Our challenge was to create awesome 3d models and try cinemachine for unity
Gameplay
Craft flusk from items, shoot evil cube bosses and win this unlosable battle against evil ones.
Controls
WASD + Mouse - move and look
LMB - take items
RMB (press) + LMB - shoot
MMB - change shooting mode (ingredients or crafted bullets)
Texture for floor is from cinemamachine unity package
Tools
- Unity
- Maya
- Cinema4D
- Photoshop
Team
Vladimir Rotterdamsky - code, gamedesign
Sasha Popov - 3d models
Margarita Popov - icons, inspiration of Sasha
Known bugs
Order of shooting is random - so you will have fun.
Items will be respawn if they will fly outside of map
If you can't shoot try to press middle mouse button or take items - icons positions are incorrect sometimes.

There is a special button to show help window again )
But I totally agree with you that my "random inventory" mechanics didn't work great.
We wanted to create really dynamic game and I think we made it but controls sucks (because we made a big pivot on sunday morning with controls and they became obsolete =( )
Without losing there is no challenge. Without challenge there is no fun. This is a job: collect these things, create these potions, throw them at the evil cubes! Rince and repeat…
The controls are weird. Movement feels sluggish and off due to the odd animations; randomly tossing out items is weird too; and toggling between the different modes isn't telegraphed well. You have to press the right button everytime you wish to throw something for instance, holding it down doesn't work. Throwing could just be on a different key. At least there is a little icon in the corner for the slingshot mode.
The graphics aren't that great either. Everything is flatshaded. There is ample detail in the main character, but the textures do bring it down too. The bosses take the cake of course. Who doesn't like cubes!?
You did a thing in a weekend, that is commendable. Unfortunately there is no category for effort.

Interesting game. I included it in my Alakajam #1 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/wEu1KZRTQq8
I really tried, but I struggled. The pop up text was too quick to read, but I did find it again in the menu. Wasn't sure how to use the items I collected. Kinda spammed keys and threw the items back at something, got some potions at the bottom of the screen but then didnt know what to do with them. equipped some slingshot, noticed I could hold and target looked as if I was going to shoot… but then nothing seemed to happen. I even tried to suicide, and that didn't work - it just respawned me next to cube of fury. I wanted out :(
