Go for it. Did you kill a goblin? Grab his body and chuck it at the other one. Cut off his head? Cool, pick it up and use it to bludgeon the next guy.
It has kind of a Deadpool-esque lighthearted comedy to it, offsetting the violent rampage going on.
Basically he just wanted to make an extremely FUN game. I think he succeeded.
