How does your game fit the theme?
Before the actual gameplay starts and the robots come at you, and in between waves of robots, the player has a calm period in which they can get a breather from the frantic robot shooting. Also, the theme is advertised on the ingame billboard ;)
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Besides the protagonist’s and the robot's model and animations and the music and sfx, i created everything myself, including models, shaders, animations, lightmapping, ui, code and logic.

Having made a twin stick shooter myself, your game inspires me a lot, so many things that I planned but could not do, I found here, also the game in its demo already looks good, It would be nice to see this one cook.
Great Work!
thank you, i plan on further development of this game once the jam/rating ends! Good luck with your project, i hope you create a nice twin stick shooter :)
Feels really good to play. With just a bit more variety in enemies and upgrades, I could easily see myself playing this for a very long time. Waiting for the paperclip update.
Thanks for sharing with my stream! Here's the VOD of your game: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2253652240?t=00h37m00s
thank you for playing :) Paperclip will definitely make it in the next version!
A solid twin stick shooter, your model made match the ones you imported so there isn't a divide in style or quality. To improve maybe add a store or have items be dropped at set waves.
thank you :) starting from wave 3 there is a random drop from killed robots that increases weapon spread. I plan on further development of this game once the jam/rating ends!
Realy nice and smooth game! Nice graphics and music. I wish it supported keyboard mouse too.
GJ!
thank you :)
this is really good. with enough content this could grow into a full game, the core is really solid.
good job!
thank you :) i plan on further development of this game, adding more enemies, guns, explosions...
glad to hear, keep at it mate!
Really awesome game! Controls feel great and the audio is good too. Nice work!
thank you :) i’m glad you enjoyed it!
That is incredible. Good job on getting such a polished game in one week. This is absolutely amazing. I would have played the whole evening if I could. One thing I would change possibly is having manual upgrades somehow. That would have got me playing even longer. But that is complaining on a very high level.
thank you :) i plan on further development of this game once the jam/rating ends! the game will have multiple (larger) maps, more enemies, more guns, more explosions…
i love the environment and the core gameplay loop is solid for a jam game i am really impressed! if you wanna further develop this into a bigger game i would suggest some rogue elements and hit feedback from enemies would make it a perfect game!
thank you :) yes i plan on further development of this game once the jam/rating ends!
Great looking game and core playing was fun! This concept could be easily build upon, maybe have a situations to find ammo or things would go from calm to hectic for a while and then back to calm etc. Good job!
thank you :) i plan on further development of this game once the jam/rating ends
Unfortunately I couldn't play it because i don't have a controller, but i liked the music on the title screen.
thank you :) too bad you don’t have a controller...
if you do not have a controller then maybe you can take a look at this gameplay video (huge thanks to HexNuclid) and rate based on what you see there :) => https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2253652240?t=00h37m00s
Unfortunately I don't have a controller but the game look so fun!
thank you :) wish you would have a controller so you could experience the gameplay also

Please forgive me! But I won't be able to play it, I don't have a gamepad, but the music pleased me at the beginning, it rocks:3

First off, pro tip, especially for a jam, more accessibility is better especially since not everyone has a controller lol, you could say that it is recommended just allow keyboard as well, luckily I had a controller and got to play it, I enjoy it very simple and fun the game feels polished and overall good job
thank you :) i am glad you have found your controller!
Dang, my keyboard doesn't have an "any" button.
hahaha no it does not, this game is a twin stick shooter, wouldn’t be the same experience with mouse/keyboard :)

Wish there was a way to play with keyboard and mouse, but the game itself is pretty cool!
thank you :) wish there was 2 sticks on a keyboard :)
good but there is infinte ammo xD
thank you :) i plan on further development of this game once the jam/rating ends, there is now only 1 gun in the game, but could add more like a flamethrower or rocket launcher which could have there ammo limited, but i like the default gun to have infinite ammo, it is something you see in lots of twin stick shooters.
Visually the game is super great, I actually enjoyed retrying multiple times and getting further!
Feedback:
- Having infinite ammo is a bit of a miss. I would make sense that the robots drop some kind of ammo pack which would make it slightly more difficult.
- Only having a single life felt a bit bad, there wasn't any forgiveness at all.
- Only game pad support is also a bit sad, but the controls feel nice!
thank you :) nice to hear you enjoyed the experience! i plan on further development of this game once the jam/rating ends, there is now only 1 gun in the game, but could add more like a flamethrower or rocket launcher which could have there ammo limited, but i like the default gun to have infinite ammo, it is something you see in lots of twin stick shooters. The single life insta-death thing is also kinda part of the game, but the robots could drop shields for example so you would have an extra hit. And lastly, i understand the request for mouse/keyboard controls but that would not be the same experience as just point and auto shoot like you can with a controller stick.
Had lots of fun with this game! The game loop is addicting!
thank you, i’m so glad you like it :)
Lol brought out the controller for this one. Was worth it tho! :) Great game
ah great thank you :)
Ayyy! I enjoyed this one! Your graphics are super well done and the game was definitely enjoyable to play! I was looking forward to ability upgrades or different weapons, but I didn't see them :<
The UI also didn't completely go away after a wave was completed (its opacity was stuck at like 10% or something). Nice game!
thank you :) starting from wave 3 there is a random drop from a killed robot that upgrades weapon spread, more upgrades and explosive stuff coming in later versions :) the ui thingy is an unfinished Mathf.Lerp, can’t change it now but thanks for mentioning!
Ahh, gotcha. I died at the start of wave three on my last play through, I'll need to give it another go then :P
Curse you Lerp! lol! I had fun, will play again!
