Nice start but it's clearly unfinished. It seems you forgot to make the music loop so it only plays once and the projectiles do not face the direction they are fired in. Adding a score and a game over condition would have gone a long way. Without them it's not much of a game. It's also unclear if it is supposed to be a cooperative game or competitive. The multiplayer just seems a bit pointless when there is no score.

Absolute cream of the crop, nothing suspicious here

picross 2023-10-21 19:55

@jormarysky yeah what the heck? how often does this sort of thing happen?

laserpanzerwal 2023-10-21 19:56

What the F is this? It's not even working properly. The ratings can only come from cheating.

simex 2023-10-21 19:58

whoa! 5/5 would rate again! nothing else to see or read in to here.

well I'm glad someone decided to make a point out of the flaws in the rating system... its easy for any ludum dare veteran to see that the rating system is extremely flawed and likely a decent amount of this manipulation happens, albeit more subtle than this.

No rating for anyone else, but getting 22 of 5 stars is suspicious. Your game will not be recommended if you did not play other's games.

Nothing new. Mike usually catches such thing before they get out though.

jormarysky 2023-10-21 20:13

@picross Prolly often. Worse, it happens more subtly. These kind of blatant cheats are getting noticed, but less obvious manipulations are getting past radar

maxededo 2023-10-21 20:13

wow i can see why this is totally deserving of second

Removed and recalculated.

snowdrama 2023-10-21 20:27

@pov probably worth checking out who rated this with suspiciously high scores as well, it's likely it was a group effort.

weirdbitgames 2023-10-21 20:31

How did that happen?

its-capp 2023-10-21 21:12

@weirdbitgames the rating system is flawed, they probably got their friends to rate 5 stars and then didn't rate any games so that nobody else saw their game and fixed their ratings to being ridiculously high
