I got 5840! Is that good?

It was rough, I ran out of sand almost immediately and the coconuts kept spawning the same place where the badguys spawned!

Very cute game. Well done.

As soon as the "boss music" for lack of a better word came on I was scared, very scared, I had died early. Overall very good game pixel art could be a little roughed out but nonetheless everything else is amazing!

That bats are everywhere! Nice game, reminds of Vampire Survivor and etc. Good job!

Cool game, I think having to aim the weapons might make it more engaging!

Me only 5055, lets make a second try :)

This game is SO FREAKING GOOD!! I love the concept and graphics so much!! My only wish is that there is a more direct page for instructions because the first play through I didn't have time to finish reading every instruction before I started hitting enemies. But this is a really really great game!! GOOD WORK!

Very fun game and I loved the way you implemented the tutorial, very intuitive and well done.

Such a cool idea! The katana animations are so smooth I love'em. The game is also very fitting to the theme! Good job!

awesome entry! Love the gameplay and especially the music and sound. It can get hectic after a while but i liked it. The game was a little tricky to fully understand a tutorial would be amazing. Feels decent to play great job!!!

This has been one of my favorites so far. After getting the gun and three swords, I felt invincible! Until I started rushing the bat spawn points for coconuts and started getting overwhelmed. Was the mechanic where the character could only generate so much dirt at one time? And then you had to wait for the older dirt to disappear before you could make more to move on?

Good idea for the theme! The game is well put together and very engaging from the beginning. I was not expecting the gun :joy: Great entry :)

Uuuum this was sick. VERY addictive. super cool idea with the sand/auto-weapon/rapidly increasing enemies. great work!

THANK YOU FOR THE SOUND SLIDER! More games need them, and your's is the first I've seen with it!

This game was very fun to play. It was satisfying to move around and let my weapons kill al the bats. I also felt really cool when I got to dual wield guns!

Awesome! My favorite part was how you dealt with the swords. It really made the chicken feel like a ninja

spacecadet 2023-10-05 06:50

Nice and satisfying gameplay. Sand limit felt very restricting which was probably the intention. Good job!

Very smooth gameplay! At the beginning it was a bit hard to get used to suddendly not having any sand anymore, but you get used to it after a while. The core mechanic works pretty well with the fighting mechanic, because fighting is about getting into a position were you dont fight too many enemies at once. And the music and funny sound effects turn it into a very fun game!

griddolini 2023-10-05 11:09

the sounds are weird and fun i really like the style of this game! its like a brotato lite with a limited movement mechanic. nice work

Funny and well-made game! The main issue is: sand platforms mechanic is frustrating. Can't move towards points and bonuses, and can't do much with it with current mechanics.
