No Room for Error by LexiChan

What's happening? Giant Slime monsters, Zombified guards, An ever encroaching wall?!
In No Room for Error you play as a scientist tasked with pushing back what can only be assumed as a science experiment gone wrong. The walls close in around you, the spaces fill with every body added, and the only weapons you have are whatever you can make.
Controls: WASD/Arrow keys to move; LMB to fire; Q and E to cycle through guns, and Enter to continue dialogue/push through end cards.
Each scene has an individual challenge; unfortunately due to time constraints the cards to describe the next room weren't finished....
Level 1: Tutorial - Talk to Dr. Pepper; he lets you know how to play (mostly) then leave before the wall gets you. Level 2: Kill all the things! Level 3: You're in the infirmary where a version of the solution was being produced and shipped out; one of the boxes has the cure. Level 4: The ice machine has short circuited and is now shooting ice everywhere! If the slime filling up the building wasn't bad enough now the room is flooding with ice! Take it out before it takes you out. Level 5: Slime is oozing in through the pipes; some of those monsters are coming from it. Break the pipes before it gets out of hand
Missing
Boss:
Is that... Dr.Pepper? I though he got consumed by the slime wall! And he's lost his mind!!

This is apparently a new thing in this latest version of Unity; didn't even know that file existed nor that it was required. I updated the download link and put that extra file in. If it doesn't play now then I don't know what's up. Sorry about that...!
It was a little hard to avoid enemies/jump and their hitboxes seemed too big. I thought the graphics looked great and shooting mechanics felt good.
The art and animation is really nice, I can tell that you put a lot of effort into the game's style. The game physics are pretty clunky though, and there's not really any feedback for shooting enemies (something like a red flash or a particle effect would have sufficed). The enemy variety was really nice though, it was surprising to see so much stuff going on in a Ludum dare game. Multiple enemy types, multiple guns, dialogue, pickups. If anything, I would recommend scoping your game down a bit and focusing more on polish next time. Good work though!
Minor feedback note: For a game that takes place in narrow hallways like this, I would suggest only having the camera follow the player on the x axis. This solves the issues of the camera following you up when jump, making it difficult to see where you land.
But overall game is nice. I love the graphic.

Good Luck🍀
Graphically, be it the animations or the charadesign it's really nice. The details in the "scenery" are great, nice job on that part too, the title screen is pretty cool, reminds me old sci-fi which is a pretty good thing for me.^^
The death animation is a funny unexpected "detail".
I played the game in 1600*900 (windowed) and had no visual / graphical error.
The controls are correct, had no problem on that part either. As for the gameplay it's also correct, I just had black screens with a little yellow '1' written at the bottom of the screen forcing me to restart the game each time it happened, it was when transitioning from one level to an other.
The concept is pretty classic and fun, a funny run & gun with different things to do on each level. The variety of weapons and enemies is a nice touch.
Nice entry that would benefit from having music or at least some sound effects. Good job! :)
Discovering the shooting flyers was a nice surprise (they looked nice). But here too, the interaction felt a bit off.
Interresting work though.
