Fun pixel art game šŸ˜Š

GAMEPLAY
Fun game with nice old-school pixel graphics featuring punch and shoot mechanics. The main character looked cool, though maybe a bit too large for the screen, taking up a lot of space. Because of this, I couldnā€™t always see if I was running into villagers. Tip: when walking in a certain direction, you could make the camera look slightly ahead. Searching for "camera offset" or "camera look ahead" on Google might lead you to helpful code for this. It was fun to play, even though there wasnā€™t a clear end goal. Shooting and punching villagers was enjoyable on its own.

VISUALS
The game had nice pixel art, and the main character design was cool šŸ˜Š

AUDIO
The eerie background sound added to the atmosphere.

THEME
The theme "You Are the Monster" was definitely incorporated with this main character.

All in all, a nice jam game. Keep up the good work! šŸ’Ŗ

The game is very enjoyable, I really loved its aesthetic. Personally, Iā€™m a fan of things that evoke an older style, and this game does that wonderfully through its graphics

I didnā€™t quite understand the objective of the game. I believe itā€™s just to kill the people, right? I tried to collect the green coins, but I realized they werenā€™t the objective when I took damage and recovered health after picking them up (or was that a bonus for completing a goal?)

I encountered a few minor collision issues, like enemies entering the houses where I couldnā€™t attack, and I didnā€™t quite get how the right click attack works, although I assume itā€™s just aiming and shooting (for some reason, it never seemed to go in the right direction). But I understand that time is short, and these problems can happen.

The atmosphere turned out really well, congratulations on the project, and good luck in the jam!

Thanks, I really appreciate the time and feedback :D  So glad you enjoyed it - yeah I was pleased how Frankie came out, took me half of the time to get him done lol so some of the mechanics are a bit...off for sure haha.  


Yeah so right click fires the green balls, and the reticle is to aim it. I should have made that a left click I think just cos I'd made the animation and decided his left click should punch, but I think that needs a rethink!

Yep the pills are just a health boost, the original idea was kill all the villagers and pick up coins, and also health, and eventually rescue the Doc, but fell quite far short from that :D

Thanks so much, really appreciate it :)
