Hotline Miami 4 :D

I really enjoy your game, great "tactics" system!

Hey!

Nice game overall. I loved wandering around shooting everywhere. I really like the story implementation in a game like that!

Good job!

The amount of work to make this in a month must have been incredible! Good story and mood, if I can complain about something would be that the art could have been more consistent. Good job, and it's always nice to see more Godot games here.

Bit a random mix of artstyles and im not a fan of story games. But very interesting

You have a very elaborate city. +rep

Well done on the narrative and the feeling of the game. 

Maybe the screen size could have been a bit bigger as I wasn't sure whether I was shooting at cops or mobsters. Oh and when you run in the same direction as you are shooting, you get hit by your own bullets ;P


Developer

Thanks for playing. Great bugfinding!

Camera has a zoom option, but maybe it wasn't obvious.

I love effort you guys put on making sure the world feel alive; running traffic, cops patrolling and mob reinforcement etc.  However,  this stuffs put heavy toll on the game engine so I guess next step is to optimize the game. 

Developer

Yeah. Definitely. The tip-able fruit carts and ejected shell casings don't help much either.

As other have said the web build could be optimized. Still, the game is enjoyable and I really liked the fantastic job you have to with the cutscenes at the beginning.

Thanks for playing! Great point about the web build. I wish we'd had more time for troubleshooting that. In hindsight we should have pushed the disable shake_and_flash option to the title screen instead of burying it in the user preferences menu.

Tried to help out a dame, solve a whodunit, got hit by a car and shot by a hundred and fifty bad guys. All in a night's work. *contemplative cigarette drag*

(browser build could use a little optimization)

Developer

Yeah, the browser build was our biggest hurdle from what I heard from the coders. Everytime they got it working on one browser, the newest build messed up on another. One step forward two steps back type of deal. :(

Developer (1 edit)

Nice. Thanks for playing! I definitely agree with you about better optimization for browsers. We should have attended to that much earlier in the development process.

really funny atmosphere + interpretation.

Submitted(+1)

Wow, so much content in this game! A lot going on for sure... Unfortunately the browser version runs poorly, but download works better :)

Developer

Thanks for playing it and for taking the time to download it!

Really love the atmosphere of the game, especially the intro cinematics. Even though I didn't expect so much action gameplay given the setup of the story, I still enjoyed the top-down shooter element and it reminded me a lot of classics like Hotline Miami.

Cutscenes and narrative are really good!

Bullets and some weapons seems to be comically big and I think that is not really suitable for noir setting. Also camera zoom can be limited

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for playing. The bullets are my fault. The other devs wanted realistic bullets and I'm all like, MOAR juice! Good point about the camera zoom. I should have noticed that.

like this Hotline Miami vibe!

Submitted(+1)

You all did a great job! love the game play and story to go with it.  Especially loved all the different rooms and the enemy sfx lol

Developer

I wanted so badly for us to keep our voiced placeholder sound effects. Listening to our lead coder make car noises was the funniest thing ever to me.

Submitted(+1)

This game is exceptionally good, I really enjoy it. Even in a limited time, the game provides me with a good story which is fantastic. A little bit upgrade to graphic and sound and this game is gonna be a big hit

Developer

Exceptionally kind of you to say! Thanks

Submitted(+2)

Very interesting game, fits the theme well and had some funny moments. The blend of artsyles was quite unique. It was cool to explore the town. Nice job!

I thought the cinematic scenes had a great artstyle, it would've been cool to see that extended to some of the gameplay. Really ambitious to include multiple endings, I had no idea what was happening but I get the feeling that might've been the point xD. Funny game guys, great job!

Developer

Thanks. I quite liked your entry too!
