We recommend downloading the JAR file and running it with java -jar wodewick.jar on the command line. The performance will most likely be better than in the Web version.

You can find the JAR file at

Hehe, this was real cute, good mood. I didn't quite understand what the black bar did and the hitboxes seemed a little funny but it was a fun little game

@lyon Thank you for playing our game! :-)

The black bar is the "punch power". If you make too many punches/pushes, you run out of power and need to wait for it to regenerate.

The hitboxes are circles... yep... ;-)

This is super cute! I really like the knocking away mechanic, I could see that being developed further.

This is ADORABLE! It had me giggling the whole time... I guess I have one question- When will Wodewick plush dolls be coming out and can I preorder one? I love the sound (especially the music) and the kisses when they get to close! I could see this as an app that goes viral very catchy, easy to pick up, and I constantly wanted to up my score!

the music and art were my favorite part :smile: ...tho the blank white background seemed a bit odd. a brief explanation of what the player is trying to avoid and contols would have been helpful also. nice job getting a web player version going!

Wow, me_irl has been finally expressed in the form of a game. Just kidding, no one loves me.

Grab my five stars for humour.

The idea is good and cute, the graphics look great and sharp, adorable game altogether. The gameplay was simple but got stale pretty quickly. The hitboxes were slightly funky at first but I got a hang of them later and pushing those squids away felt satisfying. I felt the enemy spawn rate could have been toned down a little bit, they swarmed me quite quickly to the point that it was impossible to survive.

It's a cool little game, short and fun. I like it ! Even if it doesn't exactly match the theme.

LMAO :D It's cute and funny. I like the idea of running out of grumpy power :D
BTW. Web version's performance seems to be pretty good here.

Hilarious! The graphics were sickeningly cute! My only problem: now everyone in my family is calling me Wodewick. I can't imagine why.

Super cute!! I loved both music tracks, loved the graphics, loved the non-violent idea (naww ungrumpy monster) and loved loved loved the gameplay! The energy meter was very well implemented, it made me choose my movements, and nevel felt unfair!

Here's my best score so far:
