Couldn't get the game to work! Sorry! Do consider fixing it up and uploading a browser version post-jam and sharing it with us on the Discord/itch community!

Developer

The version I uploaded before the end of the jam had a critical issue and the game wouldn’t launch.

You can download the working game at this link:

Sorry for the inconvenience!

I couldn’t make it for web because I used shaders that can’t run in web and the game is too heavy for browsers so you can play it only through Windows.

I hope you like it!

I was very wary of downloading a 600Mb exe but I gave it a go this morning. Unfortunately, I got the same error as dangalletti and was not able to play.

I basically never play jam games unless they have a web build but this being a full on FPS got me intrigued. Downloaded and tried to run it but got this error:


I'd love to try it!

My bad I actually remember reading that in we game page but forgot about it as I opened the jam submission page some time later.

I wasn't able to figure out where I was supposed to drag the soldiers to and I never encountered enemy ship. Still, the amount of detail you put into the visual assets and level design were quite noticeable. I really liked the plane that was stuck into a building. Even if nothing moved the way you set the scene made it seem pretty active. Those details plus the historical context made me enjoy the vibe you put together. It's crazy that a sort of low poly style scene with minimal audio is able to evoke such iconic war imagery. Oh and sliding around the ramps was quite fun actually!

thanks for playing my game! the player was supposed to drag the injured or dead soldiers near the german tank to resce them or return their bodies home, I'm glad you liked the vibes of the game
