Dude, I love the sound design lol

Thank you! All the sound effects are my voice, mostly because I'm not good at finding sound effects with the right license :)

I loved listening to all the different sound effects in the game.  Especially the "ouchie" and the gravely sounding "meow". It was very funny. The game was fun too! I felt like the keyboard controls were a little hard on my hands. Having to use WASD, and the arrow keys, and shift to shoot, just stretched my hands out a little too much. I think I would have preferred it if moving with WASD also made you look in that direction. But overall, I really enjoyed this!

Great visuals, fun gameplay, and incredible audio! Super impressive for the timeframe,. Only complaints are the keyboard controls are quite rough, and the lack of tutorial. Other than that, great game!

Developer

Thanks, much appreciated!

Regarding the keyboard controls, I'd be interested in hearing more. Did the player feel like they didn't respond to movement? Or the character walked too slowly? Or the arrow keys didn't work well for changing look direction?

It's mainly just the look direction thing. It's probably just personal preference, but I feel like it should be reversed. The character also feels a little slippery. But other than that it's all good! Even with these complaints, I honestly think your game is the best in the jam, so don't stress too much!

Cool. All makes sense :)
