I cant process why this hq game is free unnoticed lost in the itch library of games haven't tried it yet but just by the looks and all I am sure it will be a blast
edit: also is this a team or solo dev?

Hi! Sorry for the delay, and thanks for your comment!
Yes, we're a team :) We hope you've been able to try it out since then, let us know what you thought!

yes I did try it I think the ui can take a little more work? and I dont get it why is the max limit of round time 180 seconds and minimum is litreally 30 seconds also do you guys got a discord server you should make one and also why is there a qrcode on the top left of the screen? and why is this game free not complaining but everything feels really good even this page so I really want to know why this is free lol just curious and if you got a  discord server I would love to join there can be a tutorial maybe and things can be a little more clear why are there random robots coming to kill you I havent tried multiplayer yet but I would love to talk more about this game if you got a discord 

Thank you for the feedback, it's really useful!
The UI is our current big effort in development, and it's getting some nice updates soon 😁

We decided to have a list of options for round time to make it easier to start playing. From our testing, 30 seconds was the minimum for a good experience, and since we wanted to give a fast-paced and varied experience, we believe that 2m30s was enough.

We don't have a Discord server right now, as we're still trying to build our community! Once we see we have a good number of followers we'll do that :)

The QR code is for smartphone players to be able to join! As long as you're on the same network, you can read the QR code on your phone (with Google Lens, for example) and it will show you a webpage for a player controller 🎮 The tutorial will definitely help with these questions, we hope to get one ready soon. Give it a try if you can!

We're exploring a lot of things in this game, and AI bots are one of them! So you can have AI playerbots that behave as a real player would (some more aggressive, others more defensive...). But these are optional and can be used for smaller groups of people or single players. There are also the enemies, like the squids and cart enemies, which are there to make the game more challenging (and chaotic!).

We're happy to hear that the game and our page look good! We're going to keep working on this game for some bigger releases and one day add a price to it when we're ready.

Keep following our updates, and we'd love to get your thoughts in the future too!
