I played it several, several times, and while it took me a while to not die immediately, I'm still not sure if I fully grokked it. It's difficult; maybe it's just me, but I'm finding the difficulty coming from imbalances and unclear instructions than a high skill ceiling.\n\nMy main issue is that there are a lot of things that aren't explained too clearly. I know I'm supposed to eat the skulls, but my first five or so plays were just me trying to figure out which skulls I can eat and which ones I can't. The instructions put somewhat of an emphasis on the blood that drops, and I expected it to do something like slow down your health dropping, but I don't think it actually does anything. The instructions say when you run out of ammo, you switch your gun, but with how fast your health drops and how much health it takes to shoot, you'll die before you manage to kill an enemy you can actually eat.\n\nIf the health dropped slower than it does now, and maybe have some visual indicator of how much health each shot is going to take from your health, I think it would solve some of the other issues and really shine.\n\nThat being said, I think the game has potential, and I especially like the art style. Great job on finishing the game!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"CrispyPear","author_uid":"1050651","time":"2018-12-03T15:04:26Z","epoch":1543849466,"modified":1543849559,"text":"@tomcat94 Thank you for the feedback! There is a high skill ceiling in the game, as I made the difficulty match my skill in the game, which was constantly increasing. Imbalances are expected, though, as this afterall is a compo game.\n\nBetter explanations for the game will arrive soon. Can't be against the rules to edit the description post-compo.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Simone","author_uid":"1033138","time":"2018-12-03T19:03:16Z","epoch":1543863796,"modified":1543863796,"text":"Nice little game, I like the feeling :)","likes":1,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld43\/123523-25c858acf7dbbec66743037229c1b75c.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/crispypear.itch.io\/bloodshot","text":"HTML5 (web)"},{"url":"https:\/\/crispypear.itch.io\/bloodshot","text":"Source code"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"52375","g_author":"1050651","g_event":"LD43","g_eventkey":"71","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"239934","g_title":"Bloodshot","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"3","g_site2_node_id":"123523","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"123523","n_urlkey":"239934","n_parent":"120415","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/43\/bloodshot","n_slug":"bloodshot","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"50651","n_created":"1543173646","n_modified":"1543854926","n_version":"389582","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":123523,"parent":120415,"superparent":9,"author":50651,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2018-12-02T19:38:21Z","created":"2018-11-25T19:20:46Z","modified":"2018-12-03T16:35:26Z","version":389582,"slug":"bloodshot","name":"Bloodshot","body":"You are losing strength, you are hungry.
