Approaching first tower "this is easy", all of a sudden "bullet hell!". Neat little game.

Very fun, serious bullet hell after a while though!

Ver cool, it was quite hard! I like the way it was done but i think there was a few to many enemies!

It's a lot of fun when a bunch of enemies dashes towards you and you can use your grappling hook to evade :) You actually caught that part of just cause 2 pretty well I think. Well done :) Very nice music.

Great, but difficult game. :) Good work

imagnity 2013-04-29 16:35

More enemies please. Make me panic! :)

fervir 2013-04-29 16:37

Well done. Tight controls fun mechanics.
Grappling hook is the best.
Beat the game with 27590.

Nice. I liked the fast paced gameplay. I could never complete it though because after a while there are so many enemies.

Holy crap, so many bullets. Anyway it was a pretty fun game. My only complaint is there isn't anyway stimulus to being so I feel like the bullets aren't doing anything and before I know it I'm dead

Great game! the enemy AI tends to get stuck in the water

I like your approach to the minimalism theme, and you did a pretty good job capturing the core essence of JC2 :)

tribeard 2013-04-29 23:06

I like the look. I feel you have a few too many mechanics going on at once here - dropping one or two and laser focusing on the others would have made a better game IMO. I had fun though!

So good, I thought I was actually playing Just Cause 2.

villhest 2013-04-29 23:11

Wow dude! I managed to get all the towers, and it was pretty awesome! Now I'm jealous :/

kratorspore 2013-04-29 23:13

Probably goes a bit over the top with the enemy spawn rate but its a totally impressive amount of work for a 48h jam. Well done. Lots of fun.

bigbazwa 2013-04-29 23:17

Thanks for playing everyone! Glad you are enjoying it.

I love Just Cause 2 also and when I read your trying to strip that down in 2 days I thought pffttt, but man that is just what you did. Really funny how similar the pace is and lots of fun kudos. I was able to rangle 20 enemies into a group at a time http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/8681/b8acacc838a748079adec60.png

The music is great and reminds me of James Bond.

Actually, the whole game does. That is if James Bond destroyed water towers.

clavus 2013-05-04 15:02

Fun concept. Pretty straightforward game.

matthias_zarzecki 2013-05-06 19:19

Fun shooter!

catman 2013-05-14 10:04

Not bad at all! A lot of stuff for so little time! :)
