Nice game, but I could't target the skeletons, so I died in the second wave on every time.

Thank you all for playing!
@ragnta did you play with a controller ? it's a bit too hard playing with a keyboard, I'll see if I can ease the aim

@valentin thank you :) I'll try it at lunch

@ljay thanks for playing, if you played it with a keyboard, you should try to play with a gamepad, it's way easier to aim and move around :)

How you not gonna call this "Throw me a bone". Graphically this is amazing, and the audio fits perfectly.
I love the concept I just wish it was a tad easier.

No, I don't have controller, and yes it's a little bit hard with a keyboard :)

Nice game! Lovely visuals. I included it in my compilation video series of games from the Ludum Dare, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/QGU5NZBTfXo

I just love this entry, its smooth and full of personality! The flashing red lights made me kinda dizzy after a while though

Hey, thank you all for playing, I still need to play a lot of games and I'll try yours :)

@jupiter-hadley thanks for playing it, it's always a joy to see you play so many games!

@narudgi there's no end (didn't have the time to make something that felt right) but you can try to survive the longest, there's no real limit to how many skeletons can appear (the limit grows each wave).
You can try to last as long as you can / or you computer can handle :3
