The game feels incredibly polished. The VFX and trail effects, in particular, are perfect. They add a whole new layer of enjoyment to the gameplay. The only real issue is with the UI. If you're planning to take this further, the UI will need some improvement. For example, in the ability selection panel, it would be much better if all three ability descriptions were displayed side by side so we could just click to select. Reading them one by one and having to go back and forth can be a bit frustrating. Other than that, the 'game feel' is executed perfectly. The player gets that sense of satisfaction throughout. Great job! This game definitely has the potential to win!

Hey ! Thanks a lot for the feedback :) 

Yeah i'm really bad at doing UX/UI (Or any form of art besides VFX), this version is far from final indeed ! I'll ask someone more talented to do it (Shouldn't be hard to find :D). This UI will definitely change in the future :)

Really fun & polished. Awesome take on the theme.

I especially liked the music. Really makes you feel like a cat on meth. 

Great job!

Developer

Thanks a lot ! Even after all these hours this music makes me laugh.

What a game! This is one of the few games I played in this jam that I would say feels like it's good all around. It's really polished, really fun to play, and the art is absolutely amazing. You have done a very good job!

Great game, it fits the theme perfectly. Is the theme sound like kittens meowing? hehe

By the way, how creative to include the kittens :3

Good luck at the jam!

Developer

Yes it's exactly that for the music :)

Thanks for the kind words, glad you had fun playing !

Super fun and engaging!! So much juice and effects, im impressed you've managed to do all of this in 2 weeks! Solid upgrade system thats really rewarding. Runs super smoothly even with loads of enemies! The leaderboard is a great addition too.

It took a minute to get used to the keyboard controls and im not sure if its just me but the font for the number 1 looks like a 7 but other than that its fantastic! This could be a full game :)

If everything works out, it will be a full game ! The format will change but I have fun plans :D

I'm working on the keyboard controls tomorrow, with a bit of luck i'll have a nice patch to celebrate the end of tha ratings !

I'm also surprised how well the game runs even on WebGL. In endgame there's up to 1000 zombies at once, with up to 100 spawning per second. The whole day spent optimizing everything did wonders :D

Thanks a lot for the kind words :) Hope you will like what comes next :)

I'll be sure to look out for the full game! Can I ask how you optimized it so well? Did you use pooling for the enemies? Or was it just a process of lots of small refactoring that added up while testing? Any tips would be amazing :)

I talk about it a bit in my devlog if you want ! Check Days 8-9 if you don't wanna read everything :)
