Please tell us what you think of the game; use of the words "compelling" and "cinematic" are already assumed in your reviews.

The animation and controls feel kinda clonky, and the game gets really hard really fast.

Well thanks to all the judges for their efforts - I focused pretty hard on getting the game finished but I ran out of time to actually polish it up.

Still it was a fun comp so I hope you all enjoy breaking your keyboards in frustration for the first few times and then moving on with your lives

Well, at least the game is finished. The instructions got my hopes up but the game is pretty unforgiving.

I gotta agree with Kelly Zmack on this one.

This would have certainly been better if it wasn't so impossible, something that could have easily been achieved in one of two ways: reduce the rate at which Imps spawn or give them less health. You did do a great job of incorporating ZP jokes into the game in a way that didn't feel contrived or tacky, though, and the presentation is fantastic. You really nailed the proportions of the characters, something just about everyone else has failed at.

EDIT: Despite the merciless difficulty, I'm finding this oddly addicting. So far my max score is 7300 and something.

ANOTHER EDIT: 12250! I'm a lost cause! Huzzah!

hahaha Thanks stranger (that sounds oddly appropriate)

I really should have made a difficulty setting for the game to make the learning curve more gradual

Yeah, this game has a few flaws that ruin it. One, it's too hard, I think the starting weapon should have some range, at least. Two, you should be able to jump throught the platforms, you can easily get stuck. Three, I expect to jump with the up key if I walk around with the left and right keys. Four, frustratingly hard. Each is a small flaw, but together they add up to destroy it. Very interesting concepts, especially the 'frustrating camera' and 'X-Death'.

This game's difficulty is set at Impossible from the get-go, not only do the imps gang up on you in force, but the other killers then use that to their advantage, i was barly able to survive 30 seconds, the tutorial was way more interesting then the game, especialy since i did not survive long enough to use most of the power ups, worst game ives ever played.

I made it to a rank higher than "Pants-on-head Retarded" I got to "A Lost Cause"
