Nice work :)
Few pointers:
* Wow, great to see a shooter in the jam! I haven't played one yet, and yours felt great :) awesome feedback
* Visual effects were great, and as said above, gave great feedback to in-game actions
* Music was great too! Props to the artist!
* Game was challenging, but not crazy difficult - which was a fantastic mix, made the game super enjoyable.
All in all, great work, and I hope to see more at the next Jam :)
Wow, this is sick! I love games that meld 2D and 3D, and you did it beautifully! I like the intro to the game as well (and thank you for allowing me to speed up dialogue with spacebar!!). Controls felt good, aiming was good. Fantastic work. :)
Nice work :) Fun game AND it's even more awesome because it's built in Godot :)
Dude, had so much fun playing this. :) nice work
Nice :) nostalgic
Super unique game here! I saw the video on Reddit and thought it looked so good, plays even better :) Although you make it look easy in the video

So cool :) Really like all the random trees you can get, they look really neat stylistically as well!
Nice work!
Fun game :)
A few points:
* Levels were well designed! Moar!!
* Graphics were nice! The artwork fits well.
* Someone mentioned a lack of tutorial, but honestly I didn't feel it needed one, within a few seconds I knew what I was doing.
All in all, nice work :) Great work for the time constraints.
Really neat concept :) Enjoyed this immensely, wish it had sound though! Would've added to the mood.
Wow, this is a fantastic looking Godot game. Pretty difficult, but I got the hang of it after a while. Neat game, and I'm surprised that this was done within 48 hrs! Nice.
Nice work! Pretty neat game. I like that the zombies agro when they're hit, makes it that much more tense. :)
I really liked the concept, and the artwork, and sounds. It all really fit together well. But what frustrated me was the clunky controls. I'm not sure whether this was intentional or not, but it felt like one of those games that forces artificial difficulty upon the player through controls. I feel the game would have been just as challenging had it featured more responsive controls. Faster bullets would've been nice too.
But damn, nice job for an engine you're not familiar with :) It's quite an achievement to do that in such a small timespan.
Wasn't really sure what to do despite reading all instructions. The aiming felt a little off, not sure whether that was intentional for difficulty purposes. Also wasn't sure how to place turrets, right click didn't seem to do anything?
Great game, fun and had a great mood. The minimalistic SFX were nice too :)
Fun game! Froze over twice, but got there in the end :)
Nice! Definitely agree with stolen_biscuit, I didn't really know what was going on. I kinda just shot, and then magically beat the wave, even though the heat seeking enemies were following me. The movement felt nice though, and the controls were responsive. I liked the "pew pew" sound effects too. :)
This is so good!
* I loved the menu effects, as well as the general atmosphere of this, it's so incredibly polished and you guys should be real proud of what you've done in the time allotted.
* The game concept is incredibly fun, and even though it's challenging, it makes me want to play more to get better!
* The physics feel great
All in all, great work :)
Nice work here! I go into these games blind without reading the descriptions, and your game was incredibly intuitive and I knew what I was doing from the start.
A few points:
* Graphics were fantastic, I love the game's style and your sprites were great to look at.
* Sound effects are cute! They fit the graphics well and create a nice mood in the game.
* The gameplay is great, controls felt awesome and I didn't feel held back by them.
Awesome work, and I hope to see more from ya in future Jams :)
Cool game :) It was fun, and I reached the helicopter. The controls felt great too. I would've liked some more audio to set the mood, but understand it could've been due to time constraints that these weren't added. :)
Pretty challenging! I'm definitely no good at platformers. The movement friction was a little frustrating actually, frequently causing me to lose a life. Beautiful art work, and I liked the dialog system as well. Nice :)
Nice work, a fun game! Here's a few things I noted:
* The music was excellent, and as Kszaku mentioned above, the fact that it adapts to the events in the game is fantastic, makes things more tense for sure.
* It took me a few playthroughs to get the hang of it, I think it's not really that clear what you should be doing when you first start, but that may change from player to player.
* When I lost my first few games, it was more of a sudden "game over", there wasn't much leading up to the game over that told me I needed to pay attention. I later noticed that the plants start showing black when they are rotting. Might've been nice to have them shake or something as well, or hear a sound effect.
* I liked the graphics, they were crude, sure, but I think they suited the game well and I think with the time that was allotted to such a project, you guys did great and you should be proud of what you've accomplished :)
Hope to see you guys in the next Jam!
I really like the art direction, as simple as it is, it's quite charming. I like the audio as well, it really matches the aesthetic you have going on. The gameplay it self is challenging, I like the aim style, it's difficult to start with, but it quickly becomes muscle memory to either scroll quickly, or spam the arrow keys to get in the right direction.
My best score was 17.85 seconds :) Damn those lizards move quick
Haha man, I didn't read any of the description information, just the controls and went in blind. It actually startled me when tentacles started flying in out of nowhere. Fun game haha, played a few rounds of it to get the hang of it and all in all I think it's some good work! Controls felt good, and the sound effects were good. Background music was good too.
Nice game to get it done in the time given, and I had fun. Hope you're happy with what was achieved. :)
Creepy game! Really loved the atmosphere. Tim sure is evil! I also liked the player animations, I aspire to have a walk like him some day.
Made me laugh looking at the cute dog! Nice modelling, and the first 3D game I've ever played from Godot :) Nice work mate.
PS: Hey from Reddit!
Good game! I'll admit that I go into these games blindly, and don't read the descriptions, so it took me a bit to figure out what I was doing. I didn't let this affect my experience negatively though, due to time constraints tutorials become an after-thought.
Few things I picked up:
* Graphics were pretty good, some good programmer art :)
* The MacOS version didn't work for me personally, I had to play the Windows version.
* The gameplay felt good, but as someone mentioned above, it feels kinda unfinished. Feels like it's ALMOST there.
All in all, nice work under the time constraints! Hope to see more in future jams!
Nice game! I like the art a lot. I found it pretty hard to find trees though, their spawn rate seems a little low.
Controls felt great! Loved the effects too when killing enemies.
Nice game! Really had fun with this one.
* The pug slapping the ground in the little intro for the story was hilarious, actually got a laugh out of me.
* The controls felt good, and it was satisfying to use the arrows to do "trick jumps".
* The game was challenging enough, but not frustratingly hard, I felt like I could actually get it if I tried hard enough.
The sound was great and fitted the graphics, and the music was a nice choice too. I almost think that the music could've been a little louder.
Nice work :)
Pretty funny game idea honestly, nice work coming up with it. Quite a challenging game too, I didn't even get past the second level after around 10 minutes of trying haha. Granted, I didn't use the undo, felt like it was cheating.
A pretty intuitive game! After seeing the instructions, I took off with relatively no learning curve. The actual puzzles in the beginning were a little confusing, I almost wish that there was some kind of health replenish "station" or pickup after each section of the beginning. Overall though a great achievement for such a limited amount of time. :) Nice
Nice! I actually made a similar game in Godot :)
This is fantastic, congrats on your first Ludum Dare entry :) It's a great one. Real fun concept!
@fermingimpel thank you! I put a lot of effort into the music :)
@squirmonkey thanks for the feedback :) I had no shortage of zombie ideas, however I did have a shortage in time. Definitely wanted to add more content.
@fezezen Thanks, and I'll check your game out :) Difficulty was hard to get right, I've really got no experience in balancing games, so that'll improve as I do. Thanks for checking it out :)
@tso lol :D
@battlecat Your con is a bug :P Your money is supposed to reset after game over, but it doesn't. My bad for hard coding the button state to the buying of the pistol hah. Thanks for the feedback :)
@magnusfurcifer Glad you liked it, thanks for playing :P
Thanks @kjscott for the feedback. 100% agree on the difficulty curve. My difficulty math was definitely flawed. I will fix it when all the results come back from this Ludum Dare, along with a few bugs others found :)
Thanks again for playing mate
@twigames @verrazano @anchoredtoad @dimling thanks for the feedback guys, glad you enjoyed it :) Appreciate you guys taking the time to play!
@phlip45 Gun sounds were made by banging my fist on the kitchen table, and mixing that with the sound of some hot-cross buns (still in the plastic wrapping) smacking on the same table. EQ'd it up so it sounded boomy with some crispiness and yeah. I just mixed a bunch of sounds really.
@albertnez It's a bug that it gets so hard so quickly, I didn't have time to properly balance the game. But luckily it's also a bug that you keep your money after a game over. 😂
@snowirbis correct, the sound is directional. Probably not really a good idea for a 2D game though. I'll end up fixing this stuff in the post-jam update. The rockets also don't explode due to me running out of time. Thanks for playing :)
@omickron Haha that was the influence :) Thanks for playing.
Awesome work :)
Here's a few pointers:
* Gameplay was great, as a touch typist it's always a great challenge to play games like this. Reminds me of Type of the dead!
* I like the humour in the game, it was well executed!
* Such a great idea too, I haven't seen any other typing games in the jam so far :)
Hope you guys do the next jam!
Cool game! A lot to get done in 48 hours :) Nice.
Really fun and challenging :) Nice work. Can't beat the third level though :P
Nice game! Pretty challenging though, and very punishing. Checkpoints would be nice! :P
Can't run on MacOS Catalina :( No 64-bit support. Will play on Windows, then update feedback.
Wow nice team effort :) Liked the artwork a lot.
Nice work you've done here :)
A few pointers:
* It's not really incredibly clear what to do in the game, I prefer (to my detriment sometimes) to go into a game blind, and it took me a few attempts to really grasp the game's systems. I got there in the end.
* It's fun exploiting a movement bug by moving diagonally to go faster :P
* Graphics look great, you guys did well on this front!
Hope to see you guys in the next Jam, hope you're happy with what you've achieved! It's great
Nice work :) Fun game, love the aesthetic. I do agree that it's a bit quick! But awesome work for 48 hours. :)
Couldn't get the HTML5 version to work, just a black screen. I think you may have missed the part where you have to zip up the web files it spews out :)
Fun game though, glad to see more people using Godot :)
Really interesting game! I like the graphics a lot, and the little tune that accompanies my adventure. The game controls felt really tight and some of the levels were pretty tough so I appreciate the fact that there's no "lives". Overall great job :)
