This game is awesome, i love the sound effects and the music. The idea is really original too, haven't seen anyone else do this. Great work!

The Score system is a bit messed up, but loved the music a lot!

All the best!

32nd!

I love the variety of weapons and the core gameplay. I would weigh your options of having the cycle of weapons be predictable or randomly determined (i.e. being able to count on a duck bomb, or getting a duck bomb randomly).

I'd love for there to be more sounds for the little things -- zipping around on the line, scientists screaming, glass breaking when it's shot out -- there's a lot of potential even with what you already have.

If this were an arcade cabinet, I would lose a lot of quarters to this bad boy getting my initials up on the leaderboard. Outstanding!

This was really cool! Could easily spend hours playing this. I love the enemies that climb down the rope so you're forced to switch sides, and the different weapons are really fun (love the duck bombs!) I didn't realize switching sides stuns enemies so that was really useful once I figured it out

I liked the style and substance of this one. Looks and sounds very good, and the wide variety of weapons that can be chosen were amazing. Took me a while to grasp the controls, but once I did, I went buckwild. Lovely presentation, great game. Nice work! :D

Also, here's bad fan art:

Thanks for playing man :). And the fan art encapsulates the game very well XD. Thanks a lot for that

Super fun and polished! Looks and plays great! I really love the ridiculous ammo, it would be fun to see what else you came up with!

Developer

Thanks for playing man :)

Fun game! I included it in my GMTK Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Developer

Thank you :). I'll definitely take a look

Art is uber polished - the ammo switching mechanic keeps you on your toes and reminds me of ratatatuie from last year!

Developer

Thank you for playing man :). I suppose it is kind of reminiscent XD

The game is really well done, though I found it to be pretty difficult immediately. Great execution on the theme, art and sound are great. Nice work!

Developer

This is a very, very fun and polished little game, I just had a blast playing this. The concept is super fun, making you run around the level like a madman. The controls take a little time to get used to, but once you do, it's just pure mayhem, in a good way. I love that the scientists give you an extra life, which really incentives you to keep your eyes peeled. Fantastic little entry man, keep making games!

Developer

Thanks for playing man :). Appreciate the feedback

This game was very fun. I found that you can cheese the game by just waiting at the bottom floor and just going back and forth dodging enemies and picking up civilians.

I'd fix that by adding some kind of two sided attack that forces you to change floors or maybe enemies that have civilians hostage.

Otherwise is was a neat game!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback man :). I wanted to add enemies which take scientists hostage but, we can make only so much in the time span XD. Thanks either way

Submitted(+1)

This was really fun, incredibly polished for a game jam game!!! Only real complaint is it seems like there's moments where you can't avoid damage and those moments feel a bit cheap. That being said, this was a great game and I especially appreciate how well everything fits together between the audio, gameplay, and art!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback man :). I appreciate it

Although not convincing at all how it relates to the theme, this is the kind of candy I love to see in a Game Jam.

Deliciously simple and frantic gameplay. This retro style is really appealing. The feeling after dead is just, I want to play again. Not a complaint on this

Please more of this, Adding to collection.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback man :). Wrt the theme, your bullets were out of your control and always changed whenever you killed an enemy. And frankly, the entire situation is completely out of control XD.

OK I'll dig that. Great game seriously.

Really fun game, good idea! it reminds me of the game and watch games. I love how simple it was. The controls felt a bit clunky though. And there seemed to be a bug where sometimes you just couldn't shoot or crossover at all which was really frustrating but I loved playing the game, and I'm glad I played enough times to get to the boss, but I was stuck with a shotgun so couldn't hurt him.

Developer

Thanks for playing man :). You should be able to hurt him with the shotgun as well though. Thank you for the feedback either way :)

Really solid game. It took me a little while to get used to it but it was super fun to play!

Wow what a ride. It is challenging and frantic. Decent take on the theme. I was not good at it but 10/10 for adding exploding chickens!

Developer

Thank you for playing man :). Also, those are exploding ducks XD

I like to smooth gameplay. However, you can die really quick and game crashes when accidently hitting "w". Oops ^^

Developer

Thanks for playing man. I think you may have pressed "E". It's used to exit in the desktop version. I think I may have forgotten to remove it from the browser version

Dude this is awesome!! the switching between guns and the super smooth gameplay just works so well. I love it its just so much fun. the only thing I would recommend is a small time between getting hit to avoid dying way to quick. Great work!

Developer

Thanks for playing man :). I suppose an invincibility state would be better. Maybe in a post-jam update.
