I like how you added in the sound effects to make it really feel like Batman. Fighting and moving seemed kind of clunky and felt slow, but nice game.

great spoof! really fun vibes :)
the fighting mechs are kinda clunky and the headbutt animation is a fun idea but looks too much like he's getting hit in the gut so it was a bit confusing at first.
still if was pretty fun to play, great job!

I definitely feel like I'm in a campy Adam West era Bat...er... Fatman episode. Love the art and sound effects! I did find myself getting rather frustrated at times with the fighting mechanics, but overall had a good time with this one. Great job!

Nice pixel art and retro sound effects. The styling on the text does not match up with the pixel art though. There doesn't seem to be a way to win (I guess that makes it endless?). Can't really get the feel of the fighting mechanics as it seems that the enemies have their way more often than not.

love the game and the 80s feeling (I think this is an honest opinion but I'm also a personal friend of the author)
