Wow, cool game! 

Maps are randomised? Nice! 

Very good balance on enemies - it's hard, but possible. Cool sounds and graphics!

The main door is awesome! It would be nice to make some good final, but process is fun!

Well there are only 4 maps,  but they are randomly generated. There is supposed to be a boss fight at the end, but due to a bug it's broken in this version. After the jam ends, i'm gonna upload updated version where thats fixed. Thanks for playing!

Opened the door and died instantly, I would recommend adding more effects for when the player is hit. Otherwise very fun game.

Pretty fun game. I noticed a bug with the movement though, if you keep going in one direction while shooting your character keeps slowing done till they completely stop, once you stop it resets and you can move again. Feels like its a recoil effect that's stacking against your movement speed. Also, you might wanna add a slight pause of some kind before the end boss, the instant I touched the door I was in the middle of the boss hitting me and died almost instantly upon entering the room. other that that it was really fun, I liked flying around and shooting.

Developer

It's a collision bug actually, player is colliding with fireballs, i've fixed it, but not updated the game because of the rules. Thanks for feedback and playing!

the pixel art is very cool and gameplay is very nice, I like the animation and the feel of the game very cool, left a rate hope you do as well.

Quite a nice game. I was pretty confused most of it, I just sort of stumbled my way through, thought the keys were enemies at first. Got to the final boss and died instantly though. Other than the confusion and a bit of wackiness like the bullets spiralling out of control though it was a good game!

Developer

Yeah, game clearly lack a mini map of sorts, thanks for playing!

Fun game! The objects that you need to collect dont realy look like keys and when I got behind the door I died before I could do anything but navigating trough the maze was fun and the graphics were nice, good job!

Submitted

Really engaging experience! I kept dying but finally grabbed a couple of keys. The gameplay is challenging yet rewarding. A minimap would be a great addition to help navigate

Submitted

I died a lot, and managed to get to 2 keys in one round but not the third. Really good gameplay. Also agrees with the need for a minimap.

Submitted

Your art style is really impressive. Good game and loved the gameplay. My only suggestion is to include a minimap in game cause i had hard time exploring all the areas for collecting keys.

Developer

Yeah,  i agree, just didnt have time to add mini map. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Good job on the game, I had fun. Nice art and sounds. I think I finished the game on my first try, I collected all the keys then when I opened the door I spawned at the center of the boss(the big black one) and died. Then I was back at the main menu.

Developer(+1)

Ooops, prolly boss attacked too fast(gotta fix that), sorry about that! Glad you had fun!

Submitted

Great art and the design was very good

Submitted

I died a lot lol but the graphics where legit loved the style!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Fun but hard! I really liked the game idea, but i died so many times and sadly i have not found all the Keys yet. Movement somethimes stoped working and flames started spinning, but it was fun!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!
