Conquer and Consume by Nilq

[raw]
made by Nilq for LD32 (JAM)
--=== Conquer and Consume ===--

In Gingerbread-land, bullets does not work. Yet, you have taken it upon yourself to carry out the first gun-massacre. Even if it means you will have to throw them.
But the mute inhabitants of this sugary land will not go down without fighting, so be prepared to face the hordes, eating the fallen for health and ammo.
Conquer and Consume!

Love the fact that you throw the flintlock. Totally fits the theme. :D Would have loved to have some background music or something, even if it was really simple. The source of the throw above the head made it difficult to hit guys right in front of me.

I love the fact that you use a conventional weapon in an unconventional way. I would never have thought of that.

Fun game! I was overrun by all the gingerbread men. They were raining down on me. :)

Throwing the gun is a really fun idea!
But the game is REALLY hard
Because of the quantity of enemies after about just 1 minute!
Also after eating the enemy I have eyes floating in the sky, which is kind of creepy, but pretty funny

I really like the world you created, looks awesome!
Its just sometimes a little bit tricky to throw the weapons because you can just throw them when you're not moving.

Hard to kill, those things. Throwing flintlock, always a smart solution. Design is nice.

neat idea. you kina throw the weapon too high which makes you look more to the ground and not watch the enemies AND the weapon itself is not unconventional you just use it differently, but over all, neat game. you made a first person thrower

Yes, throwing the gun is a god idea. The enemies are terrifying with their big eyes!

Very nice, I liked it already when you showed it at Isotop. Well done!

What I like about the game is the graphics and the solid controls. The game idea is also good, but the mechanics could have been polished a bit more. Right now you're just getting surrounded by gingerbread men until you die, or get tired.
So from a technical perspective this is an outstanding effort! But I think you could have focused a bit less tech a bit and used more time iterating on the actual gameplay.
Still an impressive entry, and I hope to see you guys again! With more awesome games! I whish you all the best!

nice idea - way too hard - controls were hard - nice effort
