Nice take on the theme. I didn't get how the rifle cooldown works. Seems like there's a timer but unclear when it has been reloaded?

Hello, thanks for the comment. There's an audio alert for its reload being finished - 4 "ticks" quickly play. Two minor quirks are that the rifle begins the level as loaded so you don't hear them in the beginning, and since your friend is the one reloading, the timer doesn't start until you put the rifle down.
I can see the audio cue not being very clear, as there are many other sounds playing or people's settings may be low. Would you have any suggestions for improving that feedback on a post-jam update?
Maybe a visual cue could help. Looks like you're going for minimal UI which I like and I think it enhances the experience. That said maybe the crosshair could turn into a loading bar when you have the rifle selected and it's still reloading, or changes color to red when it's not ready, or a combination of the two?
