Thanks for giving it a try! Unfortunately the game does use around 5-6 gigs of video memory which is likely why you ran into the issue (I assume you have either a 4 or 6 gig card). This is mainly because of the sprite sets for the player and enemies, as those are pretty high resolution, decently high frame rate, and are generated for 8 different directions, so they end up using a lot of video memory to keep that all loaded. Again I'm sorry you couldn't play it, I wish I had more time to optimize it :(
Thanks man! Here's my game and I'll check yours out now :)

Just gave it a shot and I think that you mentioned that the build you uploaded was unfortunately broken which I think was why I couldn't really move anywhere when I spawned in the world. Despite that, I really liked the intro cinematic and the audio too, it had a really nice atmosphere and I wish that I could have experienced more of the game!
I love the visual style in this game! Its really unique and has an appealing color scheme. The game idea is solid too, it was fun to drive around and invest in properties and things, it reminds me of monopoly lol. One thing I noticed is that the car collisions were a bit messed up and it wouldn't really let me drive around one of the blocks, but other than that it worked as intended I think. Good job!
This game has some really cool visuals and the mechanics are simple but nice! I think that a bit of text at the start maybe giving the player some context as to what they are doing and where they are would be helpful to ground them, though this isn't totally necessary since its a game jam and you wrote it in the description. I collected a few purple orbs and then I tried to jump over a ravine but got stuck at the bottom lol, not sure where I was supposed to go after that but I still enjoyed the game, nice job!
Thanks so much for playing! As for the stamina mechanic, I was gonna use it more but ended up getting sick near the end of the jam so didn't have the energy to add as much as I would have liked. That's why it feels weirdly thrown in there (because it kind of is in its current state lol). Thanks again for playing though and I'll give your game a shot!
Here's mine if you want to check it out, will give yours a shot now!

Yeah I have a ton of respect for composers and sound effect people because that shit is insanely hard! I don't know what happened with the composer but the early work he showed me was super solid so I think he has a ton of skill, no bad blood between us at all or anything, sometimes life just gets in the way
No problem about the technical issues, that's super common in game jams and I've definitely experienced it myself before as well. What matters is you use it in the future to improve and you already have a super good base so I think your future projects are going to be super cool! I already mentioned this but I really love the art style since I'm a sucker for retro games lol.
Thanks so much man! Honestly the part I was most worried about was how people would interpret the theme but I'm really glad you thought it matched. I agree with the machine gun feedback, I initially had it take more health when missing but my single playtester had awful aim so he told me to make it less so I did (should have just told him skill issue though lol)
Oh ok update I managed to get into the game but the screen is a tiny window for some reason, the graphics are still really cool though! Also just did the boss fight and the animations are surprisingly good, especially for a game jam. I think with some polish this game could be something really amazing!
