How does your game fit the theme?
The game is an alternative reality where instead of aliens invading earth, the humans are invading the alien planet, plus in the game there is a POWER up that can stop TIME

Nice little shooter game ๐!
GAMEPLAY
The idea that humans invade alien world is a nice twist. I was searching for humans at the first part of the game. The environment seemed empty, but after a while there were enough humans to kill ๐. I think some colliders and hit boxes were not completely correct. Humans got stuck in walls etc. The weapon also turned upside down. But did have fun playing and shooting and that is the most important. Maybe earlier weapon upgrades would be nice..
GRAPHICS/ART
I always really appreciate it when someone makes all the graphics themselves๐. Maybe not AAA quality but it all fitted together in this game and that is ok. Some extra hit effects or shoot effects would be a nice bonus. Some particle effects.
AUDIO
Really fine audio track for this game. Got a nice beat to it. Made you want to shoot more and more.
THEME
The alternate universe that humans invade alien world is a nice one. Time stop is a check for the time is power but could have been more I think. But you checked both mechanics.
Fun well worked out little shooter. Keep up this good work๐ช!
Thanks : D
Nice 2d shotter, nice idea and invasion where the humans are the aliens XD really funny man, maybe more variety with the humans attacks, but i dont know construct much so i cant say much in development x3
Really nice entry x3
thank you really much! ๐ข
Surprised to see that I've already left a comment here as I don't remember rating the game. There's a few things I'd like to mention regarding the game.
I did not notice the humans until I've replayed the game, so I was wrong about the game being too simple; I also noticed the description of the entities in game which is pretty cool.
The screen SFX a is also great for creating atmosphere.
Generally the game is definitely a lot more dynamic than I remembered and a lot more fun.
The music is still really nice though.
thank you really much, i'm glad you played the gane how it was meant to be! ๐
The game might be too simple; the music is really nice; the art may be more refined I feel like.
The rest is pretty decent.
Simple yet fun game with charming graphics. Great project!
Small suggestion: consider flipping the gun sprite when it points to the left to avoid it appearing upside down. As others have mentioned too, there are also some strange collision issues present which sometimes cause glitches with the enemies.
Other than that, everything worked well!
thank you really much!
Fun game. Music was cool, would be nice to get some feedback when taking damage. Also would be nice to give some audio for shooting and when you hit an enemy. After a while of running around shooting humans and the dude throwing burgers it was hard to tell if there was anything more to it or just going for a high score. Anyway, well done!
thanks for the feedback and yes, it's just for an high score, well unless you reach a million points, then there is the super secret ending ๐คจ
The biggest highlight of the game was the music, it was awesome! the game itself wasnt really challenging becasue the humans were all either standing in olace, or stuck inside walls and trees. I did enjoy the idea of humans imvading instead of aliens:)
thank you! if the humans stand in one place not not moving may be a problem of device, are you playing on mac?
Im playing on windows
When I played there was a point where a couple humans appeared to be hanging from a sign in a park. I tried to shoot them, but my bullets were blocked by the sign. I wonder if maybe the humans were somehow set to walk through solid objects, since that would explain these incidents.
maybe i forgor to add some colliders :)
If you have to add them in manually, that sounds like something that could happen. It was actually kinda funny seeing the humans on the sign though because it was about two humans high and they were directly on top of each other, so it looked like the top human was hanging from the sign and the bottom one hanging from the first XD
in that case it's a feture๐
Nicely done, there were a few collision areas that I could see I could walk through but the bounding was off so I just couldn't pass through. But otherwise nicely done!
thank you, some areas are volounteerly passable! ๐
Amazing main menu, very simple concept yet fun, the audio is very good as well. But some part of the map there is no collider and humans will glitch through.
thank you for the feedback!
Pros: Loved the trees, the different human enemies, and the work donald's jingle was funny.
Cons: Game sometimes lags, and maybe the humans can have more attack variety?
I especially love the alternate reality of humans invading instead of aliens
also hamburg
I'm really happy you liked my game! I will do even better in my next jam!
Fun game! I had fun wondering around this tiny world! Something you could fix is that ennemies were always stuck in the collisions zones, like if they spawned in there. I made a score of 3000!
thank you really much, i'm glad you had fun!
