Great work! It was shorter than expected, but the artstyle was nice and vibrant.  The animations were very good, too. Platforming felt natural.

Keep it up!

Really loved the idea and the art. A bit more contrast between the level and the background would have been good and few more sound effects, but rather than that, I liked playing it. Well done!

wish this game was longer because it was pretty well done! movement felt nice, really snappy jumps too! nice size bullets for shooting the enemies too! Not sure it relates to the theme at all, but still a fun little game!

I'd appreciate it if you could play/rate my game as well! :)

That was faster then expected.
Shame, because the jumping was really snappy and the death animations were really cool too. Give the gun a faster fire rate, or bother to make a level and this can really go places. Those feel good Contra clones (like broforce) are a ton of fun, so it's kind of a shame this one cuts of so quickly. And... as much as it was hilarious, there's not much in there apart from this one big plot twist.

This game is really funny, and I also enjoy the death animation. Art reminds me of Broforce.

LIked the looks and the ambience of the sound effects. Gameplay wasn't innovative, but you can never go wrong with a plaftormer. Liked the ending.

The art is AMAZING! Reminds me of a game on the NES called Contra! 

I wished I could just spam the gun more! felt more like a pistol than the tommy gun I was holding.

I liked the part were it tells you "They lied" I laughed at that for a good while!

Maybe some fast paced background music just to get you into the raging mode to stop the war!

Fun game!

The game has amazing graphics, but needed better level design and better enemy AI, I would have loved it if the enemies could shoot me even if I was in the air, and follow me up blocks, then I would have to fight them.

Looked good, controls were ok, and i didnt get much challenge from the game. i wish the game was longer so i could play more! I also didnt find a way that the game related to the theme but cool game dude.

short game good graphics,

although i understand the "short game" is less is more but i think in this case more might have been more but i get if you didn't have much time to make a larger game and this is all you could do than ya less is more.

Thank you for the suggestion!

I liked colorful graphics with dithering, and all the mechanics seem polished. Too bad the game is so short, and there is not much gameplay (also, i coudn't find any usage of the theme, if it is there please explain). But generally good work if you've got only 3 days!

Thanks for the compliments and for downloading our game! On the Theme issue, we tackled the concept of "short game" explained in the Theme Reveal video...
