A really solid game! Great art (loved the super low resolution), music fit perfectly, an altogether very tight experience. It's suuuper hard, though, I can't last even a full minute :-)

Developer

Thanks! I'm afraid I didnt have as much time to balance as I had hoped, I think I should have made combat more rewarding for the player cause when I'm playtesting now everyone gives up on attacking.

It was fun, I'm not good in it but it was fun

Good job! it was very fun!!

The game was fun and sweet! The art was great as well, but the player might be hard to spot when surrounded. Besides that it was a little bit hard to notice that yo ucan only kill enemies by getting them ran over by trains.

Good work! Thanks for allowing to change the controls, WASD was more comfortable for me than arrows. Nice job adding a leaderboard, but I was a bit confused on how to submit my score. I hit enter, and it started the next round, but the leaderboard was still showing.

Oh on the leaderboard you are not supposed to hit enter lol, you are supposed to hit the submit button

Awesome game, simple but delightful! The highscore is making me trying my best to challenge it!

Submitted

Very satisfying. I love that you added a leader board. Got 8th. :) The game had some nice tension. I found getting the enemies in the path of the trains to be very satisfying. Nice job.

Submitted

Gee the leader board is such a good idea for replay value. I couldn't quite make the top 10 though!

I had trouble at times see which player I was at times, particularly after a dash. In the end my best strategy was running in circle to avoid the mob. And hopefully get them knocked out by the train, super satisfying!

I did encounter a but that once I played fullscreen no controls worked and I had to reload the website. In the end I just played non-fullscreen.

Developer

Small tip for the leaderboard: hitting the enemies into the train gives you a lot more points.

Also in the past I had the player outlined but I felt it stood out too much, I guess I could’ve kept it.

This concept is great, and the whole aesthetic is so nice and cohesive. I hope you can fix the crash either during (the jam says game-breaking bugs can be patched if you contact the organizers) or after the jam, I'd like to be able to play more :D

Glad you enjoyed! I just updated so you can now play as long as you want <3

I also could not move in the web version (tried firefox and chrome). The art and sound compliment it well. I'll try it again on a download version soon.

It might work on https://pepperboi.com/underground

I like idea of using the train to defeat your foes - it'd be interesting if there were more waves to get them infront of the trains e.g placing traps
I think the music is fun but not sure if it doubles up or what because I found it a bit overwhelming at points
Art style is cool :)
