Critical Massacre by Sam_ONella
A gun to protect you from all harm... as long as you don't let it get too hot.
Characters who most certainly aren't references to any iconic 80s media.
All assets made by yours truly, (except a single 5 second public domain FMV for a gag, hopefully that doesn't count). Used Unity, Audacity, GIMP, and FL Studio.

At first I got really confused at the controls since W doesn't do anything, turns out I have to use the spacebar. Would be great if you tell the player to use it to avoid confusion
Sometimes I get stuck on places with a low ceiling, and sometimes the soldier can shoot through them.
But this is super addicting! I want to retry the game everytime I fail, and that's really a great factor. Overall, such a solid game. Well done!
Strenghts :
Cool visuals and audio
It’s a shooter where you have to think !
Combining the lifebar with the heat meter was a great idea
Possible improvements
The encounters might be a bit tough.
Great game !
