Lovely graphics :) Very well made, too bad its so short, would love to try a longer version
Neat entry! I lost the first time through because I ran out of oregano lol. But once I figured that out I saved up most of my ammo for the last boss. And I think I got pretty lucky, because I just stood center slightly right and the bosses combo could only hit me with 2 bullets. So I just spammed everything I had while standing still.
Great entry! Keep up the game dev, both of you!
Nice to hear you liked our game!
To run out of oregano on the first run is actually what we intended the player to experience :) If we find some time to update the game, we would like to make the enemies more offensive, so that it is a bit more challenging to save the oregano for the boss. At the moment, you can easily walk to the boss almost without shooting once.
Yes, this trick you found is something we would like to correct, as the real pattern to beat the boss is to go hide behind the tree that is on the opposite side of his first movement. If we get some time to update the game, we would make the direction random (for now the boss always goes to the left), with an tiny animation (a telegraph?) that indicates which direction the boss will go.
Thanks! We are definitely up for another game jam, it was a lot of fun !
Nice game. I like the graphics a lot :D
thank you ! it was the first time I used the Godot's animation system, it was pretty neat!
A fun concept. Controls were solid, and the difficulty was manageable. The audio could use some work: I'd love some music, and the sfx leave a little to be desired. Some things have no sfx, and the things that do have sounds that are a bit jarring: too high-pitched and loud. The biggest issue is that when there are lots of shots being fired, the soundscape can get painfully chaotic.
haha yes :) the sound effects are not very amazing, and we did not have time to include all the sounds we recorded. We did them ourselves using our mouth and piece of furniture! We definitely needed a music composer too, as none of us can put two notes together!
Not sure how to solve the chaotic soundscape though as it corresponds to the amount of bullets being fired...
Nice job, fun to play.
Funny backstory for the game as well :D
Was it just you working or were you part of a team?
I made it with my partner, who never programmed a game before, so I was really proud we made it to having playable game :)
I was pretty confused as to what I was doing and how to stop the bugs from killing me. The controls were pretty solid though.
For the bugs, you can use Spacebar to shoot or simply avoid them. For the boss, there is a little trick to find based on his pattern :)
This could be the Super Contra of Hazelnuts. This game was really fun - in general I love this type of game. Great work!
It's hard but fun and funny, the giant bug was ridiculous (in a good way).
Ok, so turns out that the original submission was broken because of Git and Godot disagreeing on a upper/lower case for my scene Larva.tscn, which messed up the export. It was less visible in the HTML as the game was simply running without the scenes that crashed!
So now it is resolved, the game is now playable here as it was on our machine.
you didnt make the zip a web project... so i need to download it and un it on my own server
Sorry, I struggled with installing python to test my HTML build, but now everything should be working fine!
