Jackpot Buckshot
Made for GMTK Jam 2020. Theme is 'out of control'.
Imagine having a machine that can fill your buckshot bullet with various effects ?
Except that machine is actually a slot machine. You only have little control over what kind of effect your bullet will be, but that's where the fun comes from.
Controls :
- WASD - Switch highlighted column and row in the slot machine
- Mouse - Target enemy
- LMB - Shoot
- R - Respin slot machine
- Esc - Pause
Here is a Cheat Sheet on the slot mechanics. (Will update this into the game when the rating period is over)

The game became out of control at some point during the development. There might be some bugs I didn't know and I believe that some of the bullets are also behaving weirdly. Kindly tell me if you find one.
Any critique and suggestions is very welcome.
Thanks for playing

Very interesting concept! I've enjoyed very much how the WASD was used to move the rows and columns. At some point I've started to ignore completely the mechanic and went straight up clicking the enemies, I think the punishment for missing things should be more dangerous, because I've went very far without doing the mechanic at all (wave 25).
In any case, the idea is great and art is incredible, congratulations!
Wow, I never managed to reach that far.
Thank you for the feedback and glad you enjoyed the game
This is a great concept, the game is relly missing some audio though
Thank you. Yeah, whenever I participate a jam, I never had enough time to include any audio. I will focus on the presentation for the next update
