FYI, the windows build contains the Mac/OSX folder, not the _Data folder, so the game wont run on windows 7 :(

Thanks for the heads up! Should be fixed now.

It would be interesting to see an objective past just surviving. Also, you can totally jump up to the top :)

I got those boxes :D
I think that this kind of gameplay is better suited for top-down view as you can better judge the situation and avoid obstacles/enemies. Also being able to fall of the map is a frustrating mechanic that doesn't really enhance gamplay in any way.

This game can be described in one word ... fun. Yeah, the game objects are basic and the Map and Enemies are simplistic ... but in the end what counts for me is that the game is fun to play and this game is amazing in that regard.
Even though there were not many things to do I found myself having fun just shooting stuff and watching a lot of particles appear. +1

Surprisingly stressful :D

At first I was surprised by the difficulty, but when I began to understand the controls and how the enemies transform / attack I was able to play much more effectively. Overall this was a solid game that fit the theme in a strange way.

shooting is very satisfying :D

Nice game. I think you should have a way to exit the game like the escape button. I had to alt + tab out

This game could be pretty good with more work. Definitely needed a death screen and something to tell you to press a button to play again. and also maybe some type of objective.

Good job! I was surprised by enemies quite a bit, but mostly due to random spawns behind me, at least that's how it felt.

First person super crate box! I had a lot of fun

Sweet game! Very compulsive and satisfying gameplay. A bit faster movement and some crazy Quake style maps would be fun to try it with.

I liked jumping up to be a bit safer an\d thee subsequent risk/reward of jumping down again to grab more boxes. Good sound effects as well.

I found kills (especially with the grenade launcher type weapon) very satisfying; the only issue with the particle effects might be that they hang around for too long - otherwise this is quite enjoyable!

Great fun, I wish there was more ammo, though. Unless I'm missing something.

Surprisingly fun to play. Well done.

It was fun to play, and I liked the variety of enemy shapes, movement patterns and travel types. I was a little confused why ammo == score - and due to the FPS perspective and constant high intensity, I had no idea if/when/how my weapon would change. The sound effects fit the with visual theme. It was fun :)

Seriously addictive! I would have liked to be able to see my best score. Nice game, congratulations!
