This game was awesome! Loved how you had to talk to each bullet before being able to fire it. Very creative and funny!

Loving the noby noby boy/adventure time vibes, game is also super fun to play.
Yo, this game is some good fun. Hydezeke very nice game
That was extremely disturbing. I loved every second of it!
Awesome art, the atmosphere was great. Music was really cool, liked how the end credits were synchronized with the music. The artwork reminded me of Breath of the Wild.
Fired my mom out of a cannon, 10/10, would pull the trigger again...
Seriously though, absolutely fantastic! Everything from the music, the sound, the graphics, to the dialog was right on point. I'm impressed. The way you handle the dialog, where it starts when you look at a townsperson and continues where you left off, that's amazing. You nailed the theme too.
This is one of my favourite games in the Jam. I really love the polish you brought to it, the music is nice, the graphics are awesome but the gameplay is what kept me playing. Its a shame no one else has reviewed this because it is amazing. You know, I laughed so hard when I heard Pops talk, I just thought "That is perfect". You've put a very interesting spin on the theme and I applaud you for that. Really great job.
Very fun. The graphics are beautiful. Great work!LOVE IT!But I only open a gun：>
Awesome job! I saved the village with only 3 people left. Loved the concept and the little dialogue scenes with each villager. And a very satisfying conclusion. It would be funny to play more on the guilt of firing each one, like having them yelp as they fly through the air. :)
BTW, in the "low" performance version, I was unable to use WASD to move. I had to reload and pick the high performance version.
Wow! I'm going to have dreams about this tonight! Great art, gameplay, music, and the soundfx were perfect too! The best game I've played so far!
Wow, funny how just a context is enough to create attachment. I genuinely felt bad shooting those bullet people. But it made sense, the game has a narrative and it makes sense within the universe. The execution also paid off really well. Too bad the enemies don't seem to do anything except fly around ? Top ratings for everyone, the only problem is maybe in the sound and sound balancing but no game is perfect!
Really great job on the atmosphere and how alive the whole game felt, wonderful work.
I loved this game. I basically killed everyone in my village though not sure I had a village left at the end.
Very nice game, it is very immersive !
Nice game in all aspects! No more villagers in town, would play again. 11/11
Awsome and memorable in every aspect. Thanks for the experience.
Excellent game! The pacing, the introduction to the mechanic with the door and the first 3 monsters, very well executed, art is also on point! Every time i missed a shot i felt a little bad for the bullet friends, it just lack a lose condition.
Love the music! Really adds to the experience. I also liked the main mechanic of grabbing the town people to shoot at the evil eye clouds. I left no villager alive. :D
@zaza Technically the lose condition is running out of bullets.
I considered having the enemies attack you (the player), but I worried about whether people would feel too rushed/endangered to pay attention to any dialogue.
I ADORED every second of it!!!!! The only thing I'd change a bit would be the color palette and make the mountains and environment a bit more interesting. (But if I'm complaining about colors you can imagine how much I love the rest.)
Okay, real talk: this is my favorite LD43 game so far. Everything about this is incredibly well made. You should be proud!
Def my favorite game of the jam so far. Saved the village... but now there's no one left to live there :(
Amaizing game! Probably best game so far. I ran out of bullets coz i used them agains eachother... Man I'm a bad person. GJ!
This is amazing! Funny story along with fun gameplay. Best game I've played yet!
THIS GAME IS FANTASTIC!! The characters and dialog is spectacular. The music that plays is so well placed! And the mechanic is just clever and would love to see you go further with this. How did you do your dialog system? It's so quirky and fun looking and I love it!
I loved this little thing! It would have been great for the village to be a little hostile to you as you sacrifice them. But yeah, great!
@jeplmr Thank you! That means so much, aaa
@mattwagar I'll give you the run down!
1. Friend scripts determine which Friend (bullet) if any the player is close to/looking at. 2. Each Friend keeps track of their dialogue progress (number of characters so far in current string as well as which string we're on). The focused Friend gets to progress these numbers. 3. The UI detects that there is a Friend in focus, and asks it for its current 'display string' (a subset of the current dialogue)
This ends up making it so each character keeps a bookmark on its dialogue basically- hope that was helpful!
WOW! A great game overall, every part of it is well executed. I beat the final boss by sacrificing the entire village.... no one is left. sorry for them.
Hey this is so wonderful and memorable and i'm gonna go make noise about it to other people and reference it when i talk about game jams ok bye
@swanijam Aw sweet! I appreciate it!
The conversations are fantastic. I liked it very much!
5/5 on everything, awesome game!!
i love this game
This was AWESOME. What a game, ultra cool concept and execution. At first I was talking to every bullet carefully and a minute later I was like get in the freaking gun and shut up. It made me laugh and the art is very cute :) Well done! It’s one of the best I’ve played.
Amazing game! Great art and well designed, enjoyed every second of it. Maybe it would have been great to have the colors a bit more intense, but anyway it's fantastic! And I have to love the detail when you shoot them into the sky xD
ahh, what a wonderful game this is! It's so charming and the world is so fun to be in. Lot's of little details that make this game so fun to experience over and over.
really fun, if you wanted better webGL performance you need to bake that lighting!!!
@pandan Ah!! That's definitely where I went wrong! Thanks for the advice!
this was actually really good! sadly i killed everyone in the village :cry:
I love this entry, I like everything about it. Seriously mad props to you!!!
I just saved and killed the entire village at the same time :(
This is a really sad game... BUT GOOD JOB! :D
I simply love it ! Very sad game but the mood is really well done. Maybe having a little more characters but with which you could interact more would have made the game even more sad !
Everything is working. I believe you did a perfect entry.
A cute but a sad game at the same time. This comment goes to the people way over to the stratosphere. Great job!
the movement and firing mechaninc is really polished, feells really good to play. also very nice bullets firends. audio also! nice nentry!!! :^)
I like the multiple endings so much !!!
@elven I'm SO happy you found #2!
Congratulations! Much deserved, best game overall of those I tried.
@disperse Thanks so much!
At first I thought "What the...?" but I loved it! xD
