Very cool shooter! Having a range of weapons and enemies makes the gameplay feel fresh. The visuals are well done, make good use of the colour palette and fit the spooky theme. The sound effects sound nice and give additional impact to the overall game. The music is appropriately unsettling, which ties into the spooky theme very well.

Very solid game 👍👍

Developer

Thank you for the very kind words!!

That was really cool! I didn't think I'd run into an arcade shooter in this genre. Well done. It gets really hectic quite fast, but it's one that is infinitely replayable.

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you find it replayable!

Wow, I did not expect the POV shooter game in this jam! And I think this works very well. I love the blast feeling and concept, spooky monsters out there. Nice work!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words!

I wasn't too convinced by the screenshots, but this is a blast to play. Could very much imagine this on a gameboy, it certainly has an oldschool rail shooter feel to it (sans the movement, obviously). Nicely done!

Thank you! The screenshots aren't the most enticing, is it? Hahaha.

This is so well made! The variety of enemies, guns, and power-ups make this so much fun to play again and again. Excellent work!

This was a a super fun Doom-themed shooter! I had fun seeing each new enemy appear, and it was a fun challenge to cycle through the weapons. The shotgun is the champion.

Developer

Thank you! A lot of effort was put into each guns to make them feel distinctive!

The level of polish in this game is unmatched.   It feels like everything a game boy house of the dead might have aspired to be.

Developer

Thank you so much!! :D

The purest arcade style gold. It's everything that makes me dump quarters into a House of the Dead machine shrunk down to a single screen of fun. Posting my score because I'm not sure if it's a high one, but it was several minutes of cathartic glee. 


Developer

Thank you so much for the kind words! A lot of efforts was put into making the SFXs to recreate that late 90s arcade feel!
