Ludum Dare 40

Hello and welcome to this Ludum Dare Project. We developed a 2D Clicky Pixel Game based on the MonoGame Libary.

---------------------------------------------------

Tools we used :scissors:

MonoGame (V 3.6)
Visual Studio 2017
Tiled Map (XML Tile-Map-Editor)
Magix Music Maker 2017
Paint.NET
Git Kraken (Git-Tool)
---------------------------------------------------

The Game :bomb:

Earth got some visitors. They opened a portal and went to your place. The Problem: They are to much! Get rid of them. (Seems like they coming faster as you kick their asses)

---------------------------------------------------

Developer :tada:

Pretty fun clicking game! I can't feel my hands yet 20 minutes after I played, pretty addictive. Good job!

nice graphics and music but you should make the pointer a more visible because it is difficult to see it in some scenarios. Overall, nice work :)

Nice game. Good idea and the music was good too. There was a couple of bugs I found. After the first level, all levels had a black background instead of the road background in the first level. Also, after I leveled enough to have a fist instead of the finger the finger was not removed it stayed as a part of the scene.

It is a nice entry. Good job :)

By the way, you should opt out of the graphics category since you didn't make the graphics or most of it.

I played it until I got the laser beam, then I wondered if you can even loose the game^^
But cool soundtrack, good background graphics and easy controls :)
Nice entry.

Hi guys! Nice entry, a lot of work done!

First of all need to notice one thing that is super important, I think.

I re-launched your game a few times and every time I clicked Space on Start, program become "not responding".

Only after 3 re-launches I gave it some time to stop glitching.

Then I realized that any loading in this game shows that program is "not responding" and lasts really long (~60 seconds).

BTW it's not my PC problem for sure.

Ok, and as for game itself, when I was able to play it, it was pretty fun)

About ingame troubles:
1. For the first few minutes I thought that I can move my screen only left-right.
2. A little bug occurs when new weapon unlocked - a sprite of an old one remains on the map.

In general - great entry! I reached level 7 at the end of the game)

Remembered me a bit about good old shoot em'up - Moorhuhn :)

Thanks for playing and for bug informations. Sprite of the weapons dont dissappear, i know. Forgot to fix it :smile:

Some suggestions:
- Make it more related to the theme. You don't necessarily possess aliens, so it's not exactly the theme.
- Make the game less buggy.
- Make the game lighter or create a web GL version (the file I downloaded is 100 MB, which is pretty heavy). Probably the graphics files are heavy.

Overall pretty fun game. Great entry for Ludum Dare. I really like the audio.

Nice tap litle project with a good mood. The main gameplay isn't a revolution, but it is good enough. I had fun playing. There is a big amount of work on the aesthetic and it deserves respect. It could be improved, fixing bugs, adding more features. Well done ++

Music gave this game feeling of purpose, graphics were informative. I've tried to play on touch screen, but it was harder than using mouse. Overall quite enjoyable game.

Talk about finger tapping exercise! This was entertaining and I liked the music and the alien graphics/subtle animations. I was all like "Fear the mighty finger of justice! " until I got the "Fist of Fury!" so I was all like "Taste the hammer of...JUSTICE!" I found myself concentrating on one of the corner of the maps and feeling good only to shift to another corner and be overwhelmed by the amount of aliens I was allowing to roam freely! :P
