I think the core idea of this dungeon crawler is pretty good and with a bit more time with enemies and polishing movement and shooting, it could be a hit!
Thank you so much!!
Good submission, I had fun! keeping all the enemies in one big group while running around the room created a fun visual for me and made me think about my moves haha
thank you so much for playing and commenting!
Interesting take on the theme. Needs some more work, but great work for a short jam.
Appreciate it. I think I learned a good lesson about where time is best spent during jams on this one.
Cool concept! I like the idea of the changing rooms! Movement was a tad slow for my liking. Good work!
Thank you! I for sure should've spent more time tuning. Lesson learned for the next one!
It's a little jank, but I love the concept!
The J in Jam stands for jank ;)
Appreciate it!
Cool take on the theme. The gameplay felt a little slow though, every action takes quite a while and every room doing the long zoom out animation to show changed paths could have been sped up a bit. Fun overall though! Oh and the bug with the boss is clearly just an intended feature to add to the countdown theme of course, since you have to get there fast on the web build :)
Feel free to rate my game too if you get the chance!
Ha that's a fair point. Yeah the transitions had more going on at first and I didn't end up adjusting the timers. Lessons learned for sure. Thanks a ton!
Really nice game! Your theme interpretation is super creative, instead of counting down time, count down possible paths to boss, and i like that it adds some strategic thinking to gameplay, you need to choose path wisely, some times opening room just to secure them for future (path to shop for example).
Only one major issue for me - standing combat, I think it would be better, and more paced if you add ability to shoot while you moving.
But overall great game well done!
Totally agree with you there. A lot of those decisions were a product of my fragile state and animation management lol. Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback!
The game looks quite polished and does everything it was supposed to do ,though there could be some improvements to the gameplay. It was really cool you pulled it off in 4 days!
Definitely! I probably spent more time than I should have on making it look the way I saw it in my head, and more on mechanics/variety. I appreciate the kind words!
I really loved the style of the art and the animations! I struggled a bit with aiming the gun but I am bad at Aim Gun in general. Well done, especially in 4 days!
Starting to realize I should have put a reticle and mouse aiming 😉. Thank you so much for playing!
Impressive game! I really liked the look of it and the gameplay and shops worked well. I think it could have used more gameplay variety like different enemies and weapons , but I enjoyed it nonetheless!
Thanks a ton! I for sure got way too caught up with things that weren't exactly mechanics/variety and wish I would have. So glad you enjoyed!
The game looks very nice. I defeated the boss and completed the dungeon. I felt the skeletons had the right difficulty and i liked finding the shop.
Thanks for playing!
Really liked this one and even wish there was a bit more to play! I managed to beat the game using the Web build despite the massive flood of enemies from the boss room on my 3rd try! Would love to see more upgrades to buy, perhaps some sort of movement speed and reload speed upgrades to be able to maneuver and shoot quicker. Great stuff!
Thank you so much! Hats off for completing the accidental hard mode!
