Thanks so much for playing and the great feedback!!! :D

Really great that you found and pointed about different bugs or features that went wrong. I have no idea what can cause some one of them such as the boss not spawning at the 5 minute mark and why the FPS drops when shooting. The shooting might be a problem with the browser version, but the timer for the boss makes no sense. I will have to do some serious debugging after the game jam.

I will go over all your points in detail after the game jam and try to make this in to my first "real" game.

I am going to play and rate your game before the jam ends!

Glad my comment is useful, especially for the bugs! :) You are welcome.

  • For the time, I guess the lag can cause some decoherence between game time and real time, depending on how the game/engine deals with game time; I know through MonoGame that weird things can happen, but I am not entirely sure this is related.
  • The FPS problem seems more straightforward to me: there is so much stuff on screen (especially particle/visual effects, these are greedy!) that the processor has a hard time. X)

Great, good luck! :D (I also have many game jam games to take care of now, but I am caught in a succession of game jams out of creative frenzy. XD)

As you wish; be aware that mine is an extremely short last-minute entry! So, it should not take you much time — contrary to what yours did to me. XD By the way, do not hesitate to help out those entries with few votes (this link is at the top of the regular entries list). This time, I used the Karma ordering (watching out if the creators spammed or not), which is how I found your game. :)

Just one question that is in my (way too) long comment: does something specific happen when you get everything maxed out?

Thanks again for the feedback! :)

If you unlock everything nothing special should happen (it might do in the future :)). The game was crashing every single time when I tried to get that far and I just fixed the bug before I submitted the game and I haven't really tried to get that far with the web version.

You know what? I am such a fussy perfectionist, I kept my run on hold in another tab, at level 76. XD All right, so trying to see for you whether the game still crashes! Nevertheless, be aware that I am at 1 HP, so any blunder on my part would reset the whole thing… :S

Bug: Oh, I notice the timer is now only 02:15! :o So, I guess it gets reset when reaching 1 hour. X)

Two bugs: level 80: ‘Donut of Doom’ suggested again + one of the suggestions is a white square without description (I guess this is caused by my having already too many maxed out abilities).

Level 81: ah, first I am offered only 4 suggestions! (It has been 5 for a long time now.)

Level 82: offered ‘Banana Split’ again. I wonder if all elite powers get re-suggested.

Level 85: oh, the HP upgrade makes a comeback, and (bug?) there are TWO of them at the same time!

Wow, since I did not see the mouse anymore (happened before!) during a boss fight, I stopped moving, and got hit for 2 HP (or two times?)!! So lucky I healed before!! :O XD

Level 87: offered ‘Homing Utensils’ again.

Level 90: only three upgrades, for the first time.

(reaching level 92) By the way, for a lot of time now: sometimes suggested upgrades for abilities that already have all their dots.

Level 93: only 2 upgrades.

Suggestion: make the boss give more experience, if this is not the case (I was the wondering the first times, still unsure).

Level 94: 3 upgrades again! :o

Level 95: only 1 upgrade! I really wonder if I will get to getting 0 upgrades and thus get stuck. XD Oh, but there is the SKIP button… Still, trying to see if something bad happens.

By the way, said upgrade is one more doughnut, but I still have 4 after.

The FPS become so low during level 95, even though I do not actively shoot (I do not need to, except for the bosses XD), that is starts being somewhat troublesome/bothering.

Level 103: only one suggestion, which is the white square! Trying it; I can select it, but maybe without any effect?

Level 107; all right, still no crash, and I still cannot manage to get an empty upgrade list… ._. This is becoming even longer to achieve a level and laggier, so, let us call it quits.

Took me way more time that I would confess!!… :o XD (And I have so much to do! Including many comments to answer; not even yet looked at the comments for my own game!!)

Haha, well done. Did not expect anyone to even try to play as long as you did. I have started to update the game now and see if I can make it in to a real game. I have fixed most of the bugs you have mention (thank you so much for testing the game) and added some features I did not have time to implement before the deadline.


I will continue using your testing to debug and solve the problems.

Thanks again for playing the game! :)
