I like the idea as well as the SFX ! The only problem to me might just have been that a desert is not so related to spring, but really chill game still!
Nice job, it seems to work pretty well! I got over 1000 points and then I tried to see if you could hide from the beetles too. No luck :P
I would have preferred less lag on the "un-hide" animation, I found the timing to be VERY tight to be able to shoot the beetles 4 times. Either 1 less shot or less lag on the un-hide animation would have cleaned this up in terms of feel. It would make it easier tho, so you'd have to find a way to increase the challenge.
Overall, great job!
Cool idea for a “runner”. Very nice graphics, especially the cactus animations. I think you should lower the beetle’s life, often you have very little time to react when it appears to shoot enough needle and kill it.
thnx 4 trying our game! :)
Simple, but very fun and addicting game! I like that it takes a bit to get into the rhythm of it and develop the optimal survival strategy. Also, super cute premise of an auto runner where you stand still lol. Great stuff!
thanks! it would have been weird to have a running plant lol
mf camels. Nice graphics. I appreciate the retro vibe you went for as well with the sound. Literally all you have to do to make this a perfect high score game is increase the base shooting speed a bit, and make it so both shooting and the enemies speed up gradually as score increases. Though they may already do that in the base game, I'm not sure as I haven't been able to get my score above a couple thousand.
thank u, glad u like the camels :)
Thank you, yes, ideally difficulty would increase over time but time was not on our side, will take it into account. Glad you enjoyed it!
Cool little game! The cactus/desert theme is nice and different. That bug is quite difficult to kill though!
Thank you! :)
Great take on making a runner game with a plant! I found the shoot mechanic for the bugs to be a bit slow and difficult. If you didn't shoot right away the bug was pretty much destined to win. That's probably an easy fix, though. You did an excellent job with the art and sound effects. Nice work!
Thanks!
