Pretty cool game.
How did you get it to be a .jar and a .exe? just curious.

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 08:53

Thanks, erhm I used JarSplice, and normally my res folder would be in the jar but somehow that didn't work properly so I put it all in a jar.

*rar Sorry for double post don't know how to edit previous comment :P

A bit easy, i think 100 lives are too much

rustybroomhandle 2013-08-26 10:13

The bat-death noises remind me of Ultima Online. :D Nice game - some polish to the graphics and menus would make it even more appealing. The bats are just tiny enough to be infuriating :D

mekuri 2013-08-26 10:14

Hey there. Nice entry. I stopped after a few minutes, since my click finger got irritated. It's not anything I haven't seen before, but still a job well done.

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 10:36

@tiffy well yeah atm it is kinda easy but how I had it first it was kinda to hard so I tried to balance it and well this way it was nicest balance when you wanna get more expensive upgrades. @rusty Hehe thanks :) the menu buttons between waves are on purpose on the side else you would click on them all the time and I agree but okay :p, @mekuri thnx oh I never really had an irratating finger guess I'm used to click :P, and thanks :).

vvolis 2013-08-26 11:02

Needs some kind of weapon upgrade, as in 10 minutes I think I have clicked a weeks worth of Diablo :D

marcellus 2013-08-26 11:06

Nice game, would have loved to see a bigger cursor upgrade to kill bats in a wider radius. They really become too much around wave 20 and now my finger hurts.
But I had fun.

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 11:07

Yeah but I didnt really know what :p.

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 11:09

@marcellus well thats a key thats missing but thats probally also through I didnt really have that issue I've played it legit alot n didn't have any pain in my fingers xD

hardscore 2013-08-26 11:11

A simple yet fun game, well done. Apparently massacring bats is a very fun activity, especially with the squeking sound that they make :)

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 11:13

@HardScore hehe thanks :)

manabreak 2013-08-26 11:37

I hate to admit, but I played this for 30 minutes or so, got to level 79 and stopped only because my index finger started to hurt. :)

Well done, this is a good example of a game with just the core mechanics, plus something achievable.

By the way, the helper that says it costs 225 points actually costs only 200. :)

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 12:11

@manabreak oh darnit well original price was 200 n then I thought I make it a bit harder to get but I guess I didnt change that price then in the code..

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 12:24

Ok should been fixed minor bug not game changing so fits within the rules, to bad I'm not allowed to add another upgrade for mouse :P

doonay21 2013-08-26 19:17

Nice and cool game! Well done :)

gikdew 2013-08-26 19:20

Nice fun little game! Love it!

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 20:12

thnx :)!

vasileiadis 2013-08-26 21:00

It got me to play till level 20 but it kind of needed a few more mechanics / options / boss fights (?) ;)

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 21:05

wave 20 is nothin :p wave 20 is still kinda easy but I'm adding more upgrades n such, so I got improved versions but Its not uploaded here because thats illegal. I think ill soon post link here in my post to no ludum version :), n thnx for the idea I'll try to put it in :)

tegu 2013-08-26 21:34

Oww, my finger hurts. :D Clicked at least 13 minutes and got to wave 81 before stopping. I guess it could have gone on forever. :D After getting all the upgrades it was just crazy clicking for 10 seconds, then more crazy clicking to refill HP (score was incrementing faster than I was able to spend it). So yea, probably needs some different weapons or something. But it was very addictive, I just _had_ to get all the upgrades. :D

itssacraficed 2013-08-26 22:14

Hehe Yay Iknow that feeling :D, and yeah I'm making an improved version with some mouse upgrades(not to cheap tho) and maybe some big boss battles or so?, and yes it goes on for ever :p, well at least till u die.

tainted_code 2013-08-27 12:34

Haha, pretty cool! 100 lives though o_o Either way, I liked it! :D

shitandson 2013-08-27 12:43

Really addictive game!
With better graphics this game can be awesome

itssacraficed 2013-08-27 12:48

Yeah working on a improved version atm :), so hopefully one day better graphics n HP is reduced to 50 might change that as well but this is the 48 hours version :).

arrow-x 2013-08-27 18:43

Good work ...congrats on your 3re LD48

itssacraficed 2013-08-27 18:46

Thanks :)

ratalaika 2013-08-27 19:36

good job

kratorspore 2013-08-27 19:41

Engaging but needs a bit of balancing.

kunonooni 2013-08-29 01:49

I love the noise the bats make when you kill them. :)

sdgusler 2013-08-30 04:12

addictive little game, bats are a pita to hit!

spaceoff 2013-09-07 22:51

Do you know how damn hard this is with a touchpad? >_<
Anyway, hooked up a mouse and tried this proper.

It's pretty fun, it could have done with more variety of powerups to keep interest for longer.

mrblade 2013-09-14 02:00

Nice work. The killing a bat sounds like "icky bottle" haha. At least you added sounds. Nice graphics. Good work! 5/10.
