Death on Two Legs

Fun game! Has some really great personality to it. Your last jam entry and this one definitely had a sense of kinship with the whole shooting and planets vibe too. I loved the Queen reference and felt the broadcasts added some really nice flavour. I enjoyed the story and the final boss had a cool change in strategy. It was nail biting to try out-live rather than out shoot. The blackholes I felt added some randomness into the game so it was less skill based and more chill. I didn't think it was a bad thing. Just changed the gameplay a little so you would be more focused on dodging rather than precision aim. What happened to the Earth's legs afterwards? :D

It was fun game and texts :) But as I had just played before you other game this didn't feel getting on same level ^^" I liked more of the story than the gameplay itself, also sounds were bit irritating (SFX generator maybe?)

Here is gameplay https://youtu.be/-tcce30kmHI?t=3198

ps. I played second time off-stream to know what happens when you die, nice touch :D

Nice! I accidentally clicked out of the ending screen though :( Is it just a reverse of the first screen? I didn't understand the black hole mechanic until the second match, I think because the black holes are... grey.

Love the title, the graphics, the humour, and the story! It has a lot of charm and made me laugh. The planet with only one inhabitant was great, and of course Queen.

EDIT: Haha I just restarted the game to fail on purpose for the easter egg, excellent lore.

I can't say I understood everything, but I enjoyed this a lot. That death easter egg was interesting too :D

Why are planets called stars? Why legs? Is there a point to not shooting? So many questions

Edit: Thank you, that was very helpful 👍🏽

Blew up the worlds, I am a mega-slaughtermaniac :)

This game made my day, I was overly entertained with the presentation, and little precious gems

Also love the puns and the twist at the end X'D

I like how you always lean more into ideas that are ridiculous than things that are safe and obvious. This game really focuses on creating a fun environment and does it well, the little touches like the alien grammar mistranslations and notes and stuff really add to the experience. I really like the totally necessary side plot of the couple that gets separated by the world split, haha.

I wasn't totally sure about the gravitational effect of the black holes, do they fluctuate in strength? Sometimes it felt like my bullets were being curved very strongly by them, and other times it felt like they wouldn't bend much, even when passing around at the same distance from the center of the black hole.

Well this just feels like a classic Allison James game :D

Presentation was reeeally nice and I really enjoyed all the funny little details (and I probably missed some too). I really liked the foreshadowing on the final boss.

I feel kind of bad for the 15.5 quintillion dead sentient beings I slaughtered though XD I hope that one lady survived managed to escape...

Gameplay felt a bit mixed for me. I understood what the black hole was doing, but my brain couldn't process where any particular ball was going to go in time to dodge them (maybe I'm getting old, heh). I'm not sure how you'd improve that, except by making the hitbox smaller, but you definitely have enough health to weather a fair few hits, so I guess it's a wash.

The twist ending for the final battle was neat :)

It was short and sweet, but a fun experience!

PS. I uploaded a video of my playthrough

Absolutely wonderful. The combat is engaging, but I think what really makes the game work is the tournament bracket motif. It really helps sell the scenario, and give the fights some stakes. I also really liked the story with the people on the planet. A+

This game is HILARIOUS! I love it, though I did find that a lot of the enemy planets could be destroyed just by me standing still and firing and I would have loved to have seen more planets, though I love the parody nature of the game, it's a beautifully made, quick experience, nice one! :)

Woah! This was full of amazing details and interludes. I also really dug how the final boss played out. Great submission!

I enjoyed the little details like the names of the opposing planets and the tournament ladder. Charming original story and fun to play through. I appreciate the little cutscenes at the beginning and end too

That last boss was epic! 10/10 would save Earth again! After each level, I looked forward to seeing the outcomes of the other matches, and enjoyed the addition of additional black holes as I progressed. I agree with the previous comment regarding the slower projectiles- I found myself holding down the mouse button and just trying to avoid shots, and would have liked some periods of time where I could concentrate more on hitting the opponent. :)

This one was engaging and tons of fun. I found myself wishing that the projectiles would move a little slower so I could line up my shots. Nice!

This game was earth-shatteringly epic, and the bad guys were earth-shatteringly hard, I can not beat it even if my life depends on it. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed your game! Rip the CC's
