Super fun and simple. Although the gameplay loop is the same, I enjoy the increase in the little battle ballls and slamming into the enemies at top speed. If you didn't know you can sling shot off the walls for even more speed, probably my favorite part is the colours.
While the gameplay is very simple, just popping balloons, the movement and graphical effects are very satisfying. I like the chromatic aberration as you reach top speed and the how the walls stretch when you bounce off of them. Even ramming the orbs feels good. Presentation wise, this game is excellent.
When you reach enough stages, the game has a severe performance drop and becomes slow motion. It is actually kind of satisfying to "unlock" the frame rate again by destroying more orbs. However it eventually becomes unplayable.
Apparently the enemies can damage you? I didn't notice that while playing. If there were intelligent enemies and more than just shooting and ramming, this would make a great full-sized game.
Yes, I knew about the performance problem, and I was going to implement spacial hash grids and such - because at the moment every enemy loops over every other enemy. Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough time to do that though. I’d definitely like to continue working on this game though. Thank you for your feedback!
A very relaxing game, well put together, I enjoyed it!
Thank you! I’m glad you liked it!
Wow! I really enjoyed the fast-paced movement in the game and just shooting the orb like monsters. I believe this game has a potential to be a roguelike shoot 'em up game with character upgrades. Great job!
Thanks! I’m thinking of doing more with this game later, I’ll be sure to add some of your ideas!
Well. Its a classic with nice additions.
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it
