I like the theme of trolls and I like the cartoony art style.
I just wish the troll had more than kicks to offer those horrible creatures because it gets repetitive.

Hah, cool. A little hard at times to see if you're too close to the edge, or aligned with the correct enemy though. But was fun!

Tons of fun! 64 kills. Fell off the bridge :( Gets really intense. Music is awesome and I love kicking cats. Great job! :D

35 kills. Fell off the bridge frequently. Alignment is the hardest part, but I'm okay with touchy mechanics.

Like deathray said, I'd love to hit a double-bunny combo.

I liked the art style a lot! However there always seemed to be a delay between my key presses and the actions. The kick is really slow, but that wouldn't be a problem if the kick could hurt the animals throughout the motion.

Besides that little nick pick it was a pretty solid game. I liked the fact that you could fall off, it made me very nervous about going near that edge.

28 Kills ^^

Fun game! The left/right moving thing was kind of weird though, as I constantly missed my kicks even though it looked like I was right in front of the enemy.

Great idea! Funny sound and good music. Unfortunately, I too often fall off the bridge :)

Really enjoyed the graphical style of this.

I too fell off the bridge :P

I don't think it was that obvious where the hitboxes of the badguys were, but it was an amusing game.

Pretty good, but it's tricky to line up to kick and a bit too easy to fall off the edge (maybe play an animation when the player is right by the edge, trying to balance).

Those kitty cats are sneaky! Cute game. :)

I feel like the troll should either be able to fall off both sides of the bridge, or neither side.

Very cool idea! The animal-graphics are excellent :D Its a bit tricky, that the bridge is only secured on one side, but thats ok for a troll bridge ;)

I'm loving the beat, makes me want to kick forest critters too! It was kind of hard to determine the kick hitbox, might be too small based on the animation. Overall, cool graphics and a pretty fun game!

Kicking animals off of your bridge sounded fun, but it's rather finicky and hard to tell when you're kicking an animal or not.

Delays on the controls made it a little hard to get to grips with, but definitely enjoyed the presentation scheme with this. reminded me of some doodles you'd see from school, had that child-like art feel :D.

A little repetitive, the kicking area is a bit strict, the sounds were a bit annoying and falling off the bridge is a bit too easy, but the graphics were nice and brought in a few laughs.

That's not how a rabbit sounds, he he he! :)

Lovely cartoon style, the music supports the fast paced action, and I laughed when the troll fell off the bridge. Good job!

Nice idea and simple implementation. A little hard to know where are the things exactly but it doesn't matter much. Funny gfx and goon music. Thank you!
