I ran out of bullets, ran away, stepped into a corner, and the game softlocked itself. Just, like, it stopped accepting inputs and the monsters chasing me stopped attacking.
The mechanics are there, but the monsters you encounter are quite tanky for having only eight bullets. I did not see a way to reload the gun, which seemed odd to me. Considering the monsters block the space they stand on, it's rather difficult to dodge around them, which I can only assume the game was trying to encourage.
The controls worked well, despite firing being a two-button thing. Makes it hard to accidentally fire a shot you didn't mean to. The strafing is a nice touch, too.
I must admit the monsters are very friend-shaped, though. Shame they're too angry or hungry to let you vibe.
