Happiness is somewhere. This is the main motivation Pepper and Gary have in trying to live a normal life once more after getting transported to the chaos realm by the manager, Tsukiko!!! Now in a train, they're trying to explore and discover happiness again. Unfortunately, an overarching figure wants to stop that


Shoot various enemies that are trying to get in the way of Pepper's happiness!! The game contains the usual batshit items both for basic upgrades or specific ones for Gary! Four lovely shopkeepers will assist the journey in exchange for Pathinko. Expect bosses who have accepted the chaos around them to the point they're willing to kill the duo for whatever reason. Oh and watch out for the modifiers!!


Controls:


  • Arrow Keys - Move
  • Z - Roll/Interact
  • X - Shoot
  • Space - Activate Special
  • C - Change Gary's Attack State
  • Q - Pause
  • F - Fullscreen


Important Stuff!!!


  • If you hold X Pepper faces in the same direction. Let go of X to face your current direction
  • When a level finishes and Gary gets tired from battling, lead Pepper to pick him up and go to the train!
  • When you activate the special attack, Pepper is invincible!
  • Gary has two states: Following Pepper, and Attacking Enemies! Press C to change between them!
  • Pepper's roll acts as a dodge roll

Pretty fun.
I don't get the story though. Pepper and Gary are watching tv, the tv says "Tsukiko!" and then they're just on a train? It kinda feels like there should be a scene linking those two events, explaining who Tsukiko is, maybe showing Pepper and Gary deciding to look for happiness, explaining what the difference is between Tsukiko and the conductor, where the train is going...

Ok really sick music and art first of all. Second is that purple healing chick can suck my dick, I fucking hate her. Real fun game you dudes got so far, the inability to aim up or down was super jarring at first (also didn't realize the sandwich was an enemy until my third try at the first level), but the levels felt more reasonable down the line as I got used to the control scheme.

I think the first level is definitely a sucker punch to the throat though if you're still getting used to the limited aiming. Also I think the roll would be easier to use if it didn't require a running start, cuz I feel like when I'm turning corners it doesn't realize I'm still moving so it doesn't let me roll. Definitely gonna check in on this for future updates

The game was amazing, I really hope there's more of it in the future, otherwise I'm going to sue you (just kidding, I love your work)
Five good stars for all of you :D

This was a really fun and simple experience, I love the music, I love the aesthetic. I love it all, please continue to work on this and I will be waiting on more. A breath of fresh air in the ai slop

Fun and very frenetic!
