very monotonous game... no visual information like an interface... the only information is in the description written in black on grey -.-

Fun little shooter, but there unfortunately isnt much more to discover.

have you ever heard of this talk by Jan Willem Nijman? i think following some of the advice there could help you a lot. https://youtu.be/AJdEqssNZ-U

Well, I feel like "something" is missing. I almost got tendinitis playing haha ​​but it's good, congratulations!!

I enjoyed playing this one...not sure if it has repeated playback value. Music was okay. Graphics were basic...the purple laser beams confused me at first.

This fits the theme of the jam well.

Overall it was decent. There didn't seem to be much 'reason' to play such as having a high score or getting or anything. I like the art style and visuals. I also appreciate the addition of sound and music, just wish it they could be a bit better and wouldn't burst my ear drums because of how loud they were :)

The game feel is great for that little experience, great base to expand a shooter. One thing the collision mask of the bullet is big it feels unfair when you get hit. Rule of thumb is to make the bullets collision mask smaller and pick ups masks bigger. Thanks for making the game GJ!

EPIIK game pacing was perfect and it was a fun experience the audio could have been better it wasnt bad but yea it does start hurting after a while but still amazing game.

Very satisfying shooting the gun with the kickback and big bullets!

This is a nice game, though definitely a bit repetitive. I think it might benefit from autofiring since having to mash the mouse button throughout the whole duration of the game is rather tiring.

I liked the enemy variety. There could be different weapons or items as well.

Classic one room top-down shooter. Imho, would be a good idea to have more space to move, some obstacles to hide, and, probably spawn not all enemies at one side.

A good entry overall, I got a score of 127. The music got a little repetitive and I wish I had more guns, but in a game jam there is only so much time :sweat_smile: Keep up the good work \o/

My only criticism is that there isn't an autofire mechanic. Because most of the time you're shooting and how well you do often depends on how fast you can click and not on how you control your character. Instead I'd just make it so it fires at a set rate when you hold down the mouse, but that's just my opinion.

Would add screen shake :D Other than this, its ok

Solid, smooth gameplay! Glad to see a game based off of the 2009 movie The Road (adapted from the novel by Cormac McCarthy). Would be good to see the graphics polished a bit more and some more variation introduced as the game goes on (perhaps other weapons, moving down the street, etc). Either way, good job!

Nice, simple shooter. It did seem a bit strange that in a game about zombies, the main threat was the ranged zombies... I think maybe some of the melee zombies should have been a bit faster.

Good game. Could use a bit more variety in gameplay and the moment-to-momentum isn't super exciting but for a game jam this totally works.
