Fight against hoardes of robots to get their money.

The money can be used for grenades but it also represents your health.

Due to the fact that i was alone and didn't had that much time i wasn't able to implement everything i had planned. But it should be playable :)

Movement: W A S D

Sprint: Shift

Jump: Space

It was strangely creepy to see robots walking slowly in from the distance. It got pretty nuts after a while but I figured the best way to hold out was to stay up on that hill. Most of them couldn't get up and I could hop off and hit them all with a grenade in the end.

It was pretty fun. I enjoyed the bullet hit effects and could tell a lot of extra attention was payed to those quality of life additions. I stopped around wave 7 or so. Good job!

I really like the pacing in this game with one small suggestion. In the first wave the robobts spawned far away from me and I had to search for what felt like a long time to kill the first four.

I think having an aiming cursor would be a low hanging fruit.

Good work.

Nice game - simple but good graphic - the sprint doesnt work good, do i sprint when i press or is the sprint short ?

Simple enough. Just hold down shoot and grenade & run away from the big hordes. Enjoyed it thoroughly :)

I don't know why but this game didn't fit me. I think because I have enough from shooting things. But considering that you did this alone is awesome. You can make this game bigger if you keep working on it. Keep up your good work. And don't let any comments like mine encourage you. Getting feedback is awesome. Even if it's bad :v:

Lol I had way too much fun luring hundreds of robots close together just to blow them all up at once, nice game :)

Thank you all for the feedback!

@mrstari you can only sprint for a short amount of time until you run out of stamina. When walking normal it will regenerate. I should have added some kind of visual bar for that.

This was really fun, I liked how quickly the intensity sped up. I thought the mechanics were created really nicely, and the landscape was awesome. It felt very polished and I will definitely play it again! Thanks!

This game looks really nice, I liked the map and sound effects as well. I figured out that you can continually kite enemies around, it'd be cool if there was another type of enemy that would charge at you to make it harder to just walk around

"Like ants coming out of their ant hill, the robots flooded the country side..."

This was seriously fun and hilarious. Theme is very standard life-as-currency mechanic, but this game is all about letting the robots mass together and blow the hell out of them with the mega grenade. I was cracking up laughing the whole time. Next thing I know, I've lost track of time, I'm over 60k in coins and I'm 15 waves deep. I don't know how long I spent playing, 30 or 40min straight, but that was good, mindless fun. 3.5 overall score, but I gave it a 5.0 on fun!

On that last wave I played, 1024 robots spawned and I let them mass together. Then I spammed a bunch of mega grenades and went down from 60k in life/coins to 6000. My computer slowed down for a few seconds as I carpet bombed those robots back to the trash heap LOL!

The gun was not very satisfying. An aiming reticle or iron sights would probably improve it.
I had more fun getting them to bunch up and blowing them all up at once. Decided to stop at wave 10.

A fun little first person shooter. The game is a easy and the AI is a bit stupid, but that is okay for a game jam game. Overall a pretty good LD game. Well done.

would have been a lot easier if it had a crosshair, or something to help me aim. the robots are SMOL and had difficult hitboxes to hit.

Overall very fun, simple zombie game.

Overall this was a really fun game. I think it’s a great prototype to work from for sure. Great work.
