A downloadable game for Windows

Created for the GMTK Game Jam 2018 where the theme was Genre without a Mechanic, where you take away something intrinsic to the genre to force yourself to figure out different ways of providing the same equivalent feature set.

In this game, you will lower your gun when pointing at the enemies and can't shoot while doing so, however your bullets bounce around the room.

I had a lot of problems about half-way through development and had to cut several planned ideas and simplify things a lot...

Yes, we both were waiting for the jam, but I don't get why you responded the way you did, if left a majorly sour taste in my mouth. You essentially told me "forget the fact that you have a life outside your computer and just focus on this project real-life stuff isn't a valid excuse". I tried unblocking you to send some more clarification messages to you, but it looks like you blocked me or something as well so, oh well. I'm sorry I wasn't able to find much time at this point yet to have gotten much work done, and you may have misunderstood what I said or misinterpreted how I said it, but the response I got was not cool to me. If you wish to try making amends I'm not opposed, but you came off as very imposing and scary when these things are supposed to be fun.
