Nice overall execution too. Didn't overstay its welcome either, the game ended just before the mechanic got boring. Of course it could be built upon to get more content. Some kind of shopping system and different enemies are the first thing that come to mind.\n\nI have some minor gripes with the controls. The biggest issue was losing the cursor and clicking outside the screen. Should probably lock the cursor and use custom \"virtual cursor\" that could also be more visible too. Maybe drawing a line from gun barrel to cursor would help too. Well, a laser sight could be a viable purchase in the shop. :wink: Also machine guns so you wouldn't need to keep clicking. The grounded detection for jumping was very finnicky when on top of enemies. I had few times when I was standing on an enemy, went for a jump and just nothing happened and I fell to my doom. Also pressing down on a roof was a feature I wasn't ready for. I tried it in hopes of panning the camera down and of course again, I fell straight to en enemy.\n\nAnd now that I'm on the topic of camera, it could use some love too. The follow target should probably be the cursor and not the character. Or to be more exact, the mid point between cursor and character clamped to some nice maximum value. It makes no sense that when I'm moving right and shooting left that the camera is panned 2\/3 way to look to the movement direction and I can't really see what I'm shooting. Would really help with those clearing sections where you're on the roof and have no idea what is under you. Those situations felt quite awkward also because you can't shoot straight down.\n\nThe art was clean and nice. Could have used some more effects and variations though. Maybe some color\/face variations on enemies. Definitely some particle effects like for jumping\/landing (enemy too), bullet hit when not killing. And those same actions could use a sound effect too. The shooting sound wasn't bad. If I'm not fully mistaken, there even was some variation in it so it didn't get monotonous very fast. But it still kinda did because it pretty much was the only sound effect. I think the only other one was the killing sound but that was kinda bland and quiet in comparison that it didn't matter that much. It would have needed more oomp, that *\"yess you just killed something\"* badassery.\n\nAnd next to nice and bassy sound effects, one easy way to add that oomp to actions is the pinnacle of game design, screen shake! Of course it's easy to go overboard with it and some people don't like it (or get nauseous) but god damn it makes games feel more dynamic and less boring. And I'm pretty damn sure you used Cinemachine and it's super easy to do with that. Well, not like making camera move randomly for a small amount of time is rocket science anyway.\n\nAnyways, good job, really liked it! :thumbsup::sunglasses::thumbsup: ","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"ImportantCreations","author_uid":"1054778","time":"2019-10-11T17:37:53Z","epoch":1570815473,"modified":1570815473,"text":"Would be nice if you could fire directly under the character as you sometimes can't see whats going on under you.\nAll in all: Very nice! :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"TORT60091","author_uid":"1172643","time":"2019-10-11T17:38:14Z","epoch":1570815494,"modified":1570829229,"text":"@antti-haavikko\nSoo cool feedback, thank you man.
