In this game you have to kill everyone in the area, which is almost impossible because you need to jump from one platform to the next without seeing it until you\'re there. This game would have been better with everything smaller compared to the screen - the drawings wouldn\'t have suffered from being reduced a bit.

The characters are drawn large using only black lines, and the effect when they die is very clever (it\'s possible to overlook the fact that sine waves are used there).

I have never seen physics like this before; shooting propels you backward, so you need to balance your shooting with your forward acceleration to get your speed right. Jumping is also frustrating if you\'re used to the more athletic characters of other platform games.

Violencing is a game where you are a creepy looking dude on skis and you kill random people and monsters (which I suspect are the trolls) \"for no reason\". The skis are a bit hard to control, so you often fall into the abyss, but once you manage to control them the game starts to be more fun.

With that being said, I never finished level 1, so I can\'t say if there\'s a level 2. I tried for half hour to learn how to control the skis, and when I finally reached the other end of the map, the game didn\'t end (probably cause some trolls were left alive), and then I again fell into the abyss. The game can be addictive for some time I guess, I know I tried hard to kill all the trolls, but in the end I failed each time.

The bad side is the graphics and the sounds. There are only 3 colors in the game (as it\'s pointed out at game start :) ), and there are no sounds. Some horrible screams of agony would have added some flavor. I also did not see the sine waves. Where are the sine waves?

Finally, my girlfriend liked the game, so I\'ll add +1 for the overall score.

This game was pretty fun. The level curve between the first and second levels was a bit steep, but once you beat the second level it\'s fine. Some interesting challenges, nonetheless. I enjoyed it. Not sure what it\'s a parody of, if it is one, however. Also, the unlockable element wasn\'t too high-par, or at least, unorthodox.
