I liked the loop of weakening, stunning, and capturing monsters, and the risk/reward when large numbers swarm you. Didn't really understand how capturing made you stronger though?

Good effort!

Liked the capturing of monsters to buy upgrades, not bad really, should continue the project :)

I like the game :dog:

Pretty decent. I like how damaging them also makes them easier to capture. Would be nicer if it wasn't kind of laggy.

Very strong submission, Would benefit from some "end" of sorts, but the game is great as it is!

very interesting game -- really liked capturing and then using the lives to upgrade -- thanks for making this

Spent some time playing it. Best strategy seems to be: upgrade stun cooldown, range, movement speed and enemy capture speed. Then you can just run around the map and capture all the aliens. Even though I sometimes had over 60 monsters captured, the game was not lagging at all, so that was quite impressive.

And I was able to escape :wink: https://youtu.be/gWu5bKP0Fto

@jorbits I'm glad you played it so much and I'm sure there are many more bugs than just the one you found :smile: I hope you had fun regardless :smiley:

the movement between walking and shooting is a little bit buggy. i'm stucking cause of the enemys. i love the style/graphic. The sound is really nice. :hearts:

Amazing polish here and attention to detail! Movement and animations are great.

raphnika 2019-05-02 07:54

All in all it is a great entry. The movement, even though some time laggy, feels quiet nice. Good job!

Wow! Really great game! Picked it up really fast and everything was really well done.

It was fun to play and the game looks very nice. The default sound volume was a bit too quiet on my pc compared to other stuff. Would be great if there were more fun upgrades to buy and enemies.

Fun game! I could play this for hours, although you do get pretty op if you upgrade your stun bomb.

**THE GOOD** Very fun and addicting core loop. Graphics were polished and sound effects and music fit with the atmosphere. The capture mechanic was fluid. Was consistently challenging and balanced.

**THE BAD** Being stuck in shrubs and rocks didn't feel right. It didn't feel like the game punishing you but rather the physics engine, if you know what I mean.

Overall, this is a very good submission and a job well done.

Herding enemies, damaging them then stunning and capturing them all is really fun! Graphics are cool! The game does get too easy when you figure out the best tactic and upgrade yourself a bit. But still a very good game!

Thats an amazing game. The world design looks really good and the gamplay is great. It has a high replayability. Good job!

copper-aardvark-games 2019-05-04 21:55

Really nice! I had lots of fun and only 1 bug I think I ran into ;)
