Nice game, I've finished it and IMO the sniper rifle is a bit too OP, also the enemy AI could be more challenging though. I think overall it's a decent fps game, maybe more hints could be helpful, like how to advance to the next level, because I died multiple times before entering the green ring, or I died randomly(?) and I still don't know why, suppose to be a time limit or something? Maybe an indicator how much time left would be nice to have.

Hey thanks for giving this a try! You may have died right as you entered the ring (some polish is needed here). The sniper is indeed way over powered. The enemies can have them too and kill you from across the map which is a little busted on their end too. There should be a setting to increase the enemy difficulty, but there was not a lot of testing around it.
You should only have to step in the ring to get to the next level. We didn't implement any time limits, you were probably just killed from far away. We did consider requiring standing in the circle for a certain amount of time to beat the level, but focused our efforts on other parts.
What platform did you use? So far I can only confirm that Windows works well.
Thank you for trying it out, I really appreciate it. :)
Okay great! So it works well on at least 3 different Windows boxes. :)
The original vision was to have the sniper on the building which disappeared, and another deeper into the map, but we got a bit crunched for time and couldn't really put more effort into the gun pickups. We were always running for that sniper on the dock when testing too! 😅 Another few days, and we would have replaced that with the shotgun probably. We'd also have had more enemies if I hadn't messed up the collision shapes.
