My high score is 462

Nice game, liked the screen shake and reloading bar you added and also the increase in enemies giving it overall a nice game feel. I also liked the title screen where you would have to shoot at the object to start the game.

LOL! I love the sense of humor in this. I did have bug where I got stuck in the corner, so you might want to look into that.

brownricestudio 2018-12-03 02:59

@shahroz-khan, @supergamersgames Thank you!

itsjustjord 2018-12-03 03:01

Nice! I like it, I kept getting stuck in the walls though aside from that i enjoyed it!

Gotta love that screen shake when you shoot. Gives a nice satisfying feeling (unless your bad at games like me then it turns into an earthquake simulator).

@itsjustjord Thanks!

Funny game, good job, nice graphic design

vickperico 2018-12-04 00:06

It was pretty fun to play! I like the diffent guns available! good job

Great concept, I just couldn't play without getting stuck moving in one direction, which made the game pretty frustrating. The graphics and mechanics were spot on though, I loved the ability to change between guns and the particle effects when you shot an enemy, it really made the game feel alive. If you could just fix the controls, I'm sure i'd...have a blast (gun joke).

andrea 2018-12-04 00:15

Very fun and polished game, except for that pesky getting stuck in a corner thing. I don't know which one I prefer between the Fish Gun and the Even Bigger Gun xD Good job!

salyon 2018-12-04 00:28

The random weapon system is so nice!

I think that some nice additions would be: Damage numbers; Bigger arena; High score;

Good job!

@slizzben @vickperico @jackson-makes-games @andrea @salyon Thank you very much!

brownricestudio 2018-12-04 01:47

@andrea I personally prefer ATM Machine gun over fish gun, but your choice

purrseus 2018-12-04 04:34

Nice game that just works! Apart from the humor I especially like the sound effects! It put a smile to my face :)

casey-macneil 2018-12-04 05:16

Fun game, camera shake adds lots of juice. I thought it was way too easy and then they all came in and murdered me, fun game!

brownricestudio 2018-12-04 12:09

@purrseus @casey-macneil Thank you!

yopox 2018-12-04 15:54

Simple yet fun and dynamic game :thumbsup:

2018-12-05 01:10

I had a really fun time playing the game, the controls were nice and simple. Also the screen shake effect is very good. I liked the fish gun the most.

brownricestudio 2018-12-05 03:11

@yopox , @eric-chadick Thank you very much!

toulou 2018-12-05 20:24

This game is really weird, and this a good thing ! I like the crazy style and the silly ideas, even the weird graphics. The gameplay has a lot of ideas, I like the concept of the different weapons, too bad it ends up being a quite basic shooter because there is so much to do with this concept. But I had a lot of fun with your game, so overall, good job !

eva-abollivier 2018-12-05 20:33

The gameplay concept is very good and is helped by the fact that you have to make split second decisions in the heat of the moment. However, once you know by heart every gun, you know wich one to get and won't sacrifice any more points that way. Otherwise, I liked that you took the time to give some polish with the screenshake.

brownricestudio 2018-12-05 21:37

@toulou , @eva-abollivier thank you!

legavroche 2018-12-07 01:17

Gameplay was simple, but really fun. The difficulty jump made it feel like we were forced to use the bigger gun since they had so much health. I think one thing that could help give the player more choice is to sacrifice points to upgrade their current gun. That way, players still sacrifice points but still have a viable gun that fits their desire playstyle. Great entree!

brownricestudio 2018-12-07 02:43

@legavroche thank you!

mrspeaker 2018-12-07 04:20

It wasn't really obvious when I should switch guns (or what I was sacrificing) - but it was good fun. My absolute favourite part is the "tutorial"... It was really smart: "shoot to begin" means that I absolutely had to understand the basic shooting mechanic to begin. Genius!

suchista 2018-12-07 17:29

intense one! I like the music

brownricestudio 2018-12-07 20:39

@mrspeaker @suchista Thank you!

myfriendtames 2018-12-08 06:08

A really wonderful game!

I love the simple artwork, the sounds and I really love the mechanics and the shot effect!

The game is a little jowel, very nice game :smile: :muscle:

2018-12-11 00:47

Very simple and fun

Like how it gets harder as you progress.

brownricestudio 2018-12-11 20:49

@myfriendtames @braden Thank you!

subtlydramatic 2018-12-12 22:44

I know it was mentioned before, but the camera shaking was super enjoyable and added a lot to the game! I also loved the variety of weapons I got to choose from. Super fun! Great jam game :)

hare-software 2018-12-13 21:56

Finding out how to play with each weapon was a lot of fun, very creative game. Well done!

darkwing00duck 2018-12-14 18:27

ATM gun is awesome :dollar: :dollar: :dollar: :dollar:

brownricestudio 2018-12-14 21:44

@subtlydramatic @hare-software @darkwing00duck Thank you very much! And yeah, ATM gun is strong

2018-12-20 01:29
