Web"},{"url":"http:\/\/sbarrio.info\/games\/ld32\/flash\/CurseMan.zip","text":"Flash"},{"url":"http:\/\/sbarrio.info\/games\/ld32\/mac\/CurseMan.zip","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"http:\/\/sbarrio.info\/games\/ld32\/linux\/CurseMan.zip","text":"Linux"},{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/sbarrio\/CurseMan","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"10782","g_author":"25025","g_event":"LD32","g_eventkey":"27","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"10816","g_title":"CurseMan","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"859","g_commentcount":"27","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/25025-shot0-1429479723.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/25025-shot1-1429480626.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/25025-shot2-1429479723.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/25025-shot3-1429480592.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Help CurseMan get back home!\r\nUse your swear words to fight everybody else!\r\nLearn new swear words to fight up against tougher enemies!\r\n\r\n--- CONTROLS ---\r\n\r\nLeft\/right arrows - Movement\r\nUp arrow - get into buildings\r\nSPACE - Jump\r\nA, S, D, F - Swear word attacks (available when learnt)\r\n\r\nLearn new swear words at different buildings.\r\n\r\nTIP: If you are having trouble defeating your enemies try exploring the map in different directions to find more powerful swear words!\r\nTIP 2: There are two different endings!\r\n\r\nNote: Web version is flash based.
