Very cute, I like the banana gun. Graphics are clean, the controls are smooth. I'd like to have more sound effects, and much more challenge. Maybe an upgrade with a short burst of machine-gun bananas.

The game has some interesting animations, well drawn characters and well made player movement/shoot, but you could have made some connections that would improve the game, including some stuff that i even forgot in my game (hitmarker sound) XD

Birds usually don't sing at night, that background sound made it feel like was morning and my eyes were telling that it was night. A splash effect for the banana could be more interesting instead of the Pew Pew! Because you made a dark setting, the vibrant collors, wobble animations and sounds were always conflicting with your level design, u could still use them, but you would have to make some changes so they would fit together! I indeed had fun playing your game! I love top down shooters! You really did a lot for working alone and your first game jam!

I hope you had a great experience while doing the game and i wish you the best!

Don't forget that reviewing other people's games will make more people come to play your game so you can have that delicious feedback! hahahhaha

Cute game!

Congratulations on your first Game Jam! Its pretty solid. Character/enemy art and animations are cool.

More sound effects would have added a lot. Also ramping up the difficulty would have made it more challenging. Upgrade mechanics would keep it interesting.

Thank You each and everyone of you for your review. It really means a lot & motivates me as a beginner game developer.

The graphics are so crisp and crystal clear! I love the banana gun!!! :laughing: Cute art and really responsive, fun gameplay. I like the sound effects too. Please keep developing more games, you are amazing at it! :smiley_cat:

Grats on your first Jam! I loved the cute graphics and animations

The banana gun is hilarious!! :laughing: I had lots of fun playing this game! Especially when shooting, the particles effects were on point! Greato Jobu! :smile:

When I saw in the description "Save your friends", I assumed there would be like friendly characters you had to defend, but ah well. As a top-down twin stick, it's pretty solid gameplay wise. It seems like you die SUPER easy once an enemy gets near you, and that health amount is a bit misleading. Like maybe instead of "100", it could be like hearts or something, since it seemed like I was dying in 2 hits or something. I think you have a good base here, but it needed some variety.

Good game! I liked the banana gun but the game was a little bit hard for me due to the sudden appearance of monsters :cat:

I really loved the animations - the way character moves when moving. Also the banana gun was a great idea to keep it family friendly rated :rofl:. The audio could be more developed.

Game play works well and also the light system. It's fun to play.

You should add a sound fx when banana explode on monster face, it would make the action more juicy.

Good job.

I have the same feeling than doomschmuck. I don't know if I missed something, but am I suppose to have a next phase after the 1st shooting phase? Am I supposed to kill enough monsters or find a path somewhere?

trigueiro 2020-04-26 02:08

I think i was the rating #20 xD. Anyway, I very much enjoyed the humor and mood of the game. The head bobbing is fun to watch and the banana gun is just hilarious. Good work! I would probably suggest a bit bigger "arena"

abiral 2020-04-26 04:48

@warabii No there is not such features (as of now), It gets harder eventually when you kill the monsters and survive. Yeah I agree with @doomshmuck There are a lot of things to be improved. Thanks for the feedback 👍

I am horrible at this game, but it makes up for my lack of skill with all its charm! Really liked the intro, and I really did LOL when the monkey said "LOL". Very cute game based on the theme, and really dug the graphics and audio design for the whole experience.

Very solid entry! Well done and good luck!

Cute little shooter game. I liked the banana gun, and the balanced mix of monster's with their varied health and speed.

Congrats on completing your first jam game. It's simple but a complete package, so you should be happy about that. Keep it up!

Wish that the banana gun could fire a little faster, like as fast as you can click the mouse. This game would benefit from having a faster pace. Still good job overall! Conveys what you're supposed to do very well.
