this is so creative! had a lot of fun and played more than i'd like to admit, the hitboxes are kind of weird but great game nonetheless, i hope you work on this more!
Very funny concept, love those little candle guy, and the gameplay is very solid for only 4 days and a solo dev. Great job !!
Had fun with this one, I like the design of the little candle guys a lot. I'd say the hurt boxes are a little unforgiving though, but overall well done!
Really fun to play! Controls really well and has a nice addictive replayability to its loop (I am a lifelong CoD zombies player, so I love this kinda gameplay loop hahaha)
I had fun playing this game! It was kinda hard to get the shots on the candles to register sometimes but it is definitely a cool game with cool art. I also like how the upgrades have a downside, I always like when games force a difficult choice so I was glad to see that here!
i had fun in the game but one of my problems is the hitbox of the enemy was weird
I love love love the concept of playing as a piece of TNT running around and shooting candles to stop from blowing up! I did however have some hitbox issues with larger candles, which felt especially frustrating since it felt like I went through all that effort just for them to not really drop anything of value. It could've been interesting to see more done with the fact you're a piece of TNT, but I overall I still had a lot of fun playing! Great job!
The controls very well done and the style reminds me of Garden Warfare. It was difficult to aim in the browser version with delayed inputs. I like the addition of a selection of the playstyle at the bounty board.
Really interesting design! It’s just a bit laggy when playing in the browser.
The best game I've played in this game jam so far🔥🔥🔥🔥. Congratulations!!
too laggy for playing in browser, if shipped as a desktop version it'll be much better!
When I played my timer wasn't ticking down, there were no enemies, and I fell off the map, but I loved it so that doesn't really matter.
Nevermind, I figured it out
Ahhh this game is so funny and I'm so bad :sobsobsob:
Ummm this might be a silly question but where do you get the upgrades? Is it back at the message board? I probably haven't survived long enough to get any hahahaha
Anyways, W game, this was so fun to play!
This was my score on try 5.
Thank you so much for the feedback :)
Yes, the upgrades are back at the message board. I sadly didn't have enough time to balance everything so it is much more difficult than I was planning!
Thanks for playing :)
So fun! Towards the end there were so many little guys, and it was so funny watching them sprint at full speed at me. I also love our little legs.
i really love the artstyle
This is so creative AND fun to play! Thanks for the game!
Oh I thought I'm pretty cool at this game, but now, when I see other guys, I don't think so hahha
Anyway, it's such a fun! It gives the feeling that I'm succeeding. =)
Bow to me! Great game, absolutely loved it and officially spent the longest time playing this game in this jam!
Wait this is amazing how did you do this hahahaha
Thank you for playing!!
They just lifted me up lol
I guess the candles decided to be helpful that round for some reason. They've never been that nice to me haha
This was a really neat concept! Looks great and plays smooth
This was fun. I love the idea of playing as a stick of dynamite.
