How does your game fit the theme?
People come to you behind your door on halloween day and you have to open the door to give them candies or to kill them
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yeah, we made all the code and asset from scratch

Congrats on getting the #1 Overall spot! This game is a lot of fun. Love those chunky pixels and the way the camera moves with the mouse slightly in the game and even on the start menu. It took me a few deaths to realize how to load the gun. I just want to keep playing, but it seems death is inevitable for a person armed only with a candy gun. There's really a lot to pay attention to, makes for a great gameplay loop, and it makes me want to restart and play again once I do bite the dust. Overall top notch game. Congrats again! You deserve all the praise!
Wow! Thanks a lot! I always thought we needed to be a big team with year of experience to win a jam this big. I never thought we would win this, it feel unreal! I am definitely proud of what we made and I will definitely continue to work on this little game to publish it as a full release! Thanks for the comment!
The mood is sublime, everything seems so hostile and the tension builds up when someone is going to knock on your door. Loved it!
THank a lot for the feedback! It make me happy that the atmosphere was done right. That mean that I will try to keep the atmosphere as it is when expending on the game
This is a really good idea. Great job.
If you have time check out my game.

Being nice giving treats to monsters but they want more ;(
Yeah, I know really sad... maybe in the future there will be candies that will satisfy their huge hunger :(
Nice game loop, simple and fun, well designed !
I can definitly do higher score but i have other things to do. And I killed one cops, that's a victory.
Thank a lot for trying out our game! Congrats for this huge highscore! I am curious about what strategie worked for you? I prefered making the game easier than harder for a game jam. Thanks for the positive feedback, I will go check out your game when I get the time.
During free times i put many candy as i can under the candy bag, not too much just in case cause the game limit the number of candy you can pull off, so i keep some to be able to also drag candy from the bag. When delivry guy come, i put letters in a side and wooden planks in another side.
Then I take the gun and open the door. When it's the kid, I drop the gun and take fast a candy to give him, usually he have times to make 2 knock max, sometimes none. When it's a monster I spam shoot, cause sometimes the first shot doesn't hit, then i drag the gun at the candy pile to reload, and get ready again for the next.
Now all i have to do is not shooting the wrong guy cause with the pile of candy i can fast reload and chain the monsters if needed, like i tried in a run for the test to kill delivry guy first time then kill as cops as i can, and I killed liked 8 cops before dying.
When i've reached 216 points I had like 10 wooden plank left and used only 2.
Also if the monster come inside to rush to me, you can close the door fast and the monster will be set back to the door, so when i need to reload, the door close itself, giving me some more times.
And in my run i didn't took my times to look who's outside cause i just wanted to rush, but you can definitly play more safe at the end to make higher score.
Thank for the reply, this will help a lot to balance the game while keeping what is fun and interesting!
