Unique idea, this is on the same level of uniqueness as the game where you throw babies into the fire

Unique concept. I was a little sad killing those bunnies though, haha. I think the game could have some kind of risk or a sense of urgency of sorts, because there is no danger per se. Some other considerations:

  • As other people mentioned, there could be some adjustments to the hitbox
  • Jumping (and the platform up there) have little use in the game

Other than that, the visuals are good, and so is the music. Good job!

A moment of silence for the dead rabbits... and the knight who drowned in their blood.
This was certainly a unique idea XD

Fun game even tough its a bit cruel to kill the rabits! But there is a "bug" that you die even if arent covered in blood (by standing on the platform) im sure that you already noticed it yourself but I wanted to say it nevertheless.

Developer

Actually forgot about that :D Thanks for mentioning

Nice music and art - slightly gruesome but cool idea. The movement feels nice, if a little fast, and the bunnies look cute and cuddly and move in accurate bunny fashion. As firebelly said a bigger hitbox would be good, and to make the game more challenging over time I think you should start with more bunnies then decrease the number so that you have to chase them around. And definitely make it so that the bunnies run away from you instead of coming towards you (not because that makes it easier but because i feel rlly bad killing them when they are all trusting to me D; )

Thanks for the feedback. 


At first I had different idea, that level will fill up with your blood instead of bunnies blood. So I made that enemies come towards you and try to damage you, but I wouldn't have made it in time so I just changed enemies to bunnies :d

we've all been there D;

There is a good foundation here. Here are a couple critiques:

  • Add juice! Juice alone would improve the game substantially
  • Increase the hitbox size for the player swing, I feel like I missed bunnies when I shouldn't have
  • Either add a healthbar for bunnies or make them all have 1 HP
  • Introduce some stakes into the game - right now I can just choose not to kill bunnies and nothing happens. I think you could add some time pressure or other incentive for killing bunnies

Those are my opinions, with a couple of tweaks this game could be a very fun arcade-style game!

Developer

Thanks for the suggestions, I will try to update this game then. But what do you mean by saying Add Juice?

I mean animations like squash and stretch, particles effects, camera shake, that sort of thing!

Nice, but it's kind of hard to hit the bunnies sometimes
