The controls were a bit challenging at first, but nice job. Good to see another Construct users in the compo also :smile:

I was not able to play because the down arrow make made me scroll down the page. Maybe adding WASD would help

Good submission. I did find that you can complete some levels by shoving through the flesh as fast as possible and barely surviving, not sure if this was intended.

If you are having trouble with the arrow keys moving the screen down to play this, try pressing CTRL + '-' to shrink the page down til you remove the vertical scroll bar.

Other than that issue this game was very good. I think this take on the theme is unlikely to be used by anyone else. Kudos!

i love this game so much. funny concept, good execution, fun gameplay, good graphics, and pretty good boss fights? (did not expect that in a game jam). audio and better controls would have been nice but regardless, this game was fantastic

Humours game. Well done. It took me a while to figure out that I was the razor. I thought I was the pill at the bottom.

Really fun! I love the blood particles when you hit something, and that game over screen is perfect.

That last boss plays dirty! It wouldn't stop pushing me into the walls and causing damage. As a result it felt pretty good killing that last boss.

##### Go Construct 3!

This was a bit disturbing and maybe a little surrealistic :) I'm not sure whether I miss audio or not :D Anyway I like the graphics and the concept is interesting. Cool entry!

I enjoyed the gameplay, although the rapid transition from rotated to horizontal when coming to a stop is a bit annoying.

Really wasn't sure what to expect at first, but the gameplay was very intuitive, fun and the mood was just right :)

omg. This is extremely disturbing and extremely cool. I didn't read the description before I started playing so my reaction was like:

1. Oh cool art
2. Wait what's that above his head?
3. Is that a razor?
4. WHAT IS HIS HEAD DOING
5. NONONONONONONONONOONONO
6. Oh this is really fun though

Thanks for this neat experience!

Really nice mood in the game ! It's a bit strange and slighlty disgusting at some point but it shows that the the atmosphere is well done ! I was thinking it would be boring pretty quickly but the levels are actually diverse ! I also liked the graphics.
Very nice game !

Nice game guys!
It was as weird as pleasant, and I have to admit that I liked it .
Good job :)

Amazing. Very original theme/story. I loved it/was a bit disgusted. A bit difficult at first but I got the hang of it after a few tries.

Nice disturbing game ! Quite hard and bloody, the blade falls waiting for you to press the arrow keys so it just go through the body :smile:

I'm dying all the time so I could not go really far in the game, but it's impressive ! Great art and great concept :wink:

Ha, very strange but fun! You even managed to include some boss fights :D I like the idea of the "level" being the vulnerable part instead of the "player". Great job!

Uh, what? :smile: Very original take to the theme :smile: It was strangely a lot of fun :smile: If I should give some feedback - music would be nice. Also as a biologist I think it could be a little better if it was anatomically correct :angel: But that's just me, you did a great job :heart:

Very original. Good take on the theme, though the anatomy was a bit weird (teeth in his throat?). Good job on this.

Definitely a new take on the basic idea. I don't want to know how you came up with it though. Liked the bloody part. And it actually have bosses. Nice!
