This was legitimately my favorite game I've played in this jam! Super polished, both the shovel and the rifle felt great to use, and the digging mechanic felt great and strategically useful. The game looked and sounded great. Overall, fantastic work! If this game had a lot more levels I would definitely consider buying it.

Thank you so much man!I am very happy that you enjoyed it so much! Feedback is always a great motivator to making games, especially ones like this.
And i am currently working on an expansion based on this game, it's going to have the same gameplay, but the theme isn't going to be the Vietnam War, it's going to be more post-apocalyptic, sci-fi/WW1 inspired.

I look forward to the expansion, Good luck!

Developer

Thank you!

I wished there were more levels, I had a great time playing it.

the digging mechanic is solid, I love it and I wish the game was a little easier because the enemies spot me before I do and shoot first most of the time. Overall, good job.

Thank you! And yeah, the enemy AI was clumsyly done, their reaction times are faster after they see you for the first time, but since the code is very messy their reaction times are kinda weird, i can definitely make them slower in the future.

The idea is excellent, I gave very high marks. But I would like more levels.

Developer

Thank you very much!
I definitely wanted to add more levels, but because of the time constraints i was able to make only one level.
And i am expanding the game, altought with a different theme, so if you want more just keep on the lookout for the next game!

shame it's only one level 

the controls are amazing and the mechanics of the game is so well made.

I liked how you put some real accurate info in the end and an intro in the beginning.

great game man 

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!
Unfortunately one level was the max i could do in one week, since i put a lot of focus on the mechanics and visuals/sounds.
And indeed, I tried to use accurate objective information to ground the theme of the game so people playing could at least understand that the real war was very destructive, and not exactly entertaining as the game can be.

I feel you for the short on time thing I had the same issue with man

what I meant by only one level is that people would really love to play so much more of this game me included, now that you have the mechanics working and so the visual and art adding more levels is a piece of cake for you 

I liked the massage of the game that war isn't entertaining 

Looking forward to say what else you might do

Hello Everyone!
To anyone that is going to download the game, i accidentally deleted the game file from itchio and itchio automatically saved it, so if you are going to play, download the game trough the google drive link in the game's page. I will only be able to reupload it after the ratings are done.
Sorry for the screw up.

Lol XD

Really enjoyed the artwork. The digging mechanic was fantastic and I think there is something there to be expounded upon should you continue working on the game. The thrill of sneaking up on an unsuspecting soldier, digging the ground out from beneath him and bonking him on the head was legendary.

Developer(+1)

Thank you!
Bonking the soldiers in the head was also my favorite part when making the game hehe.
And i am actually expanding the idea of the game, it will have a different setting tought, but the digging and bonking are still going to be there.

Submitted(+1)

AWESOME! More bonk is always a blessing!

Very cool, I like the digging mechanic. Lots of potential for strategy.

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much! People really seem to dig the digging mechanic.

(and yes, i had to make the pun)

Really well-made game. Love the shovelling mechanic and how the character starts from the top of the tree. The graphics and gameplay are solid and no real issues with gameplay. Excellent game!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!
Cool that you got the Vietnamese in the trees reference, and I am very glad that you tought it was excellent haha!

The mechanics are honestly impressive. You should work on this and make a whole game for release!

Developer

Thank you! I will definitely be working on it.
