One Screen For Screens Shooting Screens At Screens by DA_KID

[raw]
made by DA_KID for LD31 (JAM)
You are a screen. There's screens trying to kill you. (protip: Use your imagination) Kill them and get high scores and then leaderboards and stuff.


Well, it took me switching languages twice, but it's done. A really stupid top down shooter with no new concepts. It is my first game though, so eh. The muzzle flash is supposed to be bigger, the text in between waves is supposed to disappear, and the enemies spawn a bit slow. I'm gonna fix this after the deadline happens and I rest for a bit.

Woaw, that's a fast-paced game! Fun to play, but a bit too hard for me.
Anyway, congrats if it's your first game, it's a really nice entry! (love the screen shakes! ;)). Keep up the great work, and see you next LD!

For a first game and in 72 hours it's pretty good. The screen shakes and moving background feel good and make for a cool effect. The game is a bit too easy at the moment, I could stand in the middle and shoot every enemy that came at me without moving.

I was gonna comment saying it was pretty good, but if this is your first game then it's incredible! It feels fun to play, with the sound effects and the way the screen shakes when you fire - really nice effort! Would be nice if the music had kept playing though :P

This is a really sweet effort for your first game - great job!
I did a very similar design for my first game about a year ago :)


Nice style, responsive controls, good difficulty curve.
One thing I've noticed is that the 'fire' sound seems to be very short and play VERY quickly - this can sound a bit glitchy/noisy on my speakers.

Overall quite impressive for your first game (especially as you mention switching languages twice during the jam? wow) - keep 'em coming!

This is a very polished game. Despite the simple graphics the visuals are still pleasing do the the screen-shakes and what not.
I also liked your interpretation of the theme ;)
fyi, music stops at round 2, and the 'press button to start wave' plus the arrow never dissappear

Pretty nice fast paced top down shooter. Although the screen shaking in my opinion was a bit too much.

Nice games. The feeling is really good thank to all the effects, even if the graphics are simple.
Good job! :D

Nice graphics effects for the shooting, I also had wanted to vibrate the screen on explosions and didn't get it :-)
I found it too easy at first waves just by staying in the center... why no enemies appear from upper corners? i didn't complete enough waves?

the game feels very good. the camera shake is a nice effect but it gets irritating when i get to higher levels and there are so many enemies that i have to keep shooting continuously, in that case the screen keeps shaking which feels weird. other than that, great work !

Everything about the production of the game was excellent but lacked originality sorry:/

WOW! Fast and hard. Love it! :D
But it got easy on the second wave, and boxes only came out from the boxed below left and right.
Also I somehow got my box to shoot endlessly without clicking, and positioned myself to the top middle of the screen when they came, and I was invincible! XD

It left me with a good mood, so you should add back the mood category for voting! :3

Simple but fun! I could've done with a little less screenshake, but the minimalist style works.
