Great game!

Awesome game! This shows what is possible in a jam. I was unable to complete so kudos!

(+1)

I love this mix of 2k style and lofi hiphop music and art style

Even on one player mode the game is still fun to mess around with, I can see this being played in many areas of the webs.

Keep up the good work.

I love this game! Such a simple and fun concept, and it has a ton of style!

(+2)

i love everything about this! it's like indie pogo with swag

(+2)

Really fun game, love the aesthetic. I found what I think might be a bug where if you do Hip's special very soon after a short jump it sends the character straight up. Love the game, can't wait to see more of it.

Really fun, good aesthetic, overall a very tied together game.

(+1)

Very neat! Quite unique, and it’s very enjoyable to play. The characters are simple but feel unique, I especially like Hip as his dash makes me feel smart when I use it to feint and reposition.

Looks good, banger music, VERY fun!! No notes, though a bit too easy in my opinion. Maybe if I had a friend with to play that could fix that issue though. But anyways good job to everyone involved!!!

Yo I had the same Idea once, anyway, the game is fire and the aesthetic from this game is my favourite !!

Came to check out the 'competition' for the game jam and this is very cool, love that there are multiple stages with actual differences. Hip's special is fun to use.
