It's time to Whac-A-Something!

In this thriller of a game, you play the role of a giant metal hammer sent to crush everything! Hit anything that pops up with extreme prejudice to win!

Whac-A-Something features two modes: minute mode and endless mode! Play minute mode if you just have, well a minute! Endless mode can go on forever, but don't expect to last forever!

This was built by LPGhatguy and Cassassin!

Haha, nice! I did like all the little animals and their poor looking after a nice treatment with the two-handed hammer :D
Good job!

I accidentally whacked a kitty and I cried. No puppies to whack either. Nice debug window :D

You made me wack a panda, a penguin and a gnome and i feel like a terrible persona after playing your game :(
Fun, tough!

When I started the game I was like "cool, I didn't see this kind of game in a while", but when I saw the shoe I say "WHAT THE ..." and laughed a lot. Very fun game, very nice art, really matching audio. Nice job!

Funny take on the theme.:) I just have to say, I really felt bad for hitting the cats and pandas!:D But it's a fun and colourful game. Could maybe use a little original element, which would refresh this well known concept.

Nice little game, so many things to whack! Wasn't really clear what it was that caused me to lose lives though.

@LandoSystems, anything you miss causes you to lose a life, which means you have to whack everything you see (yes, even the cute things!)

Controls are very responsive. Should I be concerned that I took great pleasure in giving out broken limbs to small animals? I also like how hitting a pumpkin turns it into a pie. Good job!
