Audio was good, graphics were basic but fit well. Don't really know how this fits the theme though.

Developer

Yeah the theme didn't fit that well. I tried to make it a bit more obvious that your blood kills the enemies but it is what it is i guess 🤷‍♂️

liked the sound and music in your game.  Good features like jumping under a block let you keep jumping for ever as long as your head hits the block. Weird that if you run off the level you die restart and it sends you to a new area not sure if that was intentional or not.  The score text on the game over screen should probably set to auto size since my score broke the line and had a zero on the line below nothing major.

I did find the enemies spawning right on your head some time annoying but what can you do in a short time frame it is hard to test for stuff and make a game in that time frame I struggle with balancing and bugs my self way more then I want to admit on my game jam games.


All and all good job on your game slow down on the cookies as well lol.

Dude found the game very fun but did not understand where the theme fit in his game, another strong point is sound designer, Loved all effects and the soundtrack

Hello! Well, this game is pretty fun, but there is a problemin which (at least in browser, full-screen mod) you can't see the edges, making some parts difficult to play because you can't see the player. But appart from that is a pretty fun game :)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I noticed this issue and I think the only way to fix it is for me to size down all the UI for the WebGL build. What do you think?

When using Unity, I would set up a desktop app, then set the window to a size that I liked and felt good to play (640x480, for example). After that I would do my web build. Then in itch.io I would set the web window size to what I defined earlier (in this case 640x480). Hope it works for you ;) When using Unity, I would set up a desktop app, then set the window to a size that I liked and felt good to play (640x480, for example). After that I would do my web build.

The game is good, because it has nice controls and nice graphics, but where are the vampires or lethal blood?  

Developer(+1)

When you get shot the enemies within a certain range of you do take damage from your blood. Also, thanks!

The bullets and floaty physics are very nice. I really like the simplistic style of the game and getting enemies to fall into the pit was pretty fun. My highscore was 21450 which doesn't fit in one line at the end of the game just FYI. Also not sure if it's intended, but you can shoot bullets out of the air which is pretty cool. The yellow enemies were a bit OP though and I think they can kill the big red enemies in one shot if you line it up right. The music fit perfectly, but I didn't see how the limitation was being used. Very cool game, but I agree you could use heals.

You beat my highscore. Impossible. haha also thanks for the feedback!

Art style is nice, reminds me of stick fight. Shooting is fun too, but i think to use that your blood is lethal there should be some heals spawning from time to time, so you could use your health like some kind of mana

Developer

Yeah I was messing around with a healing system but I decided to scrap it because it was really buggy. Also when your player takes damage the enemies within a close range of you take damage from your blood. I don't think I really made the blood thing obvious though

Can't open the game on MacOs :/

Developer

okay. i will look into fixing that

Pretty straighforward action, well implemented. I like the simple graphics style, but all the bloom on the white background is hurting my eyes. You should also provide a web export build as it is fairly easy to set up and more people will play your game.

Developer

thanks!
