Cool game! Loved the idea behind it, and I appreciate the amount of variety in the enemy bullet patterns. Only thing I felt was a little weird was the aiming. Trying to split my focus between dodging bullets at the bottom of the screen and trying to target enemies at the top was a little awkward. Other than that though, it played great. Would make a fun little game if you ever decide to expand on it.

Yeah I agree for sure, aiming is definitely quite awkward. Thanks for playing!

It looks nice, controls really well, the size of the hitboxes is very comfortable, has decent variety of attack patterns and even an upgrades system! It's so simple but also very pleasant to play, and could definitely use more variety in the slime types, but the bullet patterns themselves are really varied.

As expected of a jam game, it's really short, and left me craving for more! Would really love to play a full version in the future!

Thanks for playing! I did originally plan for additional enemies, but they were cut from the submission for time constraint reasons lol. I'll be working more on the game in the future so check back in a couple months!

Wow, this is really good! I think this uses the theme much better than most games, as being able to step outside the circle if you really need to adds a lot of depth to the game. The art and music are very good, and buying upgrades is a great addition! Overall a very solid entry and one of my favorites so far!

If you can find time to rate my submission as well, I would be very thankful!

This is a really nicely made game! Difficulty level is about right for a short experience like this, definitely a challenge for the final boss. Graphics and sound are great.

My only complaint is I found the mouse pointing to be unusual and difficult to keep track of because I was mostly looking at the bottom third of the screen micro-dodging bullets. I kept having to catch a break in the bullets just so I could look elsewhere to find my pointer. Maybe having a bigger pointer graphic, like a big red crosshair or something, would have made it easier to spot.

But hey, a minor gripe, I still played the whole thing and enjoyed it a great deal. Good job!

Thanks, and you're right about the mouse pointing issue! I did think about having a crosshair or having controller support but it didn't make its way into the submission. Next time I'll definitely think about controls/UI more! Thanks again for playing, glad you enjoyed.

This game fits the theme really well with the circle. Very pretty game! The dodging projectiles felt very fair and doable, It was very fun to play!

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
