love the little details of the monster being watched and how they're providing commentary of it being out of control

This is a great little game. Baiting them into killing each other is a really fun mechanic :).

Developer

thanks for playing! :D

Fun little game. I love the play on the theme. One thing is that it's a little hard to reach the left ctrl on my keyboard while using the WASD keys, so I use the right ctrl, but that feels a little awkward. It would be nice if both WASD and the arrow keys controlled your character, and then you could swap between a left handed play style or right handed.

Developer

Thanks! good point, I'll definitely add the arrow keys ;)

Well done! It's really enjoyable and just difficult enough. It's fun to push for a higher k/d as you fight.

Thanks :)

Great work! The art style in this one was very fun and so was the cool gameplay mechanic. Well done! :)

Developer

Dodging bullets to make them shoot each other is a really cool mechanic. Makes for interesting gameplay while you're out of Ctrl.

Thank you! We're so happy you enjoyed the game!

Your game look very good, the game concept is decent, and I really, really like the tutorial, maybe you could have also used the people (in tutorial)  for UI?! But: Add a WebGL build next time, it really changes the player rate of your game.

Thanks! I'm happy you like our little game and I love the idea of using the characters in the foreground as UI. As for the WebGL build, I realised it as soon as I started to rate other projects. We had lots of fun developing our first complete game and we learned a ton! Cheers
