This is my first full game :).
I'm proud of the result!
On the "second day" i was uninspired but it got better at the end.
Next ludum dare : make a team, start with en engine or librarie!

*EDIT* Added a soundless version for Mac and linux. I'm going to debug that when I get near a Mac next week ... meh.

Fast and Frantic, too fast for me to keep up but I stay alive for a minute or so. Gets the heart rate gong and the fingers jamming. I loved blowing away crowds with a grenade and I liked the mental jam of figuring out which of 5 weapons to use NOW.

It crashed before I could even kill my first guy... I'm on a iMac BTW.

Game crashed about 30 seconds in. Fun little concept and good graphics. Great job.

Ha! That was fun! :D Grenades are the best. Kudos on your first game! Keep up the work, and look forward to seeing what you create in the future!

Actually pretty neat, and I dig the pixel graphic. The little spider things were tricky!

Unfortunately also crashed for me about 20 seconds in all 3 times I tried it. I'm on a macbook here. Seems like a cool game, though the reticle was a bit hard to see.

Cool and fast paced game! Controls feel good as well. Art style is simple and sweet. Good job!

P.S. I HATE those spiders!

Won't accept input and generates PulseAudio crashlogs on Linux

It seems that the mac/linux versions are crashing due to audio. Perhaps you would put up a silent build for us?

I love the art style, the gameplay is nice, but the controls are a bit sticky. Also, the entire game glitched out when i tried the web launcher(all the enemies were stuck in the ground.) The jar version was fine though.

I like it! Do you win if you reach the top of the hill?

Pretty interesting. I found the slope level to be a bit to easy, you could basically just stand in one spot and spam the shotgun forever. I ended up with a huge pile of corpses half way up the slope, hah. The other level seemed more well balanced though.

Thank you for all your comments :).
@mad and linux users - Made a soundless version for Mac and linux (going to check that out next week)
@Terra - The slope was the first level, i made the other 2 (randomly generated) levels 2 hours before the end :). Maybe the slope should have more mobs. :)

@MadGnomeGamer - No, and i would add : you die faster haha.

@xBlinkedx I don't have that issue on the web launcher :(. Thank you for you comment :).

@the8donut - I don't like them ether, but they are easy to kill when they don't HAVE to jump ;)

@Zillix - Thank you :) Pixel can be really good looking (mine is okay, but i will keep practicing :)

@R3ason - :) awww thank you very much, i looking forward my next game ^_^. The grenade also slows down the survivers haha.

@gavin5564 - Crashed? Meh :(.

@JesterBLUE - How , you were 100% in the game :). Thank you ^_^

Cool game. Reminded me of Soldat. Fun entry.

Love the fast-paced pixel style. The rain makes it pretty tricky to see your shots in the beginning. Enjoyed playing it.

Nice small game. Good job!

Was pretty frantic in till I got to the slope level. Then I could just grenade them all as they spawn. I like the gameplay, wish you moved a little faster though.

I really enjoyed this game! Killed about 1200 enemies on the slope level first time I played it :P.

I didn't think much of the other level though, especially the fact that the player didn't auto-climb over the little obstacles. The rain didn't help either. Also, the shotgun sound drove me crazy after a while :P.

The shotgun and grenade were a little overpowered though, so I almost never used the gun or the laser.

Really nice graphics though! (Although the gun's bullets were hard to see.)

Fun and clean game design on this one, with a nice choice of weapons.
But it lacks a bit in possibilites for the player, if the terrain was destructible for example there would be a lot of ways to play, but now you just shoot and walk a bit.
Though, this game is designed to be simple, so it's good the way it is.
