Sacre bleur! Those stinky sunburnt English types are invading France yet again! Defend the Republique's honour from those sweaty ham-looking meatheads - we're fighting down to the last baguette.

CONTROLS: Press / hold left click to aim + zoom, release to fire.

Update 20/03/24 notes:

  • Waves now increase in difficulty
  • Added sound effects and particle effects
  • Simple score counter added
  • Bug fixes

Next update I'll try and add in some dynamic dialogue, weapon cooldown, powerups, fix the problem with buses drifting backwards, etc etc

BLURB:

A pre-pre-pre-pre-alpha Deluxe Edition unfinished proto-prototype of a brutal baguette slinger. 

Produced for Lame Jam's Bread theme over the course of 2ish days. It was a super educational experience and my first ever jam!

It's got a built-in wave spawner which is supposed to make things get super hectic and difficult, but I didn't have time to work this out. Other half-finished features include particle effects, fun dialogue, explosions, blood, general mayhem, powerups, etc. If I hadn't lost 8 hours of productivity to a Cinemachine problem wormhole I might've been able to get further with them (turns out it's quite hard to get a virtual camera to follow a virtual baguette at high velocity).

The game features a number of free to use and royalty free assets. Once I sleep I'll try to get some full credits together for later versions. Additionally, I couldn't have done this without the help of some great YouTube tutors, who I'd also like to thank... when I have sleep in my body.

It might be a lame game, but I learned a lot. Highlights: crying at Cinemachine, begging ChatGPT to fix my compiler errors, making the gammony NPCs and the double decker bus in Blender, firing approximately 5,000,000 baguettes into the ether.
