Man this would be next level fun with the audio put in! I need more guns and power ups haha. Might be my favorite so far!

Developer

Thanks for enjoying it! I'll be working on a post jam version with sound and other improvements such as different rooms and all 14 of the originally planned guns lol

Super nice game

i loved the experience, everything seemed so great and the way the theme was introduced was so innovative 
the only downside would be that it's hard to aim since the cursor moves so slow in the game 

but all the rest is great, would be a great game to follow through with 

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah, there's a sensitivity slider but apparently max speed on it is still a little too low for some of my friends. Guess I just like really slow mouse speed lol. I'll be updating the game with a post jam version eventually which will have some things like that fixed along with general improvements

Submitted(+1)

man, loved the art style, I really want to do something like this, a first person shooter dungeon crawler, man I would join in a project with you

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! I'll be updating with a post jam version once the rating period is over

Game Idea is very unique and i loved the overall game artwork.

Submitted(+1)

I totally adore this concept, gotta ding you points for no sound tho.

Its especially odd because you have a volume slider button in your menu, witch I assume based on the 'Title Screen' is a prefab you up-cycled, (nothing wrong with that) but it was so close to having a nice coat of polish on top.

At first the darkness of the levels seemed a little oppressive, but it really emphasized the need to always be shooting and therefore introducing more chaos into the levels, turning every room into some kind of hellish nightclub dance floor.

I almost missed out on the purple orb heavy pistol type weapon, thinking it was the same as the base rifle, so a bright pink or purple coat of paint on that one would go a long way there.

Your shotgun gets a solid A for fun factor (I Gotta judge every FPS by its shotgun), and the health pickups seem generous enough for the typical amount of self harm your likely to inflict in a room.

I also am in love with the pixelated camera resolution, It really makes the otherwise dull stock assets pop.

Overall SUPER FUN GAME but, YOU REALLY NEED SOME MUSIC! Lots of great royalty free Drum & Base songs out there on Newgrounds just waiting to really make this game sing.

Developer

Glad you liked the game! Yeah, the pixelation effect was a great solution to make the lasers look good and to help with the shitty dungeon prop pack I was using. As for sound, I just ran out of time. The last build I uploaded (like 30 seconds before the deadline despite the fact that it says 15 mins on my page) actually has a music track set up but it's muted cause there was an issue and I didn't have time to debug lol. I'll have some of these things ironed out in a post jam release though. Thanks for playing!

Realy interesant game. I like it

Submitted(+1)

The lasers look so cool :0 great game :D

Submitted(+1)

to be fair it was to chaotic for me without sound, and in all those bouncing lasers it was hard to spot enemies so I was dying to fast not realizing what is happening :P Still graphics were great, lasers bouncing off everything creates beautiful madness there! few more touches and it would be pretty nice shooter!

Submitted(+1)

great game with great potential
Too bad there are no sounds, but otherwise it's amazing :DDD

Submitted(+1)

very very cool concept but it could have been nice with out pixels like a pure fps 3d game , althogh graphics was cool considering pixels also. enjoyed it.!

Developer

The pixel filter really makes the lasers look nice but I might consider adding a toggle for it in the post jam release. Thanks for playing! I'll be sure to check out yours as well

I really liked this game, both the style and the feel of it. The richocheting lasers is cool, but the issue is I think shooting hurts me more than the enemies. I think the one thing missing that would bring it all together is the lasers disapearing when they hit an enemy. Would both reward acurracy and make the game less frustrating.

Submitted(+1)

Great mechanic, the physics work great on the lasers, I just feel as though I die more to myself than the enemies. I believe this was intentional, but one thing:

Me want to spam lazer cuz fun.

Great job though, loved it!

If you have another person and a controller available to plugin please check out my game!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah the idea is for players to  spam lasers if they want as long as they are being mindful of where they will bounce around. Future level design will revolve around giving the player some cover so that they can be strategic about when to spam and when to be precise. I'll be sure to check out your game if I can find another player

now this is chaos.  great graphics, different types of guns are really nice and satisfying to use. no sfx though unfortunately

Developer

Yeah I kinda ran out of time lol. Thanks for playing and I'm glad you liked it! I'll be sure to play yours as well
