@valmontechno Sorry I fixed a bug and forgot to update the link!
2/3 when I died it didn't stop game in any way except preventing from picking up the items, so I didn't event understand that I died. When I started to pay attention to that, well, I die very quickly and I barely can enter any near house before I die. The game certainly lacks any goal. Why ever exit the house, if it's safe there? You could add there at least a goal like "find 3 items", that already would be much more interesting. In the lore, it could be like you must find survivors and "help them" by clicking E, so no no new mechanics required. Also I strongly recomend you to put a game screenshot as a cover, the current one is clearly not attractive. I'm here only because I decided to go for games in the order that ludum dare gave me. The shooting part is nice, but again requires some balance, like may be put less enemies and lower their damage. And may be spawn them out of the game view because it looks very strange ot see them spawning right next to me.
The games lack auduo and after playing for a bit I was left with no ammo and stuck with the bugs blocking me but didnt die after my health got to 0 so i had to force close the game.
:( virus found, might be a false positive, but I'm not taking the risk.
@v1ru6 Ah that's annoying, sorry you couldn't play! I'm pretty sure there's no actual virus in it!
@andriy-symon @heiden-bzr Thanks for the feedback, I've just updated the game's menu to include the goal and some controls. There's also a quick death mechanism now also. The lack of audio was due to limited time I'm afraid!
Nice game! I wish there was an indicator when you get hit and faster reload, but otherwise the gameplay and art is good.
Hi, nice grafics, nice controls but ran out of gas and could not figure out how to get more.
are there any music or sound effects? i miss them
@wimblebimble Thank you! I wanted the reload to be a little painful for fun, sorry haha. @ollibanjo Thanks! Graphics by H4rry. To get more, collect empty canisters and chemicals, thhen take them to the machine at the start. That'll process them and spit out a full canister.
Fixed the bug where the game doesn't end :)
It's fun to kill bugs with a deadly spray. The game still lacks sounds, and the game is repetitive, but it's good overall. Good game!
This top-down bug-killing game is really enjoyable. The process of killing bugs, collecting chemicals, and gathering empty bottles to get a full clip is a lot of fun. I can also see how you could expand this even further—perhaps by adding a boss fight that eventually neutralizes a bug hive, with bugs spawning from the hive instead of popping out randomly. That would be an awesome addition!
The controls are smooth, and the game loop is very replayable. My only criticism is that since this is a score-based game, there's no end screen to show me my final score. Perhaps you didn't have time to implement it, but it would really complete the experience.
Overall, this is already a fascinating project for a game jam—great job!
windows marked it as virus buut who am i if not a risky woman (:
cute game, found myself replaying it some time
Graphics are good, i would say maybe bugs should have died after damaging player? rn if one spawns right besides you it kills you in 2 seconds
Overall i enjoyed my time, tho instruction on inventory and the machine wouldd've been good to get me started more easilly (:
Nice game! Wow! I like the design, the concept of the game and everything is very cool! I hope you will continue making good games!
Nice game, fit the theme but it's quit hard. I got almost one shot every times. The reaload didn't seems to work. But with a fiew changes (more weapons, increase in difficulty with time, a todo list) it would be a nice little game. Great job
Pretty cool little game. Those bugs didnt have a chance!
@prostocupoftea Thanks for playing mine! I enjoyed yours too!
Decent little game! I like the twinstick shooter idea but with a more unique weapon which makes for a bit of challenge and getting used to when trying to get the hang of it.
I loved the idea. This game deservers more time to be polished :)
Cute game! Just was a little confused about how to reload (and I didn't know that I had to pick up ammo until later in the game)
