This actually looks pretty interesting.

The innovation was pretty low, however the game itself was fun. The theme relation wasn't very creative and didn't go further than the fact that you're just a monster. The humor was quite shallow, yet the audio reminded me of happy wheels so that upped it a bit. Overall, not bad :)

i made a similar game but this is more innovative i guess. good job :D

The game was fun to play, I managed to kill 84 people before I starved to death.

Nice controls and using the gun was fun. Kinda made me feel bad about killing people.

I think it would feel better if you could move in all directions not just up/down/left/right.

Pretty Fun. Once you figure out the tactic of running perpendicular to the shooters and lunging in between shots it feels pretty good to play. might have been better with the ability to run on diagonals though.

Interesting game, I had fun playing it. :)

I like shooters, nice and fun.

secularbaron 2015-08-25 13:17

I ate some humans.

Game was fun. Would have loved to manage to kill more people lol. Firing gun was nice.

The style hearkens back to the original GTA, and that's a good thing. Neat ambient sounds as well.
Would like to have some kind of dodge or shield system in place for when you're getting shot while running straight at enemies.

For a monster who eats humans for survival, it's pretty wasteful considering how many bodies are left around.

cruzer_au 2015-08-27 23:41

@KBF123 well, he doesn't eat the skin or cloths. much too chewy.

So hard game but fun. Civilians run a bit much!

Got 11 kills. Fine game, but there were a few shortcomings:
4 directional movement is something you MUST avoid, or at least make it so the button pressed second has priority over the buttons pressed earlier.
AI wasn't amazing, and the aim-bot on the red humans was a bit broken so it became a bit of just "go for the ones without guns, then survive for as long as possible while running towards the red ones."

Running around! Eating people to survive! Simple fun, perfect for a game jam!

zyxer 2015-08-29 16:18

Haha funny game. The sounds and the graphics remind me strongly of GTA 2. Enjoyed playing it!

Nice, works good and it's fun to play, and extra points because you made it with C++ and SFML! (i did too : D)

vaclav 2015-09-05 12:01

It's really nice with SFML as it's low level. Did you have an own engine for it already? Can we see the source maybe?

mechanicmoon 2015-09-10 13:10

The game is fun, that is the important part. I like the fx and the gameplay. It is like a pacman where you are the ghost. Nice job! :-)

bodsey 2015-09-10 14:34

I agree with some other commenters, it won't break the 3 legs of a duck (it's a french expression), but it's an honest and solid job. I think you're solid enough to take more risks next time, maybe ?

slashee-the-cow 2015-09-13 11:19

Simple fun. And it seems like you already fixed most of the things I was going to complain about in the post jam version :).
