Really good looking game, i liked the art a lot and the polish was really noticable.
Great job man!

btw if you can play the game that I made and give me some feedback I really appreciate it :)

Submitted

Very fun, I love car combat games and really like what you are doing and going for. With some tweaking and a bunch of levels this could be really awesome. I played it tonight on my livestream if you wanted to check it out you can below

Whoa awesome! That's a really nice thing to say! I will be watching the video with zeal haha. Thanks for playing man!

Submitted

Love this, it looks amazing, the controls are smooth. I would have liked a crosshair just to help my aiming, but that's just me.. good job!!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Hmm that's interesting.. thanks for the insight. I'll think about that for next time :)

Submitted

Nice vehicle arena. Kind of reminded me of Wipeout and Destruction Derby. Solid mechanics, graphics and sound. Not sure about the theme here… maybe what glistens are the explosions?

Anyway, good game!

Developer(+1)

Hey thanks for giving it a shot! Yeah I was thinking about shimmery ammunition but I could have done more with the theme, I admit. But thanks for playing anyway!

Submitted

Good game!  It would be a good idea to  use a gamepad.  Good work!

Developer (1 edit)

Hey thanks for playing! Yeah I was having issues that I am only just now getting to the bottom of regarding the gamepad. Maybe I might patch in some controller use in the next couple of days. Thanks for playing!

This is a fun game .I really  like the visuals and neon is a " thing ".The level is awesome 

Developer

Haha thanks a lot! Neon is a thing for sure. Among some of the best things in games actually :) Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Fun game! Controls took a bit to get use to but once I did I enjoyed racing around and the different weapon types

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah the controls take some getting used to but glad you had fun!

Submitted

I sucked at the controls at first but got it going with some practice. Had a really cool combat moment circling another car-- love that kind of thing. Would be nice to see a clearer connection with the theme. Super nice work though. :)

Submitted

I had a lot of fun with your game. took me a while to master the controls and learn how to use shield properly but I finally managed to kill all the 5 enemy cars and win yaaaayy lol.

I personally love neon stuff and the theme definitely passed the vibe check, music was also energetic and I loved it. 

Great game and awesome work.

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot! Really stoked that you had fun and managed to finish the game! That's awesome! And yeah neon is irresistible... thanks for playing!

I got a strong vibe of Vigilante 8 2 for some reasons...

Developer

Thanks for playing! Seeing as I never played Vigilante I should probably give it a try...

Man this was so much fun. eyes are burning from playing. Controls are tricky but once i got the hang of it i pulled off some cool moves. Using the shield( i thinks shield), and then circling around an enemy makes for really cool action kills. You could go on and add like sniper elite effects if you could work out how and when to do them but this is really cool and tons of fun. Awesome job.

Developer

Thanks for giving it a shot! Means a lot that you had fun! Would have been cool to see your epic strats in action :)

Submitted

Wow! I like it! Nice game!

I was a little bit confuse with the controls car but some minuts after this... was good!
Remenber me a little bit the game with cars and balls hahaha

I think, you have a good project here! continue this!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback! You're right, perhaps controls could be made simpler :)

Submitted

Nice game, looks really good.

Tricky to handle imo and I am struggling to see the connection with the brief.

Good job though on making this in 2 weeks!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! I'll keep that in mind for next time!

Submitted

The visuals are great, and i like the battle royal style. 
I felt a bit lost as to where the enemies were, and i found battling them a bit tricky.
But it was fun to explore the space, and try out different weapons :).
Good job, well done.

Developer(+1)

Hey thanks for playing! Hmm perhaps a minimap or smaller area would have been better. Thanks for the comment!

Submitted

This was very cool! Amazing for a 2-week project. I don't know how it relates to the theme though.

Developer

Thanks a lot! I appreciate you playing. Let's just say shiny weapons that are not to your benefit of touching :P

Submitted

The visuals and music are very dark and futuristic, they go together well! I liked racing the car around, but if I have one gripe: the enemies have too much health! I frequently resorted to sitting still and mashing space :D

Great work, I like the multitiered level and the effects are all very "glittery"

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Hey! Glad you got around to trying my game! Thanks a lot, and yes you are right, the enemies are too strong... tweaked it now, hopefully that should play nicer.

Submitted

Great graphics and controls, and good work on the AI. Though found a couple of things: the missile weapon doesn't seem to trigger at short range (maybe intentional), and on a couple of plays I found myself unable to fire or change weapons when using the weapon pickups.

Did win in the end by sticking to the default weapon though! Nice game.

Developer

Hey thanks for the feedback! I'll have to look into that, not sure why that might be. Glad you beat the game though! (I haven't haha)

Submitted(+1)

Well I'm slightly ashamed to admit that I kinda abused the fact the cars only shoot at you when they're at a distance.

Yeah it's funny to see how others play your game. Once I gave the little space shooter I made in Godot (mobile deployment) to my colleague's 9 year old son. He played it for 15 minutes and got a score I'd never even seen before.

Submitted

This was really cool, but I really wanted to whip out my game controller for it.  It didn't work though. I was just too clumsy trying to maneuver with my mechanical keyboard.  But I love, love the look and feel of this game!  

Developer

Hey! Thanks for playing. Yeah GetAxis() caused weird drifting only when I built the game so I was forced to hard code WASD. Definitely needs some attention. Really appreciate the feedback though!

Submitted

"delivering owies" will never not be funny. And while I don't think that humorous description matches the gameplay, I really enjoyed it. I ended up doing donuts around enemies while spamming fires, but died with two left. At one point, it felt like it wasn't a free-for-all, but a one-vs-many. Could be  a little fun to see them shooting at each other. Nice job!

Developer(+1)

Hey thanks for playing! Yeah I should have focused more on the free for all aspect. I wonder how to prevent the player from camping in a corner while they finish each other off. I need to look into this. Thanks man!

Submitted(+1)

Perhaps making them do zero damage to each other would be enough to at least make it look like it's a free for all. Or they become immune to each other under 50% health? 

Developer(+1)

Oh good technique! Definitely something to consider.

Submitted

I ran into an issue where the enemies wouldn't shoot at me more than once. Then they just sort of floated around me.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! I'll have to take a look at that. Thanks for playing!

Submitted (1 edit)

Oh, same thing happened to me.  I thought they were just stunned by my awesome driving.

Like they couldn't lock on to me or something.  In hindsight, it might have just been this. :)

Developer

They are programmed to appreciate style. You probably took them off guard ;)
