Jack-o-Night is about going through and keeping the jack-o-lanterns lit whilst avoiding enemies. This game was brought upon some desire to throw a game together in 5 days. There are some bugs surely, like enemies getting stuck or the gun double-firing or the player getting destroyed instantly when a large group attacks. I tried to balance a little, but it frankly needed a bunch more time in that regard.

To get points the player must either eliminate enemies or light unlit jack-o-lanterns, to do the later they must interact with it. The door to the house can be interacted with once the target score is reached to end the night and open a shop interface.

There are slight controls set for a gamepad, but I was unable to  playtest with one myself so having one plugged in might just completely break the controls :) (sorry)

This project started on Oct 26th. Had a fun time playing around with the terrain object and tried out some different approaches to systems that I'm unsure if I'll reuse.

Have fun, post your scores, Happy Halloween!

Updated to add a Sensitivity slider, its janky, just pauseunpause to set the value.

also made surfaces more slippery
