It's sad that there was that bug, but it was still quite fun! I liked the music and the concept is really cool! The only bad thing I'd have to say is that I don't really like the font. But I'd love to play this if you'd patched out the bug!

Ohhhh!!! The game looks so good and I just wanted to play more! It's such a shame that I couldn't due to that bug. That was some amazing pixel art! Dude I wanted to jump on that enemy but the lava (T_T). I can see the potential. If not due to that bug, you would have submitted such a great game. Amazing!

Please take some time to play and rate my game as well, I would really appreciate it! Thanks!!

I'm looking forward to seeing the patch, I got stuck on level two as well. 

I too got stuck in second level. I will play try it again once the ratings are over as you suggested, I'm curios about the rest

The shooting feels nice, but as other people have said in the comments, I couldn't get past level 2. That's alright, though. The game still has potential :)

Hey bud i tried  your game and couldnt get past level two but after looking at the comments it seems you werent aware of that bug until afterwards but hey, it happens! I have a sorta game breaking bug in my game as well where you can only make it to  level 3 and not up to 5 :( please dont take offense i just  want to be constructive for your next game. I felt like the theme was a bit lacking. I just feel like there wasnt too much creativity in the theme aspect. One thing that felt off to me was the control scheme. It wouldve felt much better to have the jump button bound to the W or Up arrow key since those buttons were not used for anything else. I really like the music though. Very well done!

the effects are amazing and its a good game but it has bugs that i cant even go in the next level. It would be amazing if you fix those bugs hehe. 

I think this game has potential, but there were a few bugs that could be ironed out for a better player experience. I have an ultrawide monitor, and the UI over-scaled to the point that I couldn't click the Quit button. The controls were a little floaty for my tastes, which caused more than a couple accidental slides into lava. Regardless, congrats on finishing and publishing the game! 

It sounded like a good idea, but I couldnt get past the one that was spawning in the lava. It kept dying(?) but then just respawning like nothing happened. The graphics was decent and the premise of having more time to beat the boss sounded good

Very good first game jam game! There were a few bugs, and the character moved quite quickly,  but otherwise it was a good effort. I'd appreciate if you could rate mine!

I like this game! Great art and gameplay! Good job!

Please check my game as well ;)

It's okay I guess. The character is moving too quickly and enemies are very easy to kill. Also I can't beat the second level. Always remember to playtest to make sure that everything is fine!

I think its great that you made a game! And the concept is nice. However i encountered a bug where monsters would not die and just respawn over and over. Keep jamming and learning !:)

Nice game! I liked the concept and most of the art looks nice!

i cant beat the second stage or maybe i can i dont know 

it would loss its health or shield ten it would become dizzy and spawn again..but overall it was ok. i however think the art and music are great...cough....better than mine anyway...

I had fun wihle playing . The concept is original gotta say that.My only problem is the controls. Player moves and jumps too fast sometimes i couldn't jump where i wanted and jumped into lava :D . Other than that great work i liked it :)

I liked it ! And well done for a first game jam !
Font was a bit hard to read, and the feedback on some enemies could have been improved, but still, a good job for a first one !

congratulations for finishing your first jam!!! 

i would say some things so you can improve your next game : 

* the explosion and enemies animation are well done

* the UI is not, i mean, it's functional but it doesn't look good, my advice is this:

choose ONLY ONE typography for all the menu, and design your color palette for the menu, not based on  the color of your level, but instead based on the feeling/theme/atmosphere that you try to communicate with your game. and choose a typography that reinforces that theme. same wiht the buttons, and the rest of the menu elements.

* i can't pass the second enemy because its always on the lava, so , my advice with this is check your enemy AI behavior, or make sure that they spawn/ roam between an area determined by 2 Vector2 variables, that way you ensure that your enemies will stay where you want them to.

* the healt bars :  if you are going to use a slider as a health bar, remove the ball thingy that comes with the gameObject, otherwise, you could use a panel, and change it's fill value variable via code. (check internet for tutorials) is a much better way to do health bars, and also supports images , so you can add custom health bars designed by you.

*the player jumps way too high and move sideways like sliding, try to improve that by using a rigidbody to move the character, (using transform.translate or transform.positon will clip your character if he moves fast enough).

again congrats for making it to the end , and keep coding!!!

I really like the creativity and the way you implemented the theme. The art is awesome too. Rated 5 stars.

If you have a second check out my submission too.
