Ranked from 59 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
You have to collect as many orbs in the level as you can. When you die in-game (the end,) you respawn and lose 30% of the orbs you collected (the new beginning.)

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I used ChatGPT to help me with the player controller and the timer. But other than that, i wrote everything else on my own, along with all of the art and animations. I also got the music from Royalty Free Planet on YouTube.

Oh yea, I also asked ChatGPT for the title :)

Really cool! I love the UI and the sound design a lot. The only feedback I have is that when you have a controller plugged in an it moves at all you lose control of the player and it drifts a random direction. Other than that bug it was really good! Great work :)

Thanks! 

Yea, i tried (and failed) to get it working on a controller last minute of the jam, so id recommend playing with a keyboard instead lol.

I am a huge fan of the post-proccessing, the audio, and the overally feel of the game! i do however think that it may be beneficial if there was some sort of scaling so the enemies for weaker at the beginning and stronger later on, but thats just me

Nice game, one thing I would change is the enemy spawning. I died once and got overrun by hundreds of them when I spawned back in.

Awesome game! The music and the post processing effects made it feel really cool and intense. It was fun, good job! :)

Cool cool game. The DJ booth level design was a rad touch, I loved the movement mechanics, the art, and the music. My one critique, it would be awesome to see which enemies have lower health, maybe in how they're colored, so that I can strategize who to shoot. Really cool entry!

This was a lot of fun to play.  Definitely could have done with a little more variety in weapons and enemies, but the music is super good and the juice is very nice!  Well done.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! :D

I was originally going to implement more weapons, like a shotgun, automatic, and a rifle, but due to time constraints I ended up scrapping it.

There is a bug when i click on my middle mouse button at an edge and then it gets stuck in a one way movement.

For gameplay it would be more fun if there was different guns for different generations.

in the end its pretty solid game and its was fun that there is a Dj in the field playing the music or is enjoying to the music :D.

Thanks!

I was originally going to put different weapons into the game, but due to time constraints (and my coding knowledge) I wasn't able to actually do it.

Really love the art style and the music. Nice and simple, but addicting. Great work!

As everyone here seems to agree, the art style is superb, and the sound track is a banger. Very simplistic keeps you engaged, deserving of a high rating for sure

I clipped through wall and left the main room. I thought it'll be safe there but enemies clipped too and we had to fight basically outside the world, epic. Despite that, very good game I must say

Developer (1 edit)

Lol, thanks :)
