Drop of life by dusterherz
Two students in animation and one developer (and not game developer !) decided to co-op for this ludum dare and created Drop of life !

The goal of this game is simple, there is a pillar that give you some drop of life. These drops are your life so you have to protect this pillar from the monsters that come to destroy it.
For that, you can just kill them with a basic attack (button 1 or space) or you can use some skills but if you do this, you have to pay with your drops of life (button 2 or f for shield and button 3 or shift for dash) So be aware of your life and defend your pillar 🙂!

This prototype has only one infinite round of enemies just to get a feeling of the game :v: . In the future we want to add multiples round with more difficult enemies and boss :muscle: !

~~He heard you for the problem with the keys ! We are looking to change it ;). Also we are looking to add a new wave of enemies for more fun and testing :v: !~~ The new inputs has been edited for more comfort ! Moreover, the monster spawner has been fixed :tada: ! They now spawn infinitely for more joy (and quicker and quicker)

**Update -> Ad-Blocker seems to block it haha**
It's just unfortunate that there isn't hitbox (I'm looking for defaults ;))
After a short amount of time there aren't any enemies spawning and it would be really nice to play the game with arrow keys or use the special effects with numpad since I had to lay my hand on my other hand to play the game. (WASD + number keys) :sweat_smile:
The spawn is now infinite for more enjoyment and some inputs has been added / modified to get a better feeling o/
ENJOY :video_game:
PS : We are really touched by all your commentaries :heart:
You made very cool graphics there. Music is also nice.
I've enjoyed running around and trying to kill those slimes, but it annoyed when I had to press keys again to move after attack.
Great job and hope you'll improve it further! :wink:
EDIT: I see now that the music was royalty free from a youtube channel. Did one of the developers make this? If not, you should really remove yourself from the audio category as you didn't make any of it yourself.
I did not appreciate the loss of visibility behind the pillars and I did not really find any usefulness to the dash as all the enemies went to the same place.
The project is really cool congratulations.
Enjoyed this one a lot, art is great, music is awesome. Plays smooth also.
Please allow controls for non WASD players, not everyone haves a QWERTY keyboard :)
Great Job
and that abilities costs health was a nice use of the theme! Using the shield is quite situational, which i like. Only thing thats missing is sound effects, but it didn't bother me much. Well done!
Overall great job!! Would definitely like to see some more content
