The game is pretty solid. You should fix some bugs in the movement but in overall is a good game. Well done!

A cool idea with neat and snappy visuals that amounts to a solid game.

Solid with controller. very satisfying throwing yourself around.

found a small bug in movement. if you walk down along a wall and the wall ends you start walking mid-air.

aside from that no complaints :)

This the best slug flinging game I've ever seen. But seriously even in this broken state your game is hillarious.

This is great! If the movement was fixed it would be the commercial quality!

Can't wait to see a post-compo version :)

Difficult to rate as it's local multiplayer, but very interesting and fun. The flinging using a controller feels very natural, maybe one to port to Ouya?

Did you implement alternative controls? I would like to play it but I don't have a controller.

A keyboard build would have been great too! Looks cool though!

Pretty fun mechanic, in need of some serious bug fixing and polish, however

Loved this game, one of my favourites so far with really great mechanic. The flick was such a fun movement just enjoyed flicking myself around even without an opponent. Would be great to see a post comp version with the bugs ironed out and enemy AI. Great job though, will definitely be playing this more.

some bugs of collision. But good start for a cool multiplayer game...

Thanks for the feedback! I'm working on an updated build with new collision, and wall climbing, and bots, and different gameplay modes.

Wow, this is fantastic. First game on the controller that worked better than I expected. The flick action was rad tastic! Fix a few bugs, add some AIBotSlugs and BAM! Game I'd buy and play to kick the crap out of my friends. Even better if you get it multiplayer on the internet. I could see an epic steam battle for an hour. Also, let me mod something simple about my slug. Like pick a color or give me a hat.. or a knife... :D
