good game but its not good for learn the player by insert text
I'd love to see an expanded sequel to this.
My only complaint about the game is that it is just too easy. The revive allowed me to beat each character on my first try, bad ending on two of them to be sure, but still a finalized run.
I'd have loved to see some enemies that takes more than two shots to kill and perhaps some hazards that could injure both you and enemies (like how the exploders work, but with movement rather than attacks as triggers)
This is great! The animations are so tactile too. How do you wait a turn on pc.
E! (or Q / T I think)
Thanks! Love your game.
Edit: This doesn't work for me, but holding enter does.
Hello, the author of this wonderful game, I want to ask you a question, why do you need a light bulb for the last character of the game? And why the improvement in the form of a sight? I don't understand what it modifies?
The final character does maximum damage at far ranges and comes with a flashlight upgrades
Thanks a lot for the reply!
AMAZING GAME!
I really loved your game, seriously! It's a great experience on how to make a simple, fun, challenging and really cool game. And a suggestion: it would be amazing to be able to explore inside buildings, like entering destroyed houses to look for items and defeat enemies
Any chance at a playdate port?
please add more content, it's really a great game
Love you game
Thank you for playing!
I love the gameplay, i love the art direction and i love Leo. An absolute hidden gem, 10/10. Good job!
Will it have a linux port soon? I want to play it on my steam deck
I cant figure out how to unlock new survivor's do i just have to beat the game? Or is there something else i have to do?
Hi Steepledalloy47! Yes, you need to beat the game to unlock the next class.
how did i get another character? :)
I super duper love it!!
Visual, audio, gameplay melds together perfectly.
Bugs found and some suggestions :
- when the round starts the player sprite is the default one, rather than the one chosen
- the end round button shouldn´t trigger the continue button
- move the option button up top and add a wait turn button (a palm) in it`s place (it`s a stretch to tap up for wait turn on big displays) and move the shoot button down for symmetry
- you could add an extra character? with a crossbow? or any other content?
Love it bro, even as it is :D
This game is wonderfull! Nice core loop, good and smple mechanics, challenger levels (that's better because there is random levels generated, but the level designs stills consistent, man, how did you do that??), stylish graphics and the sounds... wow, the sounds is amazing!
I play this game every day in metro (I'm still trying to finish the run with the second character). Man, great work, honestly, you made a masterpiece.
Thanks for playing and enjoying the game!!
For the level design, I took some influence from the Spelunky books:

I didn't use too many techniques from his level generation, but it was a good reference for me!
Made an account just to say this game is awesome!
It's very fun game! I supported you!
I play with my left hand on the keyboard and my right hand on the mouse, and hitting enter to skip a turn is a bit annoying.
For example, can I assign a skip turn to the left shift key?
It seems to be very comfortable to play with just that!
it says it has a virus plz fix this
Very fun! Love the style too, very snappy.
I'm really enjoying this but can't figure out what the spanner thing is for?Great game, thanks!
Hi Ed! The spanner/wrench is needed to upgrade your character at the end of each week.
having trouble with sideloading the new update file, " Could not find a top-level .pdx file"
Thanks for posting this issue, I'll see what i can do!
Made a video
Thanks for covering the game!
Cool game here's a speedrun
Great job on the speedrun! I left a comment on your video as well 🏆
Did a playthrough of this earlier, loved it! Is the pushback upgrade intended to only affect your gun? Knife didn't seem to gain a pushback effect.
Yes, Pushback only works on the gun. I found out that if I put it on the knife it will break the balance of the game 😅
Yeaaahh I definitely came to realize that after another run or two, bullets would become far more expendable if that was the case. Makes total sense!
Thanks for the kind words 😸
Thank you so much for playing!
