The core idea of the game is good, but I think that the heavy lifting associated with the high number of meteorites as soon as the game begin makes it really hard to play, I guess that having something like a few meteorites at the beginning, with more and more falling as the game goes on could make the game more enjoyable. But still, it is a solid entry, and you did a great job in such a short time, so you definitely have done a good job, well done!
thx I‘m 100% with you! I never find time to balance the game in these 3 hour jams, which is a pitty because as few as 15min of playtesting and balancing would make the game so much more fun
I think that we are many in this jam that doesn't had the time to correctly balance, we couldn't really do it too x)
ImadeitthreemintuesandthirtysevensecondsandallIhadtodowaswearoutmyspacebar. All joking aside fun little game. Gets a lot easier when one of your friends dies lol.
yes friends are really a burden lol
A decent entry, the heavy gun is a cool mechanic. Simple but still fun!
thanks, yours is funnier though :)
I really liked how you gave the theme an extra consequence in the gun being heavy as well as big. It definitely fit the theme very well and it is a very interesting idea. I think that right now the gun is a bit too hard to control, which made me just shoot around randomly more than trying to aim at the meteorites (they were pretty small and dificult to hit).
Anyway great job making this in 2.5 hours! I thought is was a really unique and interesting entry!
Thx, I agree its practically impossible to aim :)
btw I love your submission to the jam
Not a big fan of the controls and the shooting but good job for doing a game in under three hours !
Thanks! I tried to get a feel of dragging sonething heavy… maybe the mouse would have been an interesting other option!
Very solid entry! I like the mechanic, and that's definitely a big gun! If I were to add anything, I'd make it so you can shoot your friends so you can't spam shots without repercussions.
Good point they both are in a dangerous position after all lol
Hey @Mallapp, very interesting mechanic, it's so unique in its own way, You nailed it in 2.5 hours, also you managed to put audio in the game, Overall great job :D
Thanks! Tbh the music was just a quick search on opengamearts.com and the sfx were some almost randomly generated effects :)
Never played a game with a mechanic like this. Its not my type of game usually, but I quite enjoyed it. Well done in under 3 hours! :')
Thanks!
