fun little game!!!! i love the sound effects and all the creature designs!!
there's something so satisfying about how the frog shoots the bullets... seriously congrats on your first jam entry!!!
Congrats on your first jam submission! Nice to see there are fellow Linux developers out there. Nice game, controls are smooth and lots of slime :-)
Thank you, I also really enjoyed your game. It's awesome you used Godot. I think I wouldn't have finished if I used Godot, but at some point I need to pick it up. Is there a chance you might do a Linux binary/AppImage later?
Sure. I'm planning on adding some stuff to the game I didn't get done for the jam, and I'll make binaries too. Godot is really great, I do recommend it, but I'm still learning how to use it, and there's a lot to learn.
Sounds are fun, shooting is nice. But yeah - randomly spawning fishes can spawn really close to you. It's not really fair.
Thank you, I've actually already fixed this problem, but after the jam. You're correct, they can even spawn on top of you in the version I posted for the Jam.
Very fun game! I really liked how the game felt, killing the fishes was very impactful and you could feel the force of the main attack. Only problem I have is that sometimes fishes will spawn very close to the player and you won't have much time to react. Other than that and a few more upgrades i could play this game for hours!
Thanks, you're right on about the fishes and the power ups... I've made a few changes since the jam: fixed the spawn on top issue, made the pink slime weapon last a bit longer, and animated both the frog and fishes. I'm thinking I might add a couple more things later, but appreciate the feedback. Honestly, I just wanted to get something in and actually finish a jam. BTW, really enjoyed your game too.
Really enjoying this. The game-feel is awesome, I can blast through these guys for ages. Satisfying sound, enough screen-shake, and simple but easy on the eyes. I also did an arena shooter sort of thing, but this just feels so much better to play. Great job!
Thanks Max, I tried playing your game on my Windows laptop, but it seems like it doesn't have the right opengl version. I watched last night's stream and I actually really like the shooting mechanic on yours.
Your game has a bit of that Necro-dancer vibe, where you have to time things correctly. Your enemies are pretty awesome too. I'm going to try to play this on my better half's machine later, but what I saw looked fun.
Oh, that sucks!! I wish I had a way to fix this :(
Thank you for your interest, though, and I appreciate the compliment! Necrodancer's high praise haha. I've received more ratings than I even expected, so don't trouble yourself too much. Thanks again!!
