Wholesome Slaughter

This one was a surprise. Actually quite a fun little game that plays very well. Absolutely worth the 99 cents if you're looking for a good game to blast through in an hour or so.

Nope. Core combat works but the level design seems to go from bad to worse. And most importantly I've run out of all ammo twice now, on level 2 and 3 respectively. I've already been trying to conserve ammo, go for headshots, never miss etc, and yet I run out of ammo on ALL weapons. Which means I have to voluntarily die and restart since I don't have a melee weapon and neither can I proceed until all the enemies in the room are dead. I imagine I probably missed some secrets but it's not appealing to explore the extremely dull and dark environments. I feel like I'm always several ammo boxes away from being able to progress to the next level at all. Also had an instance where an enemy died but his sprite froze in place and it never registered that he's actually dead (game won't let me proceed further) so there's another softlock.

This game, while only being under a dollar, actually has some high quality gameplay. There doesn't appear to be any major game breaking glitches and the flow of gameplay makes it incredibly enjoyable. Overall, this game is definitely worth its price.

Decent old school fps but it definitly has some flaws. For example it doesnt have quick saves, only checkpoints, enemy hitboxes are a bit too small, the shotgun is too weak, the graphics look more like minecraft than like a 90s fps and it is quite short. BUT it costs less than a buck, so for that price it is definitly recommended.

This is pretty good. it's a pretty cheap doom like game but it's a pretty good one. the art styles nice, I'd recomend it

Gunplay feels good and the campaign is fun. Short, but easily worth the 80p it costs. Though the final boss was very frustrating and did put a bit of a dampener on the experience. Overall, I really enjoyed it. Also helps that there is a wave survival mode to extend the replay value.

Speedrunning this game was an absolute blast, I found a ton of skips which brought the time down from 20 minutes to less than 7 minutes and it was one of the most fun speedrunning journeys I ever had. 🦄

Fun little game that you can finish in less than an hour, plus it has an arena mode that adds to it's value. Worth the dollar lol

Surprisingly fun for under a buck. In future installments or projects I think ammo either needs to be more abundant or the mechanic for generating more needs to be a bit more interesting.

This game redefines the concept of a run and gun game. The amount of detail that was put into the character designs is clear to see. This is the perfect game to let out a bit of anger and just kill wave after wave of adorable creatures that want you kill you. This game has something for everyone! Hidden secrets, great battle music, Beautiful designed levels, a great story. 10/10 and 100% worth the small investment to get a game that will keep you entertained for days on end.

Fun, short, simple, cutesy yet violent. Also cheap. Just grab if you like shooters and want a fun little time waster =D Be warned though; Final Boss is kinda broken and bugged unfortunately.

This game changed my LIFE. Doom is one of my all time favorite games and I've loved Doom for as long as I can remember. I also love cute things. If you take Doom and cute and put them together, what do you get? Wholesome Slaughter. The sound design is also on point. Tell as friend, a friend's friend, your grandma, whoever ...10/10 would recommend!!

DOOM on a budget. Seriously, pricetag aside it's a really well made title that manages to be both charming and fluent with it's combat and gameplay loop - and that's putting aside how satisfying it all is from top to bottom, especially the sound design & soundtrack.

As a man with slightly more than my fair share of hours on this marvelous experience, I believe I am one whomst beholdth the adequate knowledge to place a well thought out and honest review on this product. As previously stated, I have quite the record playing this game...and that is for a meritorious reason! This game...this formulation of bits and bytes of data, has amounted to even more than I ever thought possible in this feckless existence of ours. It has risen within me a purpose...a will to live. God blesseth this divine creation for the merits it has brought to my life...HUZZAH I SAY!! ...however, my sweet and loving tongue has haste turned sour after discovering the secrets hidden beneath the assuaging exterior of this "so called" video game. As are most satanic revelations that exist within this world, "Wholesome Slaughter™" bears an immense evil masked under the cute and welcoming nature of innocence. It does not bring me even a sliver of joy to bring you this message, but as Proverbs 28:13 says: "He who conceals his transgressions will not prosper, But he who confesses and forsakes them will find compassion." It is my God given duty to expose this evil and bring this injustice to light. While the product itself may be a gift of God, the business practices of those at the top of the development of this product has been tainted by the devil himself. The CEO of this game has been brought up on some substantial charges. One such brave employee of his has come out and voiced the CEO's transgressions against him. Out of privacy and confidentiality I will keep this employees name a secret and instead refer to him as Billiam. Upon joining the team, Billiam was promised certain dental insurances. But to his forlorn disgust, when the time came for Billiam to cash in on his dental policy, the CEO of the company would go against his word and NOT brush Billiams pearly white teeth. What was once a brilliant white has soon become a shade similar to ivory as a result of broken promises and sinful practices. How pitiful. To this day Billiam has yet had his teeth brushed by the CEO and to add insult to injury, the CEO himself stands by this sentiment. I urge all who read to look inward toward themselves and think, what's worth more...my short term enjoyment...or my lifelong dignity. I will leave you at that. Keep your purchases holy, and may God bless you all. Amen

Good effort. The theme makes me grin. Made by students so go in with the according level of expectation. It takes about an hour to beat. More than worth the nothing it costs on sale... but not sure I'd want to pay full price given that I can get the same gameplay but better by downloading some 10 year old's first classic Doom map. Next time you kids release your ghetto Doom 2016-inspired first year college project (literally) as a Steam game, let me rebind my keys yeah? Shotgun at 2, wtf. It's 3 and it should always be 3. And ffs, bugtest your games! I've fallen through the map twice and been softlocked by a bear that got stuck between an alive and dead state, all within an hour of play. The simpler your game is, and this is VERY simple, the less excusable bugs are. That being said, it does most of the right things for what it is, and combat is suitably challenging. Enjoyable, but not without some issues such as occasional bugs and level design problems... there needs to be more landmarks and texture variety.

Recommended: - Good game! - Old-school fun! - Competently made! *The fairy boss sucks major balls however, lol. Med-kits eventually run out or bug-out -- either way it's too hard. : )

fun gunplay and charming pixel art, but the platforming is abysmal and it's not very well balanced when it comes to ammunition. you're basically dead if you run out of ammo, and the first level of chapter two does not drop much ammo. the devil advocate here might say, "maybe there are some secrets where you can scrounge up more ammunition"--if so, relying on the player finding secrets is not good game design as the game does not instill a need to go out of your way secret hunting. additionally, for zero good reason, the tutorial decides not to tell you about the air dash until you've already done some platforming where it would've been useful. if you want boomer shooters that go for the "fighting for your life with tooth and nail" vibe, nowadays you've got so many alternatives that simply do it to a far higher caliber, with much better design (Ultrakill, Prodeus, Dusk, Severed Steel, Arkos, Dread Templar, Amid Evil...). if you can get past these issues, there's fun to be had and it is super cheap. I think this game is more interesting as an introduction to this developer, and I hope they are able to learn from Wholesome Slaughter and refine any future projects more.

ONLY PAID $1 to get degraded by a teddy bear unicorn and panda repeatedly. Wholesome experience would highly recommend.

very competent doom-like fps game. plays very well, short and sweet, and def worth the 99 cents.

A solid shooter for a very reasonable price! You seriously have nothing to lose. Give it a try!

I bought this game on Itch.io when it first released back in December 2020. Since then the devs have fixed many of the games initial issues and have even added in new content and quality of life changes. Definitely recommend buying, especially for such a small price tag.

This game is a parody of the old Retrogame Doom with some Nintendosounds. Overall its a good shooter for a few cent

A fun experience for a small price. Plus that dollar is going to good people, so why not get this game?

Nice retro fps. Does not bring anything new to the table, but mechanically very good. Also has a great shotgun

Classic FPS game+over the top cute things=fun for all

Good game. Quick, fun and relaxing

TBH, prob the best dollar you can spend on a video game.

this is a fun game to play!

me dejo cumplir mi sueño de matar pandas

I am in dire pain

A very christian game.

Issa good
