The player's arms are fascinating and the reverb on the drums gave it a cave/cavern vibe. Only issue I had was having to left click and click the scrollwheel at the same time to shoot for some reason :/

Pretty cool game. But the OST did not fit to the game

Nice game, neat music, but I'm sure if it fits the mood well. Also it lacks sfx, it would be cool for feeback when you hit spiders. The visuals are pretty nice tho, and the game overall is pretty fun :)

Had a cool concept, however, I couldn't figure out the combat, a better description of how to play might have helped. There were also some issues with how the game played, the collisions felt buggy, and fragile, and there were certain areas where I could clip through. Maybe some better sound design to add to the scary ambiance would have helped. The game did have a cool concept, the art was creepy, and unique, very stylized. The lighting also really gave off a creepy vibe. Good job on that.

I sadly could not play the game in my browser so it would have been cool to have a download

Developer

That's unfortunate.. you're the first person to report this! What happens if you click play? Do you get an error or something, or does it not load?

It does not load, but i have some problems with my browser so its not your fault

Developer

Oh okay, that's fine, no worries!

But thank you for the feedback on my game

I think the general idea was great, though I fell like the soundtrack doesn't really match the game theme. Would also be nice to add a reload function or something so the player can't shoot forever, I was just camping the spawn points and killing the damn thing as soon as they spawned.

I like the environment! Good job and congrats on the entry!

Really love the OST and the sprites of the character ! well done !

Miss a bit feedback when shooting, but nice entry !

Atmosphere and environment were the definite high points in this game! I really got some creeps running up my spine while playing. Had some problems trying to shoot the spiders until I realized that you have to hold down the button to shoot, not just clicking. I think this game could work really well as a game where you progress in the dungeon and gain new weapons, in the end killing a spider queen! Overall, a good experience.

We'd greatly appreciate if you had time to check out our submission! :)

Thank you for the in-depth review,  much appreciated! I'll definitely check out 'Bad  Mothershippers'  :)

The graphics are amazing!

As someone who suffers from arachnophobia, this game is pretty great for my nerves! But it does feel good to shoot thes tiny eight-legged fucker with a handgun!

Submitted

The Shooting feels a bit off took me a bit to realize you can only shoot if your aim is directly on a spider

You monster. What compels you? But to play devil's advocate: I think it should've had an ambient grumble with the occasional positional audio cue from spiders, instead of an arachnic disco dance mix for its music. Yknow, it kinda kills the mood. Also I want the big spider to chase me! It's just cardboard :(
