It's funny and looks great, and it's rare to see a LD game with an actual storyline. It would be nice if the enemies had less HP, though.

The game surely is peculiar. The graphics are exceptional, by far one of the coolest looking games around. Solid controls, an unlikely character thrown in a plot to save the world, a great game overall, although the enemies were a bit too much on the overpowered side, even my best weapons barely scratched any enemy I fought.

Please don't force me to install Ludum Dare games. It just adds a ton of extra work for me to uninstall after playing.

Pretty weird game, I like it but more options for the controls would have been great... S to jump is damn strange

Oh man it made me so happy when I saw the protagonist in his cute fluffy unicorn suit. I love the drawings you put together and it was pretty funny. You did a great job on all the particle effects and rainbows. Great job!

Fun game,but the enemies have so much health. At first i didn't know to hit enter to start, but i figured it out eventually (I might just have missed something)

Second attempt at the final boss: "FATAL ERROR in action number 1 of Step Event0 for object Obj_Enemy2". I'm too awesome for my archnemesis.

This game was... weird. But fun. Monster HP is a bit high though. Platforming worked nicely. Looks good. Good job!

Nice game dude! Pretty fantastic, colorful and with lots of humor :)

Just get some trouble with the controls. Also, maybe a standalone version could be cool (with no installation).

Keep the good work!

Very funny game, but really hard to play. I have the feeling my mecha robot unicorn is made of paper :D.
