Great concept. Loads of potential. Needs some rad sfx and tunes to go along with it though. Great job!
Cool art style and mechanic! Great idea, well done :))
Love the art style. It took me some time to figure out how to play, but when I did I enjoyed combining the different kinds of attacks. Well done :)
Thanks, glad you like it :)
Very interesting concept! I've enjoyed very much how the WASD was used to move the rows and columns. At some point I've started to ignore completely the mechanic and went straight up clicking the enemies, I think the punishment for missing things should be more dangerous, because I've went very far without doing the mechanic at all (wave 25).
In any case, the idea is great and art is incredible, congratulations!
Wow, I never managed to reach that far.
Thank you for the feedback and glad you enjoyed the game
Interesting concept, I like the art style but I did find myself just clicking on enemies until I could shoot them
Thanks, glad you like it
TBH, I am aware that there will be player with that kind of behavior. But that's better than getting a lot of dud and never manage to understand the mechanics. So what I just need to do is adjust the difficulty so that at higher waves, player will learn not to spam shoot :)
I like the visual. It a good looking game. Some sound effects would be nice.
I thought the combination with the skull was a dud. However, I also had skull shots, which worked and shots without the skull which didn't work...
Thanks, glad you like it :)
I agree, I wish I could add any audio, but I didn't had enough time and energy left to add that >.<
Yeah, I really need to clarify that dud shot
I really liked the art style, and I think the slot machine mechanic matches the theme well.
Thank you for playing. Glad you like it :)
Hey the jackpot stuff is really cool and fits the theme really nicely, while still giving a bit of control. The shooting part is a bit less amazing, but all in all I like it and its just a good entry! I think there should be a bit visual feedback for aiming, since it wasn't clear that my mouse had to be on an enemy for me to be able to shoot. But again, that jackpot thing is just a fun little thing, goodjob.
Thanks, glad you like it :)
I agree, I need to work more on the visual and audio effect so the game will be more satisfying
Nice concept. Definitely fun when the panic sets in and you're trying to find the right combination of effects as the enemies get closer.
I think there could be more clarity about what the different effects do. Sometimes I seemed to get a dud even without a skull selected, and sometimes I had a skull selected, but the gun worked fine. Not sure what the difference was.
Thank you, glad you like it.
You got dud when both in the column and row there are :
1. two or more skull.
2. nothing match
For example in the highlighted row, you got Explosive-Skull-Skull. But in the highlighted column, you got Chain-Chain-Slow. Your bullet will produce Chain Lv1 effect. But if the highlighted column you got Chain-Skull-Skull or Chain-Explosive-Slow, your bullet will produce a dud.
I am aware that I need to clarify that and gives the effect of each slot, not just the skull. I just ran out of time to do that. I will focus more on this and the presentation in the next update
