OMG I LOVE DOOM + VAMPIRE SURVIVORS, I CAN SEE THIS GAME WOULD BE COOL IN THE FUTURE.
Thanks for the kind words!
That was actually a pretty fun experience. Kind of like old school Doom. I sort of wish there was harder enemies as you went along, I was able to camp in a corner for the last minute until the boss appeared at the end. The upgrade options shouldn't have popped up in the middle of the screen as that was where I was already clicking. Multiple times I upgraded the gun without looking at the options because I was in mid fight. Very good entry.
Thank you for the feedback!
Was pretty cool too, tho beetween all the accelerated combat you just accidently click on the middle upgrade when level up
The movement felt so smoot and nice. I had lots of fun playing. My first game I ran out of ammo, but the second game I beat with like 4000 ammo left. I really enjoyed it, but I felt like while I was shooting the upgrade menu came up and then I would end up clicking the middle one. I feel like if you added a confirm button then you couldn't accidently buy upgrades. I still had a wonderful time, nice job!
Thanks for the suggestion, glad you enjoyed!
The movement and upgrades were really good, loved the old doom-like art too! Only problem I had was that I ran out of ammo and had to restart :p
I enjoyed playing this game, even if I couldn't give a high rating in the Theme Interpretation category.
I liked the art doom art style, the sound FX fits well. It has to be fixed the powerup menu: since you're always shooting, you basically always choose the center powerup being the default cursor position. Requiring a confirmation could fix it
Great game! I love the art style. It's very doom WAD Esque. One of my favorites from this jam. One small gripe: I wish that when the select upgrade popup appears, it would make you confirm your choice before it goes away. One second you're shooting robots, and the next you accidentally picked reload speed again. That and the wall textures are a tad bland.
I'll keep an eye out for any updates in the future!
Yeah that’s true. I was thinking in putting a brief pause before the upgrades show up to give some time to the player to process but didn’t have the time. Thanks!
Maybe you could post it in an update once the jam's over. I have my eyes on your game
also, can you rate my game real quick? I rated yours today
I rated it already lol
XD
Was just about to write this as well, it was really annoying to miss the upgrades you would have wanted
Thats prob the best game i've played for this gamejam so far
I want to do a similar game as well, is REALLY fun to play
The only problem i find is that it doesnt really fit the theme, at least in my eyes
If i was you, i would continue to develop this game, its REALLY fun
The movement is really smoothly
the sound is really good as well and its really balanced
amazing work
Thank you! We are actually discussing in continuing this project, just waiting to see the reception here in the Jam, glad you enjoyed!
