Nice twist on the theme, but the aiming felt really inaccurate and floaty. Music and sound effects are pretty good tho

I can't believe how tense the game got, especially at the very end! That paired with the music made it really fun to play. Great work!

BitByte DefenderThanks very much! Yeah the aiming could probably be improved really easily actually - at the moment there are 3 rays cast from your gun that have about a 10 degree spread, when you fire you do 1 damage for each ray that collides, and the infected have 3 hp - this means that you can kill them in one shot if you're close enough but the gun is less effective at longer range (it is a shotgun after all!). The problem is that at longer distances its more difficult to land that shot... if I up the casts to 5 or 7, and increase the infected's hp to suit then it would be easier to hit them and shouldn't ruin the balance too much...
"what happens when tree reaches full growth?" kept me engaged :D well done, i know you had some stress with this one so good job on making and submitting it! :)

Truck Pet Simulator 👁️👄👁️Woow, I love seeing fps games in gamejams. They are hard to make from the start and quite a challenge. I loved shooting the zombies and protecting my tree. Small feedback if I can. The zombies could have random speed. That way when you try to move away from your tree, it's at the risk of having a zombie rush at it and destroy it. Loved that game, you can be proud of what you made is so little time 😄

Attack before they grow!Cool idea! Would've been nice to have some kind of indicator or feedback so I know when I've hit, but other than that great job for the time you spent on it!

Super Hat ManThe take on theme is nice, the gameplay could be improved with time.

Star DestroyerYes, what was said before, pretty ambitious and creative implementation of the theme. Hit indicators was I think what I was missing the most.

Pop The BubbleThat's some pretty intense music :D That was super ambitious to make a third person shooter during a jam. You did a great job with those animation assets and the damage falloff is a really cool touch as well. It's a shame there's no feedback on a hit and the crosshair isn't visible above the targets. I enjoyed it though, and managed to save the tree.

Mushroom RushroomWell made for this small amount of time!
I was worried too when I saw the small freeze, but it wasn't that long, so I guess it's still a nice idea to put the warning in the description :p.
I guess you already know what kind of more polished thing you could have added, but really, it worked pretty well for a 8-10h game, well done!
