I loved the intro cutscene! It’s hard to add a story to game jam games so kudos to you for doing so.

The gameplay was pretty fun, but it’s a bit brutal dying in one splotch of blood. I was able to get to Generation 8 and it seems that’s where most get stuck too. The art had a cool style to it, like 90’s computer game graphics. Very cool.

My only critique would be on the text, which looked grainy and pixelated in a bad way. You always want to make sure the text is legible and crispy for UI.

Overall though, fun game!

Developer

Thanks!! Yeah the anti-aliased text bothered me a lot also, i only figured how to disable it after we submited the game so it stayed like this xD

I really like the camera shaking when every shot, the blood mechanic was quite unexpected and creative, the art and overall game is impresively nice and functional for a 3 days thing. I felt like I need more time at the begining to read all the introduction text, maybe something like "press any key to continue" would have been good for it.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, Could have arranged something for the text. The cinematic was exported as a single animation, so it's a place where we saved a bit of time imo, as we knew how to do that but not the dialogue thing hehehe

Dramatic opening we love it!
The music and the opening cinematic are well done.
The generation of the vampire hunter family to indicate level is really smart!
We always got cornered and only lasted 6 generations but we enjoyed it, good work!

Developer

Thanks! It does get hard very quickly. Glad you liked it and thanks for playing!

Nice cohesive art style! Is the difficulty spike only because of increased health on the boss?

Developer

Thanks! The blood spills gets quicker and bigger as generations pass by (Also when you shoot the boss a lot)

I have the feeling that the entire game is a reference to castlevania. XD

I liked it, it's simple and straightforward.

Awesome game. It was cool that you were able to put a story behind some of the element in the game, like how the art changes depending on what generation you died. I enjoyed playing around with dracula, but I can't get past generation 7.

Developer

Thanks!! Yeah it gets hard prety quickly hahaha. Thanks for playing!
