I enjoyed the upgrades! What am i going to get next i thought? :D
Weird.... could not upgrade Everything else seemed absolutely fine
And my initials here right? What a great implementation of the theme. Pretty solid arena shooting, zombie spawns are a bit difficult, but overall really solid. I also enjoyed, pointing my mouse to the left then walking backwards with d and pretending I was moon walking, way too much.
I really liked an enjoyed your game :)
Great job! I wish I had a little bit more time to sign the contract for upgrades, but had fun playing otherwise!
@commanderstitch That's the feeling I was going for. Glad that worked out. :smile:
@crosenlund79 Oh, that is weird! Did you stand near enough to the devil? Some text should pop-up that you can press 1 and/or 2 to buy different powerups.
@strugglesingamedevelopment Haha, I found that weirdly satisfying as well. :wink: The harsh difficulty was intentional, but I'm sure it could do with some better balancing.
@paragonraptors The short time is intentional, to force the player to make a quick decision. (The devil is a busy man. :wink:) Might have went a bit too far with it though.
@evolus Thanks!
Thanks for playing and the feedback everybody! :smile:
I really liked the game, but the randomness of the contracts felt bit off. Multiple times I got twice the option of piercing buullets, while I've already bought it before. Which feels like lost oppertunity to get a useful upgrade. But otherwise really fun little game. Really nice adaptation of the theme, liked that very much.
@jka - ah might be the issue :)
Nice game!
Simple but good looking graphics, and nice use of the theme. I like that it's challenging.
@JinTsen The randomness can be a bit harsh at times. All the upgrades stack though. So if you bought piercing bullets, your bullets will pass through 1 enemy. If you get it again it will pass through 2 enemies, etc. So it can be very useful to buy the same upgrade multiple times! I should probably put that in the description though, as I don't think it's obvious.
Also, I found that it sometimes better to buy nothing at all and just get through a wave by having more health points. :slight_smile:
Thanks for playing and thanks for your feedback! :smile:
@furtive-pygmy @jakobthequizguy Thanks! :smiley:
Cool game.The idea with upgrades that player gets from devil is great.I think you should make the time when you speak with devil longer, atleast first 4 waves.Sounds fit very well. Good job!
@victorcrafty I want to keep that time short, but having it a bit longer for the first couple of waves is probably a good solution. Thanks!
Really fun, I LOVE the devil laugh effect :)
@deathbysnail Thanks! I probably spend too much time on that, but I'd like to think it was worth it. :laughing:
Hiscore: 2 stages. Self-explanatory. Very hard. But fun! I like the 8-bitty music a lot.
@lyghtningwither Thanks! I'm not that experienced with making music, so I was a bit insecure about it. Glad you liked it. :)
Neat game. Great concept.
Enjoyable game! The graphics and sounds work very well together and the movement feels very good!
Nice Game ! Make me remember my Sinclair Spectrum old days. Good idea, well implemented.
Really really cool! Made it to wave 11. Maybe the devil could just stay on for a little longer, cause I couldn't decide for upgrades fast enough :D
Gave me a bit of an adrenalin rush. I had to decide abour the upgrades quickly, then I had to shoot even quicker :slight_smile: Nice graphics as well.
@jka Yeah, I have nothing against randomness in general. I did not realise that first piercing bullets would only penetrate 1 enemy. Knowing that it makes sense to have it randomized like that. I did realize that sometimes buying nothing is the better option. It's really intersting feature that you can kill yourself by buying a contract with only 1 life left. I just had to try it ^^
@matt-pattabhi @niteb @m4cgregor @barrier @tudvari Thanks for playing and for the feedback! :smile:
@jintsen Haha, that's one of those oversights that became a feature, because it made me smile. :wink:
Totally wins the award for Best Satan Sprite 20XX Ludum Dare 44. Well done. Fun game. Turned the music off and played the battle theme from Xenoblade 2 for my stream, they all loved it.
@madjackmcmad Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! If I can watch a replay of that stream anywhere, let me know, I'd love to see it. :slight_smile:
Fun game with a simple concept, but not the most original take overall. The game as a whole seems to get challenging quickly and I find it quite captivating. I do find the contrast between the pathway and the grass a bit eye-catching, though.
@cameron-dunlap Thanks for playing and for the feedback! :smiley:
Very simple yet fun game, i really enjoyed it! Great job!
@lubaka Thanks!
Awesome game. Simple concept but really effectively put together. Congrats!
