Nice color selection and the gameplay music matches with the gameplay. Would be nice to see some popup animations for all the UIs. Other than that the game's really good!
Feel free to hop into my game as well and share your thoughts and ratings if you have the time!
Thank you for playing! we really wanted to have a nice animation for the picking of the upgrades but didn't have time haha.
Will check out your game too
very fun to play, but a little too hard to die, i think it has too many healing items. Congratulations on the game, good job, its a great game.
Yeah, I definitely agree haha. The balancing for the game was a last ditch effort and we accidentally made it too hard for new players since we were balancing relative to our experience as people who know exactly what everything in the game is lol.
Thank you for playing!
hey there survival developers :)
the real iron man fella did not want to give up :D
well implemented GGs.!!
Thank you!
Trying to die as quickly as possible is surprisingly fun! I really liked the level up buff mechanic, where you get a nice powerup to try to die faster, but it also heals you, so you have to decide whether the tradeoff is worth it or not.
Thank you for playing! we realized we have to do something like that or else the game ends too quickly haha.
For real just let me dieeee aaaah
Maybe some feedback is in place for when you gain and loose health, like when you level up for example! But other that, really enjoyable game :)
Yeah for sure, definitely needed some more feedback for the player.
Thanks for playing!
Very solid, though I got a little bit frustrated having level ups heal me back up, which isn't a bad thing or anything, just tooke me a long time to realize it was happening lol. Fun take on the theme :)
Yeah, a lot of people have pointed that out too haha, you're not alone :D.
Thanks for playing!
Best confirmed high score: 01:33:555 (ASking20)
Can you die faster?
it has a really unique twist! And definitely difficult to be death if you pick the wrong upgrades.
Glad you liked it :)
Thanks for playing
nice twist of game mechanic! i have seen a few vampire survivors games but this is by far one of the best twist to it! congrats!
Thanks! :)
Really cool idea! As a fan of Vampire survivors it was fun to try and do the opposite and get myself killed. I like that the upgrades also are meant to get you killed faster. I played twice with first time being ~2:24 and second being ~1:57.
I'm not sure if I'm sold on the upgrading healing you though... I guess it gives a bit of a decision, like do I try to level up fast to get lots of "debuffs", or do I not and just try to take pure damage. For me it mainly discouraged me on trying to level up, which I would prefer to do as leveling up with new dying assisting powers stacking on would be more fun to me. I wonder if instead of healing instead you just had an extra massive health bar? Just a thought I had while playing.
Other than my tiny critique though this game is very good. Well done to your team submitting and excellent take to the jam!!
Thank you so much for your feedback!
Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to tweak with the numbers..
Currently it only heals 30% of max HP... Might maybe reduce it to 10% or something..
Thanks for playing :)
Funny idea well executed!
Very creative and makes you play in a different way than what you're used to.
Nicely done!
Thank you!
Wow this concept is dark!
2:54min is that a good time?
We tried to keep it lighthearted haha but yeah, it can seem dark i guess.
Our records go as low as 1:45, but someone here said he got a sub 1:30 :D so you be the judge of that
Thanks for playing!
Ok so there is time to improve^^
Be sure to check out my game too
very clever twist of vampire survivors! I love the idea
really enjoyed it! creative entry :)
Thank you! Your game is really cool as well :)
Nice art, fun game. Well done
Thanks for playing!
Very nice game to play. Well done!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for playing!
Nice idea for the theme. It's surprisingly hard to die! Well done :)
Haha that was the point :D Thank you for playing!
i really enjoyed the game. Didn't expect to have trouble with it but seems the character is more sturdy than i thought so :D. Running after projectiles trying to get hit was fun
He's one sturdy guy ;)
Thanks for playing our game!
Morbid fun. Interesting idea that you can fine tune your "build" for a more efficient death :D It's cool when games play against your instincts, like how in the start I'd automatically run for health before having to consciously lead myself away from it. Solid game.
That was definitely our intention and I am glad to hear you enjoyed it!
Thanks :)
The health pack is so brutal, haha -- heals so much -- great mechanic! Really good concept too -- Kinda reminds me of Indestructotank (the 2007 flash game). I couldn't quite tell how much damage the gas or fire was doing though, but really nice work overall!
Glad you liked it :)
Yeah we were trying to balance out a lot of the numbers, but its hard to get a very polished game in 48 hours xD
Thanks for playing!
great concept and implementation! Soo many more mechanics that you can subvert. Definitely interested if you guys are gonna develop it further
Thank you! We might think about it after the jam ends since it seems achievable and we already have a good base for the game.
