Wow! Nuce creatures and tasty graphics!

cipery 2018-12-04 08:54

Really liked the graphics, plays really good, got into lvl 9 actually, but I was really confused about the merchants.. Why I have to pay with my life? And what if I dont even want the "upgrade"?:)

clayrok 2018-12-04 09:02

You have to update, we took the theme "Sacrifices MUST be done" literally :) At the end of a wave, one of the 3 basic merchants (stats, skills, weapons) appears and if what it sells/takes don't suits you, a random merchant appears too and take something to you randomly to also give you something randomly. Hope you liked it ! :D

Not bad. The idea was solid and the music was really nice, models were also great.

2 things: the sound was really very loud for me (was wearing headphones). And 8 people in my opinion is a little too many for a game jam.

Nonetheless, good job!

clayrok 2018-12-04 10:13

Thanks. We didn't know where to start, it was our first jam and we're students in a video game dev school so we just met in our school without organizing anything :)

slipultura 2018-12-04 10:26

For the sound we have had a few problems, all the sounds are not incorporated and some are not in the good place

squaredev 2018-12-04 10:34

Nice graphics and nice spin of the theme. I wish there were some kind of hit effects when an attack lands, like a spark or an explosion or something, but this is just nitpicking. Good job!

vilix64 2018-12-04 10:48

Very polished entry. Good job. :slight_smile:

elfunck 2018-12-04 10:59

Love the level generating system.

The robot animation is a little "rigid" but it was cool to play!

Well done ;)

nanocube75 2018-12-04 11:51

Not bad, actually really good!

mrjackhpil 2018-12-04 13:17

Pretty good for a start. Good luck on next projects. But I don't like this graphic so much.

scottgoldsmith 2018-12-04 13:48

I don't see how it fits into the theme at all and there's zero story, which is dissapoiting because it's a beautiful game.

cipery 2018-12-04 13:57

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about the theme of this jam when I played your game :D

I really like this as a start of something little bigger (if the time would allow), like, player could specialize in some build, melee (upgrade armor, melee weapons, melee splash/AoE damage), or maybe pure ranger (upgrade ranged weapon, slowing traps, automatic cannons mounted on player) or like "tinker", who could build towers etc.

Nice game!

rektorgladowski 2018-12-04 14:44

The game is quite nice, but i personally think that you should make everything faster :)

daruudaruu 2018-12-04 17:25

The game idea is cool, but please, remember to give proper visual or audio feedback to the player whenever they're hit or they hit an enemy. It could have been a lot better!

sapphiris 2018-12-04 17:25

Good game. Something I miss is some feedback when you hurt the monsters or when they hurt you. But I like the idea and the graphics.

isaque-picao-sanches 2018-12-04 17:39

enjoyed playing it, though there's a lot of little things that could be improved

johnnyginard 2018-12-04 17:51

Very cool idea! Good job! :smile: :top:

carbonara 2018-12-04 22:24

Nice game, the graphics are awesome, the music works, maybe we miss some feedback like previously said when we are taking damage, the aim with the mouse is sometime lock in a direction which can be frustrating. I probably want more massive destruction weapons with of course more ennemies to fit them ahah. I can feel the hard work behind this. Thanks for this and nice job guys!

takayamushi 2018-12-04 23:11

Pretty well done! There was a big lack of feedback when attacking/taking damage. An appropriate sound or vfx can change everything! Also some sound we're very loud and too long, making them take the whole sound space. Other than that, Good job!

adrian-guevara 2018-12-05 00:00

Music it's cool, models too, but I think there is a lack of AI. Yes, there are a lot of enemies and some of them with diferents attacks, but I have felt it like it's only a simple following script. I kinda like the shop but I think in general the contras are too contras in relation to the pros.

nick-rafalski 2018-12-05 02:42

Great work! a ton of polish for a gamejam game. I really was feeling the sacrifices as the game progressed.

py-g 2018-12-05 09:35

good looking, well done!

kilelock 2018-12-05 09:40

Awesome guys! Really liked the game, enemy types are really great and dash is op as hell xD. Nice job to all of you! ^^

Pd: I got a bug in one run, when I got to wave 2 I push E in the red terminal and it crashed :C

adventureislands 2018-12-05 10:12

Nice graphics and usage of theme. The randomizer merchant should really tell you what exactly you got and lost when you purchase from him, I didn't always notice any difference after purchasing from them. Also most of the weapons didn't feel all that good, they were either very slow or flied over enemies like the grenades. The basic rapid fire gun seemed to work the best.

cristiano-t 2018-12-05 10:18

Very viciant. fantastic the AI of the game ! And the music is perfect for the game ! Great game congratulations!

emmatw 2018-12-05 20:09

Very nice game, I liked the design of the enemies, a lot of things in the game felt really polished, like the graphics, controls and especially the menu. It would have been nice to get some more feedback when hitting enemies or getting hit by them, like small animations/effects or sound of impact. Great work though!

papodrav 2018-12-06 21:58

Thanks for all those comments , really nice to read thiose , and really interesting! @emmatw Thanks you a lot's , I'm the UI designer so I'm so glad you liked those menus

raitozan 2018-12-07 18:27

Hey Good job guys ! Really like the sacrifice mechanic of upgrades, you've a great looking game with its universe, that feels neat !

(vous venez de quelle école au fait ? :P une partie de mon équipe et moi sommes aussi des étudiants venant d'une école de jeu, Gamagora à Lyon :D)

mrleeperry 2018-12-07 21:46

Nice work! Took a second to figure out the weapon swapping, but once that was sorted out I was off and running. Really well done!!!

slipultura 2018-12-08 09:04

nekonyo 2018-12-08 13:04

There could be an improvement on game balance, everything is good but I ended playing for over half an hour one time. Maybe scaling the variety and power of the attackers may be interesting, more dangerous and quicker to kill by increasing a little the fire rate

james-dunlap 2018-12-08 18:35

I enjoyed this entry. Your team created an enjoyable game, but it could use a bit more explanation up front. It took me a while to figure out that after each wave, the terminals appear in the center, and I have to use them to move on. Also, a radar would have been helpful given the size of the arena. Overall, though, very enjoyable.

maxklimenok 2018-12-09 08:02

Cool to see that you have a working product!

Ways to improve: + add radar or minimap to find mobs stuck on the edge of the map. + some sort of cursor showing where AOE splash will be. + balancing mobs and characters speed. + scrolling through weapons is not very convenient, binding weapons to 1-9 would be more suitable in the heat of the battle.

Liked the idea of changing walls on the arena! I managed to pass 2 waves. And died on 3rd one.

Any way, nice work, well done for 72 hours!

vlad-ilisan 2018-12-12 14:25

Nice entry. Just a suggestion...I think everything should be faster, faster projectile, faster movement, enemies etc.

rodrigo-denubila 2018-12-19 12:30

Good game! Graphics are really good. Animations and Audio need more work, but this doesn't affect the gameplay. Good job!

jk5000 2018-12-19 13:51

The graphics and music is really good in this game. The gameplay idea is okay, but I would have loved to see something new and interesting. Overall is this a fine LD game.

dorukh 2018-12-21 12:47

Game flows really smoothly, fits well with the theme, and overall graphics work in unison. :) Congrats!
