Awesome game, really loved it

Hey, nice game. Certainly a step up from your previous game, although I enjoyed the music in Gulliver a lot more (you gotta admit Gulliver had an awesome theme song).
Keep it up!

ddrkirbyisq 2013-04-29 04:23

Thanks! I wish I had more time to spend on the music, ideally each level would have had a different song. But alas, time limits...

Great soundtrack and sound stingers for this game!
Very Well done! nice touch that near the end it's lesser of music tracks. and LOL ms-paint weapon :P

Fucking great sounds. Fucking great.

jijaweb 2013-04-29 07:52

One of the best games so far! Cool story!

Nice games.

Awesome game yet again, Gotta say this one makes me feel more like a villain more than the last game.. I don't wanna destroy the music :(

johnfn 2013-04-29 17:21

I really like this. Bonus humor points for MS Paint. Loved how the music would gradually turn off as you destroyed the jukeboxes. It was really fun too!

Nice music, and I really enjoyed the weapon and painting mechanic.

Great fun, the weapons are amazing.

Stellar music, but at this point we expect no less from you. ;)

girlflash 2013-04-30 18:50

a lot of fun! though I kind of wish it changed a little more after the first level. still, it's impressive work for a weekend! :D

ddrkirbyisq 2013-04-30 19:01

Yeah! I totally wanted another enemy type or two, and more music! It's kind of blasphemy that I made so little music for this considering how quickly I churn out tunes, but...alas, needed all the time for coding xD

VERY impressive work for a solo, 48-hour project. Definitely fun, and had excellent music (as usual). Unfortunately, the graphics did feel a tad lacking in terms of detail, and the game didn't really have much "minimalism" going on besides the story. Regardless, I'm impressed by this entry. Nice job!

Awesome game!!! I liked everything here man. The starting music was very catchy too. I think the spraypaint was op tho :D and bazooka is up (underpowered? :D) lol. Very addictive game. Best i played so far. Awesomely great game!!!

ddrkirbyisq 2013-05-01 06:07

Interesting! I actually feel like the bazooka is really useful for taking out enemy spawners, since it takes them out in 3 hits, and since it does splash damage it'll take out enemies too. But it really sucks for painting the rooms, so that's the drawback. The spraypaint is awesome but harder to dodge bullets when you're up close. Again, tradeoffs :)

Cute cube art, got me to play your game!

You nailed the retro feel on the music and sound!

My only complaint is it got a little repetitive after 2 levels. Sorry!

davidpeter 2013-05-03 04:05

Fun game, but got repetitive. I really enjoyed the idea.

beerman 2013-05-04 13:41

Fun little shooter - loved the music.

ddrkirbyisq 2013-05-05 02:58

Made a speed run of me playing through on normal, no continues: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiWdUjF5FTA

Finished in 13:55. Can you beat that?

rezzish 2013-05-05 08:46

Good, excellent!

phocker 2013-05-06 04:29

Holy crap this game is amazing. The concept is great, the music is awesome, and it's just plain fun. I love the jukeboxes eliminating single tracks in the song too. Definitely one of my favorites so far - I finished it despite it being a bit too long for an LD game, IMO. My only suggestion would be to have more variety between levels, make the bullets stand out more from the background, and maybe have the ground-clearing have some more effect on the combat (color slows you down maybe?) rather than just something you have to do.

dremelofdeath 2013-05-16 08:05

This game has some of the best audio I've ever seen in an LD game. Period. This is REALLY good, and I really enjoyed it. Thank you!

frankthetank 2013-05-18 13:22

Wow awesome music! The game idea and execution is also great!

chowdy 2013-05-19 08:47

Ahhh, really awesome game. Excellent music-- didn't want to kill the stereos =(

roupette 2013-05-19 13:38

Very nice rhythm. Gray will rule the world !

mach60kas 2013-05-19 22:48

Wow, the music for this was fantastic! Probably one of the most fun entries I've played so far, very well done! :)

Nice game!

jesse111 2013-05-20 23:32

The game's page says "Ludum Dare 23" (this is Ludum Dare 26)

jesse111 2013-05-20 23:37

Beautifully done.
A charming and fun game in every aspect.
5s across the board!

ddrkirbyisq 2013-05-20 23:53

@Jesse111: thanks! I've fixed the webpage :)
