Murder On The Dancefloor by CustomPhase

[raw]
made by CustomPhase for LD27 (COMPO)
Music driven top-down shooter with random elements. Very fast paced. Pretty gory.
p.s. You need to kill boss in under 10 seconds or youll lose.

Known issues (fixed in post compo builds):
- Sometimes you will lose after defeating the boss.
- In this build, shield visual effect (can be seen on screenshot) is absent, although its still gives you an 8 sec period of invincibility.
- Crates can (and will) disappear while game is paused.

Haha! Game over! I suck! Neat game! A little more feedback from shooting would go far! Thankfully I don't have seizures though ;)

Awesome lil' game. I like the design of the characters, they remind me a little of Russian dolls. The music is great, gameplay is fun - lovely entry :)

Wow, I could play this game for hours!
The evolution of the music with the game is very well done, the graphic style is lovely. It's just a bit too short...

Wow! I really liked the blackouts as a way to introduce new waves. The gibbing was satisfying, and the blocky rectangle character shapes were charming. The music was fantastic. Awesome game.

Doesn't adhere to the theme that much, but bloody hell is this game a lot of fun. The mood was nice and the music lovely. Well done man.

Wow. The way the visuals and the music played together really took this to another level! Fantastic! Feels really polished!

I found it to hard, but that might just be me "sucking" as the game suggested ;)

Wow, this is really good. Presentation is fantastic. I was desperate for a slightly better weapon as my pea-shooter chipped away at an ever-swelling horde, maybe I just didn't get the right pick-up. Great job on this.

Ohh, whar a rude GameOver screen ._.
Really liked the fact that the lighting follow the music. Maybe if some enemies moved following the tune the result should be awesome!
