Please let me know if the sound ends up working for you on Windows. I had trouble with OpenAL, but it seems that installing it in your system makes it work, so fingers crossed...

Great game!

Game feel is good, I really like the pixelart + simple shapes aesthetic, and the monochrome artstyle looks great as well.

Enemies getting closer, presenting a bigger target, is very clever (even if unintentional :) and really scratches my "design itch", hah.

Neat stuff!

I really like the look of the game, I used low poly geometry but yours looks even better with a strong color scheme. Great job!

The subtle impacts and audio (which worked fine on Windows), on enemy hits work so well, it feels lovely and crunchy. My only issue is that after I tried spinning slowly in a circle as a tactic, that seemed to work a bit too well, because I started acing every wave.

But that's not a big deal in such a short jam game, and I ended up playing way more of this than the other games I've tried so far. Thanks for the game!

Sadly I can't get it to run on Windows due to the OpenAL issue. I'll download it on Linux later. Looking for to this, it looks awesome.

Nice entry! Audio worked fine for me on Windows. Very fun and easy to understand. I like the simplistic art style. I think this would be a good one to keep working on and see where you can take it.

I'm really impressed that you create a html build of your game with your own engine ! The game itself is simple but works good and I like how the movement of the ennemies can be stressfull (as they don't move continuously)

I like the minimalism in this game. It's simple but effective! It is a pretty addicting game, and clearing the waves felt pretty satisfying. I'd love to see more enemy types, perhaps some that don't just move straight at you but also around you so that it is a little harder to aim at them. I got to wave 45! Good game!

Nice minimalistic game, had a couple of playthroughs and got to wave 32 before dying. I can imagine some enemies that have different move patterns or something to give the game more variation in later stages. Uh, and some kind of (local) highscore would be great so I can play towards beating my own score as a long term goal.

Nice job! I had a lot of fun with this! There is a lot of good game feel in here from the SFX to the explosions of the enemies, etc that make shooting them really satisfying! I also enjoyed the different sizes that had you either focus-firing them down or just spraying all over! Great job creating this in such a short time frame!

nice game. would be nice to have more influence / controls over bullets / character

Nicely polished, and a really fair difficulty curve! I managed to get 50

valyn-tyler 2022-10-08 21:07

Really fun! Very arcade-y. Very replayable! I only wish that there'd be some crunchy audio to go with it

I had a lot of fun playing this game. The game plays very well and I like the simplistic art style. Audio worked fine for me as well. Well done!

Sounds works fine here ( WINDOW ) . The game is fun and addictive my maxmimum level is 47. Maybe the progressing curve is a bit slow on start, I would have gladely play a third one if I was not bored with the idea to play the first levels.

misfire-dev 2022-10-11 13:30

really nice arcade style game, smashing the lil cubes is so satisfying so far my best score is 39

sparkysa 2022-10-11 19:37

Loved this!!! actually got so addicted. 46 was my best attempt, would love to see different power ups or upgrades maybe even build paths like sniper or machine gun. a LOT of fun to play tho!!!

xcarl 2022-10-12 00:39

Very polished. The sound effects and particles when defeating the enemies are awesome. Super fun game!

fabula-rasa 2022-10-12 16:51

Sound works fine for me. It's kinda low, but I can hear everything.

The whole game works fine, and I didn't notice any bugs. It's kinda surprising at the start, as the enemies sort of slowly creep towards you (instead of running at you like crazy). Graphics are very simple, but the game is visually pleasant - colors are nice and the geometric animations of the enemies dying are very cool.

Well done! 38 was my best score.

Impressive work on the visuals! Minimalist, but tons of efforts on the feed-back and FX. The juiciness here is top-notch! However while the sensations are great, I found the game a bit too easy. Even though I had sometime a great number of enemies slowly creeping at me (which create great tension), it never became really unmanageable, and I never felt I had to take risks. I was frequently able to clean the whole screen. Maybe the game could step up the difficulty a bit to create more action! Anyway, it was still a solid entry. Good job!

Really fun game! Made it to wave 45 which felt like an accomplishment haha. Love seeing games made in custom engines!! Ran very well, nice job! Great minimalist art. Nice enemy design, each one felt different and challenging. Well balanced; it felt like I was barely making it each wave. Some power ups or other strategy variations would take this to the next level. Loved this game!

danial-jumagaliyev 2022-10-21 08:35

This was really satisfying to play! There's definitely lots of minimalistic effects, which I adore and the fact that you used your engine really inspires me to try to do something like this in the future! Great job!
