Yah ur fat bc I opened it and when I clicked the play button (which is very hard to figure out is the play button, I assume this is some sort of trap so that only muslims can figure it out as your play button is clearly a hate crime, I will get to that now) and then the game waited around for a second, not frozen but I guess it was contemplating whether or not it really wanted to do what it was about to or maybe just confirming I was really muslim, which apparently it assumed I was because after those 2 or so seconds of contemplation, my cursor was hidden to prevent me from escaping the trap, and now that I was locked in the game opened full on physical violence on me by machine-gunning my eardrums with the loudest, most terrifying, PTSD inducing sound I have ever heard. There was no escape at that point as my cursor was locked, but, with trembling fingers, covering my ears as best I could (which had little effect as I wasn't covering them with my hands I was just pushing my headphones on harder, but I didn't realize that as I was in complete shock), I called for backup from Task Manager, which, if it had arrived a second later, I believe I would have been dead at this time. THIS GAME IS A TRAP FOR MUSLIMS AND IF YOU TRY TO PLAY IT YOU WILL. BE. ASSAULTED. Going to PTSD therapy now.

This game is pretty rough around the edges, but it's very impressive to have written from scratch in 72 hours! The inventory and hotbar systems work quite well. I wish there was a little more visual feedback on where my bullets were going. Nice job!

The inventory system was well made, the rest could do with more work. The world is plain grey for me. Also I had no sound and it felt like I was dying for no reason. One of your shaders is not linking: `error: interpolation modifier mismatch for varying parameter (named frag_texIndices) between shader stages` `New light shader 8`

Interesting project for something which had ben done in less than 3 days. However it could considerably improved. I understand your first will, trying to do a fun FPS. I like the main page with a disturbed scripture. However the map could be a little bit more big. Thank you for this entry ++

@someone Thanks for reporting the error and problems! I have had some other problems with the shaders on various different hardware. Could you see the enemies? When they get close they will shoot you (I didn't have enough time to add their arms and have them aim with visible weapons though so this isn't obvious if the sound isn't working).

I'm not sure what could be causing the sound problem. I'm using an extension to SDL that just does basic sound, and I might not be using it right. I will replace it with OpenAL in some later version (might be a little while before I do a big post-jam version) but I don't think it is worth investigating right now considering I will be re-writing the sound code anyway.
