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

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.

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!

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! 

Submitted

Love it!

Funny mood :)

Goreeeeeeeeeeee. I love this game.

I really enjoyed watching the carnage, the blood effect and splatter does appear before the axe makes contact with the animals. I really wanted more, more blood and the animals falling apart etc. Unfortunately when actually trying to play this is was functionally unplayable. By the time I had seen the inputs and looked at my keyboard the timer had already run out. It was very frustrating. 

The game looks great, I love the aesthetic. But ultimately I had more fun watching this game than playing it

Honestly, this game looks amazing and plays well. Maybe one letter at a time and lean more on a rythm aspect. Besides that I love that.

That blood effect is brutal. xD

Love the original idea and artwork! Gameplay is a bit repetitive, but that's expected in a Game Jam. Great work!

Submitted

The art was very nice and the music fit perfectly, also it fits the theme well kinda made me feel bad for killing all those villagers in skyrim XD overall an awesome game!

Submitted

Really fun visuals and an original take in having to act to avoid doing something - I wish there was a bit more to do in it but such is the fate of heavily time-constrained games.

Thanks for trying the game on the stream and for the feedback. Yes, sadly time flies in jams but, that definitely would be a good improvement.
