I'd buy the imaginary full version of each part of this trilogy in a heartbeat.

Graphics are well made and there are quite few shader things used. I didn't manage to beat the third floor, though I got close ^^"

Well made and good way to end the trilogy :)

Your games always show this really cool level of polish that makes me reconsider what I think is possible for a game jam. You had time for cutscenes! Epic music! The gameplay itself was also really fun.

Fitting end to an epic saga. You're really good at capturing a very fast paced and action vibe in all your games. The whole vibe is just an epic scale.

I struggled a little with the controls using a keyboard. But I think it might be a little friendlier to controllers. I really enjoyed the cool weapon though! Also appreciated you added in cheatcodes to those that might not have been able to finish so they could also enjoy the story. Think that's a good plus!

Your composer definitely captured the anime vibe too :D

Amazing work. The graphics, music, sound, gameplay. It was all amazing. Loved that you got some cutscenes in there too with the opening and ending. That was great. Really impressed that this was put together in 48 hours. Nothing more to say really.

WOW. SIMPLY EPIC! Just sad it's the last in the saga, I want more! :P

Wow, what a fantastic game! From the cutscenes, to the visuals, to the music, to the gameplay, eveything here is pretty much perfectly executed. The pixel art looks great and the lighting effect is really cool. The gameplay is challenging but fair and the slime weapon is fun to use. There's nothing bad I can think to say - great job!

Great graphics! I included it in my GM48: Sixty Seconds compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/huP5ApnGTE0

Wow, so impressive! The graphics and music are outstanding (especially level 3's music... hoo boy, that's good stuff), and the gameplay is super fast-paced and challenging. The slime-throwing mechanism is something I've definitely never seen before, so kudos on that. Now I need to go back and play the first two games in the series, because I have no idea what just happened haha. Great work!

I'm sad the trilogy is over!

The art, sounds, music, style, gameplay all work so well and are polished to such high standards. I love the fact it has controller support too, enough to make me to a second run through with it anyway.

The calming music is especially great in my opnion (when you die and your buddy is talking). Also figuring out I could hold X to keep my weapon extended for longer let me time the retraction better as to get multiple flying enemies in a single swing.

The second elevator was my favorite but I also thought it was the least challenging, but I liked the idea of flipping between hiding under the platforms and then rushing onto them when the room fills from below, just the enemies here were a little bit predictable in my opinion.

Overall a very solid game, had fun with it

I think the difficulty is too high - but that might also just be me being bad at the game, heh. The flying enemy seems to get stuck quite a bit, other than that awesome job! I especially liked the grapple hook tech

absolutley loved it. the intro, music, everything was super good. the last elevator was difficult, I think it would have been better if the beetle AI was a little easier to understand. one suprising thing is that the easier AI is to understand by the player, the more fun the game is, as it feels less like the game has cheated you.

the power of democracy: so, the theme for the game jam is going to be 60 seconds. is that alright with you?

me who will be doing speedrun theme: sure.

You who will be doing ascending theme: yeah

a bunch of people who will be doing become crab: fine by us

Outstanding. The intro was especially awesome

Beautiful, simply amazing, I am in awe at this one! Fantastic work!

Really good game! The jumping was a little wonky, but everything was smooth.

Hey, I trully loved the artstyle and gameplay is solid. I feel that if the game had controller support it would be great to play. Anyway a great entry.

I really wanted to love this game. The art and sound were absolutely wonderful. The first level was a lot of fun and the weapon felt really satisfying. However, the second and third level quickly made it clear that the controls just didn't work for me at all. Specifically, having movement and aiming tied to the same input was incredibly frustrating. Coupled with enemies that moved faster than my weapon, the precision needed to hit them, and the fact that getting hit applied a knockback effect, having the level open up so that falling meant instant failure was just too much. This may be exactly the kind of thing some people are looking for, but unfortunately I couldn't get through it.

edit: I just want to stress that this was my impression immediately after playing, and fueled by frustration at wanting to finish the final stage. The game was quite compelling, so hopefully my immediate impressions are useful. Please don't take it too harshly though. The game is very solid.
