I like it, the art is great and the characters are cute! My only complaint is that the gameplay is a little simple. It would be good to have a score counter or make it so you have to hit the grenade a different way depending on the direction it comes from, just to add an extra dimension to the gameplay. But, for 3 hours, its really good!
I love how the grenade flashes when hit. Subtle things like that are really nice.
Yep! It's all about little things you can do to help the player develop a rhythm when timing is important. Even camera stutter/shake can be used for that (in moderation heh).
Good game, but a bit hard - I never won :D got to 3 people at most.. maybe I'm just bad at games though.
Thanks! :) Finding the sweet spot for "Challenging but not impossible" for games like this is tough.
Your game looks awesome! Love the camera work as well :D
Lol thanks; I really wanted to do more with the camera, but I didn't have time to wrangle a whole Cinemachine rig, so I just pointed it around with weighted influence toward the Player (20%) and Grenade (80%) - looked decent, but ran out of time.
I also really wanted to have the characters re-shuffle after each death (didn't have time for explosion either - booo heh)
WOW ! That's so great, I don't know how you managed to do it under 3hours, gg man !
Thanks :) Teamwork makes the dream work! Ketrina is an awesome artist and engineer, so we each focus on getting tasks done before the deadline!
