I didn't get if the game had an objective. The clock and kills kind of implied that but I killed enough to fill the entire screen and it seemed not to make a difference. Getting that many dead also made me notice that I would collide with the UI elements (clock and kills) which was sort of surprising. I think if the dead attackers were clearly lighter than the player it would have been easier not to get stuck in the mass of bodies. If not getting stuck was important to the game idea, then that would have needed some more tweaking of the stuck mechanics and the over all objective.\r\rBut all in all a quite enjoyable game."},{"author_name":"JJEvil","author_uid":"46521","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 5:01pm","epoch":1418144160,"text":"I likes it."},{"author_name":"RyanNielson","author_uid":"13891","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 5:05pm","epoch":1418144400,"text":"Nice game, a great concept and some fantastic art and sound really make this game seem quite polished. I wish the enemies damaged the player though just to make it a little challenging.\r\rThe only real issue I had with the game is that sometimes when standing on enemies the jumping didn't always work.\r\rOtherwise, congratulations on your first successful Ludum Dare.

The problem I found, though, was that it's easy to get stuck under a pile of bodies with no way of getting out! There should be something to do about that...What if the bodies 'decayed' and eventually disappeared? That would add a sort of time pressure to keep you killing enemies. Or, what if continuing to strike at bodies gradually made them disappear? I noticed there's no way to restart the game if you get into a bad spot...Not to mention, there doesn't seem to be any way to LOSE. I'd say it's a good start, though. ;)"},{"author_name":"ElectricSeagull","author_uid":"38469","time":"Dec 18, 2014 @ 12:09am","epoch":1418861040,"text":"Great concept and I really like the pixel art. \rIt kind of crashed on about 310 kills and the bodies filled the screen.\rI like the way the bodies "flow" but I think collisions could use a little tweaking."},{"author_name":"Poupi","author_uid":"30975","time":"Dec 18, 2014 @ 12:58am","epoch":1418863980,"text":"excellent, 1m38s ;)"},{"author_name":"el-pepi","author_uid":"38693","time":"Dec 18, 2014 @ 2:02am","epoch":1418867820,"text":"Nice concept.
