It's really satisfying to kill the players, though I found myself mostly just spamming boulders at them, since the fists took so long to recharge. I found the game to be a bit too easy, since my health never got very low before going back up again. Overall, though, good work!

That's a really fun concept! I think it's a bit too random right now with the characters spending a long time shooting at you from the safe area.

I love the effects - honestly with the direction and execution, your game reminds me of mine in a good way (maybe great minds think alike?)

I think defeating enemies could be a little easier. They stay protected for a long time. The time the hands take to smash again could be reduced a bit. Other than that its a great game, the art is very good!!

Very cool! Some music could have really brought the game to life, but the gameplay in itself is already great.

A really polished submission, with a really fun twist on the classic tomb-raiding genre. Nice!

The effects were crazy awesome! I think the hand smashing felt very weak for a 10 second cooldown though.

Love it!  Especially liked how all the attacks feel 'heavy'.

The feedback (with audio/screenshake) is on point, and I had fun! A dude got stuck in the pit below for a long time before he jumped out (and boulders couldn't reach him till then) but apart from that one, played smoothly too. Good stuff!

Well done! The visuals and sounds design are satisfying and polished very well for a game jam game. The dang heroes kept hiding under the center platform though lol.

I wish there was a weapon to get the players out from under the center, but the particle effects and crunchy sound effects suit the atmosphere perfectly.

Nice idea, really like the art style and the feedback from the hands. and its fun to squash the enemies. I kind of wish there was more!

I enjoyed the visual feedback for killing players, especially with the fists due to the screen shake, I felt really powerful and it was fun to play.

Pretty fun! Sometimes the players would seem to hide in places where they could not be killed, which was pretty annoying. Other then that, I really liked it, and great use of the theme!

Great use of theme. Really reminded me of the game Titan Souls. I love the art  style. The sound effects fit well. I wish it had epic boss music too. Hitting the players with rocks seemed to not kill them sometimes so ether the hit collider is not  killing them sometimes when it should or they take multiple hits which isn't obvious to the player. The game is currently too easy so you should probably rapidly increase the number of players that spawn in over time.   I would love to see this game expanded with other boss fights too.   Great job!

A simple and fun experience! The difficulty seemed to stay pretty easy for awhile which did eventually lead to me getting bored. Overall the presentation is what shined the most, and it was full of nice polish.

Nice idea, i but i didn't like the execution. The hands seem kind of useless
