I got bogged down by details, and didn't get the story or levels in place I had planned. Instead it's now an insanely hard auto-generated game.

Move using WASD or arrow keys. Shoot using space. You win if you shoot all the demons.

well done. fun to inch around sneaking up on the demons and shoot them before I get hit. Only issue I had was demons spawning right next to me on some new games.

good, but as you said, it's pretty hard :9

I can fully relate. When I found I didn't have time to do any real level design, I just scrambled to get stuff into place. Wanted to make sure the demons didn't spawn within the viewport, but ran out of time.

Wow those demons are fast! After playing a while got a level with no Demons so I was stuck ?!

Pretty hard - demons should be a little slower.

Good work though!

Nice effort. The game is hard because the view is too small to see the demons coming. Sometimes I randomly teleport (or die?) for no apparent reason. A bug?

Nice to see Inky getting some work now that his arcade days are over.

This game is almost impossible as the demons are as fast as the player, you can spawn very close to them, and they can kill you when they're dying.
I also found some camera problems...

Wanted to play this game more, but couldn't make it very far due to the difficulty. I'm hoping for a post compo version :)

Good job on the post-compo version. It fixes all the problems I had with the original game. Keep it up!

This game is extremely difficult before you get the hang of it since the demons are the same speed as you. Challenging but I kinda like it :)
