A fun mini game, but that's all it seems to be is a mini game. I enjoyed the concept, the gameplay, and I love the "Alien Hominid" type effects for the last boss, along with some great music that really set the mood for it. Although, I do agree with Terrible50, in that it was too short, and I agree with Monako that it seems like it would be a portion of a bigger game. I took notice to your achievement names showing each monster represents a different mental illness, very clever. And it has that dark and twisted fun everyone enjoys. I look forward to any expansion you may try to make on this idea.

Glad you like it man, thanks for the feedback. As I said below, we might consider making a larger game.
Interesting game, it has a unique battle system.
The character moves a bit too slow for the game area and is too big, make him half, or at least, two-thirds the size he is now.
samulis responds:
Character movement is not an issue honestly... all enemies are either dodgeable or outrunable.
Well, this game turned out to be harder than I thought. I was originally thinking it was a platform game and you were supposed to go from one place to another. It turned out to be something much harder, unfortunately. I do think it's cool to have a game where you're in an asylum. You'd think those places would be without harm. It seems like there should have been fewer of those enemies.
I thought I was being timed for the game, but there were no numbers on board. I assume you just keep on playing until you win all the medals. The graphics reminded me of W-P-S. I'm surprised he wasn't billed here, given how a lot of people worked on it. The music was rather suiting too.

It WAS supposed to be hard. ;) -Samulis
I'm not quite sure what the game has to do with a platformer... it's clearly not the same graphical setup or angle and it has no platforms...
The game can be beaten and we tried to make it clear that you can do that by beating each boss or dominant character in that round... the level select even has a panel that gives tips on defeating each boss, as well as how to defeat the eyes in the first round. Once you beat the first three levels (as displayed in the level select), there IS a time trial if you wish to play that... however, it's essentially just "beat the game as fast as you can". - Tharos
p.s. you are an obsessive reviewer and belong in an asylum. ;)
Great game.
