This was a solid entry for the jam! The feedback on your gun was on point. It would have been nice to see more enemy variations and a shorter level before the boss. But the boss felt good and it was really nice to see alternate mechanics and even a second healthbar! Good fun entry!

The Graphics stil is simple and easy. The Gameplay is good and sometime difficult. At the End. Good Work!

The sound design (soundtrack + sfx) is excellent, a bit stressful but immersive, perfect. The simple graphics are cool, too. Fighting is really fun, the enemy AI is great. In my opinion, this was a really fun game with the best audio ever :D Congrats!

Fun game. I think it goes a little long without too much different happening. Maybe a slightly shorter level. Loved the sound effects and music. Great work.

Got to love a stickman game. Good implementation, especially with the sacrifice mechanic to gain health.

The only complaint I have is that i was using WASD, but these controls don't work when choosing to save or sacrifice a civilian. You have to switch to the arrow keys.

@renegadepunisher thanks for playing, and i'm glad you enjoyed it. Yeah about the controls, I intended it to be arrow key movement as it says in the description but while I was making it I originally put in a,w,s,d and just forgot to take it out, sorry about that. In retrospect however I do think a better option would of been to make both control schemes work the same.
