Made it to the boss. Cool game. Couldn't tell the difference between enemies in terms of how one would kill you. I just kept running trying to make it to the next scene.

Shooting mechanic made this real hard.

All in all it was fun. Great job!

Could you also play and rate my game too?

Pretty cool idea! Would be great to have some effects :). like sounds effects and also some way to allow player to know they are being hit! maybe a screen shake :D

:)

Awesome take on the theme! The small, red skeletons gave me a real spook when I first saw them rushing towards me xD

Audio would be an awesome addition when the rating period is over.  If the red skeletons already got my blood pumping, then audio would make it even more exciting. 

Also, I noticed some of your green skeletons get stuck on the walls when they ran into them. Some of them were able to get themselves out but others remained stuck!

Overall, congrats on your first full game! I had a lot of fun :)

Took a bit to get used to, but clever idea :)

Yo’ Templar here,
The concept is interesting, both the bullets and movement being in reverse works great for the theme, but there are a few things to note:

• The bullets seem to follow the player, even through walls at time.
• Some enemies (The green ones as far as I can tell) sometimes go through walls and outside the map.
• The lack of a clear objective makes the game hollow.

Unique concept and congrats on making your first full game! If you add a little bit of sound, a small objective or score, it would make the game so much more fun with all the blasting that's going on! Good job and it was fun to play :)

We love your concept. Actually, we tried to do a similar thing, but instead of firing you just catch your own bullets. Its pretty interesting the difference in game play you get when your in control. Maybe you could check out our version too! Overall, a lot of fun to run through :)

Great concept! It was really fun to find out how exactly the bullets work and that even the enemies bullets where reversed and chests are build when you shoot at the wooden scraps. Love take on the theme!

Pretty unique mechanic. Consistent artwork as well

Took me some time to realize that everything was happening in reverse. Fun game. Aiming is quite funky though. Also next time don't forget to add atleast some simple sound effects.

The idea of calling the bullet back instead of shooting it is genius, but the controls are hard. Also, some sound would be nice, but great first game!

That's a great idea for the game but it needs some polishing.
I suggest you put some doors and let player go to next room once the current room is clear.
Also as others mentioned, a mouse control would be really cool.

Keep up the good work :->

I like the pixel art style.  Having different type of enemies in the game is a good addition.  However, the game is missing sound effects and music.

I really liked the game. Very fun. Indeed a little clunky, but overall I has fun :)

I like the idea and the art but it is hard to play :)

Really fun game! A little difficult to aim and tell where bullets are going to come from (player/enemy), but I really like the concept!

Really fun if it would let you aim with the mouse. Still an interesting concept, though. With sound, and post processing, it could be a pretty polished game. Great job on making a creative mechanic!

Good idea! It wasn't executed the best. I feel like aiming could have been done with the mouse, and there weren't any audio cues, but I felt it was interesting. Would like to see an updated version!
