Very well executed, the theme plays into the game very well. It was fun to balance wanting to spend health, and wanting to bank it, the tension between the two felt very well balanced. Furthest I got was wave 8, but I had a blast playing.
Music was rad, wish I had the options for powerups sooner.
Loved the music, didn't enjoy the level design. Loved the hand pew guns.
Your game seems pretty feature complete, which is awesome! It was a little frustrating having to deal with picking up and dropping items, auto pickup and dropping nearby just felt clunky. Overall great job.
This game was super fun to pick up and play. It took me a few lives to figure out that I needed to kill the enemies to get past the gate on the first level and not do a double jump to bomb what looked like a button on the door.
Gameplay and camera control felt pretty polished though. Great jam!
I liked the art for the game, it served the style of the game well. I could have used more interaction options / strategy when it came to bartering, but I appreciated the different personalities of the visitors. Overall there seemed to be a lack of tension, or a feeling of risk reward when making different decisions in the game.
Pressing 'E' to fire didn't feel great and took me awhile to figure out. I was overall impressed by the presentation of the game, the 'cut scenes' and how it showed the premise and setting of the game where really well done. The presentation was the highlight of the game for me.
The actual gameplay was pretty rough, I only got to level 3, and basically getting there felt mostly RNG with me just spamming 'E' and sometimes I killed the enemies before they killed me.
Fun simple shooter, the gun upgrade I was looking at cost like 5x what I had at the time, seemed like it would take playing for awhile to get it. Liked the music, matched the rest of the style of the game very well.
Yea, we got pretty rushed at actually making the bullet patterns towards the end. Thanks for playing!
I loved your game!
I enjoy the typing mechanic, it was intuitive and added to the game quite a bit. Overall it felt very linear, and while I didn't play more than one life, I didn't identify anything that could have given me a reason to try a second time.
