This was a blast! I'm very impressed with everything you put together here. The gameplay is smooth, simplified but fun. The art style, retro textures and amazing sound effects really worked well together. It was super fun to play, I felt like a badass, I laughed a lot. THIS LOOKS IMPORTANT. Amazing.
Great job!
thanks :)

I finally managed to run it on my Steam Deck with Proton compatibility layer and I am glad I did! It’s easily my top 3 submission for this jam. I loved the little sayings given by the hero - nice touch. It felt very immersive dealing with those gangsters. The whole experience was very coherent. My only issue that it was a bit too easy as I was able gain 200+ HP and safely snipe down most of the baddies using Tommy gun from far away before they were able to shoot back. Cheers!
thank you so much

Really loved this one! Classic raycast rendered games are some of my favorites and this one seems to know the formula well. Level 3 by far was the best especially with the music choice. Some options to adjust sensitivity would be nice but other than that, well done!
thanks im glad you enjoyed it, i will add the sensitivity setting after the jam thanks

" Hmmm Interesting! This looks important! "
Genuinely really loved it. Voice lines got a laugh out of me everytime, felt like a good recreation of a doom-like.
Nice work! Enjoyed myself playing it!
thanks so much i had so much fun making it :D

Really like the use of the theme and how the game subtly teaches you, such as by making each enemy drop ammo for the weapon most useful for beating them. In love with the bitcrushed music and voices
thanks i tried my best to make the levels ramp up in difficulty and this was the first time i used bitcrushed audio for anything and i think i might of went a little overboard with it thanks so much for playing :D

This game goes so hard hahaha probably the most fun game so far! I never played doom, but it felt like goldeneye and it's fantastic :) The voice acting was hilarious and I loved how you would pick up the folder with your right hand which was also clearly holding the gun. Very naked gun :) Awesome job!
thanks i got a lot of inspiration for level 2 from golden eye I'm glad you liked it :)

amazing job! had a blast playing through this, i felt the difficulty progression was spot on and finding all the secrets had me replaying the levels (lvl 2 felt like a maze to search)
some notes:
i loved the moment when i fell into the bar and was surrounded, i verbally yelped once they started shooting me haha, also the voice acting was amazing. you really nailed the aesthetic! great work!
thanks so much for the feedback i like the camera idea with ramps also i was planning to make it so that the enemies have cooldowns but ran low on time and just had to finish the level design, im so glad you liked finding the secrets my main inspiration was the 1994 DOOM and i wanted to make it feel like one of the "doom clones" that came out at that time, thanks so much for the feed back :)

I loved this so much. The graphics, the controls and the quality of the audio all reminded me of DOOM. Interesting take on the theme, too! I struggled a little bit with navigation at some point, but that's just me having zero sense of orientation ahaha
Thank you for this game
thanks so much i had Doom on the brain when this jam started, at some point i will update the game to add more maps, wepons, and enemies, thanks so much for playing i loved the atmosphere in your game

my favorite game so far. difficulty was on point and the voice acting was incredible fun to listen to.
thanks so much, if i had more time i was going to add one more enemy map and weapon but i didn't have any time left, do you think it was i bit to difficult?

HOW MUCH AMMO CAPACITY DO THE BAD GUYS' TOMMY GUNS HAVE
Those docks were 20 minutes painnnn but I did it
Good game, the voice acting especially delighted me, and the graphics and controls definitely nailed down the old game feeling
I haven't really played any boomer shooters but man it's brutal. Getting dropped into a set of four guys surrounding you, one of whom has a gat that just nonstop melts your health, it's rough. I actually started opting for NOT taking the secret passage on the start of the docks just because I'd still have to face a crowd and it's better to have the extra health
Tommy guys feel kind of unfair since they NEVER let up, so you can't play peekaboo like you can with the shotgun guy, I think maybe it'd feel more fair if they fired in bursts
Also think the gate buttons needed some feedback noise, I wasn't sure sometimes if they actually opened anything when I'm rushing through a level
But overall it was fun :D
thanks so much for playing :D i agree with the bursts fire idea and i tryed to add it but im not the best with codeing and it as getting really coplecated but in the futer i will fix that also i intended for there to be a rocket enemy but i ran out of time also my game is kindof like a boomer shooter but i think it came out more like a 3d versoin of hotline miami, im so glad you had fun also i did all the voice acting myself (my goofy impression of a 1920s ditective) thanks for playing :)
