The game mechanics could use some polish but the humor in this game seemed worthy. It's a platformer featuring Karl Marx... Marx Attacks Directed Chaos Software You can jump, dodge, toss and race your way through an ideological twist of historic proportions. For something sinisteā¦ Free Buy Now Watch Media DetailsYou can jump, dodge, toss and race your way through an ideological twist of historic proportions. For something sinister is brewing deep within the bowels of Urup... as the primordial father of all Redness rises against the good green$ once again! Wield terrible weapons, like wrenches and flowers, as you do battle with all manner of innocent victims: from elite Blackwater troops, Enron lawyers, all the way up to some of the most beloved bosses of the last decade. ***** Important note for all sentient beings! ***** I appreciate the critical feedback. Later versions of Marx Attacks address all concerns listed in the reviews. Of particular note: - Controls are now instant rather than force-based, resulting in snappy movement. - The psychedelic background radiation of the Large Hateron Collider is now off by default. It can be turned on in the pause menu for that level. - The early levels are much easier, with a smoother difficulty progression. - This is a one-man show, thanks for taking a look! Not convinced? It's just a download, and completely FREE! Learn more at http://www.marxattacks.com - and offer feedback on where you'd like to see Marx go next!

Also... it'd be nice to jump a little higher... Really though... can't complain, yet another platformer on my device, and FOR FREE. =o) **edit** forgot to mention... THE BACKGROUND IS FREAKING GREAT!!! I love it!!! undeadcow Well-Known Member Dec 4, 2010 9,493 2 36 Houston, TX #4 undeadcow, Feb 9, 2011 The gameplay mechanics aren't the best but it's got a nice quirky appeal and it's free... directedchaossoftware New Member Oct 18, 2011 1 0 0 Programmer #5 directedchaossoftware, Oct 18, 2011 Many updates, still free This thread is very old, but it happens to be one of the top hits when you google "Marx Attacks." I wanted to thank everyone for checking it out and offering feedback. I've released several updates hopefully fixing the top concerns (particularly the movement quirks). I think the main thing it could use are some better graphics, which is something I'm investigating. Anyone interested, check it out (it's still free). I'm trying to decide if it's worth more investment, or if I should move on to some other game ideas I have kicking around. Thanks everyone! (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
