oh this is a very nice game, moving the player around and shooting feels good, but why do those villagers keep coming outside, i have to tell them every day to stay inside, feels like the covid period when everyone had to stay indoors :D 

Submitted

A very fun and well-made game! It's solid how it defines the calm and then the moment of the storm. Shooting the enemies feels great! From the moment you fire to when they shatter on the ground, it's very satisfying! The written story of the game is also fun and very well done! Congratulations

LMAOO THAT WAS SO FUN. i didnt read the game description and anything and was very confused. why am i telling these people to go home? well decorating the town seems fun lets place bushes all around and spend all my money on that. and while i was just merrily placing bushes and decorating the town. suddenly night struck and the music changed, and i had a gun in my hand and there were zombies all around. it caught me off guard lmao that was fun to go from decoratng a town to shooting enemies in the face. great game! but also i think theres an issue with ur tilemap cuz theres a bit of flickering like i can sometimes see vertical lines inbetween the tiles while moving for 0.1 second. not a gamebreaker though!

Submitted

That was fun! The audio is so nice! I love the slap sound to send the villagers home.

Submitted

The shotgun sound is so good man.......... Destroying tons of enemies with it is very satisfying, however, searching for enemies not so much. I understand there is a sound announcing where they come from, but I think some sort of minimap would work better

Submitted

This is great.

Really good game! I enjoyed it and it was fun doing the shooting, great job :)

I really enjoyed trying your game—super fun! If you have some time, I’d love for you to try my game as well. I know it’s a download and not as quick as playing in the browser, but I’d really value your feedback to know if the mechanics and ideas are engaging. It would mean a lot as I continue refining it!

Submitted

Really liked the shooting! Especially with the screen shake and blood splatter! Would be nice if there’s some indication on where the monsters show up

Submitted

The thematic was very well implemented, super sattisfying. simple calm, panic everything. maybe adding limited bullets, since we are never lossing if we defend just 1 villager

Developer

Thanks for playing. I would say give it a go with one villager and see what happens 😂

Submitted

bro i just tried it what was that lmao(no spoilers)

Submitted

the shooting is super satisfying! i adore the simplistic graphics as well, this is some awesome stuff :)

Submitted

from the shotgun screen shake to fitting in the theme cool game

Submitted

Great twist - spent the first day putting down bushes in places that looked nice but weren't very practical, haha.

The feel of the shooting was perfect. Loved the panic of rushing to put more bushes down while telling everyone to get home.

I enjoyed this game. Would be awesome to be able to place different types of objects with variable durability. Well done

Submitted

Great Work!

Love the idea and the shooting is super satisfying. Great game!! I agree with the others that more depth would be nice.

Jesus what a little twist haha. Such a cute little art style and sound design combined with amazing gun feel. Really well done and it was unexpected! Lacks a bit of depth  but feels SUPER good to play.

Submitted

I really liked the gun, the sound felt great and it felt powerful, also the movement felt good :D I also liked that I didn’t have to care about the people being in the bullet trajectory, I could just shoot the evil monsters which made it more fun.

I reached day 6 before I let the monsters eat the people left to see the game over screen, at the end felt a bit like an escort mission haha. It’s good being able to do something while waiting the night but I preferred the night time.

Oh, also it’s nice to see the little text of the people and how when there is less, they seem to notice a little bit haha.

Good little time ^^

Ah you should have left one remaining (small Easter egg there!) Thanks for playing

Oh, I should try this, thanks for letting me know :D

Well, that was a fun one hahaha

Submitted

I love how satisfying the shotgun was, that gun is a blast! Really good sound effect and animation. My dumb ass villagers wouldnt stay in their god damn houses though, "I want to go for a late night stroll" NO YOU DONT YOU SON OF A... It got me agitated. 

Fun game, fun concept it fit with the theme well with good graphics, innovation and good audio.

Well done!

Submitted

Nice concept! I feel bad about my dead citizens :(((
