It feels like lost in random in art and style, which is a great feat, no idea how to make surfaces look like that. This has the exact best amount of creepiness, awesome work.

Thanks, the die was indeed a reference ! For the textures, the main tip is to downgrade their resolution (and then some shader magic) :) We did put some efforts on the atmosphere, we're glad to see you liked it !

Does the game contain any sound? It was completely silent.

Anyways, great concept, good graphics and cool mechanics (I love how the enemy's life is counted on its "face"). There are some "blind spots" near walls, where enemy's A.I. cannot follow the player (but can still trow those kind of tomatoes). Overall good entry, good luck!

Developer

Thanks for playing, yeah unfortunately we didn't have enough time to put any sounds/music in the game ! :( and yes those are definitely tomatoes they are throwing lol

i think it would be more fun if the weapon can fire automatically, good work on the level.

Developer

The movement is buttery smooth! The atmosphere you created with the art was what initially attracted us, but we wish you would have had BGM and SFX to add to your art direction as well.  Would love to see where this concept goes from here! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot ! Kudos to our artist, he really did a great job and yeah we also wish we had some time to implement at least a BGM but we fixed bugs till the very end haha. We'll definitely polish the game with sounds and some more polished feedbacks/UI/UX once the votes are over :)

Submitted

That sounds great! Keep up the great work.

I wasn't expecting an FPS to work so well with the theme for this jam! The subtle little things in this game are what made me really enjoy this. For example, the tilt in the camera when moving side to side and the fact that the dice have their health shown at the front. That was a really unique way to indicate health without making it a boring healthbar above their head. Overall, great game!

Developer

Thanks a lot for your kind words, we did take the time to try and create a nice game feel, we're glad to see it's appreciated !

Nice simple FPS game. The movement is really smooth and the tilt when moving makes you feel faster and more immersed which was a nice touch. Just personal preference but the minimum sensitivity was not enough for me so I wasn't quite used with the aiming. Still an amazing game and the visuals are really nice with nice choice of style. Overall a fun game.

Developer(+1)

When I reilized that dots it is health, I was like 'Ok, six is maximum hp value' and then that huge dice appeard. lol!

It looks awsome and plays very smooth, but don't have any sound. Anyway it was pretty exciting experience!

Developer
