Funny audio, simple and short but well executed.

nice ! would be cool if you could actually survive by dropping the bomb in desserted area and hope no people will be there when it explodes.

The audio is incredible and worthy of a gold star by itself. But as a whole, this game unfortunately has its weaknesses. I'm not going to lie, I had no idea as to what to do. I didn't see any explanations, and unfortunately there isn't any details on your entry page. I would recommend informing us of simple controls and game mechanics to give players a sense of direction. I'm not sure why there was an online multiplayer element, but regardless, the graphics and audio were pristine.

You may want to add instructions, and some more special skills (like shouting 'run' or 'help me' to repulse/attract others)
Sound is awesome, graphics are great
Maybe use a newspaper with text depending of game (hero/terrorist , victims...) as ending screen to be more coherent with startup screen

Overhall : good job !

It's a clever idea, topical but not politically correct which is why it's so funny. Simple and Original - well done!

simple, yet a little more wouldn't do bad, like power-ups or special locations to hide the bomb

Fun game to play, the audio is well done however an instruction would be nice as I'm a bit confused what to do at first

Animations and sound effects really make it. It needs something to give it more depth, though perhaps I missed something: was the chat box part of the game?

Great music, and overall everything had a cohesive aesthetic - rare for LD! ;)

Wow, that was so funny and original ! I LOVED the fact that you could be either a terrorist OR a hero, giving 2 different meanings to the theme in one game (even though, for some reason, the game always think I'm a terrorist... Come on, people see me with a bomb and run towards me, that's not my fault =p !). You couldn't fit the theme better. I enjoyed plying the game and the aesthetics are really nice. Good job !

But... Why is there a chatbox ?
