The inventory system is interesting and changes the gameplay choices. I would have personally liked if I could put them anywhere in  the inventory and weren't restricted to adjacent spots. Then it could be more of an organizing game. I appreciated the auto firing when holding click.

pretty neat concept, i like the modular style to making your loadout, i think you should try to make enemies spawn from outside of where the camera is because otherwise you get into situations where an enemy spawns right in front of you and you have no time to dodge and just get hit without recourse... i liked the animations a lot, too. good job

I was caught off guard when the traffic cone lunged towards me at high speeds. Made me laugh!  I'm not sure if there is supposed to be audio but it didn't load for me. Fun game, though wish there was an option to increase reanimated object spawnrate

Thanks!! Yeah, we just got the enemy spawning set up shortly before the deadline, so we didn't have time to tune the spawn rates and damage and stuff before submitting (same with music/sfx) and I agree it should be faster. Glad you had fun though!

i love the tilesets! the intro gave me a chuckle

not sure if this was a bug, but there was no playing as a new character for the 'New Year New Me' wildcard馃

Oh yeah, each time you spawn you're one of three random objects. Should have made it cycle through since it's not unlikely to get the same one twice in a row. Thought that that plus your weapon ending up different each run would be enough to count lol

Fair enough lol! I ended up trying several times to find a new character and never got one I guess I was just super unlucky x

Love the vibe!

The sillyness reminds me of earthbound. You did the projectiles really nice!

I love the way various objects become weapons. The difficulty progression feels good and the player control nicely. It's like a vampire survivors but you control the direction of shots and have to rummage through trash for weapons. Brilliant! Sure, some sounds effects and some music would have been nice but for a jam entry this is good.
