I love the graphics, the pixel art mix with those realistic lights and shadows works very well. And the generator animation was really cool.
My problem is the gameplay, I didn't encounter an enemy until like 2 minutes in. I encounter like an elevator but I couldn't find out how to interact with it.
The other problem is the theme. I guess you could say you're sacrificing energy to shoot, but then you regain it at the generator. So I think it's a long stretch.
In any way, I think it was a really solid entry. Great Job!!!
(For the Gameplayissues: You need to pull the batteries, which you find around the map, to your generator and load them. Then put them into the Loadingstations and BadUUUMMMMZZZ its activated XD)
please excuse my englisch.. :yum: :gun: XD
Enemies are encountered after like 2 minutes, I was actually exploring - but couldn't interact with anything. And suddenly my reactor power goes down. Oh darn, running half map back to find out that I'm done for.
Congratulations on making a game!
Hope to see more of you next jam! Cheers.
However, I did enjoy the graphical theme of the game. The art was well done. The controls (I used keyboard and mouse) were also well done and worked as expected. The shadow effect was also very well done.
I liked shooting the ghosts, and the enviroment was really spooky!

During the playthrough I got abit confused on what to do, so I just shot ghosts sorry :sweat_smile:
A possible quick fix would be highlighting that I needed to find the battery in game, so I could have understood what to do easier - although I should have just read the description more closely :sob:
For a bigger update, possibly having more mecahnics that use electricity, a dash or maybe even charging up a shot to fire (big radius, piercing etc) :yum:
