Objective: Keep your Crown Crystal alive from bloodthirsty goblins for 6 waves. Instructions: Press 2 for the rocket launcher, 1 for the assault rifle. Hold Left Mouse Button to fire. WASD to move, Space to jump. Escape to return to main menu.

Important: There are a few bugs we weren't able to fix in time. Your OS cursor will be on-screen, you may fix that by alt-tabbing out of the game and back again. If you fall off the map you won't be teleported back up; also, stages don't reset when you lose. These can be solved by reopening the game. Will release a fixed version soon, but this version is still fully playable. Thank you for checking Crystal Goblin Storm out!

Absolutely amazing game! The only "problem" is that all the enemies walk through the exact same gate, makes it a bit too easy..

I really enjoyed this game, although I would have wanted it to have a hard more, where no rocket launchers would drop, becasue they drop way too many times. Endless mode would have been fun! Overall, a very fun game! Would you update the game with more feedback?

The movements were really smooth and the graphics were really cool, it is a really good idea for the game and i think you should develop it more. Unfortunately the game crashed when i blew up a lot of goblin with explosive barrels. :(

Really cool game guys! The movement and shooting had a great feel and I really liked having the ability to customize my gun. The particles and the environment looked great! I was slightly dissappointed when there wasn't a boss battle at the end and my ears cried when I blew up a line of goblins with explosive barrels. When that happened, the overlapping explosions were extremely loud. Other than that, excellent game, well done!

OK this is cool ! There is attention to details like the weapon customisation and the minimal (which helped me a lot)

I would have loved to explore the world, it looked so fun to play in but there was everytime little goblins to kill that made me go back to the begining. Also quick things you could do to improve the game could be to hide the cursor and to allow the player to switch weapon as there is only two, for example with the mouse scroll wheel.

Anyway I had fun, keep it up !

First of all, thanks everyone for the feedback!

@spacegirl :heart: @dave-gamedevelopement I agree!! Wish I could've spiced it up a little bit, but didn't have the time. They do come from two other points though, just not as frequently. @casual-dutchman Yes! We want to release a version with bugfixes and a few things we didn't have time to implement, will notify you when we do it. Also yeah, the rockets do drop a lot. The waves system was one of the last things we managed to implement, so we didn't have any time to balance things out, the variables were almost pure guessing. @minrato2 Thank you!! We might develop it more, who knows. @cancerous Thank you! Definitely not my voice hehe @lukas-shiley we did have something VERY nice to implement at the end, but didn't have the time,unfortunately. We plan to implement it in the bugfixed version, will notify you when we release it! @miracl Thank you!! What do you mean by minimal? You're completely right, time to explore the world would be amazing, maybe a button to let waves start or something like that. It's a waste to not let players explore the gorgeous scene my friend @Greon created. Will do something like that in the bugfixed version! Will notify you! @epsulon Thank you!! I really like FarCry.

I made it to stage 3 and then fell off the stage lol, but this is one of the funnest games I've played for the game jam so far! I really loved the music and sound effects and the exploding enemies :smile_cat:

I love the art style. Looks fantastic. The shooting gameplay works well; the AI’s not too smart, but it’s a good challenge once they start swarming you. The explosive-barrel ones are a fun addition. Great work!

Great FPS Game! There was one thing that gave me many issues during the game, when goblins dropped guns the collider on the weapon was affecting my shots on the goblins and I didn't understand what was the purpose of the guns they dropped. I just picked them up sou it wouldn't affect my shots, Overall great game! good job.

Fun entry, the overall feeling is great. Few things to consider for future improvements :
- New enemy types of course (flying, ranged monsters)
- Work on the contrast and color scheme of enemies and environment, depending on their position in the environment it's very hard to spot them because of the lighting / color palette
- The player's movement and feeling is great, you should probably add some way to move around quickly in the level (like bumpers) and add some challenges around this (enemies aiming at the player to paralyze / slow him ?)
Good job

Very Nice Entry! Pros: Audio rocks! SFX are nice. Ambiance is cool. So much models Cons: Player was a little fast (I understand the use of speed to bring dynamism in your gameplay) but at first I was really surprised. Good Job!

This was really fun to play, and i love the atmosphere. It got a little challenging at the end but maybe that just because i'm not very good at FPS games, but i still managed to make it through to the end. Great job!
