Fears of a parent? I have 4. I'm not worried about alien invasions, I'm worried about them being stupid and falling off the stairs because they were running down them, while picking their noses and not paying attention at the fact that one of them left a jeep toy on the top step. No aliens though. :)

The art is consistent, which is good, but the style diminished the impact of the drama somewhat.

Generally speaking the animations were a little imprecise, as in slidy, as well as they could be interrupted at unexpected times. Again, a bit of a blunder for immersion.

The highlight of the game for me was the voice acting. By no means at a professional level, but it still helped with immersion substantially. The best part was when the girl asked her mother about how the world was before the invasion.

The endlessly replenishing guns diminished the sense of danger.

I don't think the theme was hit. Literally any game could be concluded with "it was all a dream, lol".

Pretty solid entry though. Nice seeing some ambition by having voice acting that's meaningful in a game jam game.

Took me a bit to understand this was a roast and a bit of satire. Thanks for the great goof! A++

It's a quick but great experience.

The art is amazing, really. The music also fits the game really well. The gameplay itself is pretty basic, with some simple combat and easy-to-use weapons, which goes along with the climax of this short story. Even though you can finish it in 5 minutes, it is fairly imersive, and you feel empathy for the characters, too. The voice acting is incredible, and the dialogues are pretty interesting as well.

Honestly, the only complaint I have is that you didn't put "space to shoot" in the controls in the game's description, so I kinda took some time to figure that out, but other than that there's not much to criticize.

It's not a complex game, but it certainly has it's charm. Nice job!

Sounds are great. Graphics looks nice - especially animations. Although fighting those monsters wasn't easy running is always an option :D Anyway I would love to see more of this game.
