  • I really loved the cutscenes, beautifully done. The enemies art was also fantastic. I actually enjoyed the challenge of beating each enemy a lot, the limited ammo just made me want to keep trying!
  • Hello! I really loved the style of your game! The visuals, the cutscenes, the music, the sound design, all of that is what I mean. It had this very retro feel and was definitely a vibe. Also I gotta say, I think this was some of, if not the best music of the jam. It's been more than a week since I played your game and the music is stuck in my head, namely the final boss theme. You all did a great job with this! The movement was a bit difficult at times. I couldn't always dash in the direction I thought I was. But aside from that, great, fun game! Thanks for joining FrenJam! :D
  • Dummy corner best feature :)
  • I really liked the art style, the funny cutscenes and gameplay visuals are awesome, but Jesus Christ that combat is painful, not a fan of the melee attacks having like a limit recoil and the ammo having a limited amount, getting more ammo is very difficult, would appreciate the rats could've been killed with the shotgun aswell, but they made the final boss a pain to beat, if those issues are fixed this game can be a really fun experience.

Please fix the combat system, rn it feels like a repetitive damage sponge thing with very few resources to get through the stages, they really get on the way on what I think is a very awesome experience.

We actually got some complaints about this from lots of people and compiled it into a list. We're gonna try to fix the combat without changing the gameplay too much (due to the rules). Thank you for taking the time to play it!

Absolute Banger 💯 Certified Classic 💯

I loved your cutscenes, the skeleton model and the way he holds his weapon shotgun style.

Mixing melee weapons and guns into a hybrid is always cool.

Cutscenes in this were great!   I felt like I kept hitting some sort of invisible wall during the boxsaw fight though, like maybe the corpses weren't disappearing right.   Super fun though 

the stage should end the moment you kill boxsaw

Developer

Every stage ends when you kill the boss.

Developer

We'll look into that, thank you

The visuals can make bullets really hard to see, and I feel like some of the enemies have a bit too much HP, but the model of Joel Skeleton and the general scenery itself is really awesome! Also, loved the soundtrack!

Thank you so much for the comment! We did fix that on the update we're working on now, as we discovered a bunch of problems on other PCs, especially with missing scenes. Also, soundtrack is courtesy of LukeLudicrous!

this is scrumptious
