How does the game fit the theme?
The game fits the theme mainly through its use of high-risk, high-reward mechanics. In the game you can choose to take a greater risk by facing stronger opponents in exchange for becoming stronger down the line. It's all about risking it for the biscuit.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Most of the visuals and audio. Credits for which can be found in the game's page.

Very awesome take on the genre and nice use of the theme. I kept risking it but I'm not sure what the bonus was. From the various upgrades it would have been nice to have something related to the player speed but it's more of a nitpick than an actual complain. The game is really addictive and fun to play!

Ty for playing!

Originally we would add 2 mehanics: the between waves risk that was implemented, and another one to "cook" one of your weapons having then unavailable for you until next level. we had to cut the cooking mechanic for time constraints but the risk mechanic makes your enemies faster and spawn more often but you get a slight buff on XP per enemy.

Submitted

Thanks for the explanation! The cook mechanic sounds really interesting so I hope you guys implement it after the jam is over C:

That's a great submission!

I really liked this game. If you put more into polish, such as particles and screen shake it would make the game 1000x better. Still a great entry.

Really solid game! Could use sound effects on the weapon fires tho! Great work! <3 *this game was live reviewed here:  twitch.tv/gratefulllyivory (will post vod after stream)

Developer

Yeah we ended up not having the time to add the weapon sounds haha

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'll make sure to check the vod later.

Nice Vampire Survivors type game! For a second at the start I thought the hits were tied to the music but it was just chance. Good solid upgrade system that worked well too!

Thanks for playing! I'm happy you enjoyed it!

Nice survivor-like game! I don't know how I would've survived without the slow-down effect of the onion. I didn't think the game was going to end at the third boss because I was trying to break the game with beans.

Developer

Thank you very much! we learned a lot of things doing this one. Beans are also my favorite weapon.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, the onion makes the game a lot easier once you level it up high enough. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I enjoyed your game. It was very difficult. I made it to wave 11 on my longest run! I really enjoyed the music and felt it fit the art style very well!

Developer

Thank You! we tried to balance the risk and reward in such a way that you canot win w/o risking, but risking nonstop would overwelm you quickly
