Nice game! I suggest you add some music, more abilities and different models of pedestrians. That would be cool.

Quite a long repetitive game, but it is a fun game

interesting game :) gets a little repetitive but cool overall

Submitted(+1)

I think the game gets a bit too repetitive after some time. overall, nice game! :)

Submitted(+1)

I really like the concept!

They way the npcs get stuck in the screen makes too easy to get a combo tho.

The art is very well made!

Funny game. Need a mechanic to stop the player herding everyone by just moving right.

I had a good time playing this one. The gameplay is not that interesting, but I loved the art style, and the sound effect of the meteor hitting made me laugh every time. Nice job!

Not a bad use of the theme. Also the art style was cute, well done.

Nice game, i killed all old men to see the end :) For me i would prefer a lower body count to end the run. As a German, the Z key is far away the E key would be way better. The idea reminded  me of the movie final destination a few more kill skills would be cool like lightning or falling tree :p


Good job!


Here is my first game jam entry. Check it out if you like:

You're right! I hadn't thought of a German keyboard even though I sometimes use it at work. Falling tree was also in plan but not enough time was to made it. Yes, lightning would be also a nice variety. Thanks for suggestions!

nice  game with a nice sprite design

Submitted(+1)

Cool concept! Would recommend adding enemies to fight and making the cars pass through the player.

Also, perhaps lowering the kill count.

Submitted(+1)

the game is good overall it's still lacking a little tweaks but the idea is great for a prototype

I recommend adding a condition where the player could lose like a time frame or something and decreasing the target a bit  because 200 is too much  good job overall 

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! Quite funny look and feel overall, just lacking some music maybe. Like others have said, it can get a bit repetitive so maybe reduce the initial target and add some more variety of mechanics. Great job nonetheless! 

Submitted(+1)

It's a nice prototype that you had with your own art style, congrats !

Improvements:

I found it somewhat repetitive and had a hard time going through all 200 kills since it got boring rather quickly to be perfectly honest.

A quick improvement would first to add some background music to make the killing a bit more enjoyable, it's a nice trick to make players execute redundant tasks withour realising that time flies.

On that note, it would also be nice to play the attack sound with a random pitch, as having the same sound playing in your ears 200 times (literally) can be tiresome.

What went right:

The game is incredibly straight forward with simple controls, and the UI is great by it's simplicity. You know exactly which ability does what and when you can use them, that's no easy task.

Submitted(+1)

that same sound effect when you kill them is a bit repetive after a while, it is very fun though

Submitted(+1)

Cool concept! I like the art and gameplay loop, however I did feel like it could use a bit more variation. Maybe switching some things up throughout the game could make it even better :). Other than that good work!

Submitted(+1)

fun at first but got boring after awile

Submitted(+1)

Fun to play, all it needed was a point system or something to see the progress. Nice graphics!

Submitted(+1)

Gave me Newgrounds vibes (in a really good way!).  The sounds and animations were satisfying :D  Death deserves a vacation after all this!

Submitted(+1)

fun. i liked killing everyone!
