I've spent some minutes on this game :) I've got an idea about reinforcing the cleaning mechanic. I thin it could be nice to have a monster that can eat the remains of the others and becomestronger and stronger by doing eat. So you'd have to focus them as soon as possible while dodging other projectiles or force you to clean in the middle of the battle which can be risky :)

ECLIPSECool game. I do want to note that the balance here feels really weak. The enemies are weak and easy kill, they drop so much stuff, that you can upgrade everything quickly. And the turret seems to just defeat the purpose of cleaning up the bodies, as it does it for you.

The WitchhuntHey good work, first FPS I've played where you have to clear the bloody mess you left behind you. Also I love the health recycle mechanic, that's really clever from a game design perspective.
My only complain about the game would be the lack of upgrades (what did I do with all that money ?!), the simple level design, and the overall easiness of the fights, there are too many heart drop and enemies are not so dangerous, when you camp in a room like a scum. Great stuff.

BRUTAL RECOILThis game is great! I especially like the feedback you get from shooting enemies. The game also looks great!

Critical Clinic Coordinatorthis game is genuinely so good
i love the art, the controls, the overall game feel, the use of the limitation, i could go on and on
that said, there are also some problems
- visual noise: especially as you clear more floors, it gets VERY visually noisy with coins flying at you, turrets shooting, enemy projectiles, muzzle flashes, corpses and enemies every, etc. It would be nice if some of this visual noise was reduced a bit, also some of the monsters would get covered up by or blend in with the corpses which made it hard to see them
- sameness: each level is pretty much exactly the same as the previous one, but with more enemies. This is a game jam game so i won't really knock for you this one since level design takes a while, but if you ever plan on expanding on this game it could be really cool to invest time into things like procedural generation to create more unique levels
- lack of exploration incentive: This kind of builds on the previous one, but there isn't much reason to explore at all. Since all the levels are the same and all the enemies just come to you, there isn't much reason to leave the main room or explore much at all. It would be nice if farther away enemies sort of stayed in their area, and maybe you could add little loot boxes and such around the map that have upgrades, coins, health, and maybe even new eapons
But don't let these critiques make you think this game isn't amazing, i absolutely loved playing this game! I completed tens of floors, got every upgrade, and collected tens of thousands of coins, I'm not sure what it was exactly, but something about this game had me hooked, amazing job!

E.V.I.L.Thank you very much for the detailed feedback! Glad you enjoyed the game!
Yeah I definitely should've spent more time on the levels layout. It is kinda hard to get good procedurally generated maps with the doom engine since the scripting language is very limited and the level's sectors can't be created at run time. So the whole map layout has to be created first and then at run time sectors get randomly opened/closed. There is a neater way to do this with portals and prefab sectors but I didn't have time to look into that.
Thanks again for playing and for the feedback! I really appreciate it!
This game is very well executed! Nice art, and I think the gun that has multiple use has a lot of potential. Also, very ecoresponsible concept! I found the game very hard, but I'm not used to those kind of games (doom like)
