Minimal Shooter by robcozzens 2013-04-30T16:27:00
I like the twist regarding the controls, at least I can`t recall any other shooter that moves in the mouse and shoot with WASD. =O)

Gratz
same here, seems great, but unable to test since Im on pc =O(
Great game! =OD
Tried the web version and it was ok =O)
I like the mood of the game
you could add a point system and make the player keep the square inside the blue for score and even more score by landing on black, this should make the player risk more =O)
nice game tho (and gj since you had so little time =OD )
Squares,
Squares everywhere!
<buzz and woody in the scene>
Unable to run the game =O(
Saw the whole video, seems very nice =O)
Loved it!
Gratz!
Just loved, best game so far =O)
found a bit difficult to find my self with the controls, will try later with a joystick =O)
gratz!!
I like the concept, nice work =OD
Liked a lot how the game scales, although there are some levels that seems missplaced =OD
Played a while, really liked it =O)
You could change the "red" for other collors to indicate which minigame it represents. Example: red = basket; purp = button smash, etc.
Loved the idea =O)
Loved it =OD
Gratz =O)
Game for Asians! =OP
Nice work!
Evil programmer hahahah =O)
be nice to players
loved the idea! =OD
are maps randomly generated?
You can easily enhance this game =OD
Nice work =O)
Fun game, a bit out of balance imo =O)
Kinda Hard, but I like the idea =O)
unable to download =O(
Loved it! =OD
(hard tho)
You could place a "E" or "Press E" somewhere, took me a while to see the small letters in the bottom of the screen.
I loved the mood of the game and the game in overall =O)
GJ!
The pieces got fat! hnahahahahahha =O*
Which version are you using @shatterhand?
That was some problem regarding the keyboard-seat interface (AKA me) hahahah
Tnx all for the hints and compliments =O)
Loved the Idea!!!! Gratz!
Nice game, liked it =O)
I can only say one thing: "Well, that escalated quickly"
hahahahahha
nice game my friend =O) Liked it a lot including the pain in my muscles due the insane clicking =O)
Liked the BGM :)
And so I understood why you placed the T button in your game heheh, nice job! :D
Liked it! :D
hahaha loved it
I got a bit confused regarding the boss movement.
Besides that I liked it :D
GJ :D
Difficulty scales a lot at some point like 20+ waves (was not counting)? Overall I liked it! Nice game, reached wave 32! :P
could have used an ending screen :D
Nice job!
A bit hard, but fun! Gratz! :D
Saw it on the main screen, as a post mortem, very nice game! Liked it! A lot! :D
Great idea! Gratz! :D
I really liked this game. A way you guys could expand it is placing like 3 rounds and even placing characters with different skills or something.
nice job!5/5
Loved it!
Took me a moment to figure it out, but I liked it, nice game :D
unable to download, place the game in a dropbox or somewhere else :(
Great! :D
liked the style :D
hard but very good! :D
gratz!
I liked it but I missed some sort of difficulty increase.
The best power ups are Pacifist and the Gatling gun :P
AHAHAHAHHAHAHA loved it!
nice!
AHAHAHAHAHHAHAH
nice nice :P
I don`t like downloading games, I rather play them online (easier), but I downloaded yours and I must say it is great!
Really nice work! :D
LOVED IT!
Great work!
Played till the end :D
Nice :)
Loved it! :D
Nice :D
Loved the art!
I just loved the art! Nice game!
I could used a bar or something that indicated me how many people I could eat :)
Loved! Took me a while to figure out what to do :P
nice work!
Liked the SFX :P
Nice! Liked the way you used the 10 seconds! :D
AHAHAHAHAHAHAH Loved it!!! :D
To stupid to play puzzles :P
ficou maneirissimo seu boneco de neve :D
:D
Lol :D
Took me a moment to figure out some of the rules, but overall I liked it :)
always nice to play a good breakout :)
Nice, I think you could balace it a bit further, but ok for a jam :)
You are without votes (I think my stars wont count for you) since you did not check the fields that you want to be judged at.
Liked it, but a bit confusing navigate in the maze :P
good work :)
Hard to control but once I got the mechanics it was great. Hard to control, but nice game to play :D
Great work :) (imagine this game with touch interface now and go for it :D )
I saw the game on a post and started to follow you to see when the game was being released. Not disappointed. Amazing graphics, but I am not comfortable with the combat mecanics, IMO it takes too long for actions so only a small balance issue, besides that, I think is an amazing game, great work :)
Worked fine here. I don't like to download, but since it is a shmup... :P
I missed some sfx only, but overall pretty decent shmup :D
Gratz!
Joust clone? With a twist? hehe :)
Loved the art :D
Good job
LIked the light and the overall game. A suggestion is to make the more powerful weapons less accessible, some sort of ammo limit or a secondary bar that consumes upon shooting and takes some time to recharge. ATM I can stay in an alley and survive forever :)
But I liked the game, a LOT :D
Loved it, even after getting stuck for a bit :P
liked the idea :)
damn you :P
At first I was curious, then came the anger, and finally I read the comment and GG :P
nice :D
Muito bom :D
Curti demais :D
I will not cast a vote yet. I think you should make a small text tutorial to guide ppl trying your game. I am completely lost :/
I normally don`t download games, but yours got my attention, I will bookmark your page and come back later.
What I was able to do is make a small circuit in loop (right, fire, fire, <repeat>) but from there i can't go on, so please add some instructions :)
Updating. I figured out how it works. :D
Start with a clock piece and then things happens :D
I liked a lot the concept but it is very difficult, for me, to solve the best way to beat levels :)
But indeed, worth the downloading :D
Gratz :)
Liked it a lot. Think you could use more blood hahaha :P
the internet just love cats :P
you should place some sort of tutorial in the screen (text only) to help with prices and cooldowns :)
Since this is a task management, you could use some indication of chaining actions (seemed possible to do it). and either place more storage or regulate the random to keep the colors more likely to be used soon. Went out of storage space :/
Despite that, lots of potential in this game, maybe you should work it a bit longer and publish it :D
hard as hell :/
and I think my stars wont count for you, all categories are N/A
Nice :)
when Moon lander meets Burning Rangers :P
hard as hell to control the ship but i liked the game :)
Things you could do:
* a bar to indicate the next money tick
* although its working, it is a bit boring, due the lack of things going on. I know that this was made in 48 hours, but anyway, objectives, small and long ones can help a lot.
* the pace, after you get the game, is not that slow, could be faster, or let your player decide (as in SC) if he wants to have a fast paced game or a slow paced game.
* Listen! People are giving feedback, grab them with all your strength and see how to improve your game :)
I love SC and I think that if you work this a bit you can have a great game to publish :) Keep up the good work
Liked the graphics :)
but hard to play alone (forever alone hahah)
After I read the "wierd dota game" It made sense :P
Gratz :)
Liked it :)
Liked it. But for gameplay you could use both buttons (rotate right/left)
liked it. But I think its a bit too fast. You could improve it to become something like the battleheart :D
Curti, mas acho que encontrei um bug. O bicho do capeta entrou no meu castelo e entrei junto, ai ele voltou para a caverninha dele e de lá nada mais fez :/
muitas estrelas :D
unable to run :(
32/64bits issue i guess. tried the 64b exe inside the folders, same problem. :/
This game becomes insane after a while, no? :P
autoshot! please, its a must! hhahaha
Nice idea :)
The robot is lovely :)
did not work getting sheep to the top :/
I don`t always download games from LD, but when I do, it's because it's a shmup. :P
you could ported it into web, will help you with feedback :)
nice idea tho :)
Liked it, a lot! :)
insane hahahha loved it :)
difficult as hell! :P gave up after the lasers :/
I like the graphics and the gameplay is great, good job :)
things you could do: 1. publish this in a touch device, hard to use the mouse; 2. balance score and stuff to make every "kill" count; 3. increase the amount of bees, more stuff to take care of and more points if they are alive (1 bee per flower)
Overall simple and great :D
Liked it. Took me a moment to figure it out, but nice game indeed. Replay elements and lots to pay attention to :)
Nice work guys :)
Lol, outside theme, but tons of fun! :P
slen... i mean, snow man! :P
hard as hell! :P
Really good concept.
Web player not working, tried to use it a couple of times with your project. Either it is too big or drive is messing with your game.
It is like QWOP but with a robot hahahahah
WTF, could only kill one guy after a couple of minutes :P
Nice job, smooth controls and very (VERY) challenging!
Too bad that no sounds :(
Nicely done :D
Hard to control tho :P
took me a while to see that the banana would kill a bear :P
great game, played to the end :)
I like the graphics a lot, but the enemy shots are hard to see :(
loved the idea hahahaha :P
The art is really amazing, the sound gives the perfect atmosphere for the game. The left and right buttons are exchanged. Really want to see this game when it is completed.
AMAZING!
I got this jam's favorite so far :D
Great level design, great sound, smooth controls!
:D
Heavy game to run :)
Had to place everything on low to get some fps going :D
Liked it :D
absolute no idea how to play, but I like procedural generated stuf :P
(and reading the comments I am not alone heheheh - if you care to explain drop a message at my game :D )
AHAHAHAHAHAHH it made an awkward situation since I was playing this at my work hahahahah great idea :)
hahahahahhah great :D
keep it up :)
well, that escalated quickly :P
liked the concept, a bit boring at first, but then very hard to keep the pace :)
Power ups gave a great touch :D
nice use of the unconventional weapon :D
(is there an ending screen or something? the game just ended on a black screen)
I tried to play, but did not get how to fix my ship or destroy the other ship :(
Would be great to have sounds, seems veryt epic, but something is missing :)
Great Job :D
Lol, the proxy here tag your page as porn hahahaha :P
Will try it at night :D
my daughter: "Seems more like a crocodile, not a dragon" :)
Keep it up :D
took me a moment to figure out what was the 6 pack talking about since we dont have it here in my country :P
Liked it :)
keep it up :)
Liked it a lot :D
Tnx fof the feedback you left :)
and sorry to hear about your loss :(
AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHH
I am using a cold-blooded electro-alpaca :P
indeed got a smile toying with your project :D
gratz :D
the power of words :(
Great job :D
nice game, enjoyed playing it a lot :D
hard to kill ants after the yellow key :)
good job :)
I dont think I got the gameplay :(
Cool art tho :D
Nice art, a little darker, but really good. Good job!
Just sending the same feedback I got a while ago: 2p games are hard to test and judge :/
When you can make even a simple IA that allows ppl to test :)
Loved the songs and the micro play space
liked the idea :)
did not like the music :(
great job :D
At first I could not see anything because of the screen size. I pluged a second monitor and then I was able to see everything. The controls are ultra fast and the shot rate is very low. I think that the idea is great, for you have to think before you shoot and this is the answer for my previous comment (shot rate). Keep it up :)
hahahahahha
I am hungry now, gracias senor! :P
Sinister.
hahahahah Just loved it :D
nice music, controls could be a bit smoother :)
snail!!! :P
nice work :D
you could linked the game directly, would help :)
a bit off theme I think, but I just love chain reacion games :D
Nice job :D
My main issue is the control set. Z to move? :P
I liked the concept, a lot, but hard to explore the game with the controls.
A webplayer could help :D
Keep it up, you have a great game there :D
liked it, but you could have more stages :P
The audio is great :P
hahahahh loved it :)
Could make coins and stuff auto-collect to make the game easier a bit :P
poor goats, killed a couple :P
Really nice!
the big guy dont die, right?
5/5 great stuff, great game, gratz :D
Awesome game :D
5/5 :D
Seemed a cool game, but I wont wait for an ad to play a jam game :/
sorry
had a hard time trying to reach the first flag :P
Liked the concept of the platform :D
hard :)
jesus is wathing you :P
lol, liked the mobs (aka devs) running around :P
Liked the song :)
Liked it. I have a lot of fun with this "grow your stuff eating smaller stuff" games! :D audio also very nice!where did you make it?
Low fps killed me!!! hahahahahah :) Played a lot, took me a couple of tries b4 discovering what to do properly :) Perhaps you should add more detail to your briefing like: moving: click bridge (press 1) and click on destination Shield: to recharge follow the pattern shown on bottom right Resources: approach an asteroid and click in beam, press left when the circles overlap
something like that (as far as I went),is there something to do after I gather all stones?
cheers! :D
@amras0000 Thank you for the feedback. I have (always) a hard time with the Canvas. My goal for the next months is to learn more about it. :) The font I used to the tittle is my handwritting :P I use Procreate to study Calligraphy :) although, now that you mentioned, seems a good idea to write all with it :)
great game :D fun to play and aligned with the theme :)
Interesting concept, I was able to heal most of the ppl without dying :P
A mix of pegle, pachinko and management. Liked it :D funny as hell :P
Liked the game, found a bit difficult to reach some platforms, but as someone in the comments said, lots of Joust feelings floating around :D Great work :)
I usualy avoid the games that I have to download, lazyness. Some of the games, however, catch my attention, yours is one of them :D I am glad I found your game :P 30 minutes of joy in my afternoon :) Thank you sir for that :P Minor bug that sometimes, one of the barrels does not award me with the points. Would love to have a tutorial for construction patterns (took me a while to understand how things worked), but it is a jam, so you did an amazing job! The sounds reminded me of bob is going home (atari) and it was very nostalgic :) amazing work!
Awesome game! so far the one I liked the most :) great job :D
@froissant you have little control, it is based in a slots kind of game :P You are right :) I added some choices, but due the lack of time I was unable to move too far from what you've seen :/ tnx for the feedback :D
@javicoder I tried to keep under the market directives, where the player has less control so the companies can handle better the math, but yes, having more control in slots games would make them more interesting (see the coin master, where you have at least the impression that you have control) :P
@gamermomentum that's the final plan, but you know, jams! :P so many plans, so little time hahahah tnx for the feedback :P
@spidd tnx for the feedback :) One of my goals as a GD in this gambling industry is to bring more meaningful choices to players :) but the old folks dropping coins in the machine nowadays are trilled with just the reel movement :/
@elektroney hum? this is not a puzzle game nor has levels... are u copy/pasting comments around? :P
@denhette Liked the idea, will keep that in mind, tnx for playing and dropping a feedback :D
@malcolm You have little to no control on slots games :P that's the magic of them :/ @simonl you have very little control if you reach the bonus game, where you can choose to gamble the chance (20%) of finding the blue matter and win more. @loiclegrosfrere I know the feeling, one of my goals in this industry is try to give players a bit more freedom, but, from what i've seen, they do not want to hahahha :P
@deltamain harsh, but txn anyway, polish was not made at all in this game :/
Did the game just opened an youtube tab with some anime charactter??? O.o had a lot of fun with the game ahahahah :P
liked ahahahahah great art and very funny :P
And ppl said my game is hard :P keep it up :D
I found the game lacking feedback :/ papers please feelings, loved the art :)
I was not sure what I had to do (till i discovered that I had to click the gate to admit a person) The first time I've played the banner in the top left was greyed, less visible, this time I was able to see it. How many ppl shall I allow into the castle? how do I lose? This kind of elements are not very clear. The banner is also a little hidden, and even ppl with human appearence decrease the banner and ppl without human appearance increase :/ this confused me a bit. papers please, since you headed towards that direction, had a line with X person and x time to admit them all. Sugestions to further develop your game is to switch from the rules/admit tab automatically and admit, one at a time, the ppl to speed up a bit your game :) A help screen, prior to the game begining, could help too :) again, loved the art :D
anytime :D hope you continue your game and the feedback can aid you :)
Pll said I was crazy for the slots game. You guys beat me with a ufo catcher themed game ahahahha :P loved it! :P
Found the instructions a bit confusing at first, but then, once I got the hang of it, it went smooth. The "dont run" instruction should be taken seriously, found my self into a whole a couple of times for speeding ahahha :D Great job :D
Great game, great theme, nice level design and game mechanics in place. the puzzle using the cards is a great thing :) The game froze at a certain point of the 4th session :( will resume later :)
Nice concept :D
Nice shooter :) helped me a lot to endure a boring class ahahah
The theme was handled with sensitivity and respect, amazing job. Reminded me of Florence.
Interesting concept :)
hahahah loved it, although I am a bit dumb to play these quick reaction games. 1st level took me several tries, then the second was a bit faster, then I got the hang of it :P
Liked the game, the gameboy look and feel drag me waaaay back :) I have a hard time on platformers, so I went up to the 3rd or 4th stage only :/ But great job :D
loved the art and sound :) kinda easy tho, consider using a "coil" system to drag the lava closer to the player and keep the danger visible Great controls, smooth responses, great work :D
took me a while to get the hang of it, but I was able to complete a single mission hahahah tnx for making me lose half my class :P
hahahahahahah loved it :P and no, I won't give hat back! :P
Got stucked in the big ramp :( A reset switch would be a nice adition to the game :D Great work for your first jam, take care, these events are addictive :D
Very fun some of the objects are really hard to move without triggering the bomb :P Playing the game in the browser makes all the difference :) Great work!
confusing at first, then I got the hang of it :P Mental illness is something interesting to use as a theme if you use it to raise awareness for these issues (see hellblade for example) :) great work :)
cats bringing mental health hahahah loved it :P Great job! :)
Good game, for next events a good tip is to have the game online to boost feedback :) Found controls a little confusing at first, but after a while I understand how to control everything around :)
I would love to see this game move forward :) this is my kind of game. It still lack more feedback so I understand what is going on :) but liked a lot (was playing for 30'+ when the game crashed my firefox :( )
Sorry, no :/ you are counting on an old mind :(
too hard for me :P great work tho :D fun to play
I went far :P hated the big guy reminded me a bit of Dragon Crystal (game gear) great job :)
Nice art found the copy minigame a bit punishing :P
Interesting mix, great graphics keep it up :)
lol, nice concept ahahah :P
A bit too random at first, but once I found the elements and how they work got me flying to 21km :D You could auto-launch once there are no more space to place stuff :) took me a while to notice the button in the right side hahah :P great work :D
Super aligned with the theme, I was unable to get the hang of it tho :/
loved the idea of changing the surroundings to get things going :)
