I laughed so hard when I first heard the "Huh" sound effect

pixelulsar 2012-08-27 23:14

Actually really fun! I loved the stealth element.

I loved the gameplay!
But I think that would be better if the game was a little faster.
Very interesting, simple and great humor!

Oh, I loved this game! Great job! This is game I could definitely go back and play some more. I wish things were a little bigger so I could see them better though. That's my only complaint. Otherwise fun and polished game with appropriate graphics.

sfernald 2012-08-28 04:03

What framework did you use to make this in, btw?

mrdanh 2012-08-28 07:56

We used Flixel, since I was familiar with using it from the last Ludum Dare. Thanks for the kind words people :)

Nice game, a litte slow at times.

jezzamon 2012-08-28 22:10

Interesting, but yeah, it seemed a little slow

imef 2012-08-28 23:41

Great game! Had lots of fun playing it!

sfernald 2012-08-28 23:43

Oh flixel, awesome. Are you considering releasing the source? I would love to see what the source code looks like on such a professional game.

The blob's nom made me smile more then a few times. Heh.

Nice implementation of stealth mechanics, but yeah it does seem a little slow.

Slowed down a bit when there were lots of enemies on the screen but it was really fun to play! Eating up those people was oddly satisfying, especially after being shot at by them :)

suffolkandclever 2012-08-29 06:48

Nice! Very slow paced as mentioned. Also, the idea seems familiar... ;)

Its a shame you guys couldnt get the theme idea in that you had planned, I can really see it working out. Got that 1950's b-movie scifi going. Amusing sfx :D

zx81 2012-08-30 19:05

I've won :)
Great game and audio effects.

Huh? Omnomnomnomnom. A nice entry. :) Now for the bad :p Your idea was great, but I thought it wasn't executed as best it could be. For example, while things like slow movement and enemy placement which forced you to walk around the whole screen are great for prolonging gameplay, I started to feel more like it was a waiting game. An easy way to combat this, would have been to make Z lunge in the direction you are moving, when you aren't locked on to anything, to speed it up. Overall, presentation was nice.

I like stealth gameplay. All good but I can't figure out about evolution...

gritfish 2012-09-02 03:56

Moving felt painfully slow, but I loved the stealth aspect, and the "omnomnomnom" sound made me giggle every time.

haddy22 2012-09-10 18:08

Great game!~ 5 stars very well done and very fun to play.

atraxgames 2012-09-14 19:29

I like the stealth idea, but after a while it become a little bit repetitive, nice sounds indeed!

thewiseguy99 2012-09-15 22:13

Fun game to play. Loved the different approach where you had to sneak up on your enemy and get close whereas they could shoot you from a distance. The sound effects were good and quite funny. I hope you continue to develop this and polish as it is a really great start! Awesome job!
