I like the idea , it is intresting ! Good job!
Im really bad but this game rocks!
Most fun I've had so far, managed to get 209 kiils. Awesome game overall.
Nice score!
My best score so far has been 66, it might have been the only time I survived long enough to encounter the characters which shoots 3 bullets, not sure if there are more different enemies.
The game looks great, and I like the sound effects. It's very fun, the speeds of things feel right, the dash attack feels good and you made a very good implementation of the theme, during the early parts it's actually easy to see what's going on but as it goes on it becomes super interesting to deal with.
Well done, thanks for sharing.
There are 5 unique enemies in total, which the one that shoots 3 bullets in the 4th enemy.
I'm glad you enjoyed it
Wow, excellent work! An incredibly interesting mechanic, aesthetically-pleasing art design, and super satisfying movements and attacks. Just super fun all around! My one issue is that there were a few times when I was holding down sight, and the sight bar refilled, but the sight went away. But other than that, this is practically flawless execution of a great idea! Hats off to you!
Never encountered that issue, will try to fix. Thanks for the feedback!
This made me feel like I was playing Hyper Light Drifter, so BIG props on that. I love how rewarding it felt to pop off a good combo!
unique concept but somehow easy to pick up. the visual effect is simple but solid. and the feeling of a good slice is amazing. good job
Instant fun !
This is such a clever use of the theme, and i like the very simple black and white only color scheme to help with readability, and the fact that you invert the colors when you open or close your eyes is really cool.
The sword slashing is also really fun, and the overall gamefeel is quite satisfying thanks to a very complementary sound design.
Had a blast ! Even if i didn’t survive all that long XD
Great job :)
Simple, intuitive and awesome idea! Really neat graphics that are visually appealing and good implementation. I had a lot of fun playing this!
Very unique concept love it! I also really like the part where I can chain slash that add a lot of flow to the game!
Best use of the theme I’ve seen (pun unintended). I love the vibe and the gameplay is cool, I really like playing no-sight runs and feel like Samurai Jack vs the blind archers
Nice, Samurai Jack was one of the inspirations for this game so I'm glad you felt that way.
Cool theme idea. I think this has some potential to be really cool but at the moment it feels a bit too random and repetitive.
The player pain sound could do with being a bit louder, with all the gunshots it can be drowned out.
It bugged at the end when I died, my body just kept bouncing around the screen while more enemies kept spawning and shooting. I couldn't click on the restart button because there was text over it.
This is so sick! I was confused at first mainly cuz I dont like reading and probs skipped the instructions but when I figured it out I liked it a lot. Felt sick like choosing when and when to not use the sight
Very original mechanic, fun gameplay, nice sound design, all in all great job!
I love it! Very good implementation of the mechanics, it is very original. Congratulations!
Really neat idea on the theme. It might need a bit of balancing because I never felt like I was going to run out of the ability to see but really nice implementation!
Cool game, good art style. At the beginning it feels very slow and the game need some music. Overall I had fun with it and u used the theme very well :)
Not the traditional bullet hell however fits well with the theme of limited. It would be cool if you had alternate keyboard binds for right and left click since its sorta hard to play on trackpad but it is fine with mouse and key. Probably one of the best games I have played from this jam! I got to level 10 and its gets really hectic.
