Limited indeed! Great polish making the bullets, enemy patterns, sfx, and vfx all really smooth. The way you chose to represent player HP was also really neat. Nice game :D

I reached wave 16 at best so far.

Very good implementation of the theme, it really makes you play the game in a different way than another game, I specially like how much it punishes you for missing an enemy. The game controls well, there are not tons of different enemies but the ones which are there works totally differently at least, triggering some cool visual effects in the process. The result is cool arcade-ish gameplay loop, with the right difficulty.

Cool and unique game, thanks for sharing.

I really liked this one! I definitely felt limited in what I could do, I thought it worked really well with the theme!

Thank you! I put much time into testing, making sure it feels limiting, but also possible to nohit under any circumstances if you skilled  enough. And I'm glad I managed to do this :)

Really fun concept. I think the energy use could use some balance because i felt constantly out of energy but really good job! Your tutorial is also really great.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! When playtesting I always accumulated on average 65 energy until 15'th wave  and then energy amount kept staying on this number, so for skilled player I would say it is quet balanced 

But it is quite challenging for me to no hit this game, so for the game jam it is probably too hard, right

And I just realized that hp regulator doesn't really work for this game as a difficulty setting, it should of been energy accumulation multiplier

You definitely got the feeling of being constrained down! I had a lot of fun with this game and it sound good too

Developer

Thanks! I actually think the sound is the worst part of the game. I made volume sliders because of how bad I think sound is xD

But there is as much opinions as there people i guess

That was tons of fun! Visually and gameplay-wise, the game worked really well, and the mechanic felt innovative. Very nicely done!

Developer

Thank you! I tried to build on that concept as much as I could
