Gimgumho by EPIIC - LesGougnafiers

[raw]
made by EPIIC - LesGougnafiers for LD 41 (JAM)

This is our first ludum dare and we made this Tower Defense/Run n' gun game!

In Gimgumho you have to fight guardians of the altar and find cool treasures. To make the task easier you have 3 turrets which can help you with particular abilities.

It's a pretty cool game!
I found I stuck after killing all the monster on the second place, is that the end or I just miss the path to next area?
btw I think if there is a cursor to show where you are pointing to, that will be easier to play with!

Thanks for your return.

We had a problem with the end of the second area where three enemies do not disappear and prevent the final boss to appear and we didn't have time to solve it :/

Did you play with keyboard or Xbox controller ? It'll be easier to play with Xbox controller but we have program for keyboard so that everyone can play.

Thanks again for played our game and your return.

Interesting concept and a good start for a first game jam. :D
I've found a bug. The dogs(?) got stuck in this area for the whole time. I stood on this position in the picture and they did not reached me.
And what are these green, blue and purple squares?

Thanks for your nice feedback!
I don't really know why the dogs are stuck in this area, actually they are supposed to detect and attack you. We'll try to find why it doesn't work here!
And these squares are supposed to be your turret's lifebars :)
Thanks for helping us with your feedback!

Beautiful game, I really liked the art, I had problems on the keyboard to know where I was shooting, but taking it out was a lot of fun!

Congratulations for the game!

Thanks for the return man.

We make the game for player with xbox controller and we change our mind at the end to add keyboard / mouse.

I'll check your game ;)

This was an interesting concept for a game, good use of the theme. The graphics were excellent! I did run across a couple of bugs that caused me to have to restart a few times. The main one was that I found I could not use the left/right trigger shoot commands without getting stuck. Good job, though, would really like to see this polished further.

Beautiful graphics. The gameplay is quite buggy, I got stuck in a wall, but otherwise I liked it very much, the abilities very cool too.

How can I play the original version of the game? I mean, I can't really rate the newer and polished version...

I really like the hand drawn graphics. The game was a little laggy, but that could be me. I had to play it in virtual box on my mac.

My game also needs more ratings. So if you like to check it out: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/soccer-slasher

Hi! Nice work you've done here!

Aiming seems pretty difficult sometimes, I think the controls could be improved. Nevertheless, it didn't stop me from destroying the giant boss :D

Loved the art and the guitar in the background!

Nice little game! The graphics are superb! For me, it was a little lacking in instructions. Like, what do the differet towers do, what are the boxes on the left (once you know it, it's quite obvious they are supposed to be the towers health. I only did figure it out by reading the comments.) and what is the glowing structure at the end? Shooting in the right direction was sometimes a little difficult.

But all in all I had fun, nice game!

Great graphics and atmosphere.

These various turrets remind me of how Rogue Trooper had various chips attached to different parts of his gear :)

I loved it, has enormous potential :)

Let me know what you think of mine :)

nice game though a little short, but is expected with so little time.. with some polish it could be a game! the TD aspect wasnt as fleshed out, it seems more of a run and gun.

Really loved the visuals here. after a slight bug with controls not responding (that i'm pretty sure was my controller being difficult) i had a lot of fun playing this. My only comment is that i found the shooting to be a little hard to control, it seems to be snapping to a specific angle.

Lovvve the art style here - looks really slick for a LD game! That the controls are only explained with a controller is a bit weird, I suspect 90% will play it on a keyboard. :D but I figured them out.
The three are effective, and doing a bit of a bullet dodger while they pewpew is a nice mechanic.

Would have liked to have an occasional battle effect tho - maybe a very slow revolver or something.
The boss smashed me, but was fun till then.

Cool game! The art was very good but the controls were a bit confusing. I tried to play it on pc and didn't relly knew at first what buttons to use. Also it was pretty hard to aim on pc because i didn't know which way i was pointing, so a crosshair would've helped. Nonetheless an interesting game.

Guys I can't play your game because the archive seems corrupted... Could you compress it with .zip instead of .rar ? Thanks
