SORRY MOM I didn't make it to the Broccoli!

This was more fun than I had expected. The pace was a bit slow, maybe it would be cool to make everything a bit faster like 50%, but that's just a minor detail :)

Overall pretty solid game, I liked the Vampire Survivors mechanics, very entertaining :)

idk how these games are so addictive, but you had me hooked. fun little game with a cool upgrade path.

I managed to kill the broccoli boss, this was fun. The beets are most annoying because they are shooting so I was prioritizing them. I left lot of coins on ground :sweat_smile:

Ok - the game is really pretty fun. Played several rounds until I finally beat the boss and was kind of sad that the game has ended there.

The game itself is hard but I like that really much. But if I could make a whish then those two things would be really cool:

1. An endless mode. Really you need an endless mode. 2. Audio (Sound effects and music)

Overall a pretty cool game which made it into my Ld52-game-collection on itch :-)

I love your game, it's a lot of fun! This is simple and very effective, and the upgrade system offers interesting choices. Congrats!

This game is hard but satisfying! Good job!

The core gameplay is solid. The difficulty varies significantly on your upgrade rolls. The first playthrough I didn't get any good upgrade and got overrun by carrots, and the second time I tried I was able to breeze through because of the early bullet pierce upgrade I got. Overall it is a solid entry.

Funny story line. Felt bad for the mother every time I sucked and died. Good core concept of a arcade vampire survivors like game. Only thing I would comment on would be the lack of audio. The art was amusing, evil carrot was the most interesting lol.

Really fun game! I enjoyed a lot) Carrots caught me off guard but than the game begins to tighten. I did my best to make wife happy)

I like it but really wish it had some sound effects. Being stuck on one screen instead of being able to wander around was interesting.

Nice gameplay, I liked it a lot.

nice gameplay. played 5 times. only on of the attempts I had good upgrades and managed to make the wife proud! any sound effect would make this even better. 1 slight problem I had is the look of the bullets were bit of an eye sore for me. It s difficult to see, specially when there are multiples of them flying about on the screen. I had to stop playing because my eyes were bit watery looking at them (could very well be very personal thing). perhaps a darker border for the bullets would make them stand out a little more.

Would have loved some audio, fun though :D

I have a feeling someone doesn't like their vegetables :P

I had fun playing this. You did well designing all of it in the time you did.

nice work! :D

That carrot needs a nuking. Was fun, needs a little balancing but understandably hard to do within the time limit. Had fun~

I really enjoyed playing your game! I liked that you need some strategy for dealing with the different enemy types. I almost beat the broccoli boss but eventually gave up after a few tries because my finger got really sore from clicking the button :)

Thank you for making the game!

Dude this was so great. Happy wife = happy life. I'm so in love with roguelikes and the progression system that comes with it. This was awesome!

Thanks for letting me play this!

Ooh, pretty fun game! :slight_smile: I like the visuals and the upgrade options, and the difficulty and pace are quite good! Sounds would've made it even better, but hey! :stuck_out_tongue:

Good job!

Solid little game, nice execution of a classic idea! I liked the difficulty curve, it was tough but it doesn't throw you straight off the deep end so you get the chance to ease into it. Good work!
