When I try to attack a townsperson they push me and the game freezes on html5, so I havent been able to try it yet! But the style looks interesting!

@kantieno Sorry it wasn't working, had a few issues with different builds. Those issues are all fixed and should be playable now, if you'll give it a second chance.

Sounds and looks funny, but froze (lag) when do an attack :cry:

Glad I got the chance to play a fixed version. Still a bit buggy with knocking characters into the houses, but the concept is interesting and definitely hits the theme.

Here's my play: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/345392408

@vlad-dae Oh no! Thought that was fixed, but apparently not..

dwemthy 2018-12-06 16:48

@vlad-dae Are you using Chrome? Tried it out again and it works in Firefox but glitches out in Chrome

vlad-dae 2018-12-07 10:32

@dwemthy Yes, Chrome. And now it's working :thumbsup:

I liked the game! :smile: Good work!

Great use of the theme! If somewhat dark and sinister haha. The gameplay worked smoothly for me on Chrome and I had no problems attacking or dragging the bodies to the cave. The audio was nicely done as well.

Good game! Nice audio and gameplay. One improvement would be making it so the characters can't walk on the houses because the player can't get through the houses to capture them. Fun game !

great visuals, and loved the animations, especially the villagers. Found it annoying that they could walk on their buildings but I couldn't. Got stuck waiting for them to move somewhere I could reach them. Also, slow movement while dragging made me lose a few times. Figured pretty quickly the right strategy is to kill a villager so others will chase you, lure them to the cave and then kill them. Pretty decent entry, great overall creepy aesthetic.

Neat little game. In the beginning I walked straight into the cave and died before I realized I had to drag other people to it. The music was nice if not a little repetitive by the end, and the mechanics were fun. It was great how the other characters started chasing and attacking you when you start dragging another person. Added a bit more tension to the game. Overall, good job :thumbsup:

Cute and horryfing game! Very stressful to see my life running out, really got me motivated to hunt villagers. Once I brought a victim, but the clawrm got me instead, so maybe I missed some mechanics? Anyway, very enjoyable.

The first thing I have to say is that the audio was awesome. I loved it, it was upbeat and fun without being annoying. I agree with @emperor-eagle comment about the people being able to go into the houses, but luckily I managed to find other people. Thanks for making this game it was really fun.

Neat aesthetic and implementation of the theme, but the timer could be a bit slower. Keep it up!

eli-delventhal 2018-12-23 23:49

Cute little game! Was fun and overall a good execution of a simple concept. Takes too long to drag the villagers, though. 75% of the time I was playing it was just dragging their bodies.

joeyrosicka 2018-12-24 02:46

Very cool concept! It seems a bit buggy, though - I was unable to interact with anything after clicking the quit button (which didn't seem to do anything).

I really like the mechanic of other villagers aggro-ing on you if they see you kill someone! It adds the interesting question of whether I should go for a kill or wait.

One Concept I Liked: * I liked the game's use of the theme as it was very present in the game and there does not seem to be a dissonance between the gameplay and the theme.

One Concept I Disliked: * I disliked the animations because they felt unpolished and they were very unrealistic and abnormal.

The mood is unsettling and a bit creepy which fits the theme. Graphics are nice with the suitable music. Some things that maybe could be improved are the walking animations. And the range of the club.
