Am I right that you need to get the circle thing to make the elevator work or was I just not in the right spot originally?

I liked that the grenades just "added" to the music :D Went down one path and was just overwhelmed and wound up blowing myself up. I would like if the grenades did more damage, so you could kill like 15 zombies with one.

@doc-kaos You are right. On each floor there is a cog(wheel). You need to find it and pick it up. Once you have that, you can use the elevator. Sorry for lack of info, I did not manage to fit that in on time...

The granades itself were really tricky to implement. I had to go with "workaround" solution that does not work ideally, but I thought that it will be better to have something rather than nothing :) Thank you so much for playing and your feedback!

I liked the graphics and the sounds.

Regarding the gameplay, I found the movements a bit odd, with too much inertia, a bit like if we were on the moon. Still fun to play though.

I really liked the art and music, I found it fun to be mercilessly killing the herds of zombies. Two things I noticed is that I found myself hanging back and trying to kill zombies without reward, and it would have been fun to get something for each kill. Also, I would have liked to maybe have to be hit twice to die, as I would accidentally get a little too close to a zombie early in the game. Overall, a really fun zombie shooter game, nice job.

Couldn't manage to get the second cog, didn't see what I should've done to stop the endless torrent of zombies. The pixel art is very good, and the music & sound effects fit together well. The jumping felt a little floaty at first, but it did make the game more focuused on the running and shooting, as to not inspire Mario-like jumping shenanigans. Solid entry!

Great entry, I especially liked the pixel art and animations.

The jump feels a bit floaty indeed, a common trick for jumps in 2D games is to increase the gravity force applied on the character when he is falling, it usually feels more natural when the falling phase is quicker than the jumping phase. Maybe you could try that.

Nice job anyway !

Graphics are cool, details like the sparks on the grinding gears are nice additions. Bob's funny (love his hairs). Music is a little bit repetitive but fit well with the game. Theme is respected, good entry !

This is a really cool entry! I think there could have been a bit more gravity to the character and enemies to make it a little less floaty, but really well done!

The pixel art is amazing, and mowing down waves of zombies will never not be fun. The music and sound effects are quite snappy, and I like the atmosphere of the levels. As other posters have noted, the jumps do feel quite floaty, but I feel like that can be easily adjusted once the jam ends. I also wish the grenade can be thrown at more of an arc and had an AOE blast when it lands, when I played my character threw it almost vertically and thus only hit one zombie, making it far less effective than just gunning them down. Overall a really solid game with seriously impressive art!

Nice work! It's always impressive seeing how much someone can develop solo in such a short period of time

Welp, I commented on the itch.io page, but I'll say this here, it was a good game impressively made in 48 hrs! Good job!

Thank you all for playing my entry and leaving the feedback!!

@loig : You are right, the movement need polish, as well as I have forgotten to correct the gravity :D

@benjamin123 : I plan to do a post-jam update, so I will think about some reward for the kills and to your second point you are definitely right. You in fact have 3 points of health, but the implementation of loosing it is done very poorly, so it seems that you die instantly. Quick fix there for sure ;)

@neon : Unfortunatelly you have to be fast and try to utilize the granades as much as possible. You can´t stop the horde, it gets only worse with the time :)

@mastoast : I was looking into the code and found out that I have simply forgot to apply the correct amount of gravity. And for some reason I didn´t think of fixing that before hitting "publish" :) Thanks for the feedback, gravity is going to be fixed in first patch ;)

@evannex @thiradil @cyrdaan Thank you for the feedback and your time with my game!

@nice-gear-games : first of all thank you and you are right about the granades. It was a real pain to work on that and the result you saw was just the best workaround I was able to pull off, in order to make the granades work at least somehow. There is still some AOE, but since I have made the explosion on touch and not based on timer, it can be tricky to get the AOE effect every time. This is definitelly wrong and I already know how to aproach it better ;)

@maytch Cheers mate! THank you so much for playing the game. I will get to your entry soon as well ;)

Hi @jin9310 , it's me, David Brocek :)
So I finally got to play your game. BOY, IT IS SO DAMN PRETTY! I just love how gorgeous it looks. The gameplay is pretty simple, yet fun. I really liked when you were running and jumping how Bob was still kicking his legs in the air. I guess it wasn't intended, but to me it added so much character to the animation and felt comedic and cute!

Overall pretty solid entry. The controls were rather responsive, but maybe I would like if the guy was running and jumping a bit faster, but other than that, just amazing. Oh yea, and did I mention the graphics? THEY ARE GORGEOUS!

i would have really liked an option to have jump on the up arrow key aswell, some games like this where there is alot of action on the left hand its just more fun to jump with the moving hand.

@iluvatar Thank you mate! Yeah there are few gaps or even a holes in it, but we all know how it goes with game jams :D Really appreciate your feedback!

@jcmonkey : sure as I am doing a post jam patch, this is really easy think to add, so I will add it to my list ;) Thanks for playing my game

This game just looks great, and honestly it plays great too. The only thing I got a bit annoyed from was the way the grenade throw was tied to my movement, which made clearing out the zombies on the second floor very tedious. I had some fun with the physics though, as some zombies started floating down the elevator shaft behing me.

There is a whole bunch of potential here and as I already said it looks amazing. Really well done!

✔️ Very nice pixel art, the best I've seen in the jam so far.

✔️ Intuitive gameplay and controls.

➖ The movement felt a bit weird. The jump was very low and floaty.

@andidebob Thank you so much for playing and feedback! I agree that the granade behaviour is annoying, and that is mostly because I did not have enough time to prepare it better. I will try to make it better in the post jam version ;) And yes, you can see zombies falling if you are not fast enough :D

@rngames Thank you for kind words about my pixels and controls. Movement is only my bad, as I did not apply the correct gravity :D

This was pretty cool the pixel art was great and the zombies felt endless. Like others I would have liked the grenades to be a bit more impactful maybe not detonating on contact with zombies and having a larger AoE but it was fun anyway

Fun an innovative game. Nice music,.

Movement and grenade throwing were a bit flakey. I got overwhelmed with zombies below me and couldn't figure out how to get through!

Loved the art work. Was a bit hard to aim and manage the swarm of baddies. Great work overall!

Nice game, good music. Is it intentional to climb the walls by jumping? The peashooter is underpowered, making it useless. Throwing the granade with the guss momentum is not a bad idea, but the moon gravity makes it hard to aim.

@copito Thank you for playing and for the feedback. That granade behaviour was just the fastes solution during the game jam, to get the granades work at least somehow, there will be patch for that ;)

@andrewaprice Thanks and yes, you need to be fast in order to not get overwhelmed by zombies everywhere :) There is no cap, they just spawn, so it gets worst with the time ;)

@mrawde thank you for playing!
@rawbits Thank you for feedback and your time with my game. Congrats, you are the first one that actually found out (and let me know) about the "jumping walls" :) It is not correct, I know about it, and it will be fixed aswell. First, I did not think about that, and later, there was no time to fix it to the correct state. So be careful, you can jump yourself from the scene pretty easily ;)

Very good graphics, the music its too small which keeps going and back to fast, thats a bit annoying. I liked the Ideia of to take an item(engine) to can use the elevator, its good to have something to do inside a game, and not just shooting whatever is on front of you. congrats =)

A nice little game. It has a nice theme too! I think one big thing to improve this would be to make taking damage abit more obvious. That could be making an animation and flashing red character or even just making a health bar that bigger than the current lifes counter.

HOWEVER. Its still a solid entry to the jam! Good stuff :)

Graphics and music are good. The jump might be improved by allowing to jump higher, also jumping seems to be very slow. A jump animation would be nice too, but I understand that there is not much time to implement all of these little things in a game jam.

controls are too stiff, failing feels more like the games fault then yours because of it.

The graphics are beautiful. I would have liked a tutorial at the beginning although the controls are intuitive, and I feel the character doesn't have much life, but it is a good game.
Great entry!

I thought the music and the atmosphere were quite nice and I enjoyed it in the beginning but the way the zombies come and the fact you get instantly killed makes it a bit dull after a while. The grenade throwing was akward which made it hard to quickly clear a group of zombies. I couldn't get past the second level because of this. Different guns would have been cool also. Overall quite a solid entry which looks and feels nice but I think is missing some important gameplay elements which prevent a zombie game from becoming boring.
