I made sure up/down never happened together but all other moves are fair game :> Thanks for playing!
Yeah, there is a reason I never used stratagems in Heckdivers :P and I stink at piano
Incredible for 4.5 hours but i feel the game was made first then swarm feature was added but out side of the game jam 10/10. Awesome job!
I agree the implementation of the theme turned out pretty surface level, I was originally planning on a more direct control of the infected in a top down view of the crowd of dancers who would move up/down/left/right to the DJ’s callout and if you missed a note some of the infected wouldn’t move and would be discovered. However it ended up taking the 3 hours to figure out how to make the rhythm feel decent so that got scraped. Glad you liked it though!
Great work for a 4.5 hour project! Looks and feels polished too.
Thanks! Once I broke 3 hours I decided I might as well try to polish it a little lol
not good at these types of games, but it was well done!
Thank you :)
This game is so fun man! hard competition this week.
I love rythm-games. Big fan of those necrodancer-games. I'm very thankful for the colored hints which arrows to press exactly. This is a kinda uníque mechanic as far as I know.
Good music, good vibe. Well done. Great work, especially for the short dev-time
Thanks! Just wish I could more often get below 3 hours when I do these jams
Yeah. Good thing planning doesn't count as time.. I saw the voting for the theme, started planning and hoped the best.. xD
When you only have to write anything down & don't encounter problems it goes pretty fast. And having a team helps too of course.
