The presentation is really well done! All the animations and cutscenes where great and entertaining. Def felt like an episode of Dexter's Laboratory.

Very cool game, loved all the different ways you could slow down the hero, it all felt very creative and silly
Simple, funny, and well polished. Also the art and animation is so good!
This game is so fun. It has beautiful animations, art, and music. Overall, I loved it.
The polish on this game is impressive! Probably due to the wonderful art, animations, and music (the ending theme reminds me of Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga, of all things). And I think the overall concept was a great choice for "roles reversed".
My only nitpick is that there's no way to win or keep score. I know that's kind of the whole point, but even something simple like a counter that shows how many times you've been pummeled by the hero would deepen the gameplay a lot, letting players try to beat their own personal record. As it stands, you can sit there without pressing any buttons and still get the same ending (unless there's some secret ending I never saw for getting a flawless run).
Overall, great job, I really enjoyed playing!
the hero is invincible, even when flattened, haha! The story is incredibly hilarious, and I thoroughly enjoyed the game even though I knew I would always lose haha Nice game!
The art and cutscenes were really cool, and you nailed the whole cartoon villain vibe. the game play was solid, the side scrolling was a bit too slow with would just have me waiting while the scrolling caught up.
Really liked the cutscenes, they felt very cartoon network-esc.
Great game :) Sad the villain didn't get to use his robot, damn carnivorous Hercules
Reminds me of Dexter, such a cool style! the cutscene explains the context of the game in a funny way. I love it.
This was so much fun! The stupid hero made me so aggravated with his grin, I was in the mad scientist role immediately. Great music, art/cutscenes too!
Super cool! Love the cartoonish animations only bad thing is that the stupid hero always wins
Very fun. all the expressions and effects really bring it together into a well made game.
Really fun idea! I love that from desperation the villain just starts throwing random stuff at the hero. At least that's what I was doing :P Also, amazing visuals!
