Garbarrage by thenoviceengineer
In Garbarrage you control a cannon which fires random objects to destroy an invading alien force.
This is the first time I've ever taken part in a game jam and the first time I've put something up for other people to download... so if anything goes horribly wrong, please let me know.
I have tested the download and install on another computer and it all seems OK. There was an odd moment where Chrome would complain about the download being malicious but I can't seem to reproduce this now and it works fine for me (if this happens to anyone else and they know how to fix this I would love to know).
Extract the zip, you can find the setup/install inside the publish folder. Source is included as well.

The music was good, but the sfx were a bit annoying since only one instance of them could be playing at any given time(?). Fridges op, nerf please.
I think the problem with the sfx is that when you're shooting, there's only a sound for when you've shot a tomato/banana (since they are useless)... but it didn't quite sound/work the way I would have liked so it is a bit odd. I just realised now that there is a bug with the explosion sfx as well, so yeah... sfx does need fixing.
Hehe, I think I'd rather buff the enemies (or if I had more time, add more variety of enemies that are stronger/weaker). But yeah, it's really as balanced as I would like, lol.
I like the idea of the alien discovering us through landfills rather than the rest.
PS. Obligatory "It's much better to just zip the game, than to make an installer" comment.
The audio was ok, but not great.
Criticisms aside, this is a good first entry for LD. :D
