Unironically one of the best looking games I've played yet hahah I absolutely love this aesthetic. Always have. Reminds me of all the old DOS games I used to play as a kid. I think if I could offer any criticism, it would be that a mini map would do this game a ton of favors; especially in the second level, I found myself wandering around looking for the last few targets. I also think this game needs some juice. I would advise adding a bit of screen shake, and making the bullets just a bit chunkier. If you haven't yet, look up "the art of screen shake" on youtube for some really fantastic insight into the kinds of things I'm talking about. Overall, this was a lot of fun. Good job!

Thanks i'm glad you like the aesthetic ^^
Yeah the idea is that the view angle is kinda like being able to go wild on someone's rts map which is totally inspired by Brigador Mechwarrior 3050 and indeed a bit of old Dos games in the mix :p
Yeah the radar is probably what i'll add after a bit of rebalance for the weapons, said rebalance i just haven't pushed yet as i wasn't sure if it broke the jam's rules so i'll push it post jam.
Thanks for the recommended video :)
I've checked out on youtube, i suppose it's the conference one with the guy from Vlambeer, and it was indeed pretty cool and informative, so that's probably some things i'll add with the weapon rebalance to see how they feel XD
Thanks again for playing and sharing your thoughts !
