Love the combination you have here! The catchy song, shoot-em up platform and art style inspired by Keith Haring?! Pretty awesome!
I must say there is something oddly satisfying standing on top of an enemy and executing them. I don't know how but all of the art and music go really well with each other and game play feel well balanced.
That's hard! But the background and music is awesome same as the gameplay, very challenging but cool game B)
Love the music baha cool game!
SPONGEBOB! You should also put horror in the tags. This scared the living sht out of me. Also, after beating the boss, I couldn’t do anything else. I supposed that there are other enemies that needs to be defeated but I cannot go up since the other platforms are too high for me to jump. Also, I dig the funky music but it’s too bad that they weren’t looped.
My first time seeing a game making use of this funky background. Very consistent and strong sense of style!
First!
