In what way does your game fit the theme?
its a top down shooter where the gun switches every few seconds what makes the game really chaotic
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes all assets and code were made by me

I've rated the game, and I'm sorry but I'm a bit exhausted from giving a lot of in-depth feedback for a bunch of games, so here's the gist of my feedback for you;
- Give more game feedback to the player: The player should be able to see and hear every time they hit an enemy and when they get hit by an enemy
- Fix the health bar, please.
- Consider adding some sort of limitations and incentives for the game. Right now the game is just "hold down left click and aim at the bad guys". Maybe consider limiting the number of bullets in each gun, and force the player to physically pick up new guns when they run out of ammo to add more skill and thought to the game.
- Maybe try revising the colour palette for the game. Unless you can afford to draw custom sprites for everything, just stick with coloured boxes for everything, giving everything very distinct colours. SuperHot is a great example of this, with only 3 colours for the whole game, yet everything stands out and these colours do a great job of communicating what's an enemy, what can be interacted with, and what can't be interacted with.
- Increase the player's movement speed to make the game feel more responsive. It doesn't feel like it when you code it, but just changing the speed of the player makes a huge difference.
thanks a lot for the feedback its really hepful
Alright, First of all it was fun. But I found this weird bug, I was still able to play after my health in level 2. After killing all enemy no more levels were loaded.
I'd also love you to play and rate mine with honest feedback. I bet you will love the challenge..

The health bar is bugged after you finish the first level it doesnt show your health anymore, after killing all the enemies you are supposed to walk to the door (brown square) thats on the top of the level and that takes you to the next level. Thanks for playing my game
I enjoyed the game and liked the different modes! It does get really chaotic at some point. :) Nice job!
GG
I've played with fun and even finished the game.
Good entry for a jam especially for beginner. I like different modes like 'small people', 'fast guns' and so on. Game is somehow addicting and you play cuz you want to see what will be next. And the final message brought me a feeling of completion.
It's great that you have finished your project, I wish you best luck with your next games!
Thanks a lot for the feedback its really helpful
game was pretty decent. didnt have a start menu so i got confused as the game started instantly. good job!
I've seen many bullet hell but this one has a nice twist to it! It's a bit rough on the design but very enjoyable to play and each gun feels unique. Well done.
thanks for the feedback, what do you think could be better about the design?
I hope this doesn't come off too harsh but since you ask ^^... Besides having some sounds (which is a whole other skill that I don't have ^^), the graphics can be improved, maybe some flashier colors, maybe some sprites for the player and the enemies, maybe some knock back effect when a bullet hits. There is actually a really nice talk on youtube about that : "Juice it or lose it - a talk by Martin Jonasson & Petri Purho" that could give you some ideas on how to make it more punchy.
Don't stress about it tho, the concept you developed is quite unique and nice to play ;-)
thanks a lot! i will definetely check out the video
Hey! Have played and rated. Well done for completing the jam!
The game tho not complete was really fun! it would be awesome to see what happens when its complete
love the gun changing concept! awesome game!
Really nice concept, but definitely needs polish if you are ever going to make it something bigger, but still good job on this!
It is a really cool game! The thing i'd change is the size of bullets to increase it's visibility! But overall the game is really good! c:
Had a good time playing this game. The game feels fast, fun and chaotic, all good things
the gun switching is cool and the difficulty progression is solid!
Cool game! I noticed a bug where the health bar doesn't reset when you die, but other wise, a fun game!
thank you! yeah the problem with the health bar appeared after i built the game and i wasnt ready for it what meant that i didnt have enough time to fix it
Great concept, I love the variety of different projectiles.
im happy that you liked it thank you for the feedback
It's a great game with a cool concept however my health bar became empty but I could still take many hits before losing.
thank you! yeah the problem with the health bar appeared after i built the game and i wasnt ready for it what meant that i didnt have enough time to fix it
Good game, it's easy to understand and to play. it is kinda difficult to differentiate the player from enemies tho.
Thanks a lot for the feedback!
