Pretty trippy stuff :D Some minor QoL features like an aim indicator would've been nice but playable without it. Neat entry, nice job!

Thank you!

Super cool style, unique in all aspects. I really like the differences in each mode, and small details like the woosh of a projectile flying past your head are sick. I think this game could benefit from a lot of gameplay clarity things, like giving a crosshair to know where you're aiming, and some simple instructions on the objective. I should be saying "wtf" at the visuals, not how to play the game if ya feel me ;) Other than that I enjoyed this game, I'd love to see the visual style applied to different stages too, could be interesting!

Thanks!

Wow, great work! I love a lot of stuff about this game, the visuals are great, very engaging and funky to look at. Love the music as well and the way it changes, highlighting the various modes both in the music and game play. Nice job!

I would have loved a crosshair!

Developer

That's valid! Next update i'll add it.

Interesting concept and good use of the theme. The surreal art & atmosphere were cool and the hands were well animated. Good Job!

Heyo the first stage is very fun and responsive. It feels good to play and I'm glad the second stage introduced new enemies but I did enjoy the one-two shot mechanic of the first stage a little more. I found it hard to tell when I was shooting in the second I get it was hold but the animations of the first were snappy and felt great. Very unique art and fantastic work overall though.

Intriguing, Creative, Original! I liked it

Very interesting game and the enemies were certainly quite unique (flying dolphins, cooks, etc..) not to mention their projectiles ;-) .
Since I couldn't know whether I hit an enemy (there wasn't a visible projectile or damage indicator) I survived by carefully running in circles around the enemies.
Still a very nice jam entry.

Developer

Oh but the enemies were suppoused to turn red when hit. that didn't happen to you??

Submitted(+1)

No they didn't turned red when I attacked them (even at close range).
But I still had fun trying to avoid all the attacks thrown at me.

Developer(+1)

That sounds like a bug. Thank you so much for the nice comment! :)

I like your take on the theme, the atmosphere was very surprising and unique. I also really enjoyed how the difficulty ramped up over time. It didn't feel too overbearing. 


I think it could use some UI elements to help the player understand that the game is time-based. Originally, I thought the objective was to kill all of the enemies in the area so I was actually playing recklessly instead of trying to survive.

Cool game.

Developer

That's true! at first it had the timer but got it out. I now see it could be actually useful. Thank you for the comment !

The game idea is really cool and i also like how not only your weapons change but also your special ability and the music. I had some problems with knowing when i shoot (atleast for the third weapon) or where i shoot (maybe having a crosshair to show where you shoot could help). I have not survived the 8 minutes because of the sun, but the time i did play was fun :)

Interesting game, it is a little confusing because you can't really see what you're shooting, but it is fun to shoot the enemies and run from them. I died a couple of times and then I survived like 4 or 6 minutes.

I only got to the part where the 4 suns appear in the sky, then I died :(

A really cool game over all :)
