Really cool art style!
Really fun and octane action game, lots of juice and polish as expected from Mors and a very banging soundtrack! Also, liking the twist on the theme, spinning your cargo around to crush aliens sounds really cool
Art, sound, gameplay- everything looks so great and polished. Very cool game!
Damn, that's an actual game with menus, competent gameplay and no jank. Pretty good for 72 hours.
Swinging the cargo and smashing it into the aliens feels really nice. Loved the music too!
Very cool entry ! The graphics are well polished and the audio rocks. Fun idea to fight with the package !
Damn what a fast paced, responsive, and polished game! The visuals and audio were really well done, I did find the game a little on the hard side however. But maybe its time for me to git gud.
Ok, this is just a finished product, I'm not even sure if I want any features added to it. It's pure joy to play as is!
Great game here. Visuals and audio are polished AF. I also appreciate that the entire cable kills an enemy and not just the crate. What the heck was that cow for though XD ?
I have some issues though. Some of this might just be me needing to git gud so take it with a grain of salt lol.
The crate swinging being unweildy is fine since it's supposed to be that way, however I feel like the amount of fuel you get from an enemy is a little too less at times. Especially considering the amount of time it takes to actually kill atleast one enemy sometimes. Along with that, you kinda end up in unwinnable situations when having to go back to the base after a delivery or when you start a new delivery. I really feel like you should either start with full health, or with some health added to your current amount when you're starting a new delivery.
None the less, great game all around. Unfortunately due to my issues mentioned above I was only able to get somewhat close to the planet in the second delivery. It's probably just me sucking at the game though lol.
Awesome mechanic and graphics!
smashing feel is awesome, I quite like it overall
Really cool game! I like the music a lot, and the speed cap makes cruising so pleasing! Couldn't figure out how to manage fuel efficiently so my best is 2 deliveries. Cheers :)
Another certified Mors & cato banger
The first thing I should mention and what I loved the most was sound and music. Reminded me a bit of sonic and retro games I used to play :D Other than that, the overall game flow and gameplay was quite enjoyable.
Stellar visuals, banger soundtrack, very responsive and satisfying gameplay. Amazing! I definitely have to come back to this game once I'm less tired! Is it possible to get this game into fullscreen mode while playing in browser?
@purrseus Just added that in!
Also thank you everyone for your kind comments! I really wasn't sure if people would like the gameplay loop (and I'm glad that you all do!!)
Very cool game! Music is a banger! about the gameplay, the flail feels a little bit too stiff imho, if it had more momentum the feel of it could have been better! congratulations on a nice entry!
Very satisfying gameplay. I wish there is another control scheme rather than mouse input. But other than that it is perfect!
@Papaya If you got a controller you can actually use it!
Simple yet cool game! Hitting enemies was way harder than I though it would be but once you do it's really satisfying, the game feel is really strong with all the screen shake and combo text and effects, really really good stuff. Took me a while to notice you got more fuel by defeating enemies but that makes sense. Also the palette change when a new delivery starts is a nice touch
really loved the vibe in this game and using the package as a weapon was really cool idea. great effects. great game!
One of the best graphics modes of old games.
A very cool game! Found it to be quite hard (never made it past the 2nd level) but also addictive. My only complaint is that it lags quite a lot sometimes (which is weird - there isn't that much stuff going on computation-wise), and a fullscreen mode would be nice - hard to play in a tiny window inside a web page right now.
@lisyarus Thank you! Fullscreen is an option but only on itch.io. I don't think it's possible to enable it within Ludum Dare's site with just GameMaker.
Super sweet entry! Great feeling with the aesthetic, music, and the controls. Those tunes were super good! I also didn't make it past the second level, but its skill issue:( Tough one but super well done!
This is such a damn cool game, getting a multi combo with the flail is just... WOW. But also damn I suck. My 'best' run was on my very first try, before I realised I had to do deliveries. I was just having fun spinning out of control and killing as many doods as possible. Then next run I realised I had to do deliveries, and idk, it felt less fun from there? Like I still can do the spinning out of control for no reason thing, but the game clearly wants me going over there instead and doing this forever isn't really getting me anywhere. And now that my goal is to go over there instead of killing guys, idk it just isn't meshing right and my flailing game is suffering. If I stop trying to deliver, I am badass, but whilst delivering I just try to clip a few guys and fail most of the time. I'm pretty sure this is a me problem, I just wanna flail around endlessly, but whilst delivering I tend to fail instead of flail. Best deliveries I've gotten is just 1, but the highest combo I got was x25.
Flailing is so much fun, the physics you've made feel so intuitive even as the flail's momentum affects you. Combos feel so good, and music is a total banger. Love the lenient lose condition, though I did occasionally run out of fuel without realising I was low. Awesome game, the level of polish is crazy :heart:
This is amazing. Super polished and has a great style all around. I will say that at least for me it is extremely difficult (I wasn't able to get more than 2 deliveries), and I have trouble actually flailing to hit the enemies. But when I manage it's very satisfying.
