Please add instructions, it took me a bit to figure our that i can shoot the skeletons. :) After I figured it out its quit a fun minigame. It gets really hard in the last 20 seconds. I made it to 11 on my best attempt.

@tk07 thanks for the feedback!

fun game but I'm so bad lol, also I agree with the need of instructions

Interesting approach. This game makes addictive, last seconds feel like a dark souls boss with low health barImage.png.

It's hard to find out when a skelly will reach a certain spot and it makes it hard to shoot/live but overall great game!

I made it to 20 at best, my strategy was running in a cycle and shooting upwards, but after 30 seconds they spawned too frequently for the cycle to work. Really hard game! I loved the funny sound effects.

Fun minigame-esc game. I loved how I could tell you voiced the shooting sound! I've done similar stuff in my games before. The only thing I'd say is it would be nice if the flooring was in a grid sort of pattern that aligned with the player movement. Besides that congrats and well done!

A fun game, but a skeleton can spawn right in front of you and there's nothing you can do to not die :D

UPD. hold on, skeletons only spawn at the top of the screen, nevermind, it's all fair then, haha

Fun game, need a lot of tries and if you want to try it... it's because you like it, right?

Well done! Take a candy! :candy:

Gaaaaah lol this is like the dark souls of tiny room games. I hit on a winning strategy (circling as a little box in the corner), but one wrong move and it was over. Haha great game and really well put together!

Killer sound effects XD Fun little game good work!

skosnowich 2023-10-13 09:18

Phew, really hard game in a really limited space. Those sound effects are just great! :smile:

Good job!

My best try:

This game was more fun after I found it was framerate dependent, on my 144hz display I couldn't ever make it past 40 seconds, but on my 75hz I could at least make it to 15. Nice sound effects!

Fun game, a bit difficult to predict where the skeletons will spawn

This game is cute and atmospheric, but very hard. It would be better if the mouse wasn't needed for starting/restarting the game. Switching controls is awkward. And why is the game window so small?

bytomancer 2023-10-14 22:51

Neat idea, but it's pretty unfair. Missing an attack is extremely punishing, and there's no indicator of when/where a skeleton will spawn.

A bit half baked for me, aiming and shooting requires rapid inputs to shoot the foe before you are killed and you have no possibility to kite or avoid him making the game a bit jank to play.

The visuals are not super cohesive with a mixture of art styles and texture scales which makes the game feel unfinished.

Skeletons spawning on top of the player is particularly unfair and I think easily solvable.

Hope to see a more finished and polished game in future jams, keep learning and good luck :)
