Nice game! I liked the art style and the plot twist at the end, the game is short but cool, my only complaint are the controls, the bodies fall out of your hands way too easily, I bearely walked a centimeter away and it already flies away, I think just removing this mechanic will fix the problem, since right click throwing works just fine.
Overall rally cool game, especially for only 3 days! Would be nice if you'd check out my game too ;)
The art wasn't mine, as I used a free asset pack for most of it. ( https://scut.itch.io/7drl-tileset-2018 , check it out, it's quite cool.)
For the bodies, they were set to face towards the players hand, and move towards it at high speed while in contact with said hand, unless the player right clicked, in which case the speed would stay the same, but the direction would change to that of the gun at the time they were thrown. I tried a few ways of making them less likely to get escape velocity while the player moved, with the most promising idea being to just reduce the players movement speed to one that makes it happen less often, with shift to sprint bringing back the original speed. I could have just replaced it all with a simpler throwing mechanic, but there was something charming about the bodies orbiting the hand rapidly before getting launched away. Making it a bit less sensitive, or finding a way to keep them in hand while moving quickly would have been cool if I'd managed my time a bit better.
Its like playing Ice Hockey!
Only the pucks are bodies. And you bola toss them :D
worked for me, was a bit surprised that it's a shooter. the reload animation was nice to get in timing with the enemys, however I could not fullscreen or scale it, so it was a bit small for me.
I ended up spending the last few hours trying to get it to work in html5 (without success) rather than polishing things up a bit. I'll see if I can manage fullscreen or scaling on my next project though.
Ahh man I can't play it.
not using windows, or some other issue?
i use mac
I'll release a version after the jam ends that works in html5. Took me longer to fix bugs and get it working outside of just exe than it took to make it in the first place.
Here's the html5 version: https://jon11888.itch.io/you-are-a-cultist
