hey guys html5 export in gamemaker is broken so no browser game :(((((
just finished playing the demo. Please keep this up for more people to see. It reminds me of retro top down games. I agree a browser port for people to play would help encourage people to do a play. I hope you continue to update it! - Fortunes
hey there
back when someone suggested i do a browser port a while back, i couldn't because i would've needed a really expensive monthly subscription to export the game like that, however now its all been changed and almost everything except console exports are completely free in gamemaker, so i might do it
make it browser and i rate a play idoit
no
I played a little in your game and what can I say. She's cool, but lacks dynamism. I can just stand and shoot. She also seems to be slow. the level scale fills up for a very long time and you don’t want to replay the level after death, if you almost passed it.
Thanks for the feedback! Some elements of the game are changing over time so most things will work differently in the future. Bugs and issues like the game being slow will be fixed at some point. If you think the game is too slow or boring, i recommend higher difficulties for now. Either way the levels are intended to be long as areas wont have tons of levels (only like 8 for garbage disposal area)
old logo made on paint.net.. dont question it
