i really like the bullet patterns but i don't like how they disappear after you defeat the enemies. some sfx (even just randomly generated bleeps from sfxr!) would have gone a long way for giving the action more "oomph", too.
*love* the presentation of this (pun intended), but the gameplay is a bit dull. not a whole lot going on!
*very* juicy, i'm loving all these small graphical flourishes and particle effects, although i have to admit the gameplay doesn't keep up with the presentation. it's just a little too slowly paced for my tastes.
this is just a straight-up good game. love it!
wait did i accidentally publish the game for real
oh that's a relief, thanks!
thanks a bunch for the feedback!! it's all very useful stuff
@pixzleone - i was gonna do highscores but completely forgot about it during the end. it's been something i wanted myself, so i'm gonna make a post-jam version of the game that's a little more fleshed out, with highscore tables and all.
@librorumque64 - oh, dang, i hadn't even thought of that. i'll have to look into how to autoscale love2d games or something because that's pretty unacceptable! thanks for the notice!
@shru - yeah drops are completely random. basically there's a countdown going on with different chances of drops spawning, with batteries being the most common. dry spells are something i've noticed myself, but having it be more dynamic is honestly pretty brilliant and something i'll definitely try to implement.
re: highscores, i've actually already implemented that in a post-jam version, persistent savefile on your hdd and all! it's on the itch page, although i'm hiding the downloads until the end of voting, just to be safe noone accidentally rates the game based on the edited version.
incredibly polished, this feels like something i'd actually pay money for. also, dog samples in the bgm? 10/10
this is without a doubt the most polished game i've played yet. art was superb, music was banging, controls were fast and responsive, and i'm really amazed with how you faked the 3D with the vehicles. excellent job, duders. this would honestly be a really good full-fledged title.
oh yeah and of course, the gameplay itself was also very fun.
oh, man, i really liked this! good game, nice feel to it. graphics were very crisp and clear, easy to tell what they were supposed to resemble. and lemme tell ya, i loved that little bootscreen. very cute.
maybe i'm just really bad but when it gets hectic i had some trouble getting into the right position to swap batteries. other than that it was really fun, good job!
