Good job with your game.

Nice shooter game. I just don't see how it fits with the jam theme.

I liked the art assets used.

Suggestions for improvement:

- Add more weapon drops. I got stuck with the bow after a while and couldn't use any other weapon.

- Explain what the pickups do. I only figured out one that made arrows hit multiple enemies.

- There seemed to be some performance hiccups afer the game was running for a few minutes with a mob of about 20 enemies on screen. Try running the profiler to check what's going on.  I'm guessing it's the projectiles getting Instantiated/Destroyed triggering the garbage collector.

- Add a goal. Why are we shooting these creatures? What are we trying to achieve as player?

Thanks for the response and the suggestions!

About the goal and the theme:

  • The goal was just survive as long as possible without dying, I was aiming for a more arcade-like gameplay
  • I also don’t see 100% how it fits with the theme. I was having a lot of trouble when coming up with an idea and I decided to pick one that was generated on the live that started the jam and the most interesting one was this one

Hi, I noticed your submission is missing source. Your source is everything someone needs to download your game, open it in the game engine, and hit Play to play the game. Here is an example of the files to include: https://github.com/icepol/DeathIsOnlyTheBeginning

Developer

Weird, I’ve putted it in the page itself the source code. I’ll check this out asap and notify you

Developer

Hi, found the problem and fixed it. Normally when I’m creating an itch page I leav at start the “Disable new downloads and purchases” toggle on until everything is done in the page and this time I forgot to disable that kkkkkk. The page is now updated with the source available
