I love the elevator music, haha. Super interesting gimmick, but I think the weapons are just a *little* too punishing to use, and mainly encourages running away (which is fine, but most people find combat more interesting.) Already a solid entry, and if you ever wanted to expand it I bet it'd be great!

Thanks! I really only focused on the pistol and not the others which is why they are a bit unbalanced. I'll probably need to change their stats eventually.

An enjoyable little game! The tutorial was really cool and the addition of the elevator made the game funny! The ending was interesting haha, although simple it was fun, good job!

Developer

Thanks!

Liked the concept of the game, loosing lives while shooting. Game feels clean, music is cool, tutorial straight and clear.


Just a little things that might help You in the further development I noticed. When there is a diagonal movement, You move fast.. (quick fix: if You move diagonally, move to the two directions * square root of 2).

And when switching to a different weapon other than pistol, I was not able to switch back with the 1 key.. (might have just been pressing a wrong key (using macOS))


Allover a really cool game, as I said I like the concept of it.. not being forced to kill a monster to go through the level.

Great coding, Jacob.

Developer

Thanks! The movement code was simply "when key pressed move this direction at this speed" so it probably doubled the speed when two buttons were pressed. But the not being able to switch to the pistol seems weird. It might be  an OS difference because I was using a windows so I'll see what I can do.

Submitted

Yeah, might be.. OS difference always finds itself something to make not working.

Cool game, also good use of limitation, you don't have to kill everyone in order to advance, but the shotgun and rocket launcher for some reason seems a bit unviable

Developer

Thanks! I don't think I spent as much time into the shotgun and rocket launcher, so they aren't so useful sadly. Though I thought of the rocket launcher as a way to clear up big piles of enemies. And the shotgun, uhm, we don't talk about the shotgun.
