My one big complaint is that I wish there was some feedback when you hit the guys. Either I was consistently missing or I would hit a few times and it seemed like eventually an enemy would fall over, but there was no real feedback that I hit them in the meantime, so I couldn't tell for sure.  That would have improved the experience a lot, in the end.\n\nOther than that one big complaint, good job. It was a fun little game.

Interesting game to say the least ... It was pretty fun, the movement felt a bit crazy, and I was constantly ramping off of boxes and flying around.

Graphics were simple and you guys had nice textures on the 3D models. \nPowerups worked quite well, the lightning one was easily my favorite as I could just rapid fire them motor saws :D \n\nMovement was decent, at some times it would have been fun if the movement had also worked consistantly mid-air, but that was still good enough! A restart keybind would have also been cool haha. The enemies would also sometimes get stuck on their places as we kept getting downwards, but I activated them by going beneath them somehow lol.
