Really fun to play, great visuals, great music, and really creative way of using the Light and Shadow theme of the Jam. Reminded me of Ikaruga, but in a completely different setting. Great job!!

Pretty fun game!
I think the music slider is good to have, though an effects slider would be nice as well.
Overall I like the theme and mechanics of the game. It is fun to progress and to play. My favorite weapon to use was the SMG. Great game overall!

This game is pretty neat!
I like the direction of the story and the music is pretty awesome!
The graphics effect when warping in and out of the portals was a nice touch!
Not sure if it was meant to be part of the game, but I think each bullet might be an accumulated amount instead of being just 1 bullet? (I think each bullet shot counts for like 5 or 10 of the 100 bullets instead of 1 bullet?) An interesting choice!
Thankfully, the bullets refill. ;D
Great work on this game!

Very satisfying gunplay and love the Ikaruga style light/dark mechanics.
Super fun :)

Ok, hotline miami meets Ikaruga, now we're talking. Exceptional entry all over, great graphics, fantastic gameplay, nice music, everything is on point.
My only complain would be with how slow it is to reload, with how fast our character is moving it's pretty easy to dodge everything while the bullet count goes up, but it's significant dowtime.
Amazing work anyway, this deserve to be way up the leaderboard
Hello! Thank you for your review, we were thinking of adding an adrenaline bar which means when u keep constantly killing enemies u will get more fire rate and fast speed on ur character, and maybe items that like in the binding of isaac that boost ur character. We are really glad you liked it besides that!

It's fun, and looks, sounds, and feels good to play. There's a lot of room for expansion which is a great thing if you want to continue to develop the game.
The alternate weapons (shotgun, smg) feel a bit weak though mostly due to energy usage. I can see the shotgun being a good emergency weapon though.
My favorite mechanic was using the enemies' bullets against large groups to explode and clear a room more quickly and safely. I think it'd be great when expanding on enemies to continue to add ways to use their strengths against them.
Great job to everyone involved; it's a very clean game and a good experience to play!
Thank you so much for your feedback! We will keep expanding our project adding new guns and enemies and more stuff. Abou the weapon balancement manny people think its unbalanced the other way around haha, I personally like to go with shotgun and smg. I will definitly thake your review into account for future updated.

that soundtrack is BUMPIN
very fun game, really enjoyed the mechanic with the different bullet types and it fit the theme super well. i agree with the other comment that some more sound effects would be nice but when there's only a week you can't always put everything you want in! overall really good job :)

The music and art style were great! More sounds would definitely be appreciated, like a sound for getting hurt for example. The more feedback to give the player the better! The game definitely stands out from the others as one of the higher-quality games in the jam :) well done!

Great game! I like the music and art. Also the effects and feel to the shooting. is very well done. With the dark/light bullet mechanic you have to think a bit instead of mindlessly shooting.
My issues:
- Dark/light bullet mechanic should be a bit more punishing. I could get away with killing most enemies regardless of ammo used.
- The music was too loud. Adding volume settings would be a good inclusion.
Hi, thank you for your review! About the punishement on shooting the wrong type of enemy, in the first build u used to also lose the energy u were gonna get returned but it made that players couldnt get further into runs and would get annoyed so I didnt make it as punishing but Im thinking in maybe adding it again but no as harsh, about the volune, there is a music volume slider at the start and you can only change it the first time you load the game because its a bit bugged.

I love a good bullet hell, and I love this! This is very good! I did run into a few problems, though:
- I ran into two crashes. First of all: pressing "R" in any context crashes the game. No idea why. Second of all, when I died pressing the Return To Main Menu button also crashes the game. Perhaps this is a WebGL issue, as I know you were struggling with that, but it's weird nontheless.
- Often times I would get completely trapped in a corner cause of how the enemies spawned, and was incapable of freeing myself. Perhaps this is intentional? But it did feel a little unfair.
Some positives: I really liked the music and sound design! Feels very crisp to play because of it.
Thanks for creating!

I liked simple dynamic gameloop. Gameplay is well polished, so it was enjoyable to play. It took me a few minutes to understand main mechanic of different elements for shots, but I could have just used the tutorial :)

Really enjoyed this one, did quite a few runs, it gets REALLY hard towards the end there, something i would love to see is like an icon or some sort of the reminder what mouse key does which color, sometimes I found myself scared in a corner hoping that I would not press the wrong mouse input xD Super enjoyable! Not sure if there is a certain ending but ill give it a shot in the future!
