Really enjoyed the pixel art style of the characters! I struggle a bit with some of the mechanics. It says 'R' reloads but it seemed like in some cases it was not working? I think you had a great pattern going with audio but thought it could use a bit more variety before it repeated. Great first LD submission!

I noticed you weapon stay where you die and sometime in a difficult place. Otherwise nice touch with the auto jump.

It's pretty rough and unpolished, but I really like the design of the enemies such as the red guys and the tank. And I like how you have to give up your health to buy weapons, that fits the theme really well.

Great Art. Controls are difficult. Not sure how to get past first level. Don't know how to open door. Has potential. Keep it up!

I can't seem to figure out how reloading works but if you drop the weapon and pick it up your ammo resets so thats how I had to play. It is a fun game and reminds me of a lot of classics. Definitely has potential.

Great pixel art. Noticed a bug with the WebGL build where I wasn't able to see the whole shop menu, and wasn't able to close it.

I was also having some reloading problems and shooting problems. I did think it had great artwork! Awesome game submission!

I could not get the knife and ran out of bullets before killing the first enemy, so I am stuck at the first level.

The menu is over the gameplay from the start and prompts me to either restart the level or quit, I reloaded the game several times before realizing you have to press Escape for it to disappear. It's also weird that the menu does not pause the gameplay :) The art is good, liked the guy with a crossbow :)
