Well it was literal but it can only be fun if there was variety in the levels not just reskins. Other than that it proved its point and stayed true to the comic. Anyway one thing I do want to mention is I'm doing a review of design on the games in this jam so here's a shameless plug to my channel if you want to be notified of the vid when released: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7Vj46GGL9VMUvd4YTMtjXg

Well, I'll give it some credit. It is a literal translation of the comic. But, it's the same exact level using the same tactics, just with different appearances. Perhaps if you want to expand this, made each level have it's own enemies and tactics.
