In what way does your game fit the theme?
there is unlimited ammo in the guns, the enemies come at you really fast, and you die to a single hit

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
yes, i did it all in construct 3 and I made all the assets in an online website called pixilart, my friend did to with the tilemap and the cactus sprite

I did the nerd voice acting (As heard if you ever click "Leave" on the menu). I basically made this game.

I am not really sure what i have to do.

The skulls take too long to kill so you can only run away from them.

The art style is also a bit weird but the main character is really well done with the walking animation, bullets should be a bit bigger.

The music is great but the shooting sound effect is way too loud.

Seems like a good game but i am not sure what i have to do and how to unlock the chests.


I would appreciate if you played and rated my game ;D

I was promised a cactus with a gun, I got a cactus with gun, I also got called a noob when I quit the game. Nice game!

You can check out my game here:

loved the art brother, hope you enjoyed the experience, my only feedback is probably that some sound are kinda loud, but for the rest super fun game :)

yeah i could hear that

just a clarification: I actually made the cactus sprites and the tilemap for the game, but squid made everything else.

The premise of the game is hilarious! I knew that I would find some new and creative game story in the game jam, but I've never expected to find a cactus arming it self with guns through dungeons with floating heads! I liked it!

At first I went straight into the game without reading the tutorial.... it did not go well. I don't know how to opened the chest, which is my bad for ignoring the tutorial. Then when I open the chest correctly, I found myself being a cactus holding an AK firing like a machine gun! (again, did not expect that too). The spray gun is nice too. This game is pretty unpredictable xD

I found the boss room when the room cycle, but I can't seem to deactivate the purple turret there to get to the gold chest T^T

Another problem for me is that the bullet sprite for the initial gun is a bit too hard to see.

Other than that, it is a very interesting game for me.

Thank you for your hard work and enduring through the burn out!
