Cute idea! It does seem like a fun thing to play with a friend once you've had too many beers. Push them off the world in game and away from the keyboard IRL? Does it have a score counter and an end state? That could be easily added anyway. Good job!

Hey Oana:) We didnt have time for score counter but it was the idea yes :D

Great visuals! Btw, is there way to fail? It seems there is endless respawn.

great idea, but it would be nice if there was a point for going on, a point where you can kill the monster would be nice or you could ad a point system and some lives.

@nuclear napalm
Its no fail state atm, we ended up with not enough time left to implement fail/win or points so its just some sort of endless runner. A bossfight would have been awesome, and I really wanted to get in more tracks(we had like 6-7 different):P

Nice aesthetics. I'm not sure what the point of the weapons was, there never seemed to be anything to fight...

Awesome graphics/music and ambience. On the other hand I couldn't try it with anyone else so I guess I'm missing the most fun part of it.

Also, when I died sometimes I got respawned on top of some flames, so I died rather fast :(

This game looks like it would be best suited for more players! I did have fun on my own, and I like the art style you guys have going for the game. I played for a while, but sort of wish there was a way to fail/win.
