Super B Saves The City.

Made for Ludum Dare 46 - "Keep it alive"

* CONTROLS ***

C - SHOOT

X - JUMP

ARROW KEYS - move

GOAL **

Aliens are destroying the city, Keep it alive by shooting them!

** CONTEXT ***

You are SuperB and you must kill the aliens before the destroy all the people and the buildings. Made in 48hrs with Aseprite, Unity, Blender and BoscaCeoil.

Inspired by reading too much 'My Hero Academia' and old snes games.

EDIT After a lot of feedback about the buggy camera/controls I've made a 5 minute change to rotate the camera.

That was fun, I made it to the end!

I love the art, music and sound design. The unique isometric view is cool as well! Great job!

This is impressive. I love the combination of 3d and pixel art. Gameplay is very fun.
The controls were not very comfortable, but overall I really enjoyed it.

The Graphics, the sound, the game play is all awesome! The shooting is a little difficult to get the hang of because of the angle of the city, but otherwise was a ton of action arcade fun. I found one glitch (?) that was you could jump infinitely and when coming back down you'd get stuck in the floor.

"I must help the citizen"
*literally kills all the citizen because it is too much fun*

I like the mix of 2D and 3D graphics here, though with the perspective sprites looked a bit odd when close to the player. The fact that your own attacks would damage buildings if you weren't careful made it a lot more fun and challenging.

The controls for aiming felt awkward at first and took a while to get used to. Overall though, a very good submission

The mixture of 3d and 2d is great. But the execution of it is a bit wanky, the only thing that's bad is this bug where i can just spam x to jump jump jump jump jump and land back to realise that my attacks became weird. Besides that, great game!

One of the best games I've played! Absolutely love the aesthetic and the gameplay was solid too.
Aiming shots felt a bit unintuitive I think because there were no diagonally facing sprites.
Otherwise, amazing entry.

The art is super good, I love it. The concept is super cool, and The mix of 2D and 3D is pretty awesome but the only issue with that is often your dude can't tell where you want to shoot and it makes it super difficult to kill dudes sometime and messes up the functionality. But otherwise super nice bro good job!

Amazing game! Everything is great from the art, gameplay and sound :) The whole art style and concept is great as a mix of 3d models and 2d sprites. Very impressive overall.

Great game! The fact that you can also damage buildings and kill civilians adds a new layer of depth to the gameplay. This game also really makes you feel like the super hero, as you come around the corner killing aliens that had trapped civilians before shooting off again to save more people. Shooting was a bit tough sometimes, because you have to move in the direction you shoot, but besides that great game!

oh I really enjoyed this game. Everything was great and nicely done for a compo entry. I think my only criticism is that, I think a mouse click to shoot would have been much more intuitive. The current controls for aiming (with the arrow keys) was a little too difficult.

In the end, I think I destroyed more of the city than the aliens...

Hey, good job! Your game is pretty fun, the idea of saving a town without destroying it more is quite interesting! The main problem for me would be the shooting mechanic which is quite hard to use !

Overall, nice job, you did a great game !

Nice, I really like style. There is a bug where you when you jump too often at once you will land under the ground. Would be cool if there would be a slam attack with distance dmg that scales by times jumped. It seems most of the difficulty comes from the slightly akward controls. Maybe direct aiming and aliens can dodge a bit would have been better.

A really fun game, very satisfying. I love how the 2D and 3D are mixed. A bit tough I would say but only because I couldn't resist destroying those buildings :smile:

Super nice! I really had fun saving the city and destroying as man buildings as possible doing it ;)

Wow, the production quality of the game is impressive, especially given the 48h timeframe. The gameplay is also very engaging and exciting.

The only improvement that I can think of is that some of the camera angle is a bit awkward.

Yeahh I saved the city ! One building left :laughing:

I loooved the mix between the 2d pixel-art sprites and the 3d low-poly environment !
The gameplay is pretty repetitive, and the controls a little bit wonky (jump was difficult to manage, I got stuff in multiple places) and I feel the game would have felt better with more speed and a lot of feedback about what is happening out of screen.
And the sound design didn't felt like it lacked anything, so that's pretty good I guess :D

I'm in love with your arstyle, this is the best looking compo entry i've seen and one of the best games overall I played so far, really inspiring ! I had a blast playing it, the concept is super well executed and very fun to play. Great great entry, especially for a 48H solo work !

@pietro-ferrantelli Thank you so much! I played the hell out of Heal Me Plz, I thought the art was amazing!

Sweeet that was fun man. Love the art style. I felt like a pretty shoddy superhero when I "saved" the city by destroying half of it myself and only leaving 2 buildings still standing ;)

WOOOOHHH!!! Never knew that pixel art can mix with 3D environment! I had a lot of fun playing your game! Especially destroying the aliens was so satisfying! I like how the hero can destroy the buildings as well!
Greato Jobu! :smile:
