Nice aesthetic! Bit too hard though, those guys are basically aimbots. Also guns don't drop every time?
@Cherno
Thanks for the feedback. The enemies are a bit tricky, although initially they literally were aimbots, it was terrifying.
Guns should drop everytime if they are carrying a gun, but sometimes enemies pick up guns. There also might be a bug, it's not unlikely.
A bit hard, had to trick some of them to shoot their comrades. Very good use of shadows.
Really like this one. The spy vs. spy aesthetic is great, and the silhouettes are animated in a way that gives them a lot of character. The gameplay is also very fun, gives you a little bit of a ninja feeling hopping around and shanking these guys. I wish you could knife someone before you use your gun, though, so you can save the shot for a tougher opponent to reach. The green level is really hard!
One bug: the level after the green level, where an enemy spawns semi-randomly in the level after you kill each one gets stuck for me about halfway through, so I can't beat it.
Great work incorporating the theme. Its quite gratifying to clear a level. Walk animations are awesome too.
Feels a little odd that the enemies can shoot at angles, while you cannot.
I saw a .gif of this one the front-page a while back, it's great to see the full game. The mechanic is good, it captures the theme and it is fun.
I got stuck in some room half way and in between levels I wasn't quite sure what was going on. But...I enjoyed the gameplay and aesthetics. I think I enjoyed stabbing more than shooting anyways. ;)
I was able to press enter to reload the gun? Not sure if that is intended but it was very fun to play.
@ParaPup
Enter to reload was not intended, and that's a silly glitch.
Enter is mapped to the second player's gun, and when you're on a single player level I just move the second player far away. The thing is, in multiplayer firing a bullet gives the other play a bullet, and it still works when you're in single player apparently.
I love the menu - it feels really slick. I enjoyed the stealth mechanic of figuring out how to sneak up on the enemies. It would be nice to be able to use the knife before the gun too, to make it more of a choice than just having to shoot the first enemy each time.
Like the arena battle style. Nice visuals, though a bit more of a cue on which one YOU are would go nicely. Great start, implement some ricochets and you're in business.
Love the graphics, but animations / jumping could be a little bit better. Overall it's nice and solid entry.
Nice mood, i realy like the shadow style. It's a bit hard to NOT spam the fire button, like in every other game ^^
Yo, I liked it, there's potential in this game. If you wanna continue this game, you should first add some feedbacks/screenshake/effects to make the gameplay smoother and have a better feeling. Wunna see more :D
Intresting idea, the gameplay is pretty good and the level selection too. But i didn't like the controls because i have an Azerty keyboard (gotta change the lang).
Brilliant! And I thought the difficulty was just right. Really beautiful game (in general, not visually - the characters are nice, but the rest could be a little more detailled/varied). Challenging and highly motivating gameplay. I basically ignored the guns most of the time and tried to backstab everybody. One of the very few games that get 5 fun stars from me. :)
the silhouettes are nice, but the gameplay doesn't seem there. Sounded like you had a good idea though
Reminds me of TF2 Spy.

There is this series on Youtube that can help you greatly with the 2d platformer on Unity. Hope this helps.
Controls feel pretty good and I like the fast pace of movement and firing. It would be nice if I could move on to the next level instead of moving out to the main menu. Nice work.
Nice concept, great entry ! We were 2 playing it and it's quite fun. We had troubles to know which character is our and there is too much spawn kill possible with the multiplayer map. But we had a lot of fun anyway ! Nice job.
The concept actually looks like ours, but the result is really different.
Fun play style and satisfying kill physics. I did get stuck on a 2 player level at the end. I kill him 5 times and then that was it. Great work!
AI is easy to trick since they stop paying attention to you if you leave they horizontal 'sight' though, but it's okay.
but just jumping around stubbing everyone is great. good job.
Nice! Mechanically, it's so much more interesting than the other "one bullet" games made for this competition because the enemies only have one shot as well. I really appreciate that.
On the menu screen, I first tried to click on the arrow ... Then I read your comment :p
Very cool graphics, the game is really cool. It would be really cool too if we can switch to a knife instead of loosing our gun each time

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.
Good use of the theme
