It wasn't bad, the controls felt a tad stiff and fast. The bouncing bullets was neat, however the limited nature forced me to shoot slowly and precisely which slowed down the pace. I enjoyed the audio and the visuals as well. All in all, good job!

Really loved the way the enemies and bullets behaved, and the fact that bullets can bounce off eachother was really cool attention to detail!

I like the concept of the bouncy and limited bullets. I definitely found it hard and sometimes a little unfair. I think a little bit more contrast or colour with the enemy bullets would help! Though still enjoyable great work!

Yeah, I definitely need to work on the contrast and there's work to be done on enemy spawning and the difficulty ramp for sure!
Thanks for playing :)

AAAAAA WHY DOES THE GAME CHANGE MY SCREEN RESOLUTIOOOOOOONNNN

Other than that, the game is very creative and interesting to play. The concept of having limited bullets you have to catch is really interesting. Movement is nice and responsive, with graphics being really nice and stylized. One health is fairly punishing though. Overall, great game!

Developer

Ah, it definitely shouldn't change your screen res!! The resolutions options went in literally ten minutes before the deadline so I guess there's some bugs there, sorry about that! 

Thanks for the kind words :)

Fun factor smashed out of the park :D and very accurate title, not 1 second in and one of those ships spawned and bopped straight into me ;n;

Simple arcade fun, but doesn't joke around in terms of difficulty :o

I liked it, the limited bullets enforeces a more strategic approach to how you play, and i like how you could use the screen border to bounce them for some trickshots. 

But the difficulty is quite steep, i feel this is mostly due to some of the enemies speed/speed of their bullets this makes the game quite intense from the start but can also lead to quick deaths where you don't have any time to understand where it came from.

Even with that said i enjoyed it, cause once i got the hang of it and managed to survive a bit it was fun to play, and the ship models are nice with their low poly style.

Well done overall :)

Talk about bullet hell! Lots of bullets coming from everywhere! Really fun and challenging game to try to get a high score from dodging all of the attacks. Cool to see a game on here have controller support as well. 5/5
