I don't think is working for me, im pressing W and S or up and down keys but nothing works, i just die

Submitted

some sound effects and music would have done some wonders for your game but it is what it is. The game was simple enough to figure out the only times I had issues was when two sword guy came at me at once I attack one click the arrow to turn to the other to attack him but attack in the same direction probably clicked the attack button to soon. But good work on your game.

Submitted

Very interesting concept! The game was a bit too difficult for me to survive the full two minutes, but I really enjoyed the look and feel of the created atmosphere! I would have liked to have some sounds adding to the overall presentation of the aesthetics (which I loved!), but of course I understand the issues with the 72-hour time limit! Still, I think this is a very good concept and a really cute idea to expand on, if you so choose! Good job on it! ^^

Submitted

i like it, UI could have used a bit more work, but other than that it's Really Good!

Pretty fun concept. It's interesting how you have to balance out your 2 actions. The graphics were nice and some sounds would have added a lot. Was a bit hard at first. Maybe needs to ease into the difficulty more.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I really wanted to add some juice into it along with some sounds, but unfortunately I did not have enough time to implement them. I'll be putting them on as an update once the jam ends.

Need to be balanced a bit yes but overall a solid game! Execute perfectly good work!

Developer

Thank you for playing my game!

The humans are moving quite fast. Challenging but i like the game.  I think there is a bug here whenever I pressed spacebar the red transition effect keeping taking place(?)

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yup, there's a bug with the transition effect. The restart button is binded to the space bar by default, which I didn't know while making the game.

Submitted

I really like this game a lot! 

The screen transitions were super cool although sometimes they were a bit broken they looked really good. You really used the limitation well and it fit the theme aswell. One thing I would say is that the sucking blood was kind of hard sometimes. Did not work all the time. Really good game! Keep it up.

Developer

Thank you! I actually had a hard time thinking about what to make for this jam. The ideas pretty much only got developed along the way, and I'm glad it worked (though buggy). About the "sucking blood" mechanic, there is a bug which makes it a lot harder to do. I'll be fixing it once the jam ends.

Submitted

Very simple and very fun.


I will say sucking blood is a bit finicky, as I will press up at people and sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. But using blood as a weapon against people that isn't a vampire is smart, since the limitation isn't "Lethal to all" just lethal.


I made it to the 45 second mark before the controls made it impossible to hit the dude behind me as I was trying to turn around.


You get an 8bit cookie

Developer

Yeah. There's some issues with the "sucking" mechanic. I'll be updating it with the fixes after the jam ends. Thank for playing my game, and thanks for the 8-bit cookie!

Submitted

Very simple, but interesting. Sometimes sucking didn't count, but that was only a couple of times. Reached 00:02 and I got killed :((

Developer(+1)

Ooh, that was a close one! The pesants actually has a bug wherein it does not get detected by the vampire sometimes. Thanks for playing the game!

Submitted

Definitely challenging. Wish peasents are little slower. I wonder if anybody make it to the end.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for trying my game out! I have actually managed to only beat the game twice, as of now. I guess no one has managed to beat it yet, since no one has reported yet that the "Restart" button at the end screen does not work.

Submitted

Using blood as a weapon is cool if I could actually get the blood in time before I get attacked. Like the people run really fast and you only get one or two chances before getting killed was my experience.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for checking out my game! The spawning is actually random, but enemies will take longer to spawn than civilians. Their movement speed  will need an adjustment really though, as a lot of players have noticed it to be too fast.

Submitted

Not bad. Very simple but addictive game. Thank you.

Thanks you!

Nice game, i liked the parallax effect on the background, great! However i "suck" at timing the attacks (haha funni jok)

Developer

Nice one! Thanks for playing the game.

Submitted

I enjoyed the pixel simple pixel art and the colors. The sucking was a little weird - or maybe I'm just bad at timing. I resorted to mashing the button whenever a person was over me.

Also you could suck and attack at the same time? That is probably a good thing tho, because the game was hard as heck.

Also, I think there's a bug, where you can hit the replay button offscreen? maybe it is intended? When I hit Enter or SpaceBar the game would restart again and again while playing, even after I stopped pressing the button? Idk, I didn't really understand the bug.

Great effort and nice outcome.

Developer

Thank you fo the feedback.
I actually was not aware of the replay button bug. Thanks for reporting it!

Submitted

Awesome idea, awesome hardcore game. If you have very good reaction this game for you. 10 times i have died and happy that lived more than 30 seconds.
It very fun. =)

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you had fun

Submitted

cool game just really hard

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Submitted

First I couldn't figure out how to avoid or kill the people with the knives.  Then luckily I saw here that sucking blood charges the attack. It's a coolidea and I like your pixel art atmosphere. I still thought it was a little bit hard, because the attackers came in so fast.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback! Unfortunately, I did not have enough time to create a proper "How to Play"  guide inside the game.

 the game is good and the idea . sometimes you get the peasant with sword  spawning  at player position so you die directly.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Sadly, the spawning system has a ton of bugs I wasn't able to fix during the duration of the jam.
