It's a very cool space shooter game :)
I loved the variations in weapons and enemies :)

Very nice looking game, if I would criticize it would be more that the theme is only loosely followed. It plays very well. Overall a good game.

The Last RelicThanks for playing! English is not my first language and “Last Stand” is translated for me as “final battle”. We have only one kill of the final boss through all people, who played the game so far. So, the world first kill is also the world only kill. I think, this qualifies as last stand, at least for my understanding of this term.
Nice shmup! I didn't beat the level 3, I think i didn't get how to aim missiles at first :) keep up the good work

Zombie TrapperThank you very much! Well, you can do something like this not in 10, but in 2 or 3 days (I had only one weekend time for this game). GameMaker and raptor are an extremely powerful Duo. I am also a Dev-trainer/teacher. I hold courses about game dev with raptor. See the credits in-game or look here at itch at my game “Towers of Hanoi”
Super fun game! The leader board is a really nice touch! Great job! :D

The Last (Night)StandThis was really, very impressed you made this from scratch and had leader boards. Plays great and very smooth. I played this on my youtube and gave my feedback as I played if you want to see it you can here

Puzzle Block DefenderThank you very much for streaming it! :-) I am a very noise-sensitive person, so my audio always tends to be low volume, because i can not stand loud sounds. In a professional game i’d hire an audio artist, but for a jam, there’s not enough time for this.
undocumented feature: PgUp/PgDn keys increase/decrease volume of the game.
Nice! I love that you implemented a high score board :D Everything came together nicely.

Cloud Bounce!Quite a neat little space shooter game. Gave it a few solid tries not able to get onto high score board though :(

Raw meat (NSFW)True, that’s something different. But same as you try to challenge yourself with something you never did before on a jam (as you wrote, you tried a new genre), I always use jams to experiment with alternative paths, sometimes those experiments brought up new things, which are worth to explore further, sometimes not. this time, I wanted to find “something to do for your second hand”. Just to keep you all away from drinking too much energy drinks while playing… caring about your health! :D
Personally i don't do energy drinks thing (i'm a rare case i guess! >.<), but yeah, I do understand and respect what you've mentioned and it's absolutely fine. Maybe instead of holding it down to shoot you could have sort of a temporary weapon boost that gets on cooldown after use?
Some games do have a normal skill if you tap, and if instead you hold on for a bit longer the key, it activates something different. That kind of thing.
I hope this helps, cheers and thank you for the reply :)
The mainmenu for the game is awesome. also the working leaderboard. loved the visuals and art style you really nailed the visuals. Sweet movement mechanics and shooting is satisfying as well.

The Last GrabGreat job with this one and having an active leaderboard for the game jam is outstanding!

Bot Arena: Game JamA really nice submission with a decent level of polish all round. Good work!

The FallenVery nicely done. The loading and menu screen very nice. I couldnt beat the game or get on the highscore. :( I struggled a little with the mouse not being completely lined up with the movement of the ship, but other than that was fun!
Submitted
The Last ShipA solid entry, nicely done. I would have like to get some power back when changing levels at least.
