- Good start to a simple defense type game. This could be really nice if fleshed out such as upgrades, new moves, new locations etc. I hate spiders so I loved killing them >:)

I liked the atmosphere of this game, the art was really cool and blended nicely with the sound design to give me old-school horror game vibes.
I did feel that the character was hard to control. The movement speed and camera rotation were both very fast, which didn’t work too well in a tight space like the one in the game. The idea of mixing tower defense with first-person combat was really interesting, but there’s nothing stopping me from camping near one of the towers and spamming the attack button until I win (which is probably the most effective strategy).
Overall, it was a nice game, and I really liked the horror aesthetic!
Thanks very much! Yeah I would've made a settings page where you could control the sensitivity of the camera but ran out of time :( Same with the camping one of the targets til you win, I was gonna include a switch at the other side of the room were the playing must fix in order to stay alive but again ran out of time haha.
But I greatly appreciate your constructive criticism! Thank you!
It's just the nature of game jams :)
Cool little endless bash em up!
Thank you!
Really fun, and I love the aesthetic! It was a bit hard to move around, as the mouse/key sensitivity was kind of high, but it didn't take long to adjust to.
Loved how after I won a round I got to watch the endless swarm arrive at the freezer. Makes for a good end screen!
Thanks very much! haha >:D
