I appreciated that the audio synced up with the gameplay. I was frustrated that dying sent me back to level 1 instead of restarting the current level

i think im evil :(

Interesting concept to have to evade yet stay close, all while sticking to the countdown! Very thematic. Would've loved to see more emphasis on the scoring, some levels you couldn't explode everyone and wasn't sure if I was doing well? Oh well, I'm taking everyone down with me!!!

Submitted

Really fun and cool concept but for some reason it wouldn't lock my mouse to the center which made it very hard to move the camera

Submitted

Pretty fun game.

I have to say though, I REALLY like the title. It's a very good title. A stroke of genius. It's amazing. Really. "La Bomba" is just incredible.

Submitted

Really fun game and concept. cool style too

I love the concept on show here. Gotta love the DnB track. I'd be keen for more.

Submitted

Great concept for the 'Countdown' theme!

Submitted

Pretty cool concept and game , i loved the music so much even tho it was the same one lmao

Submitted

Good job on the main menus art, the concept of the game is good.

Submitted

Cool concept and fun gameplay. Though I would recommend making it more satisfying like maybe more particles or some vfx. Cool game

Having the countdown as a sort of tag game is so well thought out. The game could really benefit from adding some juice but it still has a good vibe as is. I think the score is based on how many firefighters are in the explosion on round's end but I'm not too sure about that, could be a bit more clear

I like your take on the theme, and how you approached the visual and narrative design of melee and ranged units, then being firefighters :) The game design of keeping melee enemies close is creative and the rolling mechanic is appealing to my brain because I have to constantly roll/dash in such videogames, ahah. It was fun!

Submitted

Nice menus and graphics, and a clever concept! It's very game design-y to have a mechanic where you need the enemies to be close, but not too close. Sometimes when you spawn in it's a little difficult to get an idea of where to run to, because the camera is fairly zoomed in. Also, the web version didn't seem to capture my mouse, which meant I could only look around about 180 degrees. That aside, this is a fun little game!

Thank you ! I tried to put the Camera further than it was at the start but perhaps it should be even further. I also had this issue with another person with the Web version so I'll look into that after the jam !

Cute characters!

Developer

Thank you ! I'm glad you enjoyed my little 3D art

I'm going to blow up, and i'm letting everyone know. (Very fun game)

Thank you ! We all need to blow off some steam from time to time ;-)

Fun game but a little one-dimensional. Also really hard to kill all enemies in a level when some of them don't move.

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it still ! I hesitated to make the shooter enemies move but decided it was better to make them static so the player would bring the chasers to them.

Great job for making a 3D game in 4 days, I love the art and character design! Evading the enemy until the timer runs out is a smart idea!

Developer

Thank you so much ! It wasn't easy especially with my not so good level in Blender so I'm glad you enjoyed it !

This game is real fun! The Bomb as MC is so fun to play. Balancing not getting wet and get a lot of points was thrilling. Good job!!

Developer

Thank you so much ! I got the inspiration for the MC's design from Sonic. I really like these types of dual risk/reward mechanics in games so I'm glad you enjoyed them.

Developer

Thank you very much !
