One of the more creative art style I remember lots of dialogue and story and fun humor! 4.25/5 !
Hey there, I am trying to get other to re-submit their reviews for my game if possible...it was deleted and removed from the Jam on accident based on a technicality which was solved between the Jam Host and a particular asset used in the game...please if you have time, energy, and/or generosity to re-saved your ratings/reviews for the game. I am going through and re-saving yours given my browser kept your rating saved data on my end...but it looks like I lost all 73 reviews and ratings from my end.... :( best of luck to you in the Jam
Sorry for the inconvenience if you have a chance to rate/re-rate
Cool style. Nice movement. There is a bug where if you press dash while shooting, the dash won鈥檛 work, but personally it didn鈥檛 bother me. Overall a very good game.

E/S/C: DUST, RUST AND DEATH DEMONice art and one of the few games that didn't give bosses a massive healthpool, the bosses weren't particulary fun tho more or less just a sprite swap and the 3rd one had like 3 instances of me taking damage in a single frame when it teleports

A Whole WolfrushThe art direction is great, and really polished. I really like the manga style story, and the character designs are goofy and interesting
Submitted
Jar Full of BrainsIncredible game - so polished and well done. Loved the story, art, music & gameplay!

Ultimate Space BattlesWow. What a great game. Great work! All aspects of the game are so solid and coherent. You guys work on this full-time for the month, haha. My favorite game in the jam.

Lord of Limbshaha thank you so much! actually (little flex) we did most of it during the last week x) i was procrastinating so much i watched whole 4 seasons of attack on titan and all of mob psycho before i really started drawing :P programmer has a little kid and work and i asked our storywriter one week before the end to join in! she did an amazing job on such short conditions. but yeah last few days messed up my sleep rhythm
I loooove the art style! This is an awesome game with a lot of potential!
Submitted
Frog With A KunaiThe art style is perfect, I really like the boss's attack pattern and the time-changing mechanic. The only thing I can mention is that sometimes combat happens off-screen.

Deal with the DevilThe art is so impressive man, one day I hope to work with someone with these talents!

Soul Shift: Beast MountainFelt like i watched anime xd. This game is satisfiing in all aspects, even interacting with menu is fun. Story is hillarious. Bucket - true gigachad. Shlabethany - indeen a bitch.

BLOOD=BULLETSWhoa, absolutely love the art and story! It really takes you into the world! I also really appreciate the attention to detail in the gameplay, like the screen-shake from the impact, the time slow effect, the fact that the music slows along with the timeslow, I'm also in love with your "Fight" transition screen!
The only feedback is that the transition between the story and the gameplay feels a little bit forced, but otherwise it was a really fun experience!
Submitted
Wrap, Paper, ScissorsIntuitive gameplay and the slowdown mechanic was a neat feature, though I often found that I didn't need to use it to defeat the bosses. The Scott Pilgrim-esque story was fun too!
Submitted
Dokkon! Sushi Love SensouWow, really incredible art style and a delightfully silly story. It reminds me a lot of Scott Pilgrim. I feel like I would want the camera to be zoomed out a little bit more during the battles though, so that I could better track the boss's location. But other than that, simply top-tier work!
Submitted
Vermin VendettaGreat story. The artstyle is very consistent and fitting, and well use of the boss rush theme. The gameplay and controls are good and the attacks are clever and fits the bosses.
If I were to suggest one improvement, it would be to center the camera between the boss and PC as to keep the boss in view longer.
