There is no way how this entry has only 15 ratings, its really good!

Idea is common but its the best use of it I've seen. Its really well made too! Although it probably won't win any rankings considering how few ratings it has, this is really great!

(Tip for future jams, export as html5 because most people are too lazy to download games)

This game should have 500k votes not 14..

I love this game 5/4, I cant really give too much detail because right now is only 1 hour from the end! sorry for a short comment, I would rather play this than GTAV thats a fact!

Your game is super amazing! 

I'm impressed by everything you were able to do with the limited controls idea. The game feels and plays so good and is incredibly polished. The voice acting is really funny and fits the tone of the game perfectly. 

The only disappointing thing is that your game only has 13 ratings. It's a shame a Jam entry this good is so hidden. Maybe a web build could help draw attention in the future?

If you wanted to keep building, allowing the player to resize the window would be nice. Maybe a hidden timer that can be enabled in second runs of the game to encourage the player to replay levels to get a better time. This in combination with a ranking system such as a 3-star rank would make the game super repayable. 

Overall, quality entry and I wish you the best of luck with your future game dev!

damn, thats a good entry, implementing the missing controls into a puzzle game is working great.

All the levels are extremely clever designed and challenging. Every puzzle game lover would love this , great job from you :)

I'll be honest this was the best use of "you don't have all your controls" submissions I have played. The puzzles were extraordinarily well thought out. You interested each new mechanic effectively and combined them in interesting ways. With some visual polish this would be a a great concept for a nice little puzzle game.

The idea is brilliant and well implemented into the levels. I like how the guns have quite different purposes in the game, it makes the gameplay really dynamic. Great work for 48 hours!
