I really like the concept of your game. I only think there are too many enemies (or they shoot to often). I do also like the player movement, it's kinda hard to control but it totally fits the look of the player-sprite. Well done *thumbs up*

Very very interesting game play. It's nice to see some innovation in games these days. I really liked how you were just a box of food.

The only thing I wish you had was an good way to exit the game besied alt F4. A nice menu system would be nice. I hope to see continued work on this game. It is a very cool concept to build upon.

Nice work!

I think you have a good idea here, but I think there are some changes to be made to help it out. I think the monsters and humans should have predictable behavior, so that you can know when you need to block for each one. As it is now, you kinda just have to hope and pray that your monster shoots the right way and that the humans shoot the wrong way. There are a plethora of ways to do this, but it's really up to you.

It may also be interesting to add different human and monster types! Although that may have been too ambitious for you in this short time span.

Another minor suggestion is when you hold forward into a wall you can't go left or right, an easy fix I presume.

Overall, I liked the idea behind this game, but I feel like the execution is sloppy and needs some work. I also like the choice of music, and the artwork is cute.

Hi Copyoflegos and thank you for your detailed feedback!

I am glad that you enjoy the idea. As you said, the time span was very short and there are a lot of improvments

- shoot control : You can have indirect control of the direction of the monsters shooting ; there are shooting in the same direction that they are walking. (and they are walking in direction of the food box) =>I admit that the behaviour is a bit akward :-/ and that it makes the maniability hard .

- "human and monster types" ->definitively a good idea to add nex types ! And other dungeons room, too !

- "when you hold forward into a wall you can't go left or right" -> yes. I agree it should be an easy fix !

If you like music and art, you can find the artists in the credits/game over title and direct links here :

I would love to find some time to improve that ! Maybe this week-end ! ;D
