To be honest, that project was more about learning how 3D raycasters work rather than "making a game," and it was created in a relatively short amount of time. A friend of mine mentioned that he couldn’t kill enemies, but I’ve never been able to replicate the issue on any device I tested. My guess is that because the enemies move in a strange pattern and require more than half a magazine to go down (with no hit feedback) it might give the impression that they aren’t taking damage. Also, you can only reload when you’re out of ammo.
Thanks for playing :d

I’ve never played Warcraft, so I’m not sure how similar they are or where there differences is. I was considering cross-platforming it to mobile and adding features like keys, complex levels, and more. However, I set that idea on hold to focus on other projects . Maybe someday, I’ll give it a try.
Thanks for playing!
Well played!!! To be honest, I didn’t expect anyone to play that game jam entry after 4 months (it feels like I made it last week, lol). I really learned a lot back then. For the past 2-3 months, I’ve been working on a hopefully Steam release game, and every day I get closer and closer of having a demo while improving my game dev skills.
I really appreciate you playing my games, even if they’re not yet in the state I’d like them to be. I might re-make it in the future or make it more polish, as it’s not that bad for a browser game!
Thanks for playing <3

The process to make a raycaster is very unique and instersting. The browser fps are in half so keep that in my mind and the game is not optimized at all (currently running with 330 rays), even has some bad code just to make it in done and a bit of a fisheye effect. It requires basic knowledge in geometry so keep that in mind. These are some tutorials-videos I followed and you might find useful (1,2,3). In my opinion it's very worth it and looking to make a better one in the future.
Feedback is always nice, the best one I can give you is to do a lot of play test and think for possible features that would make the game more fun and work around them, experiment is very immportant. Also I understand the frame time is small ( I had the same issue with my game in that jam because I spend a lot of time trying to do the ray casting and understand how it works ) in that case aiming for something small is ideal. In the end of day game jams are for fun and learning by doing.
if I found time, I would probably check the windows version too.
The game looks like an old flash game, so you get extra nostalgia points. You need to add better balancing and extra features to keep the player interested. I usually find successful to add presure for the player, a bit of randomness and increasing game stats.I find the color movement and music very fitting, gotta pull out my notes.
For 5 weeks of game dev you're doing great, keep it up.
Here we go again
First of all the presentation of the game is amazing and the game being in 3d gives it extra points.Also I can see a lot of names in the team so I hope you all had a fun time developing together.
Let's get into the main part. The game had small bugs but I overlooked them due to the small timeframe,the worst one was the waves stop generating in lvl15 which was a bit sad( I wanted to limit test my base /: ) .
The buildings were good in ammount (but 1-2 more for the late game would be nice) and the idea that you need different part to build one was nice.
So the issues arrive in the playability department.Wave games looks easy and simple to make but the reality is they can get repeatedly very very fast. I realised that when I was making my wave game in the last jam I was participating. A quick way to delay this problem is by slowly increasing the diffuclity and making the player more active with interactions. Or the best is to make the game complex to you win the player intrest, take as example Bloons Tower Defense.
Overall a nice entry, the only tip I can give for the future is more playtest.
I made it, after many hours of practicing dodging, patterns and attacking.
You surpassed all my expectations for a game jam. Never imagined I will spend more than an hour in a small jam game.After killing every phase I screamed "THERE IS MOREEEE???". I really had a nice time playing and felt so rewarding after finishing it. Never played a soul game in my life but after your game, I probably will .
I don't have something to suggest as I'm not very familiar with soul games but I would like to see more. Maybe you can add levels with some basic story line and more enemies/player attacks.
Also the grid system was the perfect fit.
Generally an easy 10/10 submission
Thanks for the feedback, I didn't had something in mind till the last moment and the tils being smalls didn't helped at all. I would probably update and add wasd instead.
The fog is just a layer on top of the maze, so you can still use explosives.I don't intend to change it,making a strat around it sounds cool to me.
Well after designing the first maze, I realized how easy is to visualize lines in your mind to solve the mazes. There is where 2d mazes faill, not having an extra axes to hide the dead ends and the whole identity of the map. So the only way to make the maze more harder is to increash the size which is questionable if it's enjoyable for the player. I solve the issue by adding fog, much harder for the brain to map the whole maze and there is a trial and error aspect that makes it intersting.
Hope you had a fun time.
Thanks for playing, damm not even me have reached room 100 yet. About right click i will make it aoe as you said and nerf left click. You're right about spell 1 being a worst version of spell 2 but is also half of the cost. A spell about autofire for x seconds and a cps limit for left click is a very good idea. I'm happy that you had fun playing my game.
Thanks for playing, pygame is a python library that helps you write python code to draw images into the screen, handle events etc. The visual area is not my best part but i'm happy that everything fits together. The idea was to crete a game with high player input that's why the room is small so you have to always moving making it more demanding. Also you're the first one that wrote about the trick with the fireball, I i thought i was the only one who knew about it .
finished it.The concept is nice, assets are nice, i really really liked the sound effect of the dash (if it's your voice that's extra kudos). Every feature i could suggest is in the game. I can only say to change how cooling system works because it's really boring waiting for 3-4 seconds doing nothing, what about colling faster for the first half and then cooling slower so you need to wait long only for the long jumps. ohh and maybe more ways to "sabotage" the player to lose like the way you did with the destroyable floor.
