Well the player ships give the AIs a bullet hell XD Also the performance is great and runs really smooth for all those particles(?) with collision.

Very well made game ! I like the visuals a lot, and the music is pretty nice. Solid entry, congrats!

good but ui seemed a bit hard to use, and controls seem a little hard because I have to press z and x across the keyboard while moving with arrow keys is hard... WASD might have been easier for z and x. Other than that really clean visuals and fun audio.

Great visuals! Super impressive, it reminded me of those cabinet shooters I used to play in my local pizza place! I have to say the art direction is perfection, Is true some of the elements of enemy difficulty seem a bit ttoo much, but aside from that is fantastic! And im impressed you made this in Godot? 

Developer

Thanks! It wasn't made in Godot, it was made in Gdevelop.

Amazing presentation !

The game looks awesome and is very well animated, the launch sequence followed by the title scroll really feels like some authentic arcade style game, i also like that you leaned on this aspect in the menu as well with the ship selection screen showcasing the shot's patterns like it was in classic titles, i really enjoyed the ship designs as well, and the parallax on the clouds look awesome.

Gameplay wise the controls feel solid and responsive, but the difficulty was a bit too insane for me, these bullet speeds are fast !

I managed to survive up to the first boss but didn't last much longer fighting him, still had a fun time though, and the game has a lot of polish already for a jam entry.

Good job :)

Very well done! The enemies are brutal, you're not messing around with that bullet speed! The art and music are very well done, although I don't really see the theme used here.

This looks amazing! And as a fellow Gdeveloper I do appreceate that a lot!

However, it is quete confusing at times. I don't seem to find any indicator of how much health I have left. Apart from that though, this is an amazing game! It's got amazing graphics and is very well polished.

One thing I'd like to ask, if you use Z as an entry method, please also map Y to the same function to accommodate for different keyboards.

Developer

the only "health" indicator there is are the lives. it shows them in the game screen on the top right corner. 

I'll see if I'll able to make the Y key behave like Z soon.

Nice! This game is so polished! The controls were strange at first, and the difficulty was a little harsh, but I absolutely loved it. Art + Music was great and it was definitely BulletHell.

Had a hard time figuring out the controls. It was a bit to challenging to me and I felt a bit overwhelmed. The staging visuals narration and sounds were superb though.

Super slick presentation, though I felt the enemies (especially the popcorn) were a tad too spongy, with the non-damaging bombs exacerbating this aspect a bit. The deletion zone felt a bit inconsequential, felt like I was maxed out most of the time.

Developer

I'll see if i can change the enemies in a later patch. Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it.

A superb, more classic feeling, true bullet hell shooter. It is presented beautifully with small things like the camera movement and animations making this feel very tight. And the claustrophobia is real with this one!

Love the visual style, it did get a bit too overwhelming for me at times but still had loads for fun. The audio design was also good!
