Nice and original game :)

Very creative concept, the first level is easy enough and I was able to pass it, but the second one is too difficult for me: there are so many people that I just don't have time to notice the vampires, I couldn't pass it. The game is very original I like it

That was really cool! I so did not think of using windows like this at all, and the arcade style is great! If there was a little countdown that gave me time to read the quip at the top and get an idea of what to do that'd help. When I got to level two I thought it was trying to explain a new mechanic, but I didn't have time to read it. Sick game though, I think I got to round 3 or 4 before shooting a cluster of people thinking there was a vampire in there.

Thanks for playing! I did want to add a little countdown but was pretty tired by the end, I kinda wish I did now.

Really good use of the limitation and theme, it's a really cool game. I found that sometimes I just coudn't shoot when I click it didn't broke the window or shoot the vampire or make the sound, is there any cadence time or something like that?

Developer

There shouldn't be, not really sure what that's about... Sorry! Haven't experienced it myself sadly. Glad you still enjoyed!

Very creative nice approach to theme and limitation Good Job

This was amazingly simple and fun! My only nitpick is that it would be nice to be shown which person was a vampire when you lose so that you could see where you went wrong.

Being a vampire hunter never felt so intense! It's fast-paced, and you need a keen attention to detail. Awesome fun!

What a cool mechanic, I love this idea. And how the game punishes you for mising is so awesome as well. This is hands down one of the best games this Jam. Good job!!
