A short topdown wave survival game where your weapon is randomly decided every 10 seconds.

Mostly unfinished but mostly for fun.

This is not a bad start for a game. I tried quite a few times to play but I keep dying in such a short time that I don't really have time to adjust and figure out how the different weapons work. If you are planning to develope this further I'd suggest you give the main character just a bit more movement speed, little more health and limit the amount of enemies that spawns right at the beginning.

Once I got any sort of long-range weapon I had more time to get to know your game and all the effort you had put to it. It's impressive what you've done in 48 hours and it would be shame if a player would miss it all because they keep dying right at the start and decide not to play because of it.

Are the rating disabled for this one? I think this is a good idea and if the enemies had an attack animation, it would be fine. Maybe you can make it so some areas of the map are blocked by obsticals you remove with a spesific weapon?

Lol, I was doing perfectly fine until I wondered what would happen if I enter a building

Not a good idea :D

Nice work! I love these kinds of games. One thing I'd recommend is checking to see where the player is when spawning enemies. I died from an enemy spawning directly on top of me.

Nice to have some variation in power levels between the weapons too, but the melee weapons felt especially useless compared to some of the others, haha.

Did you mean to have ratings disabled?

This seems like a fun one develop. Coming up with weapons and effects is a blast (see what I did there). Needs some more polish but was fun.
