Lighthouse
Game description:
You are the lighthouse keeper on an island trying to keep the light alive, but there are monsters lurking in the dark trying to turn that light off. You must stop them and save the light that can show path to the lost sailors. Survive as many waves as you can and find out three different endings.
Developer comment:
So little time to make so much. This was my biggest game yet. It still need polishing and balancing, also I've put an effort to make all the art and music stuff in short period but overall, I'm happy with the results. I would most appriciate if you could share your thoughts on the game in the comments. And Thank you for playing the game and reading this :) !
Controls:
A and D - move left or right
LMB - shoot from a gun
E "in front of an object" - (hold) fuel up the generator / (press) light back up the light source

Cool music and sound effects too.
Not much to say, just great work!
I found the pace to be very slow, I think you could benefit from making the first levels more challenging.
(Also it appears you can still shoot while refueling)
but still a good game with great art and music. :wink:
The art is wonderful!
The gameplay is simple but really good, having to both handle the incoming waves and the fuel is nice uwu
I actually only have one single complaint and it is that the game could use more sound effects (when picking a coin, reloading, killing an ennemy etc.)
Anyway, nice entry, well done!
Sometimes, acessing the menu would fire the gun, perhaps a shortcut or deticated key would help.
Pretty Good.
I got a few rounds into the game but only after I had given up I realized that the "home" icon was actually not something to take me to a menu or such, but a shop icon. And that I could upgrade my lighthouse! I think it might have been beneficial if available buys were listed on screen directly. There seemed to be enough space.
Equally, it took me a while to notice if anything happened when interacting with the generator. I was expecting changes in the world or something more dramatic (or at least that it was that yellow arrow that should be moving), but a simple fix could have been to have the UI for the lighthouse fuel levels be on the right side / same side as the generator.
In general though a quite fun game.
- the firing and the pace is too slow I think. maybe you should be able to fire more but also have more enemies and maybe they can take multiple hits.
- when you lose it should tell you why lost (I didn't know why couple of times)
- I think IMO shop items should tell you what they can do. so you weigh your options
I like the setting and the character art. nice one!
