  • Would have benefitted from better weapon SFX and a level cap but great job overall!

How does your game bring our theme, The Error is the Feature, to life?
Your fire power and damage can grow to absurd amounts. Also, some UI is 'broken'. All UI elements can be shot at, which improves related value (hp/item/score/etc.).

This game has enemies with AI, pretty simple 'walk towards player' xD
Okay, i know what you meant, was not used.

I loved this! Genuinely one of the most fun I've played in a while!

Developer

Glad you liked it!

Are you 'Aj' in the leaderboard?

Yep that's me

Haha very funny game. I was playing it straight up for a little while then realized the glitch. Very amusing implementation. Got the slow mo bug so didn't finish, but enjoyed nonetheless.

The cover art was really nice looking, by the way. It could've been integrated better into the actual game but the character art itself is great.

Developer

Thanks!

Definatelly try again later, this bug is not always there, i guess only if you are too strong :)

What do you mean by 'cover art'? Game logo or game menu? And when you talking about character art that could've been integrated better, are you talking about how it is tricky to control sometimes? 

Submitted(+1)

I meant the game characters as they appear on the main menu and such. Like the main character. And the enemies.  They look good by themself but by integrated better I just mean they look really flat with the background. So that could be an improvement point for the next time is making the art with the camera view of the game in mind.

The end boss is the slo-mo.  I had fun making the numbers go down.

Great art, and good little game with a fun twist!

Developer

Thanks, yeah, slow-mo can be broken at times, but spotted it too late. Thankfully doesn't happen every time

amazing game! It took me one death to learn the ins and outs of the game. Like it says you can shoot at naything to increase its value (sorry Im bad at reading instructions). Clearly the increase fire rate is the way to go. I got such a high fire rate I think I broke the space time continuum (the numbers were flip flopping positive and negative due to number overflow and flipping the negative bit). I love the concept and its very addictive! Amazing art and music. 

Developer

Thanks, yeah, i could limit some numbers (and i did for example for movement speed, because it  makes the game unplayable if you move from corner to corner at a speed of light) bit i figured that number overflow is fun :)

Developer(+1)

btw, i thought about naming this game 'U and I' :)

definatelly will check out your game. Games that play with UI are cool!

Submitted

Great minds think alike ;)

Submitted(+2)

Awesome! addictive! unique!

Developer

Seen you in leaderbord,  good job, seems like you almost broke the game. Next time aim for the speed of fire upgrade (literally aim at it)

Submitted

Hey, I am joining another jam and one of the requirement is leaderboard. would you mind sharing what service you used for that?

Developer

Hi, just the usual Unity services one. It's free and works. But I built the UI myself.  Unity just has API for calls like "AddNewScore, GetTop10Players, etc." So it's not like production ready, you will need to setup it yourself,  like sending, loading, displaying results in ui. Good luck!

Submitted

Thank you!

I really enjoy this style of game, and you managed to introduce the jam theme in a very different, fun, and innovative way!

The art is beautiful, and the music fits perfectly.

As a suggestion, it would be cool to have a hit animation or effect for the main character. I found it a bit difficult when the bigger monsters appear in large quantities, but it was funny.

I also liked the score ranking.

Developer

Yeah, lost hp definatelly need some indication. But if you play your cards(upgrades) right, you don't really need to worry about health after a few minutes :)

(check out game screenshots)

Submitted(+2)

Very good, almost crashed my web browser

Developer(+1)

I take that as a complement :)

Probably should disable enemy-to-enemy collisions, but too late

Submitted(+1)

This was fantastic, what a cool twist on this type of shooter.

Submitted(+1)

quite fun and interesting concept

Submitted(+2)

i think it's quite hard to shoot if the target is near for some reason, but the game is good

Submitted(+1)

cool game, i like the idea, the upgrades are cool!

Submitted(+1)

By far the funnest game I've rated so far. Love the concept and the overall feel of the game is great. Good job twin o7

This was so much fun,  Skylar gave me no choice to play it and try and beat her score. Looks like I flew too close to the sun lol. What a fun game, love that risk of going to hard in a run. Felt so good to play

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing :)

Yeah,  scores can break sometimes, from overflow.

Submitted

wonder how hard it would be to quickly swap the score out for a larger integer? You could possibly use "BigInteger" as a little bug fix while ya can.

Submitted

Are you the one at the bottom of the leaderboard or is there someone that did even less xD?

Submitted(+1)

hahahaha, if I could scroll I'd let ya know :3

Submitted(+1)

Awsome game, I loved that you could heal yourself by shooting the hp bar XD Wish the monsters did not come out so fast, got pretty overwhelming pretty quickly and was not able to do enough damage. 

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Little hint: you can shoot not only the health bar :)

Try increasing shooting speed, and the enemies will be easy. 

I will check the difficulty some more

Submitted

Lol I worked out the strats XD
