Haha really fun !

Soo... My computer crashed when I launched this (on linux). Everything went black, I couldn't do anything. A nazi conspiracy perhaps?

Hi @picapica and thank you very much for checking out my game! I have uploaded again linux and I think you can play now without any problem. By the way, I added WebGL version so you can play on your browser (chrome and firefox recommended).

Cool game. You might want to look into this: your WebGL is up for download instead of being imbedded to the page.

@king-kujito I just fixed this! Thanks a lot!!

Hah I like it. Wish it was longer though

Pros:
Your graphics and mood were very much on point. The sound and music is fantastic. The controls for the game are tight and well designed.
Cons:
Your game was too challenging. Enemies can shoot at the player before you can ever see them, and has a constant rate of fire that means the player either perfectly times their jumps over and over, or die quickly.

It's a shame, because your game looks and sounds amazing, and I would love to experience more of it.

The graphics were the highlight for me. The gameplay was frustrating at first, the jumping feels very slow. Crouching and spamming bullets worked pretty well for me in the end. The use of the theme didn't make much sense.

cool game, but I agree on the jumping. Omg I died so many times!! :D but it was fun playing.

Shockingly hard. You've got a good sense of humor, though. The game and storytelling are very confusing, though.

The game was kinda hard, especially jumping and avoiding bullets at the right time. But I liked the challenge!

Yeah the game is hard and they shoot fast.

I liked how I needed to master the timing of the bullets to fall down from the barrels and pigs. Maybe you could expand on that, like bullets coming from different heights and faster and stronger jumps to make the game more dynamic.

Inside the buildings, when I touch the right side wall, the scene resets. This was quite annoying for a minute because I thought that I needed to get through the room to continue.

Graphics, sound and music on point. Good game!

The music and sound were great! I found that shooting while crouched left the bullets coming out of my face lol. I didn't see much connection with the theme but I know that is optional lol. I think with some more time you could have tuned the feel a bit more. Cool Entry.

I don't like jumping here and strange damage miscalculation, but this game has a potential and idea is cool!

Fun entry. Liked the graphics

Pretty cool arcade style shooter! Needs bosses though!

The constant bullets are a bit hard to dodge, but once you get the hang of it it's fun. Nice art too, and the music suits well, though if you didn't make it during the jam I don't think you should be rated in audio...

The pixel art was fairly good and the music was good, but there were some easy tricks to beating the game that I'm not sure were intentionally existent. The hitboxes were a bit weird and I felt a slow. The game was also a lot shorter than I expected.

Other than that, it's a good entry! :slight_smile:

The game is super easy if you hold the crouch button a lot, and there's no real strategy, so there's not much I can say about the gameplay. The graphics are good, though, and I love the bit with the small world. It got a laugh out of me. :)

I like it! But there's a small problem, the lack of feedback when you shoot and the lack of depth to the game. "Crouch and you'll be find" wasn't enough interesting as a gameplay for me.

Well, it is kinda short and the plot seems weird. I am not really sure about the goal of this plot so I am just assuming it was the jam time limit that makes the game feel unfinished (which is pretty understandable, actually).

I like the art, especially the destroyed city at the background (which reminds me a bit of Metal Warriors and Samurai Jack) and I also like the very very low resolution painting of a guy raising his hand in Hitler's house.

###### *Just reporting a bug I found in Hitler's house (at least in WebGL version): if you go right past the "small world", the scene is reseted and you are back to his house again.

Trying to dodge the bullets was challenging, as they were coming very quickly (especially when there was more than one enemy), so trying to move forward was tricky.

The game is kind of short it would be nice to expand. Also it took me a while that I had to wait next to the sphere since when I moved to the right I instantly was respawned. Played the webgl version

the feedback, depth, and overall game feel could be improved (screen shake, other effects). some of the bits are a little annoying, and dying feels unpolished. overall, not bad though. audio was really great! id like to see where this goes if you continue updating it in the future.
(you said to comment our games too, so here's mine :) https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/38/ragdoll-wars enjoy!)

Great humor but a little simple and short. Maybe more type of enemmies make it more interesting. When you are crouching and shooting it seems like it's by the mouth, the bullets should be lower xD

Nice art and sound!

I like that you made a side scroller and I love the bit about a small world that you can enter to save. You should expand the game and run with this. Like at the end of the small world levels there is a boss you need to beat to move one to the next one and once you've saved enough worlds you fight hitler himself!

Anyways I'm getting sidetracked. The graphics were well done as were the sounds. It did need a little more balance as the bullets and then the carrots? were really fast, although like most people pointed out crouching did help. I didn't have a problem with the controls or the speed of the jumping or crouching, my biggest complaint would have to be how short it is! Ha Ha! Great entry!

Liked the pixel art and music. Gameplay was maybe a bit straightforward though, and very short. Congrats on your first LD

Nice graphics, and weird setting, I liked both of them :D

Gameplay was relatively straightforward, keep going forward, avoid and shoot. My only issue was that I got stuck on the first room because of a possible bug that caused you to start again on the other side. Because of that I couldn't see the text about the sphere the first two times I played. as others have said, it could use a bit more polish, but in such a limited time that is hard to achieve most of the time.

Good job!

Fun little game, I really liked the graphics and the music :D

This game is crazy difficult! A more generous hitbox on the player would have been nice ;) However, it felt very satisfying killing all those Nazis :D

Personnally, I find the game to be rather difficult. The graphics and audio are solid but other than that it's pretty basic.

I really had a hard time moving forward as the damn nazis were shooting so fast. Just crouching and waiting for bullets to pass didn't really seem like a fair challenge. But your art is nice and the game world interesting!

Graphics and audio are excellent but the game is way too hard for me. It felt like there just wasn't enough time between bullets. Maybe I would have done better with a game pad but I'm rubbish at difficult games like this anyway! Tweak the enemy fire rate or wait till they are on screen to start firing then I think this could be a pretty sweet game. Again the visuals are top notch, particularly the little animations.

Oh no! Nazis kill me...I'm not so good in general at that kind of game, but I think I did my record of number of deaths per minute. It's very frustrating because the game looks fun, with nice graphic and music! I would like to have the possibility to see more about it. :/

This is really a fun game. The art style is amazing and overall it's a very good game. The bullets could spawn a little less frequently though. I died many times on the second "VEGGIE" level xD.

I LOVED THIS GAME! i laughed so much with the vegans! It was a little too hard hahahaha. My favorite game so far, Congrats!

Way too hard but the idea is very funny!!!

I thought this game was very hard, until I thought about the Duck command. Then it was fairly trivial. I had almost given up on the game before that though.

The graphics are quite nice, and I generally don't like pixel graphics. The music was also pretty good.

This is a very well done and polished game. It seemed a little short, but that is understandable since this is a 3 day competition (making a game is very hard for those who don't know. Especially when it is your first time). The graphics are very well done and the music was very good. The game did seem a little difficult until I got the duck and shoot method figured out, which I assume was done intentionally to make the game more challenging (it worked). The humor was very funny and I think your death messages are great. Overall, great job! :)

In a way it was kind of poetic that when starting up the game you got the option to exit it, but then when you played and died and died and then there was no option to quit the game again from the death scene. There was only the option and try and try again. The game itself I found really hard and I never got further than between the first set of two barrels and the single barrel after that. So for my sake it could really have been a bit easier to start at least. I could hold my ground fairly OK for a little while, but shooting and progressing was too hard. The shots seemed to not relate coming for me seemed not to relate to the number of Nazis on the screen either which took away from the feeling of success of having cleared out all for a brief moment of time. It also felt like the hit-box on the character could have been a little smaller so that it was at least fairly possible to jump over the shots. It was quite addictive game though, and I tried quite a few times. I like the music! Good job.

Graphics and music were awesome. Loved the idea of vegan nazis too! The only thing I would change was the high rate of fires shot at you. It was nearly impossible to dodge them without dodging every half second and moving forward just a pinch. Anyway very nice game :)

Okay the full on Nazi theme had me going, but once the second level started... :laughing:

Also the music was so great, if only Doom 2016 had y'all do the audio!

Fun idea you had!

But I think there are a few simple changes you could do to make it a better experience.
For example, moving a bit faster, and having a bit more time after you die (to see that you have been hit properly and to make the restart a little bit less rough).

And actually when I entered the house with the small world, I didn't understand at first I had to wait in front of it, and thus I went through the room several times before understanding it. ^^

Crazy idea haha, but maybe it's hard to see the theme here. The art is really cool!

Funny job!

Muy buen juego ¡La música está genial!

Es verdad que es bastante difícil, pero a la vez los nivels son cortos así que esá bien balanceado. Quizás podrían haber reducido el *collider* del héroe para que las balas no le dieran tan fácilmente y así tener niveles más largos.

A pesar de tener pocos *frames*, están bien las animaciones, haberlas agregado en un ludum dare no es algo trivial ;)

Para no solo decir cosas positivas, todos los elementos son pixeleados, excepto la cruz, ¿por qué? :D


Man those Nazis are mean! It took me a while to get past the first barrel lol! Very challenging game. I love the humor and the music. Only one suggestion, I think you should turn down the difficulty at first then ramp it up as you progress.

very good story. made me think a lot. Good graphics and audio

super game and like pixel art and music but what to do with strange ball at room ?

hahaha @athomicus you need to wait in front of the ball and wait to... enter the "small world" :D

The artwork looks awesome! I just miss a smoother gameplay, but it's a very nice entry.

Keep up the good work.

Congratulations!

Cheers!

A very interesting entry. I enjoyed kicking Nazi and vegan butt, although I feel like the time between bullets flying on the screen was a bit too short. Very straight-forward game play. I loved the artwork and humor of your game though. :)

Hehe, that was quite silly. It has some kind of a Contra feel to it, even more unforgiving maybe.
I had to read comments to understand I had to wait next to the sphere to progress. WebGL version as well!

fuck vegans

Crouching and shooting = winning :D :D The graphics and the audio are pretty good. For a first entry you did a really good job.

Cheers

There were a number of bugs that made this game difficult to play... the hit boxes were really off for me, and entering the first room was very un-intuitive as to how to progress. If i went to the right edge, it reset the room again, seems like that could have been done better there. The gameplay itself was pretty unresponsive, and felt un-necessarily difficult. In particular, the frequency of bullets and the fact that the movement was pretty stiff made it very difficult to make it anywhere.

I did like the graphics, and the music was pretty good too. I think there is promise here, but it needs a lot more polish.

I am not very good in games with shooting, but I like the idea, and graphics with humor are great.

I always knew those Vegans were up to something ;)

Pretty good entry. The bullet hitboxes were a bit big, and it was possible to stand on top of boxes/pigs/barrels and just let the enemies pass under you to win.

Great mood and art!

I don't like that jump at all, but somehow the game is catchy. The pixel art is really nice, and overall nice entry. Good job, keep it up!

Really like the art and music of the game. Fun for some time.

The graphics are really good, sounds aren't too bad.

The UI could use a lot of work, death leads to the game over screen way too abruptly. Why search for "R" when the jump or fire button could be used to restart.

A health system would be better than the one-shot kill. If you're going for Contra-style difficultly, then at least make use of death animations and scene transitions.

Finally, I think the scene loading was bugged? I only got about two screens in and then it loaded a small room, and every time I walked through it the same scene would load over and over again.

Challenging game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 38 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :)
