Rude Bear Reassembled by alexrose
Cut off your limbs, swap them for others, use them to fight. Go to the pig to swap your limbs for other limbs. Swap your limbs at the bull for guns.
The Dumpster Dude will save you if you die, or you don't have enough limbs to trade for another arm, or you lose your guns, but he'll charge a price, and he will claim it back.
Eyes = See further Ears = Hear music (also the cheapest and most common) Leg = Run faster Hand = Hold more guns
Bloodgun = Spam blood Bone Action Rifle = Slower rate, higher damage and impact Heartzooka = Very heavy, high impact, high damage, destroys walls
=== Controls === Keyboard & Mouse: WASD = Move Space/V = Jump 12345678910 = Equip guns to different hands Mouse = Shoot Esc/C = Back or B
=== Hints ===
If you have enough legs you can run to the east of town. Buy a gun, kill some monsters, hoard some ears, swap them for better body parts. Investing in weapons is good because you can always pick them up again. Or you can just drop them in town if you're scared. Once you have a tonne of arms and legs you can go west and storm the base and kill motherdrain.

Okay, I've read the description, sorry.
Didn't get to finish it though, those giant eyeballs are hard to kill.
Also, I like the idea that you can earn things in exchange for not hearing music.
1: grind 6 ears and an eye, buy an extra arm and a gun.
2: now at double speed, grind 12 ears for a spare leg, an arm, and a bone gun.
3: Grind ears so if you get hit you're likely to lose an ear instead of an arm, kill some leg guys for legs, kill some eyes for eyes.
4: Go back and buy 2 more arms, one heart gun and one any gun you like.
5: Go west to kill the boss
But I feel like steps 1 and 2 are too slow and boring, and steps 4 and 5 are so overpowered there feels like no stakes, step 3 is the only one that feels tense. And if you die you feel like you lost a lot of progress because you need to grind for legs and arms again. You get your most recently purchased gun back and you can go pick up the others but it's still a bit of a slog.
I'm happy with my idea but I dunno.. I feel bad about this one, I don't think I made something particularly fun. Or good. lol.

Eventually I got really strong by farming the floating ones, and I think I missed a whole part on the right that I never explored. Perhaps the boss should've been on that side. But whatever, it's fine, I had fun.
I really like the characters, they're all very unique and funny and of course limb-related. Art and music are solid as always.
Leaves only the compliments: great graphics, loads of nice puns, quite a lot of different characters and content. Losing limbs is a definite disadvantage, like it should be. Actually I didn't mind hjim losing his eyes, because he looked nicer that way, not so rude ;)
And the musics are nice interpretations of classicals.
I also like how removing body parts affects your gameplay, like how when I changed something for an eye and my field of vision got much smaller.
I'd like to see some initial dialogue to set the tone/story, though. The characters have personality, so that'd be a nice complement.
Good job!
However, I do think the sound got too loud when I was farming for ears. Maybe there should be a cap on the volume. In the end I just muted the game to avoid the insane noise.
It would also be nice to have a pause feature, but that is not quite as important.
In the end I had multiple bazookas and could just shoot down to fly. I had a lot of eyes so I knew what was where, and I just explored everything. Only then I realised I had to go west for the boss fight (it was quite easy with multiple bazookas).
Anyway, well done! :D
Other than that nice work!
