This game is great. Loved the environment and enemy models, the collecting of energy was very satisfying. Music was nice didn't obstruct from the game or other sound effects. Only negatives were didn't feel that the up and down as well as the camera movement made any difference. Improving this could keep the game feeling fresh over longer periods of time.

I really liked your game!It's got a lot of "just one more" feel to it. With some more variance to the enemies and gun types you could have something really fun on your hands!

Wow, your game is great! It is very fun to play, and feels well balanced! Great execution here! Cool graphics, fun upgrades. I liked the balance between needing time to pause shooting in order to level up.

Wow I got 50,000 points on my first go! I love when scores are like that. The killing of demons is super satisfying, I love that. The music works as well. I found the controls a little bit floaty but nothing I I couldn't get used to. Also the screams, perfect!

Really fun game, ended up with 23 guns at once which was ridicolous xD Very well use of Unreal, I dont think many other engines could keep up well with that amount of mayhem and effects on screen :D Great work!

Really cool take on the genre! I like how you incorporated the "on rails" movement in 3D. Weapon upgrades are really satisfying and the art is absolutely amazing! Great work!

Great game, definitely in my top 10 of most fun Ludum Dare games I've played over the years. I'm going to keep this so I can play this some more whenever I want to have some fun! The concept is simple but it's well-executed. The audio and visuals really add to the experience and feel well done. Later in the game eliminating entire columns of demons is super satisfying. I did feel however that I got to a point where I could not hit the top-row of enemies when they got close, despite trying to aim at them with different angles.

Solid game with a solid rating!

Really great graphics and sounds. I love the effect that occurs when you hit something. That cool warping effect. I did have some issues once the gun got too big on my screen. Kinda hard to see all of the demons on my right side at that point.

I loved how the enemies looked and their jelly-ness. Upgrading the gun was also very fun! Nice job!

Awesome game! First one that i play that was made with Unreal.
I liked how you implemented the power ups, but the controls were hard at the first time.

But congratulations! Solid entry :)

The game is really cool, at first I didn’t quite understand what to do, but then I felt like a real one: a doomgay, a serious sem and a duke nyukin. 10/10, cool job!).

Interesting game. It becomes pretty easy once you roll atleast a few miniguns tho. Wish there would be some upgrades to rotation speed. Also sounds starts overlapping each other at the moment once you get 6-8+ weapons. Ok experience anyway.

Great idea and visuals but controls feel very clunky for me

Best I got was 620,000, Amazing enemy models. Also I love the balance using energy orbs, makes you need to plan.

terribly nice graphics! it's very cool when games are made with such a specific visual. I love experiments!

This is awesome! The spectacle of this game, ridiculous tall guns vs an endless horde of demons, is pulled off so well. Upgrading the gun is always exciting and grabbing all of the energy orbs is just a satisfying site. Well done!

I liked the idea and artstyle, also VFX are amazing!

Necessary to hold LMB to collect XP makes the process challenging, encouraging you to choose the right moment to do it. I liked it also.
But the side moving feels too slow, it seems impossible to deal with a huge horde of enemies after some time of playing, because you have no opportunity to defend both sides of the front. I suppose it may be resolved by giving the speed powerup for XP.

Anyway, nice game! Good job!

Nice. The enemy design makes me wish that I had this playing instead of the included music ;)

This was great, loved the graphics and the vertex glitching out fx. Only controls I understood was left-right movement and left click, but didn't get the aiming part :smile:. Lots variety on the gun upgrades and the gun fx, enjoyed this game, well done!

Very nice game! The fact that you can only strafe is quite confusing at first but I liked it in the end, it lets you focus on the actual interesting aspect of the game: big tower, lots of demons, lots of bullets. I like games that keep it simple and this one is very well done is this regard! Also having to stop shooting to collect XP works well.

I had a bit of trouble with height when I strafed I don't really know why.

Thanks for the game I had fun! (got to lvl 21)
