Entertaining gameplay and great pixleart. Like others said, skipping text would have been nice.

Great idea...SO MUCH TEXT THAT CANNOT BE SKIPPED! Don't get me wrong, fantastic text engine ya got there, but it is too much.

Submitted

The idea is great, and the graphics are also great and well done. I'd like more gameplay and less text, or at least a text skip.

Really cool idea and execution! The aesthetics are nice! I wish there was a little bit more gameplay and less dialogue, but that's my own preference. Nevertheless, this concept has potential so keep working on it! Great entry!

This is a great and entertaining game. The story is interesting and well presented. I'm not very knowledgeable about biology, but I appreciated the jokes (Mendel and the peas). The only major flaw is that I couldn't skip the cutscenes all at once, which ends up taking quite a lot of time.

I thought the art in the game show scene was amazing, and I liked the premise and was excited to play.   But I picked the BO upgrade and died in the first stage and then had to sit thru all the dialogue again, which was like 3 minutes dialogue 20 seconds gameplay, that was kinda brutal!  Overall nice work, and I know it an be frustrating for one little quirk or oversight to spoil people's enjoyment of all the hard work you put in!

Thank you for playing our game. Yeah it's something I didn't even think about but that's what these are for! Making mistakes and learning from them.

The premise and dialogue were really funny and silly. The art was super cute too. But the volume was very loud on my computer and sitting through the dialogue after dying is very punishing :(

Developer

Thanks for playing and the feedback! It's something that I'll keep in mind for next time.

super loud and making me go through those cutscenes again is mean! But the humor is pretty funny and the gameplay is vampire survivors. Cool game!

Developer

I know we are bullies :( haha. Thank you for playing our game!

I see you took the vampire survivors path like i did, now im obligated to review bomb you!     >:(

Jokes aside, the dialogues and sprites were really nice, though it would be good to be able to skip dialogues as someone else already said, also the enemies spawned really fast and made it really hard, but away from that the game was really cool and funny!

Developer

We revel in making people suffer!! Thank you for playing!

Fun game, dialogues made me laugh. Funny references to historical figures. Some audio controls would be helpful, game was way too loud on my setup

Developer

That is definitely something I need to work on! Thank you for playing

The graphics, characters, and theme were great!

I picked the bee swarm as my first weapon and it was pretty weak so I ended up dying. I wanted to play again but it sent me back to the beginning of the unskippable dialogue! Would love to see a way to skip the dialogue and see the gameplay more easily.

Developer

Yeah during testing I was just spamming escape and space to get through it. I shouldve put a way to skip it! Thank you for the feedback <3
