i don't know if this was supposed to be as funny as it was to me but the sound affects 12/10 i it made my day honestly. so funny. Game play was so smooth, and the story was funny favorite sound was the Alian dying caused me to kill every one i saw lol

Got to level -10 once i realised i wasn't supposed to kill the aliens! The game looks like it was a lot of fun developing, love the sounds, gameplay and art!

Haha yess it was very fun developing, thanks for trying it out! Wow, -10 is actually not so easy to get to, great job!

The sounds were HILARIOUS! Loved it. Graphics were top notch and the little random items with notes gave a nice break to the mayhem :grin: One thing I noticed was having the 2 side glocks upgrade didn't really help much! Maybe if they pointed towards mouse but at a slight angle for triple bullet hits? Or shotgun or something. Otherwise, super good well done! :clap:

bashem 2025-04-09 07:21

We're glad you liked it! :) There are also upgrades that give you double, then triple glock all pointing towards your mouse at a slight offset angle. I think the slide glocks could be useful mostly at the deeper levels, where enemies can surround you if you're not careful. But they are mostly for fun and for even more of a mayhem for when you press 'q' and spin your guns haha, anyways thanks for your suggestions :)

This game is seriously impressive - probably the best I’ve played this jam! =) The gameplay has vibes of Hotline Miami and Vampire Survivors, and it totally works. Loved the SFX, the music, and the touch of humor. Everything comes together so well. Great job!

Thank you so much for the kind words, we are really happy you enjoyed playing :D

I love this tinfoiled-hatwearing madness of a game! It's funny as hell and really polished to play. Great work for real!

I had a blast with this! Great game, amazing all around. Loved the graphics, the sounds, the humor. Great work!

This is a lot of fun - love the sfx, graphics, and all-around vibes. Notes: Wish you'd implement collisions so you don't just walk over everything. Some of the upgrades are really downgrades - side guns just end up making it hard not to shoot aliens. Ammo is too available to matter.

Super funny concept and a really great game!

adam-martin 2025-04-11 23:22

Very fun, the upgrades made me feel a bit overpowered, but then I killed too many aliens.

kamuniaft 2025-04-11 23:23

Entry scene had me laughing out loud! Later, every level down I waited for a new conspiracy to be revealed :D I had a great time playing this game! Awesome work!

A very fun and addictive game! You have to not just mindlessly shoot in all directions, but do it carefully, so as not to hurt the aliens. I quickly turned into a machine gun on legs, so I had to play carefully :D

And the sound effects are super!

Thanks for the comments, everyone! :D @aldenwitt at one point we did have collision, but some military guys got stuck because A* wasn't accounting for it, and we ran out of time so we made a quick decision to remove them in the end. Same thing with ammo, it was quite annoying if you ran out of it and for it to be easily playable even for those with little experience in these games to enjoy it, so we ended up giving a bit too much of it. As for the side guns, they contribute to the bullet hell especially if you spin your guys, so we needed to have those haha :D Thanks for the insights!
