Really impressed with the graphics on this one. I really like the style, like Minecraft Plus.

tacospice 2013-08-26 03:24

Very moody. Not sure how the theme plays in? Also not sure what to do when ammo runs out. Great graphics though. Mouse cursor should be hidden/locked while playing.

tork 2013-08-26 03:46

loved your art and the idea is good, I would give more ammo at the start since you get out of it really fast

bmacintosh 2013-08-26 03:48

Solid game, very clever. The number of dudes escalated pretty quickly, I would have liked more time to look at the gravestones.

mpath 2013-08-26 03:50

Can't figure out how to get upgrades.

kortuga98 2013-08-26 04:13

Hey everybody! Seems there's a bit of a problem with upgrades! HINT: They're on the tombstones! You gotta look around for them. There's only 7, though. Not all the tombstones are interactable.

flamecow 2013-08-26 04:49

This game is very interesting. The gameplay is pretty fun, and the artstyle is pleasant to look at.

lancey 2013-08-26 04:59

I'm very confused how this fits with the theme?

oldpeculier 2013-08-26 05:00

Nice graphics. It ran pretty slow on my system at times. Also, the creatures keep getting up inside my head—suddenly they've snuck up and they're inside me. That's not real fun.

matthias_zarzecki 2013-08-26 05:00

Solid shooter! I really like that the gun doesn't auto-fire :)

A tiny bit rough around the edges. Without the gun-clipping and with the gameplay a bit more streamlined this could be even better :)

pvwradtke 2013-08-26 05:00

Cool, it feel like Minecraft has finally met Doom. Glad that I stayed up a little more to play it.

manabreak 2013-08-26 05:02

This was cool! I'm not a big fan of Minecraft, but here, the Minecraft-esque look really worked. Also, killing zombies is fun, good job here! :)

Loved it!

scriptorum 2013-08-26 05:08

Great mood. I had trouble with the melee. Every time I used it I'd lose a 15% of my health bar or so. This is even when nobody's near me. Hrm! I'll stick with guns...

dalep 2013-08-26 05:11

The graphical style was well executed. Mood was well done. However, enemies sort of clipped through me when they got close enough, and the mouse was too sensitive to aim effectively (though that's something I've noticed on a lot of Unity games for some reason).

kortuga98 2013-08-26 05:22

Thanks everyone for the feedback! I'll try and fix some of the common problems and reupload a post-compo version, so check back later if you're interested!

kortuga98 2013-08-26 05:23

Additionally, has anyone uncovered Clive's dark past yet? I'm curious to find out if someone has.

stevesalmond 2013-08-26 05:27

Those graphics are really top notch - I love the monster skins! The graveyard mood is great too.. Well done! :D

spiralcodestudio 2013-08-26 05:52

Pretty good! Killing undead is always fun!

andrewves 2013-08-26 07:11

The audio and graphics in this work together to create a great atmosphere.

impmaster 2013-08-26 08:48

A decent game. The monsters were a bit hard to see. I didn't like that my mouse cursor was going across the screen, instead of being locked in. I didn't know how to reload :O and that kind of screwed me over. I thought the graphics were quite good.

thehermit 2013-08-26 08:54

Nice! I appreciate the little touches like the plot summary (though its kind of hidden in the tutorial) and the text on the gravestones.

One odd thing: I don't know why, but the mouse controls were really sensitive - I'd move the mouse a centimeter and my view would spin halfway around.

kddekadenz 2013-08-26 09:15

I love the visuals of the game! The audio is good, as well.
The difficulty could be balanced better, though.

g_o 2013-08-26 09:38

Pretty awsome!

hypnohustla 2013-08-26 12:46

Loved the character design. It escalated a bit too fast for my taste. But overall a nice little fps game!

ratalaika 2013-08-26 13:55

Great work!! And nice graphics :)

omar_q8 2013-08-26 14:38

nice art style and atmosphere, controls feel okay too, and the mechanic is a proven fun one. It's a bit confusing with the ammo/power system and the theme (10 seconds) kinda feels hidden here.

lordjosephdeburg 2013-08-26 15:49

Good game, got mobbed pretty quick!

capro 2013-08-26 15:55

Cute graphics and the game is good. You need to improve controls.

jaj 2013-08-26 15:57

I felt looking around was too responsive, but that may be just me, I don't play a lot of shooters. Other than that it was really nice. Nice style!

todnut 2013-08-26 17:23

Great art! I liked the gravestones as a store!

ghostik 2013-08-26 18:05

Really nice graphic but the game did not locked my mouse in webplayer so it was pretty hard to play.

bmanrules 2013-08-26 18:20

Very moody. Not sure how the theme plays in? Also not sure what to do when ammo runs out. Great graphics though. Mouse cursor should be hidden/locked while playing.

I agree with this.

zedutchgandalf 2013-08-26 19:00

Mouse should be catched in a game like this...
Other than that, these are some really neat graphics and the game's very moody! :)

gikdew 2013-08-26 19:36

nice graphics and visuals, very moody!

blooperly 2013-08-26 20:05

Interesting game! Mouse sensitivity was way too high though, and I couldnt find more ammo.

cubertoy 2013-08-26 21:59

Really liked it, control are kinda weird (mouse sensitivity mainly) but really fun and really gorgeous. Nice work.

nate427 2013-08-26 23:41

Loved the graphical style, good job broiv!

diogomuller 2013-08-27 00:09

I like the characters and the game is fun, but I'm not sure how if fits the theme.

kortuga98 2013-08-27 00:11

Thanks everyone for the feedback so far, and for those of you wondering how it fits the theme, you have to kill certain amounts of enemies before the 10-second timer runs out to reset it; the number of enemies you have to kill to reset the timer increases over time.

fireblend 2013-08-27 01:01

Nice graphics and sound effects! Neat idea, although once enemies start piling up there's little you can do to prevent dying. Still, really good!

dwallin 2013-08-27 01:25

Slightly more time before I'm swarmed by monsters and a gentler ramp up would do wonders for player engagement and setting the mood. Monsters are much scarier when they can surprise you, like when you hear a monster in a cave in minecraft but you can't see it. Too many monsters at first takes away from the eeriness of being alone in a dark abandoned cemetery.

puzzlem00n 2013-08-27 01:40

Wow. You're a great artist! I would have liked if the ten second timer was a bit more obvious and the enemies didn't crowd you as close. I assume the backstory you spoke of was the one in the instructions? Overall, pretty good!

ariake81 2013-08-27 02:53

nice! love the foggy effects and overall look of it

ray_mickelino 2013-08-27 03:02

The graphics were great. Your game was aesthetically incredible. It was pretty tough too. Good job.

gus 2013-08-27 03:51

Unexpectedly moody, didn't even got to the first boss (my current pc is kinda of shitty), but really liked the experience.
The game is simple, but I noticed your effort in there, it's impressive how you managed to create something solid and in 3D at the same time in only 48 hours, good job.

patrickgh3 2013-08-27 04:55

Spooky but somehow also cute graphics. Fun game!

nerlin 2013-08-27 04:59

Fun graphics. Idea reminds me our game) Great job.

endesga 2013-08-27 05:32

pretty cool :)
I love the graphics :D

crazi456 2013-08-27 09:08

Was very amusing, liked it a lot!

infernet89 2013-08-27 09:58

Really cool graphics! I loved them.. and i felt so bad when i ran out of ammo.. Upgrades were a little hidden.

zkenshin 2013-08-27 16:07

Cute art, nicely done. :)

zerkruemler 2013-08-27 19:56

I got overwhelmed very quickly. Quite frustrating after a short time to play.
But a solid game with good graphics and sound

zillix 2013-08-28 04:44

great mood and presentation! I love the idea of putting the upgrades in tombstones

ramoncb 2013-08-29 03:29

I like the game! just the mouse here was a little sensitive

sorry my bad english! xD

ciaran54 2013-08-29 16:04

Really nice graphics and mood, and great audio but I thought the upgrades were a bit difficult to figure out and ammo was a bit hard to come by (only minor issues)

edocentrique 2013-08-29 18:03

Wow excellent !

otus 2013-08-30 21:23

Simple and effective graphics.
I like the survival premise, and think this game can evolve beyond the LD.

Keep working on it!

sengi 2013-09-01 08:57

I love minecraft, this game has very simular graphic - it is cool!

codexus 2013-09-01 10:55

Pretty nice game. I like the minecraft-style enemies they are quite cute. The difficulty was bit brutal, my games lasted about 10s.
