Ah well as far as life goes its the old school rule of one hit and you're dead. Could have done a score though since I'm keeping track of numbers internally anyway to determine the various win conditions.
Your player will visible change slowly as you kill more though so that should work in your favor of a score of a sense if killing is your goal.
Nice and simple. Maybe a score or how many lives you have remaining would be nice.
There's a nice subtle theme here.
The overt dialog at the end isn't necessary. The game is just a tad buggy - I had to restart once. Enjoyed playing though.
It took way too long for me to figure out that control was to fire. Space or up arrow might have been a better chance, maybe even all three?
As a suggestion, perhaps the hitboxes on the enemies are too big. It seemed like I could sit in one place and spam fire and survive indefinitely.
I really liked the way the colors changed and the player seemed to get more black, as the enemies go more white. Like you were becoming more evil as you killed more.
Deep. Fight violence with violence, and you become the thing you hate.
It's nice, but it kinda makes you wonder: Is Unity really needed for such a simple game? :P
Wow interesting twist! I think you should make it keep shooting when you hold fire rather then making so you need to repress it every time.
It's a bit too easy when you shoot constantly from the same position. Also, a score system would be nice. Good job with finishing your entry. ;)
I like that on the web page you put up two screenshots of this.
Haha! I finally stopped them all! But at what cost?! D:
Well, it took me a few minutes time and some furious clicking. Not too high a price to pay at all! Fun little game, very... very minimalist! :)
i couldn't rate this game , never opened to me even reinstalling the WebPlayer

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
I wish there would be some indicator showing score/life
