This seems like it was quite the effort to make. Always a gamble going this type of game in a jam, and you've always gotta cut some corners somewhere. In this case, the controls were really lacking for the type of game. An action game has to feel responsive, and I often found myself mashing on the button to put away my rifle, things like that.
Also, I couldn't quite tell if the game was over when it said "SURVIVOR", but I assumed it was since nothing really seemed to happen after that moment. That said, an impressive little piece of work for the time given, reminds me somewhat of the old PS1/2 style action games. Thanks for making it!
Thanks for the feedback, and I agree the controls are not as responsive as I would like which was a time issue for sure. Since sending in my entry I've since tweaked that exact thing and also did a couple of bug fixes and changed some of the things to the NPCs. The game definitely does not have a proper end I wasn't for sure where I wanted to go with it. Maybe you have an suggestion.
