Decent game!
Great game! I fairly enjoyed it, it could've used some sounds though. Overall 4/5
Neat little game! I kinda wish you would've binded keys with the buttons.
Kinda fun. Got really repetitive for me after the first 5 levels. Also, no offense, but the music sucks. Overall 4/5
Thanks for the feedback. At what point did it crash?
Thanks everyone, I'm sorry for the bugs, I didn't notice them during my testing. In order to get past waves you have to place your men strategically, buy a factory at the start and then once the wave starts, wait to buy and place one of your salesmen. I'm also sorry for the unbalance-ness. If I continue this I will hopefully make the game a bit more balanced.
Hey guys, I just downloaded it on my laptop and was bug hunting, and realized it is really un balanced. I think the spawn rate is too high, once I update it I will link the download in the post. Thanks.
Alright, just reuploaded the download. Change some things such as:
Enemies now have a bit more health.
Less spawn rates. It now takes the enemy spawn amount and multiplies it by the current difficulty(adds up from 1 every wave) then adds the enemy spawn gain, then divides all that by 2.
Made the timer in between waves longer, that way until the later rounds you won't have several rounds overlapping each other. I changed this because it was way too difficult in the beginning when 1 wave spawned 20 seconds after another.
You have to click the "buy" button. Clicking on the icon itself just shows you what it does. You are only supposed to use the up arrow and enter once you've bought a salesman, otherwise you don't use it.
This is actually a really fun game. The simplicity is great, also very challenging!
The guards started shooting themselves. 10/10 - IGN
I can't find any of the runes? But also, the movement is pretty meh.
Great fun, I wish there was more ammo, though. Unless I'm missing something.
Pretty good!
Overall one of my favorite games, great job!
This so far is the best game I've played so far!
Haha, you took the theme very literally.
Thanks! There's actually a few bugs and I apologize for that, we completely forgot about testing. I guess it just makes the game funnier, though. And yes--all the art was made with paint, haha.
I will post a post-LD version soon, fixing the beehive and adding help.
There was initially a tutorial but due to the game idea changing practically entirely, it was removed and we didn't have time to make a new one.
To buy stuff, you click on the shop and if you have enough coins you can purchase one of the abilities in there. You can use the arrow keys to switch between abilities.
I thought it was good but the delay on the controls pretty much ruins the experience.
This is probably one of the best entries in LD35. The livestream was fun to watch, too!
Overall pretty fun, I would love more health potions though. It also lagged a little bit here and there, that might just be on my end though
Decent game, kinda annoyed me however that there wasn't any hinting towards anything. Usually wandering until you find the objective isn't all that excepted; at least for me.
Played it for a bit, not bad.
Here's what I thought:
-The mouse sensitivity is WAY too high, or at least for me. Maybe include a slider/input field to set it.
-Physics seem too, um, "stop-y"? When you let go of jump, you just fall straight down. Would be nice to keep gliding for a bit into the direction you were going.
-Mild inconveniences. For one, having to hit M->Enter/DownArrow->Enter is annoying when you die when taking the tutorial, there should be a single button to completely restart it. When you also start the game, if you literally walk forward 1ft you drop into lava and die. Annoying because I can't see down when I just spawn, and I don't expect to be dropped into a pit of lava when I begin.
There's also a bug I found, infinite mouse look. I'm sure you know about this, but I'd just like to point it out.
Overall, not bad and certainly better than some of the submissions I've played so far, but some overall polish would've been nice (if of course you had the time, otherwise I fully understand).
Thank you for the feedback.
Yes, I understand about the sound effects. I was going to change them but ran out of time. Where did you get stuck at?
Hi, thanks for playing. The controls do do things and you can kill the wraith. The game get's a bit hard though and it's mostly based on luck which might've been your problem.
