Animation work for the character was great, really fun gimmick as well. I can definitely see how he's "out of control".

Submitted

I love that run cycle, it's got a lot of personality for being 3 frames long. The music is really fitting too.

It seemed like for the first button press it'd fail you much quicker than the subsequent presses. I got used to it eventually but it does require a pretty fast reaction.

Submitted

Hilarious concept haha, and the art and music really fit the idea well. Not too much to say about the gameplay, I don't enjoy quick time events too much and I think the idea can still fit other forms of gameplay. However it's simple enough to not be frustrating, and considering it's a jam I understand going for something simple like this. All in all, great work!

Submitted

Such a great idea, with some awesome art too. The animations are just gorgeous and the feel of the game is amazing!

Hola! Es cool ver otro jueguito chileno owo. La música me gusta y calza con el juego, la parte visual se nota que tiene harto trabajo y cariño igual, está bien hecha. Un pequeño nitpick eso sí es que usan muchas fuentes distintas y algunas son pixel art y otras no, entonces no se siente muy cohesivo. El gameplay es entretenido aunque al final se pone medio brígido. Supongo que hay que getgudear nomás lol. Igual me habría gustado que la parte de "out of control" haya estado implementada de forma más directa en el gameplay, ya que ahora es más una cuestión de la historia. Buen juego tho!

Submitted

I really liked the pixel art for the game. I don't really enjoy QTE's that much, but I enjoyed the challenge from this game. Overall a neat submission

Submitted

Well done - loved the art, and the reaction timing needed was juuuust tight enough that I kept feeling like I'd miss one but then I'd get it :D

I'm not sure how much further you'd go with it, but I enjoyed it

Submitted

I love the idea, but I feel like I'm hobbible slow XD

Submitted

Really cool game ! :D

Submitted

The art is incredible! Is hard if you want to have 0 deaths. Maybe add different color for each letter to increase the arcade feel and make easier to recognize the key. Great game!

Submitted

I really liked the animations and the art, and the music chosen was quite fun. Personally quick time events are not my "cup of tea", so I'm not sure I can give too much feedback on the gameplay, other than say that the game mechanics were well communicated to the player, in my opinion, and the controls felt responsive. The art and gameplay fit well with each other, great teamwork!

Submitted

Haha, very funny game. I loved it. The sprites are great! I think it was a nice take on the theme. Good job!

Submitted

The art is awesome! The game fits the theme really well, but I think that its way too hard. (Also it took me a while to figure out what to do, but maybe that's just me)

Submitted

Cute game! The music and the art is so cute while the narrative is horrifying as hell lol.

I think that you can add some expressions of the player when yo successfully prevent your friends death, like fiercely bashing the buttons, that's what i do some times when the controls are out of control

Submitted

Very cute game. The art is great. I'm really liking the expressions on the axe guy and the pig. 

The game has the right level of challenge IMO. I was able to make it through with 4 deaths. 

To improve the game, I'd suggest:

  • Moving the button prompts closer to the pig. After the first few times, I found that I was only staring at the button prompts, which feels like a waste to the rest of the nice looking game.
  • Perhaps you could introduce a variation which requires mouse-based input. To mix up the challenge a little bit and to reduce the concentration on the button prompts.
Submitted

You guys nailed the art, to a slightly horrifying degree, really makes you feel bad killing any of the animals, very difficult to make it all the way through with zero deaths, took me more than a few tries haha, I was real invested. Excellent job!

Submitted

The look of the game is really good and gives a nice feel to the simple gameplay. Gameplay does begin to get repetitive after a while without anything to shake it up however so extra additions would've definitely been very welcome!

Submitted

Very well produced, congratulations!

Submitted

very interesting, great presentation! I liked it!
