You bought some candy in a mafia owned shop, but the transaction was declined... Now they are after your cash, so you have to defend yourself with weapons bought from the very same shop! In this fast-paced top down shooter, try to survive the deepening debt to an ever growing mafia army. Punch bad guys, buy illegal weaponry (with credit) and shoot bees!

Made by a very confused team of four, the Ludum Dare 48 is our very first game jam.!
Genres: action
Tools: Unity

Really liked the game! The graphics was awesome! My only problem was sometimes the ammo text was hard to read when it was above the houses!

It's a pretty fun game, I liked how you used the theme!

This is a really cool and novel concept! I like it.

If I had to give some constructive critisism:
- The controls are a bit like sliding on ice - it's probably because you're treating the player as a physics object in Unity and applying forces (instead of WASD translating directly to movement as it does in most games)
- It's a bit hard to tell sometimes if I'm damaging an enemy or not, maybe giving them health bars or blood or something would help

This game was so much fun! I loved the variety of weapons. The Twin-Head Gatling Gun was super fun to use. Great job!

Hello, I liked the game, especially the music. What bothered me a bit was shooting, because it seemed a bit off. It didn't shoot where I clicked. If the UI would stand out a bit more, that would be helpful as well, didn't know there is any ammo limit
I died pretty quickly though, I bought a sword and they started shooting, what a mad world.

Nice entry, great work for all weapon gameplay.
If you have plan to improve your game, even if I understand i is a rogue like game, a saving tool can be an idea

Really loved the direction this game went in!
If the gameplay was a bit more clear and juicy then it would be prefect.

I really liked the music and how you interpreted the theme. It was also a lot of fun running around and getting more weapons.

Anyway, I had a lot of fun while playing, great job.

Here's some notes I took while playing:

- Frenetic and fun
- Weapon and item variety is insane!!
- Good replayability
- Really wished you didn't have to rewatch the cutscene when restarting

I'm very impressed! Honestly the most fun game I've played this jam. It's super fun to mow down enemies and then have to run back to the store to get a new gun!
