Court Date by sillyman987
You are a criminal. Well, sort of. See, all you did was accidentally kick an officer in the shins while trying to ride past him on your skateboard. Now the judges, lawyers, police, and military are summoning you to appear in court so you can face justice for your "many horrible crimes" as they put it. Well of course you won't put up with that, so you now have to escape from the many waves of enemies. (Don't Die!)

What I liked:
- Humor a lot.
- The setting and the controls.
What i disliked:
- Lacking atmosphere bc of Sounds (punshing feedback), more click sounds on throwing a punch. Some kind of death Sound.
- Bug, when you face down and left click, you throw a punch with right.
- Enemy variance in mechanics.
Punches would feel more satisfying with some kind of sound effect. Level progression would feel more satisfying with new backgrounds.
Music is nice and chill. Pretty unique.
The bad: I really dont like the controls and the fact that you have to hit with the right side of your body. The punches could instead land where the mouse is aimed? Or at least the hand could be selected that way.
I also noticed that when you walk downwards, your right hand is still on the right side of the screen, which is a bit confusing indeed.
Did find a few bugs - somewhere around level 4 I stopped being able to throw projectiles. I also ended up dying on the final level and when I clicked Begin it just gave me the You Escaped screen.
Still a good framework and I liked the concept of throwing punches with the mouse while walking around with WASD.
Nice job. Keep on making stuff!
Generally speaking, AI assistant and “co-pilot” tools can be used without restriction, but you should opt-out of categories where a content generator did most of the work. Typically this is the Graphics category, but it may include other categories."
If an AI generated the music, it's still required that you opt out. I am sure you can find musicians to join your projects in the future. There are a lot of them around.
