Fun game, feels very polished. Played the client version vs bots. Not really any complaints other than the client version lacking an exit game button and the bullets looking a bit weird, like they're still in their casings.

And more, crazier powerups could be fun.

Pretty fun, even against bots

Great presentation, too

Enjoyed playing this during the stream with humans.  

I got a 2 win streak without shooting much which seems like a good strategy.

I finally got to play it on stream yesterday.

It's a really clever concept for a battle royale game. Being able to see your victim's screen is a perfect touch.

After playing some more my only observations are that the combination of stun and bounce can be absolutely brutal to the point of a very quick death, and focusing on evading is a way more effective strat than playing aggressively (but that's not a problem since it's obvious which one is more fun). Seems like a complete and polished game to me.

Thanks dude. Thanks for the compliments.

Yeah, playing defensively is definitely the wise way to play while you're still "getting good". The other day I shilled it on /v/ and ended up playing this anon 1v1 for at least 8+ games, he was really good. It got to the point where we actively *had* to play aggressively, otherwise we'd just sit and wait and leave it up to level 6 egg hell luck.

i've played this the past couple of demo days on the streams and it's good. is it finished? i'm not able to tell what's changed.

when i have this open and the streams it stutters a bit, but i think that's my weak CPU

Thank you diabolodev. It's basically finished, just gotta test out the server a bit more and snuff out bugs.
Music, costume unlocks, and general gameplay improvements have been added since last time. Also a magic egg and black hole egg variants

really fun!

took me a while to get what i was doing but it worked out well. sometimes its impossible to dodge the onslaught of eggs but not much to do i suppose, perhaps a togglable shield or all clear powerup on a timer. only played with bots but can see this being a fun party game

Thanks man. I'll definitely give your upload a try here in a bit.
I thought about toggable powerups, but there are a couple reasons why I decided against it:
1. I want moving, pooping, and collecting to be the whole loop of the game. I didn't want to add another level of complexity
2. Similarly, I didn't want to make the game have another button. Players even forget they can poop with spacebar lol
3. It can feel pretty shitty to have saved up tons of eggs to try and go for a carpet-bomb-knockout on your target, only for them to pop a shield or something. I wanna encourage egg hoarding (which makes the game harder because you'll be bigger) rather than not

I really like the costumes, it's all coming together really well and I think you should release this one Steam. In the current state it's really fun and good looking.
