Highscore was 240

Very challenging game but fun to play. Love the audio and visuals to the game.

Very nice game ! It's really challenging. I love the music, it really adds some panic to the gameplay !
The concept is original, and it fits the theme perfectly :)

Highscore was 590!
Fun and challenging, and well made.

Cool game! I think it would be nice if it got more difficult over time, and you could unlock different weapons the further you got.

This game is the hardest game I played so far. The graphics, sound and music were absolutely great. My highscore was 70.

I like the music a lot. There are no colliders, gameplay is pretty slow to start, highscore was 50. It's a fun idea with more polish can be pretty cool.

Like the concept! With a bit of polish it would be a great game.

Mainly the non standard controls, plus found it hard to keep track of what's happening on the other side.

The guns would feel a bit more satisfying and effective by increasing enemies and just making them weaker. If you are interested, Vlambeer made a great video about tiny tweaks to improve your shooter, check it out here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJdEqssNZ-U

Hope you continue the LDs!

Congratulation for the good work. It's a nice concept!

Good job. this was my kinda game. Very challenging.

There should have been a canon that could see the point so you could defend it. I kept losing because I couldn't see anything except the small area around the canon I was in. Even if I switched knowing they would be close, there was no way for me to shoot them once they were out of either canon's view. Also, having to switch hands from the arrow keys to the mouse was a bit awkward and slowed things down some.

I think it would be really good if you solved those few issues. My highscore was 160.

Good-looking game! Mechanics are good and idea is awesome )
My highscore was 240.

I thinks some indication that weapon could be manipulated would be nice. Some particles if AI is near weapon will be good enough.

Also: minimap and some good feedback when attacking :)

I found it hard to control and never knew when I should go to the other side. I had to get really close (like 4 pixels?) to a cannon to enter it. Am I missing something?

Also using ZXC, mouse and arrows requires 3 hands. Maybe instead use WASD + E + Left/Right Mouse

justinooncx 2016-09-05 11:07

An interesting game! The controls were a bit funny, since the mouse and arrow keys are used by the right hand. Sure, they thankfully aren't used at the same time, but it's still very awkward for my hand to switch between the two over and over. Other than that, it was a reasonably difficult yet fun game.

scriptorum 2016-09-05 17:02

Fun game! It would be improved by a minimap or some way to know where the threats are coming from. I didn't really like the controls, perhaps RMB to possess the weapon would work better? Loved the viscera FX!

Congratulations on your first ludum dare entry. Amazing art and concept. Fun and challenging gameplay.

samuelsousa 2016-09-12 16:37

Cool pixel Art! Inspiring music! Interesting concept.

Didn't like the controls. Would use the arrows or WASD and both Mouse Buttons to get everything done. A little too dificult for me, but a Great Entry nonetheless!

adsilcott 2016-09-12 22:48

Score: 990 It was incredibly hard until I started realizing there were more things to possess than the turrets. A great first entry! Really fun and well made!

Really nice game! I included it in my compilation video series of Ludum Dare 36, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/YGWxJtahV00
