This game is slanderous against vikings!

(Uhm, using sounds from the internets is technically against the rules.)

Liked the game a lot. Pretty well balanced between having to take some damage to conserve ammo. Nicely done.

I gotta say, those dialogue noises were quite humorous.

Nice little game. I like the graphics. I also like the sound, but since you can't use 3rd party sound on the 48h compo I rated as if no sound.

Pretty funny, although as jolle said you aren't allowed to use sounds (or any content) from the internet. You might want to take a look at the rules for next time.

Interesting idea, but it didn't feel very balanced to me. I think it would've helped to have a specific 'low on ammo' click noise to remind you that you're running. Got potential though!

Amusing. However, as a Mexican Viking I can't help but to feel a little uncomfortable at your characterization :)

A nice little game. Can be challenging at time when trying to get out of a tight spot. Nice work!

I feel that if the difficulty was ramped up a bit as time went on, it'd be a lot more fun. I also feel music could of done wonders, or maybe ways to expand or upgrade your own tower. For what it is though, it's a few minutes of fun, and does well enough on the minimal theme.

Yeahhh! I came 2nd (just below Aesthetic) but I used the name 'dsada' or something because I couldn't be bothered using name xD Fun little game though. Bit boring after a bit! :(v

I raised an eyebrow at the sound effects, but the potato sun made up for it. All hail our starch-based provider of light!

Oh, that's actually pretty cool! deciding when to send out your ammo dude. That's a neat resource-manamgment system you've got there. I also approve of the sound design.

I like the graphics of the game, especially the sun.

First time I played this, I didn't realise that you could reload at all, and I found it absolutely hilarious. Like.. stuff just coming and destroying everything because I have minimal ammo; I thought that was the whole point!

Anyway, I played again once I found out how it works. It's really hard! But, yeah, awesome entry. Love the Fish and Chips shop too. Nice one.

Are that vikings raiding in mexico with a helicopter with Silvester rockets and a potato sun? Well if it's nothing else.
Just hammering on Space solves all Ammo problems... and once the vikings block your ammo supply and you don't have any left, you can't do anything anymore...
I also played until I was on the top of the highscores? Is that bad?

Very funny game, and good idea. I'm not entirely sure those are homemade sounds though?
Apart from that- Great game!

Funny game with a clever use of the theme! Nice, cute graphics . My only complaint is that it didn't feel like the difficulty increased as you played. The ammo guy is awesome! :)

had to score you low on audio for the copyright sound -- good game but could never get more ammo because the dude kept getting killed -- nice game
