Now now, that's a game I'd like to beat. Music, graphics, sounds, physics - everything adds to that great atmosphere. A great entry!
Nice UI graphics! Good music. Well done 3d models. Couldn't deliver anything, but spent some time driving around town.
Difficult to play in a browser due to lags, and also difficult to aim the gun on a trackpad. A promising concept, would love to play a full game.
Cool! Sense of exploration, thrill of battles and a captivating story! Well, perfectly suitable for an LD entry :)
Cool take on the theme! Atmosphere is definitely there. Making all graphics either hand drawn illustrations or pixel art instead of mixing various styles and scale of objects would really help.
Devilishly difficult! Fun game, the only bad thing is the shop experience, just did not have a single pause to buy anything. All weapons are different and fun to use. Nice game!
Very good! Beat the game, had fun, like gameplay and art. I think it deserves a good score for innovation. Also fits the theme. Thanks!
Arrgh! Just love everythin' related to pirates! And the gameplay is solid!
If Carmageddon had delivery missions... A good entry!
Played it on the web. I think it shows promise, juts needs some tweaks. It may be difficult to get the job (E doesn't work even if you are close to a building sometimes), and the city map is tiny. There is potential in the mechanic of trying to remember where each address is positioned and finding a route to that destination.
Couldn't figure out how to obtain items to deliver, but nevertheless earned some coins and purchased some upgrades. Some battles had dragons mysteriously healing instead of receiving damage from my attacks. Nice that castles are tall and can be seen from afar, no need for a minimap.
A nice time-killer with an interesting choice of music :)
I wasn't prepared for such a polished game. It is amazing. Art! Gameplay! Balance! Everything is of the highest quality. My only gripe was with the controls, upgrade/battle, and accidental upgrades. However, it was just a minor thing. My god, the graphics you made for your entry! Absolutely mind blowing.
Graphics alone are making it a zen-like experience... almost. When the action intensifies, all soothing qualities are lost, and it turns into a story of survival. Nothing new in mechanics, but the art style is enough to make this game stand out. I imagine it becoming a nice game for an iPad :)
Cool! The planning is important if you want to get to the surface with all your gems. A well rounded entry! Awesome!
Nice entry, and fits the theme well! I couldn't make it to the bottom of the trench, got eaten by the... snarks? somewhere between 500 and 600 meters. For LD, it could be a little bit shorter or include a checkpoint or two :)
Well, technically, it is an achievement, a real multiplayer game! And could be fun with other players to kill. However, in single-player it's just a senseless grind. We always dream of making a multiplayer game for LD, but each time we can not come up with an idea that will allow to solve the problem of too few simultaneous players being online at the same time. You didn't crack that one too. Anyway, thumbs up for trying! Graphics are high quality, atmosphere is nice, and overall it's a solid entry, but one which is hard to love. :)
The second stage was sooooooo difficult for me. What a story though!!! A 5 star entry.
RNG was a bit harsh to me :) I think it's a nice mechanic, could be a great level-based puzzle game, great on mobile.
Just a great entry! A tad smaller locations would indeed help understand where the player is. Very nice character animations, and the death animation is superb.
Steering missiles was very enjoyable! It gives a sense of control, very cool.
Could only craft one thing, maybe there is a bug somewhere? Anyway, the mood is great, audio, cute animations. And the lighting, just what we wanted to do but didn't have time to implement in our own entry. π
Complex controls were a bit frustrating (Q? E? LMB? RMB?), but the rest is great! Minimalist graphics are so stylish, love these haircuts! Monsters are cool too. It was enjoyable to learn how all weapon types work. Overall, a very stylish entry. Thanks!
Super soundtrack! Shotgun ftw! Missiles should've been able to destriy the terrain too, and have worse auto aim, that could lead to more chaos and gameplay variety :)
Visual novels are cool. Good decision to have a rather short story - so that players will be able to complete it. And the mood is great. Sadly, the story looks like something from the Russian news :)
It was so hard to understand what tool to use and when... And then it was even harder to manage switching. Cool game!
Surprisingly deep gameplay, fitting fraphics and audio. A great entry!
What a great entry! Fully playable, complete game with a balanced, fun gameplay and dynamic soundtrack! Awesome!
Well, first of all, thumbs up! This is a great entry. Atmosphere is just right. Hopeless, senseless slaughter, life filled with fear and boredom. It fits the theme perfectly. Sounds of course would be nice, but without sounds it works just as well. Card flipping animation isn't perfect, especially when fast-clicking through it, and maybe a patterned back side would make it easier to understand at a first glance. My first play-through was short and lacked any accomplishments, but on the second try I fought off one attack on our trenches and participated in a trench raid... There is no feeling of accomplishment after playing the game, but that's exactly the point of it, right? Great entry!
Very nice entry, I just wish there was another way to restore at least some health between the levels, other than selling the upgrades. It could prolong the suffering of the gladiator on the arena. π
The Jam version didn't work for me, but I managed to play an updated one. Let's start with music! It matches the sci-fi setting nicely and adds suspense. Robot designs are great too, and the style of graphics reminds me of Avara, which was a great game at the time. Presentation is great, especially for the first Jam! The gameplay could be so much nicer with better physics. Jumping is floaty and very difficult, maybe it's the low gravity planet or something, but it is not satisfying at all. Running isn't much better than jumping. I believe that in a game about running and jumping these two activities should be fine-tuned. If you can do that, I think players will be able to take on many robots at once with better physics, and it would be lots of fun!
Wow, an RTS! Cool! π½
The game made a great first impression! I got a bit disappointed that there is no way to restore hearts. Basically, game forces you to bet as many hearts as possible at the first stage, then buy everything you can and play onward... Still, the graphics and sound are great!
Level design allows cheating by shooting enemies one by one. But this won't help beyond wave number 3. And I just couldn't get enough upgrades to survive on later waves. I think the balance is wrong for an LD entry (a game people will play once or twice before moving to a different one they need to rate), but I still liked the game a lot. The graphics are great (I love pixel art), the music fits the action, and overall impression is just great!
Amazing full-featured game. A part of the series! I see what you did there π I like the gameplay and the upgrade system is really well thought-out, it is always a tough solution whether to upgrade or keep some energy! Can't yet beat the final boss, but I will try. The kids also liked it a lot, though they come from a new touch-only generation, and WASD is something alien to them! π
A nice, pretty well balanced LD entry! Great graphics, audio, and gameplay. π π π π π
At first I was very disappointed by the jump physics. But after playing some more I sort of understood why you chose to do the jump like that. This game was hard, and I wanted to quit several times. But persevered and beat it. Well, I am a lowly accountant now, but still alive! π
@karstenpedersen Can't find the macOS version in an archive, there is only an .exe file.
Excellent at 780! I tried to live a balanced life, and expertly juggled various "medicines" trying to prolong my reign. Cool game! :)
A very solid entry! Gameplay is good, it is actually fun, challenging but manageable. Art is just what is needed for an LD title, which is all about the gameplay.
What a clever take on the theme... Or not, I don't care, I love to smite the mortals! My final score says it best: leet.png
The music is just so nice! π§ Sets the tone of the game perfectly.
Played for several days till the vacation ending. Then read about seven days in total and other endings. Began my second session, but the game stuck at day 3 (?) at the word *sadly.* Well, I don't want to play through the first few days again. But the first try felt nice, there was serious tension and I thought about a way to solve the problem, the atmosphere is nice!
Amazing style. Loved it to death π Fun action-puzzle gameplay. Thanks!
Pretty pixel art! Upgrades! Action! I like it a lot. π
Looks like my notebook doesn't have enough power to run the game. I had slowdowns and several times the character just stuck, not reacting to keyboard or mouse. Anyway, I'd like to praise the art style and graphics! Well done!
I used an auto clicker to cheat... π Couldn't beat the game anyway!
@sondrian It was also difficult for me to play with x and z / arrow keys. And audio could really help set the atmosphere. But the game fits the theme, and I loved the "it" design!
Great graphics! Very stylish. Nice background music and fitting sfx. Teleportation mechanic is cool. I had difficulty understanding what impulse my character will have after teleportation, this made playing less enjoyable for me. But this is a good entry!
Hi Guys! Greetings from a group of 35 something year old mates from Russia/Switzerland. π Any chance you can compile the game for macOS?
I love games like this. Minimalistic, difficult, with the ever growing abilities of the character that allow you to discover other parts of the world. This is a game I will probably play again, until I beat it. However, the whole "sacrifice life in exchange for abilities" mechanic doesn't feel like a natural part of the game (altars after sacrifice look rad, btw), because you **must** sacrifice part of your life for abilities, there is no way to beat the game without these sacrifices. Anyway, overall it is a very well done entry (some parts of it rare, even blue, if we use steak cooking terms)! Congrats!
Great entry! Not that fun per se, but it fits the theme and is very challenging. Also, it is complete, and I find it important, even in LD entries.
A nice complete game, dark sinister atmosphere achieved using great sound fx and monster design, plenty of action. A solid entry!
Arrgh! I just wept when I saw that this game is Windows only! :) Please, consider porting to macOS (and Linux too!) for your next Jam! ;)
@edgarlord Hey, attach a video/photos etc.! We'd be happy to have a look at your game. Maybe you could scan the art and rules, it would become a real entry ;)
Now that's an innovative concept! I first was terrified that I see something like the terrible "parking simulator", where you have to traverse the level and stop in some spot to complete it... And then I learned about physics and ability to control different objects! Very, very nice. The flow was smooth, I never got lost. I didn't like that I couldn't control some objects in one of the levels, while in the previous/next levels they were interactive. It was odd. The jumping physics could use some tuning, and again they were inconsistent between the levels (for example, the red book). But this entry is really fun to play.
It's a bloody nice entry! Though the concept isn't exactly new, execution was top notch. It's a balanced entry that I just /had/ to complete. I can only complain about collisions (trying to move past the benches, but colliding with them). Other than that - a joy to play and great to look at. Thumbs up!
Graphics and Audio are perfect. A large game that I would like to play through, but alas don't have time. Text scrolling on click could be made faster. Other than that, awesome!
I wish I had more time to hone my skills in this game. Audio was great, and the gameplay is dynamic and matched the theme. And online scores are cool. Overall, a very solid entry.
Voice acting, yay! ;)
Great entry! Music adds to the atmosphere and creates suspense. Minimalist graphics look superb.
Finally a game where you can safely pee in the corner. Well, mostly safely.
Music was great! Bouncing shots mechanic is cool. Graphics are somewhat uneven (different styles don't always mix up well). The most irritating thing was that shots never fly where the mouse cursor is at the moment. After changing controls to WASD everything went smoothly, but these settings would be best made inside the game.
Got stuck after getting the sword. However, it isn't important. Art style is just fantastic and unique! Thumbs up!
Well, that was definitely something... Unusual :0 Music sets the tone!
Quite a thing. Nice art, though lacks animation during movement through hell. Overall, an unusual, provocative entry, that's great!
These are some new ideas for a top down shooter! I like the darkening level and the lighting effects when you shoot. Variety in enemies even with obviously limited amount of graphic assets. The only thing I find lacking is the sound of the gunshot when you don't actually hit someone. Thanks for the game!
Hey) At first I thought the balance wasn't perfect, as the game starts slow, and then difficulty goes up waaay too fast. But then I understood that you were right, because here at LD people usually get to play each game once, and for this single session you made a good balance. Player will have plenty of time to understand how the game plays, and then - chaos! Also, it pays to learn the keyboard controls from the start.
Nice entry.

Oh well... It's a great game! If you want, you can check out our take on the same concept of human collection :)

Adrenaline inducing stuff. Nicely done! A bit too difficult for me :)
