Hmm, I'm starting to think this hitler fella might not be a very nice guy.

The colour->damage mechanic was really cool and unique, it could be hard to use effectively with the speed you needed to shoot but I really liked that.

Great portrait art and everything was visually clear, killing nazis is a video game classic, can't go wrong with that.

Fun entry, good job!

Wow, I don't even know where to begin. The art (as it should be for this) is excellent! The pixel art Bob Ross and Hitler are so perfect. And the idea to use colors is just so fun. This was one of the more joyous games I have played. And Bob Ross vs Hitler is something I never would have thought would make sense anywhere but you have somehow done it!

Cinema. The setting and premise are just absurd lol, this is why AI will never replace humanity
I do have to say, the game makes me think I can use a colour palette for different attacks but I tried every control and couldn't so I'm guessing it's not a mechanic. If you were planning to update this, I think it would be really fitting if the shotgun fired actual paint and you can change what colour you use so you can essentially paint the ground and make art while killing nazis. But yeah I quite liked this goofy idea you somehow came up with.

Glad you liked it. You have to use W and S to adjust the bulge of the spectrum. How much damage happens to an enemy depends on how wide that color is in the spectrum. Eg if the bulge is on yellow, yellow enemies will be hit very hard but blue ones will be barely hurt.

I did consider painting the ground but that might’ve made enemy colors hard to identify and interfered with the gameplay. That’s why the bg is dark’ish and enemies are brightly colored.

Clumsy103Submitted65 days ago(+1)

Ah that makes way more sense. I just wish the controls were displayed in game. Knowing this makes the game a whole lot more fun and there's a lot more depth than I was expecting. Also I like the music and nod to doom at the top right lol.

plushybuttonDeveloper65 days ago

They do display in level 1. Is there a bug that made it not display for you?

Clumsy103Submitted65 days ago(+1)

You're right, it's not a bug it's just me not noticing it lol

THE MENU HAD ME DYING LAUGHING LMAO I LOVE THIS. the art is good! i love the sound effects lmao and i love that you actually added a story. the concept was just gold, i actually wonder how you even thought of this??? its so creative

for criticism, i did struggle on the last wave a lot but i think i had a bit of a skill issue potentially, i think the music could've been a bit more tense. generally a really good game and best one ive played sofar

The color sliding changing damage is very creative and fun to do, the game is pretty hard but it has juice and overall I was pleasantly surprised with how creative it is!

DeadReferenceSubmitted66 days ago(+1)

Nah, this one is crazy hahaha. I loved the idea of the colors and was laughing my ass of reading the intro, the only problem is that wave 3 is already impossible to me, don't know if its intentional. But overall great game, liked it!

Abduct 'em All!

plushybuttonDeveloper66 days ago

Thrilled to hear you liked it! Yeah the wave 3 is supposed to be hard because it’s the last one. You have to get some good upgrades or use the color mechanic really efficiently to survive that.
