Sacrificial Ammunition by Cenoon
Sacrificial Ammunition is a survival shooter that has you up against an infinite hoard of red enemies. You start with a magazine full of 5 bullets. In order to reload another 5, you must spend 10% of your HP. Avoid taking damage and make every shot count in order to take down enemies. Enemies may drop health pickups to replenish your health. How long can you last? (Full-screen for best results)
Best played on the Windows version, but I've included a WebGL version if you don't want to download anything.
This is my first game, as well as my first Ludum Dare entry :smile:

My highscore was 53 but I felt like I was forced to loose by randomness. Every shot was a hit and enemies just didn't drop enough hp. :D One thing I didn't understand: Why choose an AK as a 5 bullet gun? Still, I had fun playing it.
Oh and the arena looks very familiar. ;)
The randomness was something I added to make the game not feel like it lasts forever, although I do agree it can feel bad to lose due to a random drop chance. I tried a few different versions of healing, such as every shot healing back 5% hp or similar and felt that the random drops felt the most balanced in my opinion.
Thanks all again!! Wonderful feedback
Good job !
