Why the game is unavailable on Android? I already bought this game long time ago and now i can't download it anymore
Hello, the game seems unavailable on Android! Is that true ?
Ohhhh..it's like Downwell...which is one of the best games to play on ios...I'm in.
The game is awesome !
can you add the android download to the itch page?
Pretty please, this would be very nice of you
This game is amazing, especially on mobile. Wasn't there an update that was announced like two years ago on Twitter? I could be wrong.
DOES work on Steam Deck, ONLY if you edit the launch options to "Force the use of a specific Compatability tool" and set it to "Proton: Experimental."
Hey, love the game so much, everything is so well executed, from the enemies to the weapons and the movement. I've only gotten to floor 4 (on easy, normal is HARD), I want to get bit further and also maybe try and kill the shopkeeper :) Lately I've come across this error
EDIT [FIXED]
Delete the local setting.sav file.

Can you provide an Android APK directly to itch that doesn’t require Google Play Services? I specifically buy games from itch.io to avoid that.
+1
The timing for blocking is so weird. I always feel like I hit it at the right time and take damage anyway. I want to like the game but every damage I take feels cheap. I've put many hours into the game so it's not inexperience.
I got good at it. There is a circle around, wait until the projectile is IN the circle.
Good game. I thought it was impossible before I realised you could block. I'm rubbish at timing stuff nowadays but I was able to beat it on easy, which is good enough for me.
Great Game :)
I love the little sprites in the game ^^
heya! I was wondering if you have a sprite dump available (or just public sprites for use in general)
Im making a fangame based off of this and I was wondering if i could use some of the official enemy sprites for it
im guessing you might be able to tell the what OTHER game its a fangame of based off this
I assume I can't get it for free on android even though I got it here?
I love all of it. Well done!
I'm expecting some mods from you then! And I actually have been working on the update recently:) It'll still take a bit longer, but I'm getting closer!
It's very fun, although the difficulty scaling isn't great.
the difficulty scaling is better in normal mode than in easy
Combat is unique and fun. When I saw it was rogue"lite" I'd hoped that meant upgrades would persist between runs, would prefer if they did personally, but I get it's not what the devs were going for.
Since I got the game through Itch, is there anyway to get a code to download through the Android Play store? If not, no worries!
There isn't, I looked into it before cuz I thought that'd be cool but unfortunately there's no way to bundle the different store versions:(
Dang, this really is a fun game. The only thing it's missing is an endless mode because I don't wanna stop playing. Great game.
Thank you!:) I'm glad you like it! Endless mode is something I've floated around as an idea for an update, I'm not really sure how it would work. But maybe!
This game is perfect, I immediately bought it on ios and I am fully addicted. Fantastic work!
Hehe thank you I'm glad you like it:)
I'm not sure if this is the best place for this but I haven't really found a better method so far.
Anyway, this game is flagged as a virus when I try to run it. I get the first warning when I install the game, which is not too alarming, as Windows can be a bit finicky with software it doesn't properly recognize.
However Panda Antivirus completely shuts down any attempt to start the game and claims it has neutralized something called W32/Exploit.gen. What is going on here?
Woah, that's super weird! I've heard people have issues on OSx because of how Apple is with software distributed outside of the App Store, but I've never had anyone have an issue like what you're describing. I did a little searching online for "W32/Exploit.gen" and I think that must just be a false alarm from your antivirus, since I promise my game is definitely not a virus haha I'm not sure why it's being flagged though.
After digging deeper it does indeed look like it is a false alarm.
BTW, this is a nice little game and I quite enjoy it. For some reason it reminds me a bit of Downwell and that is not a bad thing to be compared to. :)
Yay, I'm glad you were able to play it and enjoy it!:) Downwell was a huge inspiration, when I started making the game I was like "what if Downwell was turn-based?" and that's what led to this game haha
You have to sign the game so Windows & Mac dont send user warning. I looked into it for my game and it seems like a pain. If you end up finding an easy way to sign the game let me know. "Digital certificates are used to establish the identity of the author." This might be how you do it, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/dxtecharts/authenticode-signing-...
When you upload to steam I think it doe sit for you. Would be great if Itch had some system like that.
a nicely made, fun little game!
Thank you:)
I think i'll have to buy this for ios too.
Great work!
Thank you for the support!:) I think it's best on iOS tbh haha
It says Gun Rounds is damaged and can't be opened. :( I'm on Mac OS Monterey is that the problem?
I found out from another itch.io comment that if you use a different ZIP utility (such as p7zip) to extract the game, it will run once you bypass the security protection for executing an unsigned binary. If you use homebrew, you can just "brew install p7zip" and then "7z x Gun Rounds OSx.zip" or use an actual installer.
Hopefully the other commenter's solution helped, but if not, you could also try the instructions here: https://help.yoyogames.com/hc/en-us/articles/216753558-Mac-app-damaged-when-down...
Long story short, it's an issue because Apple doesn't really like software being distributed outside of their App Store >:(
You have to sign the game so people don't get this warning. "Digital certificates are used to establish the identity of the author." But IDK a quick easy way to do it. If you end up doing it please let me know how.
I played this game a long time ago but never gave feedback.
Like everything you make this game is amazing. You are a great inspiration to many people.
One day I want to make games as amazing as yours.
keep it up my friend! <3
Thank you so much for your kind words my friend, they really mean a lot to me!<3 It is a true honor!:)
The honor is that we can have your games, keep making these masterpieces!
Love u XD
I got this via the Bundle for Ukraine and so far, it's my favorite game out of the entire package. It's such a simple concept but it's executed so well! Amazing work!
Thank you!!:) I'm glad you like my game!
My first two tries I didn't even get to the shop then on my 3rd try I beat the game!
Amazing game! Thank you!
Haha that is some serious improvement. Thank you for playing:)
will this be on steam?
Probably not tbh, but who knows!
even months later this is still fantastic
rly excited for the eventual big update :D
Thank you so much, I'm glad you like it:) I'm excited too!!
What game engine/ framework did you use to make this cool ass game, that pixel work is so impressive!
Thank you!:) I'm so glad you like the game and my art! I made the game in Gamemaker Studio 2, and if you were curious, I made the art using Aseprite. Two very solid programs!
i bought this game yesterday on android and it's awesome, kinda reminds me of downwell but its a turn-based game and i love the soundtrack too :)
Thank you so much!:) Downwell was definitely the main inspiration for the game, I was wondering what Downwell would be like if it was turn-based.
Hi, I bought the game on IOS a couple of days ago and it's a blast! I was wondering if you'd be able to post the game's OST somewhere, whether it be Spotify or Soundcloud or Bandcamp.
Hey thanks for buying my game, I'm glad you're enjoying it!:) The soundtrack is actually all creative commons music, and someone put together a Youtube playlist of all the songs a while ago which you can play here! It actually looks like one song got removed, but I'm guessing that's the Gehenna song which is mostly just scary noises anyway lol
Hey, I know why! I'm guessing you're probably using the zip file Mac version? If so, you'll have to follow these instructions here to get it to work on your computer. The game isn't actually corrupted, it's just that Macs aren't nice to games that aren't downloaded through their app store unfortunately. Sorry about that! It's possible that the .dmg version won't give you that error and you won't have to do any extra steps, but I don't know for sure.
hi, I bought the bundle for Ukraine, and found this game. and something goes wrong, either the zip file or .dmg doesn't work on my m1 MacBook Air. I have no idea what's going and I'd really like to play this masterpiece.
Man, this game is awesome! Do i need to buy it second time to play on android if i bought it here?
Thank you!:) yes you do, I would bundle the purchases if I could but as far as I know there's no way to do that. But I appreciate your support!
Can't you just include the apk file as a download? I would love to play on my phone
wow...
my game just died

Woah wtf?? I have no idea what that error message is supposed to mean lol. When did this happen? Were you able to start the game up again and play normally?
Hahaha yeah that would do it! You should probably expect a crash or two if you're playing in debug mode, it wasn't really meant for normal play
Is it itended that left click spawns lil dudes that can be farmed for intense amounts of combo and money?
Yeah it is actually!
But no lol it is not. Are you playing the latest version?
I bought the pc version and it only happened on first launch, but when i closed the game it didn't work anymore
Hm, weird! Well I guess as long as it's working normally now haha. No idea what would've caused that
