Nice game. Reminded me of Blaster Master for the NES.

I really loved everything about this game. I hope to see more of it in the future.

Really nice game. I like it!

suvidriel 2014-08-26 07:02

Great game :) Nice dune-like worm too

kewry 2014-08-26 07:05

Lovely game dude, the music is awesome and the graphics adorable

Very nice game! well done!

nuclearnapalm 2014-08-26 07:09

Z & X keys not responding on Mac...

extrelime 2014-08-26 07:10

That thing was too hardcore for me! =)
Graphics is pretty simple, but there's something adorable in this minimanistic style.
I liked music the most. This ambient is really moody!
Good work guys!

I like the graphics and the mood! Please make a mouse aim + WASD move control (qwertz keyboard here) :D

Nuclear Napalm: Weird, I'll have to look into why this isn't working, thanks for letting me know!

BitOfGold: I'll make sure to update the controls on a post-compo release in order to accommodate more peoples arrangements, thanks for the feedback!

And thanks to everyone else's feedback so far. Glad you all liked it! :)

Well it took me quite a few deaths to get past these 10 first seconds of action :D

capitals 2014-08-26 21:41

Beautiful game which handles extremely well.

trekapp 2014-08-26 21:42

Nice job, really liked it - but x and z is really an awkward combination on qwertz ;)

mechanicmoon 2014-08-26 23:27

Reminds me one of my favourite action films when.. you know when! Really nice! great job!

atomicvikings 2014-08-27 01:21

Great work. I couldn't get past the sand boss though. :( but your gameplay is spot on :)

tehskull 2014-08-27 07:44

Good fun. Make more, I love it.

xeke_death 2014-08-27 14:18

I got eaten by the worm, and still shot it.. Other than that, looks cool, sound is good... Nice work..!

altourus 2014-08-27 14:53

Dat worm was sooooo hard

partiallyexciting 2014-08-28 02:37

Though short, this game feels polished, and it seems like you have a nice engine to build on.

torcado194 2014-08-28 03:15

hm that was alright. it was a little buggy but still fun

dickpoelen 2014-08-28 08:27

Nice game! Takes a bit to get used to the aiming though

ekilibr 2014-08-28 23:43

Realy nice shot !
Absolutely fan of the art, btw !

officialcodenmore 2014-08-29 00:23

It's a fun game, cool sound.

makatak 2014-08-29 01:22

Felt insanely frustrating to have to restart after being one-hit-killed, but the roll animation was perfect!

hypnohustla 2014-08-29 06:53

Very cool game. Music was very good. I'd like to see more of this game. :)

teejay5 2014-08-29 07:14

I really liked the creature design and the graphics! This game has some nice tunes too. That flippin wormy worm is so unforgiving, I couldn't get past him! D: I could probably get past him if I had lives maybe...maybe

roguenoodle 2014-08-30 13:13

Great entry - rolling and shooting felt really smooth, and the visuals were simplistic but very fitting. The hitbox on the worm was little punishing though :P

pjimmy 2014-08-31 21:34

very nice :)

commodorekid 2014-09-01 13:40

Thanks for your comment and stream earlier :) I took notes while I play so here they are:
- There is no need to make loading bar 3D if it fills up in 3D :)
- I liked the story at the beginning, nicely written.
- Not very necessary but you could put a little shadow under creatures.
- I loved the gameplay and boss mechanics together with the graphics. They need more work but they have a style.
- The game is quite short for 72 hours in my opinion.

This reminded me of Titan Sould a little :) Very good entry!

drcicero 2014-09-04 23:08

WTF the 3d loading bar is loaded 2d!

Nice story intro, made it feel more like a real game (instead of an arcade game like most games here are)!

jupiter_hadley 2014-09-06 21:33

Cool concept, nice graphics! I included it in part 17 of my Ludum Dare 30 Compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/02vIiZyi3-c

Pretty cool! Thought it looked very nice, especially the animation was cute.

apiotrw 2014-09-13 15:39

Great work :)

tobiasw 2014-09-14 22:38

Well-done graphics and sfx and cool music! I like the fact that it had boss battles - not many LD games do that. I wish it had a bit more variety of enemies - everything before the boss is really easy. Those little critters latching to you are unintendedly adorable though, haha.
