I enjoyed it! Also i felt the art was suprisingly fitting, good game!

can't play with my laptop touchpad :(

Pretty good overall. Takes a little bit of play to figure out what's going on but after that it's fairly smooth to move around the arena and start new waves. The graphics and sound were pretty fitting and about the only bug I noticed was that sometimes enemies got themselves stuck in corners.

P.S. I can't speak for everyone else but I'd prefer a zip file I can just unzip (that way I can keep the files for all the games I've played together) rather than an installer (which I then have to go around and hunt down the uninstaller for). Not that that will affect my score obviously.

It's a very enjoyable experience! I liked it.

Things that could be improved: the space button to shoot can be stressful on the fingers, i think the mouse button would be a better choice. The AI always got stuck in the walls which made all the fights quite easy.

Besides this, I think it is a fun game with fun mechanics, and I like how it changes the shooting mechanics.

I got up to level 8 but no one came, I don't know if that is the end of the game or a bug?

Very nice use of the theme, sharing life as your one resource for attacking is neat!

I think it could do with some feedback when an enemy is hit by an attack. Especially with the melee weapon I didn't know if I was doing any damage.

And as @slashee-the-cow said, having to run an installer is a big put-off. I nearly didn't play your game at all!

Cleared 21 waves then I quit since it didn't look like the difficulty will get any higher. I hope I didn't quit just before the boss. Solid game but I'm missing more difficulty and hold-to-fire system.

- Sounds were nice but I was missing firing sounds - Like @slashee-the-cow said, ZIP is better than installer for the sake of the whole trying-the-game process.

hey great compo man ! i find the shooting mechanic a little lackluster but the rest of the game seem solid. well done !

I liked it! Nice little game 😊

Overall, very good. It was a great experience, the gameplay is on point, except maybe a click instead of the space bar fot the attack ? I only had two problems; the ennemy getting stuck in the wall, the game then become a bit too easy. And when I got to level 11 no ennemy came at all. But 48h is a very small amount of time so of course it's normal that it's not perfect. :) Good job man!

Alright, just in case. I uploaded the zip-file in case if people cannot use the installer

tanis 2018-12-05 00:26

The link to the zip file isn't working.. it gives a 404 error :(

It started fun, but then suddenly on level 7 no enemy appeared and I got stuck :( Would be cool to have a recharge meter, to see how many shots and how fast you can fire. Also I didn't understand all of the items and didn't get what to sacrifice.

Ok game. You should remove yourself from the 'humor' category though.

abso 2018-12-24 21:10

honestly great game here, i can tell u put effort in this :D would love for u to rate mine too <3

hdugmag 2018-12-24 22:19

Very well done; the graphics and audio are pretty neat, but I would suggest to change the shooting from space-bar to mouse click.

There's definitely a bug where sometimes no enemies will spawn and the wave is not complete-able, and it seems to just happen randomly. I also couldn't seem to hit anything with the sword/scythe power-up equipped, even if I was ramming my ship head first into an enemy the little blue scythe did no damage. Not a bad little LD game though.

Very interesting style! I enjoyed the looks of the foes.

There are many problems, though. The two I encountered: 1. I could teleport outside of the room. 2. Sometimes enemies get stuck in the walls.

Also, I wish I could see the controls somewhere inside of the game :)

Your itch.io link is broken.

The game feels too incomplete, which affects how I enjoyed it. Nice graphics and sound style. * Comment above * It says Ludum Dare 48 * Enemy movement seems bugged * Sword doesn't do anything * Teleport and sword can be used to escape the room * Button in the middle breaks, unable to continue the game.
