Alfred's Box by Dgames_Crew

JAVA MAY BE REQUIRED IF JRE BUNDLE SYSTEM FAILS

Your crazy neighbor, Alfred the nut, asks you a favor to keep IT alive, which is in the box, from dying to the crazy robots from a different dimension. That itself explains why he is crazy.

Shoot the robots from your window and keep IT alive.

But the true question is, who or what, is IT?

The voice acting at the beginning killed me - amazing XD
The game itself is okay, shooting is a bit odd but functional, and the difficulty is pretty damn balanced!
The ending was interesting - gave me Birdbox vibes.
All in all good game!

The end did not disappoint! Well done, I think I broke my mouse clicking so much 😅 One thing that put me off a bit was the window size, I kept clicking next to it and focussing another program having to scramble to press Alt+Tab.

Great little game with a brilliantly funny story. Those last few minutes trying to protect IT get quite tense! Very well done.
Great experience.

I loved the idea! The fact that you have to time correctly when to shoot (beacuse the bullet doesn't hit the enemy instantly) makes it quite challenging

the phone call at the beggining is great!!! I do love the audio and everything. However would have wanted music or more atmosphere, but well I found it perfect for a jam like this, keep the good work!

I would pay 60$ for that phone call in the beginning alone.

Pretty Funny, but I think it's too hard..

standard arcade-like shooter but the overall creepiness and humor in the start and end really make it cool, no reason to play it more that once as far as i can tell though

Nice Game! It was the first game to really make me rage quite a bit. It was quite difficult. I think I beat it, but I'm not sure because there was no win screen, and it just started me over. Is there a win screen? The only real complain I had was that the gunshot noises were really loud even if I turned down my volume, and the game didn't go full screen, which was a little annoying. Overall though, it was quite a nice game.

I especially loved the Lovecraft vibes in the end cards. Well done.

See me barely making it through:

The voice was so funny, so bad the game is too hard for me (I'm bad at shooters), I think you can improve the audio effects and the graphics still :)
