I can feel the Undertale influence here!
Great job for doing all the art and animations by yourself!
It's not an easy task, but you did a great job!
Well done!
I am glad you noticed Undertale influence in my game, Undertale is indeed one of my biggest inspirations :)
Thank you so much, the animations were really taking too much time to make, but it is nothing if you like it :)

Nice game.
Sound setting bugged. If you access the setting again or click the credit, the sound settings will reset to 0. So in order to avoid this problem, I had to set the sounds and start the game.
I didn't play until the end because I'm not available after this.
Yeah, unfortunately I noticed that late, it will be fixed in the update coming out after the finish of ratings!
Thanks for your feedback DRAKOSEA!
Well done
really liked the story and gameplay! had alotta fun!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!
I really enjoyed your game Abdo! All the handcrafted visuals were so cool looking and I can't believe you created all that with the number of animations you had as well! The story was very meaningful to me because I have a young niece who is like a daughter to me and so it put me in the mindset I was throwing rocks to save her. The multiple endings had me replaying to see what else you had animated in there as they were all so beautifully done.
The controls for the arc felt very nice and it was satisfying to hit the enemies with a well-placed chuck. Fantastic submission!
I am very happy you appreciate my art work since it was really taking forever haha. I am glad you liked the story either and that it was meaningful for you, bless your niece :)
I am glad you liked the gameplay overall, this makes me happy, I will make the game better very soon in the next update :)

I love the undertale part when you lose
Finally someone noticed the similarity to Undertale! Well, Undertale is my biggest inspiration in game developpement though :)
I am glad an Undertale fan liked my game, that makes my game seem better : )
Btw, did you notice I am using Sans sound with lower pitch?
Awesome job! I liked the enemies in the game they were really cool looking! A nice game with good controls that are simple to pickup and enjoy but tough to master.
Excellent!
Thank you so much, I am glad you like the monsters, it was painful to draw and animate all those haha>
Your game looks fun, I am gonna check it out :)
The gameplay, wave system and increasing difficulty with each wave are good. The art is cute. Good job!
Thanks for your feedback, I am glad you love it!
The gameplay loop is good. The story and endings compliment it well. Good job!
The gameplay feels very nice. I like how you have to anticipate the arc of the throw. Powerful story too. Good job!
Thank you so much, I am happy you loved the story and the gameplay!
Your game is cool as well :)

Throwing stones has never been so meaningful ;^;
I liked the art, throwing stones felt nice and weighty.
Good job!
Nice time! Like the multiple endings based on how far you get concept
Glad you played the game this far :)
Awesome game! Love the touching story! It would be awesome if you put more stuff like this online!

I am going to check your game now :)
Enjoyed playing this, liked the multiple endings. Didnt complete the game tho. Sometimes the arrow for the aim would disappear if mouse was too low, and would be nice to adjust the angle until I left go of the button... maybe speed up the shooting and reloading
This is some very useful feedback, guess what, your feedback affected the game update that I just finished, and it will be released after rating period! You may follow us to receive the new update when it comes out :)

I liked the pixel art style and animations !
The only complain I would have is that in kinda feel slow to go through a wave
Thanks mr. Pectorel, I am glad you liked the pixel art style and animations since they was the things that took the most time to do.
