Did you work in a team?
This was a solo effort and it turned out better than expected.

Was the resolution a challenge?
The resolution wasn't really a problem, my main project is low resolution so I've got some experience already.

What did you learn?
What I learned was that I remember how to do more things from the top of my head than I thought.
I didn't really go into this wanting to do something new, I just wanted to make a Doom / Quake style FPS and thought why not do it for a jam.

Its really awesome (checking every pixel: what is that pixel doing - damn it shooting at me - SHOOT BACK!)

Thanks, glad you like it. ^^

And yeah, the resolution makes things quite hard to see at times but eh, it is what it is. ;)

Wow, this is very impressive! The graphics and audio are amazing and the gameplay feels super solid!

My only nitpick is that it's hard to see the enemies against the background, which is something we struggled with as well. We ended up removing most details from textures, making them closer to a single solid color, which helped, but it's a bit of a trade-off. The zoom helped though, so that's a smart addition!

Excellent job!

Hey, thanks for playing, glad you liked it. ^^

Yeah things can be hard to see at times, mostly because of the resolution, I could have done a few things like what you mentioned and putting the fog closer for example but it is what it is.

Thanks for the feedback. :)

I mean this with the upmost respect, but your game contains the red cross, you can't use that symbol, it's protected under the Geneva Convention.

Huh, I read up a bit more on this, I had no idea, guess I'll be changing it then, thanks for letting me know.

Very fun FPS game! It felt very polished and satisfying to jump around and shoot enemies! It was a bit difficult to see what was going on in the levels at times, so it took me a while to beat them. However, I had a lot of fun!

I loved it. Reminded me a lot of 90s FPS games. That was a lot of fun, and I really enjoyed the music.

Really really fun to play! until I get lost :( This is a game that I feels will work better with a little more resolution. It's amazing how polished it is too. Congrats!

Hey, thanks for playing. ^^

Yeah it can become a bit confusing and easy to get lost at times, mostly because of the resolution, I could have done a few more things to try and combat that but this is how it ended up.

Thanks for the feedback. :)

This game rocks. It feels very much like a 90s shooter. Like others said, it is a bit hard to see things but that is understandable for this jam. Also I got stuck on the third level, the one with the trees. Do you have any advice?

Hey, thanks for playing. :)

Yeah it can be hard to see at times, but there's not really much I can do about that, there's a few things but eh, it is what it is for now.

As for the tree level, there's a point where you have to jump over the water around the corner of a tree.

That's the only place I can think of in terms of being lost in the level, assuming this is what you meant.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback. ^^

Thanks for responding. I made it to the doors which require different colored key in the forest level. I still think the game is really fun. Good job.

ApapappaDeveloperSubmitted3 years ago

Oh yeah, I kinda forgot about the first key, it's hidden in the forest part of the level. ^^

And thanks again, glad you liked it. :)

Your welcome. I'll try to beat the game.
