Great job on the game! Simple gameplay, but well polished. That's a lot of bones :D!

What a fun game! I've always enjoyed battling skeletons. The graphics are excellent, and I love the gameplay and physics, especially how the bones scatter and lie on the ground. It would be awesome if those same bones could reassemble into a new enemy skeleton, ha, ha. The female character is very well-designed in 3D, and the game overall is fantastic. I'm left wanting to know more about the lore because the setting is incredible. Great game!

Graphics look really cool! Are they self-made?

I really liked the graphics ! Maybe the skeletons should be of an other colour, because it's hard to make the difference between them and the bones that we shoot

It is so satisfying to shoot in your game!

Despite the fact the game is pretty small, it polished very well. Player controller is smooth and responsive, particles and sound effects are very good, and the art style is just impressive for that short time.

I really would like to see the future updates with weapon upgrades and other progressions.
Congratulations on the completion of the jam! Good job!

A good classical shooter. I love the hundred projectiles dropped that stay on the ground.
It's hard to aim, it miss feedback when the player and enemies take damages.

Super satisfying loop with super simple mechanics. Loved playing it.

@larazofia Yep! It was the main focus for me this jam to see if I could make a devent looking character game in time. All assets(models, textures, animations) were made from scratch for this. Only graphics we didn't make was the font.

@stowy Yeah, good idea.

The game is quite fun, but there is no enough explanation for what is happening in the game itself and the opponents behind are not well visible, so you will get a punch although you run away and I liked the texture with the effect of the rainbow on the bone, finally it's a wonderful game :>

Love the visual style, the models for both the player and the enemies are very clean. The feel of the player character is nice too. Would have loved a little more to the gameplay as it felt quite easy to just kite the skeletons for 60 seconds, but what is there feels super good. Great work!

The game could be very interesting if further developed, perhaps by adding character upgrades as you level up. I find it to be an excellent starting point to create something nice. Graphically, it's very well done. Congratulations, guys!

Good shooting sensations! It would have been nice to have other objectives or not be limited by time to achieve our best score but by our ability to survive.

Amazing sound; it's so catchy that I can't get it out of my mind. I'm not sure whether to thank you for that... The game is really fun overall, especially launching thousands of bones! Well done!

and YES, definitly this head can be a meme
