The Cooler Hangman Game
Join Hangman in his (really) short quest to defeat the big bad monster ruining the game of his name sake!
"Definitely one of the games I've played this year." - Generic Gaming Review Site
"A phenomenal game-unchanger, maintaining the boundaries of what games are and can be." - The 'I Love Games' Times
Dev note: My first game and game jam! Hope you enjoy!
Controls:
A and D for left-right movement
Space to jump (Make sure you're touching the ground when you jump! it can be a little wonky but if you hold Space it gets a little better. Just a little!)
Click on the 'Final Showdown' button to start the final level
B to shoot in the final level
If you have no preference, play the the game in browser! I've added a jump buffer for that build.

Hi! I'll be playing The Cooler Hangman Game tomorrow on stream along with several other games from the Mini Jam 81 at 3:30pm EST. I'll be talking about any interesting design decisions as I play, and suggesting improvements if any come to mind. Please feel free to join me live, it'll be extra fun to chat together about your game while playing it :)
Hi, that's really exciting! I really wish I could make it for the stream but I'm afraid I won't be able to...
Is the stream going to be recorded in any way? I would love to see it, even if it's not live. :)
Yeah there will be the VOD afterwards, I'll try to remember to link it to you :)
Okay thank you!
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1043780359 There we go, you're game was closer to the end of the stream :D
I just watched it and your thoughts were really helpful, I never considered the 'falling off right after respawn' before. And the tips for the boss fight were really good too! Thank you for playing and feedback!
the windows version was flagged by my antivirus but i ran it anyway and it worked
"wtf is this shit" - IGN (joking)
this game is pretty good since its your first game
controls and animations very bad
Haha thanks for checking it out! Will work on the feedback and try to improve :)
