Also me and my friend found some bugs such as the game randomly freezing (although this could be due to the hardware I'm running on) and when the players get a gift box and the only option is gym member, player 2 can just spam the option and get 600+ HP!
Amazing gameplay with physics I really loved it. If possible could you add an AI battle arena please. That would make really interesting fights and replayability much higher. Also would make great Youtube AI Battle video series.
You guys should make some tutorial series. It's currently the best stick/ragdoll game in the universe. You can make great money by making tutorials or selling the game on Steam.
Seriously, how do you even make these combat mechanics, animations? It's gorgeous.
Thanks for the compliments - A full working form of the game on Steam would be the best case scenario! I need to try convince the rest of team to maybe do a dev stream on Twitch.
Warning: These are optional ideas if the developers run out of 'em (Probably won't be happening in the next 3 years lolol)
1.) Red Tie
Category: Perk
Design: Red n' Blue diagonal pattern tie (Black is optional)
How it works: 50% chance for enemies to not notice you. (Damaging them will make them attack you. Stunning them will not work though.)
Once still noticed, every 5 seconds, the chance output will increase by 5%. Once reaching half 5 sec (2.5 sec) the effect will try again
and the process will repeat until 100% comes in. Respawning enemies like Jeff Bezos still can be affected by this but will start as 35%
for bosses and mini-bosses.
2.) Tradesmen
Category: Perk
Design: None
How it works: Every kill on a normal enemy will give you 1p of EXP. This ramps up to 2 when killing an assassin (A.K.A. the outside elevator dudes)
Ramps up to 10 when killing bosses
2.5.) Pet Menu
Category: Menu
Design: Standard menu design mixed with a pet-like design and pet selection (Find pets on the next ideas)
How it works: The menu will serve as a pet menu in which found pets, pets finsihed using tasks, and obtaining pets through maxed out moves or in
perks (finding pets in perks will have a 1% chance of happening) will appear and can be used repeatedly. (A.K.A. always)Plus, you
can name your pets always. Note that it will start with the original name. You can also store pet names and find them by pressing N on
the menu. The pets will also be the size of the normal player's head (Big head Excluded). Most pets cannot be damaged unless they
are specific pets. You can heal them using your self-healing moves and water jugs.
3 pt 1.) Clip
Category: Move
Design: A clip
How it works: Will stun enemies (same amount of time as the glue gun) Clip has infinite ammo
3 pt 2.) Bear Trap
Category: Move
Design: Looks like a Bear Trap
How it works: has 7 bullets. It will stay there for 1 minute and when not activated, will dissapear. When an enemy steps on it, the enemy will remain
there and can't do anything. The Bear Trap will continuously damage the enemy by 1dmg every 10 seconds and become re-usuable
once again repeating what I just said. The Player cannot interrupt the process by hitting either the victim ot the Bear Trap. Same goes
with bosses. The duration of this upgrade doing what it does can range from 30s to 3m.
3 pt 3.) Chomper (Any optional name)
Category: Pet
Design: Looks like the chomper from SM64 with no eyes but spiky teeth and an open mouth.
How it works: The Chomper stuns the enemy and damages the enemy by 2. Multiple enemies up to 3 can still work for the Chomper. 25% chance to
Crit the dmg by 10. The stun time will be 10 seconds before releasing the enemy.
3.5.) Taskbar
Category: Task Menu
Design: A building in the street map that upon entering it will have bar-like shaped objects with the tasks inside those bar-like shapes.
How it works: Completing a task in-game will open a bar saying that you completed the task. you can turn the option off before starting the game
(The starting setting with a big START button). Going to the Taskbar, the tasks both completed and non- completed tasks will appear.
The completed tasks will be Green and non completed be Black and White. Once you press the ENTER key on your keyboard or the
enter key 4 your console (idk if you can play da game in console), you will get things like new accessories, pets, moves, classes, and
perks.
3.75.) Modes
Category: Creativity Using
Design: Comes in the Street as a building for thsese modes (Map Making mode will be for the "Start a company" building)
Map Making Mode, Co-op Bot mode, Vs mode, Parkour mode (This will be in the map making mode for testing the map)
So uhhh, I dont wanna be late for the next update after the big one so, here's the Pt.1 for you devs to get some ideas on and put your arms to work
if you guys are bored so, uhh yeah. Ultra-big fan!
- The underaged kid who has an itch io account named "LofiHyperHipHop" Because he's a chill person to some extent.
Sorry for taking you guys by storm with these ideas. I kinda wanted to add the accessories as a full on option but my eyes are having imaginary dots on my eyez that hurt.
Those are some in depth suggestions! Thank you. We appreciate it when people are passionate about the game. Thanks for all the effort you put into this.
Your maths is better than mine - but sometimes things take time. The last update was a LARGE one and the team is working on fun new stuff. Hang in there!
Actually Saitama is still in the game. If you get the option to "hit the gym" after finishing a run (which I think is exclusive to completing the game on the hardest difficulty), you can unlock him. Once you're in the gym, you'll know what to do. ;)
The difficulties are represented by the minimum wage of the company. To increase the minimum wage, beat the final boss and choose to yeet them off the building afterwards - then you'll have the option to increase minimum wage. You only have to do this twice to unlock the hardest difficulty of $25 an hour. (I think you have to beat the game on the second hardest difficulty to unlock the hardest difficulty, although I'm not entirely sure of that.)
Can't really progress, the only way i can pick an option is by alt tabbing and then guessing where my cursor is because i can't select with keyboard keys

i think my keybinds for the use and special attack buttons are messed up how do i fix them
Key rebinding is something the team will be looking at for the full game.
Yes finally! Been waiting for new update, and I Love it already.
Thank you for the upload - gave you a like on YouTube.
I like this game. When the official version comes out, I will buy it :]
The team appreciates the support - thank you!
10/10 game! I just wish for an never-ending mode!
Thanks for the suggestion.
"you're fired!" *other person spontaneously bursts into flame*
When I was at the second last level I killed everyone but no doors opened
Thanks for letting us know - If it happens again - please try grab a screenshot :)
you should really buff investigative reporter
I unlocked the new careers a little too easily. Thanks for the updates.
Thanks for playing
how can i afford it?
This game is free but the developer accepts your support by letting you pay what you think is fair for the game.
Or you can click: No thanks, just take me to the downloads
thanks!
Me and my friends made a couple of challengeing levels that you can either play together or solo. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JXvHJJc2hotlBpZsF9bXX_7wUnz9ASZw?usp=sha...![]()
How to add the levels: go here and copy the files and enjoy!
Also me and my friend found some bugs such as the game randomly freezing (although this could be due to the hardware I'm running on) and when the players get a gift box and the only option is gym member, player 2 can just spam the option and get 600+ HP!
Please remember that these aren't coming directly from us - so using them is at your own risk.
The files are very small and downloading them through Google Drive does a virus check so they are safe! Check them out!
which file do i paste into?
Go to Appdata, Local Low, FreeLives, Stick it to the (Stick) Man, Startups
Past it their :)
I've purchased this game & installed on macOS High Sierra. it starts and crashes right away. I'm unable to play. Please refund
Are you playing on an M1 Mac?
If so please right click the app -> Get info -> Tick the box 'Open with Rosetta'
If that doesn't work I can chat to the team about your refund. Please let me know.
I've
macOS High Sierra
2.5 GHz intel core i5
graphics card: AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB
I first directly tried game. It was crashing. Then I installed the 'itch' app and I tried to launch from there and still crashing.
I've spoken to the team and the best solution from our side is to give you a Steam key to one of our other games. Let me know your thoughts
Can I get "RE:RUN"?
I'm thinking, even this, would it work on macOS High Sierra.
I tried installed the new demo of the stick-it-to-the man, but even that Neurolink demo was crashing here.
Such a fun game! Really had me hooked for..damn it's been 3 hours of kicking stick ass already!
3 hours well spent! Thanks for playing.
pls add hats
thx
What hats would you expect to see indoors at a workplace?
in my opinion id see a fedora or very very plane looking hair
Maybe a stack of paper that can be knocked off and spread like in the delivery parcel, but without kind off stunning enemy
There is a ripoff of this on mobile called stickman punch
Thanks for bringing that to our attention. As far as I can tell - it's been dealt with. Please send a link if you can still see it on your side.
have you guys ever thought of putting this (and some of your other games, like Anger Foot) on Steam?
Steam would be the goal for a fully cohesive version of the game but Anger Foot and a couple others are on Steam right now :)
Could you guys create an awesome trailer as sort of a celebration for the new update, because that could really get peoples attention.
Fun idea - thanks for the suggestion
Thanks for replying, i apreciate it. :)
Amazing gameplay with physics I really loved it. If possible could you add an AI battle arena please. That would make really interesting fights and replayability much higher. Also would make great Youtube AI Battle video series.
Fun ideas - thanks for the suggestions.
You should add an installer so people can put it on their desktop
Lots of people use the itch app which helps :)

Many thanks if you acknowledge this Devs!
Those are some in depth suggestions! Thank you. We appreciate it when people are passionate about the game. Thanks for all the effort you put into this.
no prob!
Whats taking so long its been around 300 days
Your maths is better than mine - but sometimes things take time. The last update was a LARGE one and the team is working on fun new stuff. Hang in there!
when is the next update I'm really excited
Hopefully new stuff will be dropping soon!

The BEST free fighting game ever！！！！！！
That's a big claim! These comments are a rollercoaster of emotions. Thank you ! ! ! ! ! !
it is a shit game
Thou get no bitches
We love creative criticism - What don't you like about it?
I'm waiting for a new version
I love this game
I playing it 1 year
An update is being worked on! It's going to be worth the wait! Check the Free Lives Discord for more info.
anyone have the 0.77 version of the game? or at least the version with saitama?
Actually Saitama is still in the game. If you get the option to "hit the gym" after finishing a run (which I think is exclusive to completing the game on the hardest difficulty), you can unlock him. Once you're in the gym, you'll know what to do. ;)

thank you
what a fucking game
Agreed. Thanks for playing
is this still being updated.
Love the game
Yes - an update is on the way.
thank you for the quick response
Can not wait for the update
YES!!
Can't really progress, the only way i can pick an option is by alt tabbing and then guessing where my cursor is because i can't select with keyboard keys
When you say pick an option - which point in the game do you mean? Pick which ability to choose and or upgrade.Pick which character to use etc etc?
All of them, picking options, resolutions, wages, upgrades, i can't select it unless i somehow click the right one with my mouse.
This Is The Only Game That Makes Me Mad So Much And Throw My Tea On The Ground.And 2 Seconds Later i Play It Again.
Thank you for playing! Any tea preferences or doesn't it matter because it ends up on the ground anyways?
so bored waiting for the new update :(
It's worth the wait. Hang in there!
i love this game is sooo cool
The team appreciates the kind words - thank you for playing :)
Does anybody know where i can find leaks of stick it to the sickman?
Lots of fresh discussion and SITTSM info over on the Free Lives Discord : https://discord.gg/UFrJXHvSA6
Ican't connect to the discord.
Killing the boss instead of the friend at the start caused it to crash...
10/10 love it
A rollercoaster of emotions in that comment - thank you
