Awesome game, my feedback is similar to others, with the game getting repetitive and there being less of an incentive to keep playing

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

I like the arcade style game.

Everything about it is pretty well polished and tidy.  I would have preferred for some more frequent or permanent upgrades to the shooting because I think it might have made it a bit more satisfying.  As you progress and get more numerous enemies, you also get stronger to be able to take them out quicker.

Otherwise, a really good submission.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback I will take it onboard for the future!

The art was awesome! You did very good, a solid arcade entry!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! It is the first time I've ever tried to make my own art so I'm happy with the result!

Its very cute! Gets repetitive after a while, would love to see future updates here :3

Developer

Thank you! I will 100% try to update the game further in the future.

Very solid entry for your first submitted project. I think that you have chosen a good type of a game in order to put in quite a lot of content. Few suggestion for the future (or a post jam version):

- make it bit more challenging - you have pletny of enemies already but it still lacks bit more "juice". You can easily add smaller/bigger types of enemies. You can even make certain type of enemies come from the right... this way you'll make player to be more active

- part of the challenge could be also fasten up the speed

- player could have different types of shots 

- screenshake - is simple yet powerfull effect to juice your game

These are really just a suggestions that I can see, would make this game, bit better, but overall you did really great job! I see that there are also few things to polish, like stop the motion of an object after it is destroyed, as you can now see the score moving. These are really barelly a complaints as your game feels truly good for a jam game! Keep it up and thanks for your game! Good job

Btw my highscore was: 20567

Thanks for the feedback! I absolutely will take this onboard for the future. I did try to add screenshake but it was way too late in the process and I couldn't make it work as the game was built to fit the main viewport, so when I added a camera it just destroyed everything haha. More learning to do on my end but I really appreciate the comment!

Apart from being a bit repetitive (pretty much always holding down the same button to shoot), I like the concept, and the graphics are unique. Impressive you did all this on your own!

It's a good arcade game, the game can be developed further, there is potential 

Developer

Thank you!

It genuinely is a wonderful game. The graphics, the simple sound - and the fact that it has a replay factor. Unfortunately, my high score didn't get that high.

Developer

Thank you very much!

A simple lil sidescroller game! The visuals and animations were great! Not bad at all!

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Love the animation and music, would love to see more chaos sooner though! Made it to 24k score before I needed to move on

Developer

Thank you - I will absolutely take that advice onboard for the future! More chaos sooner!

Great shoot-em-up with excellent theming! I love all the little details to the animation, it really adds to the polish and quality of the game! Great work!

Developer

Thank you!

Game's solid, the art looks nice and consistent and there are plenty of subtle animations that make it pleasant to look at (the rotation when you move up/down, the randomized projectile rotation, the explosions..

Developer

Thank you for noticing the small things, as I was adding them in I thought it wouldn't even be noticeable haha. Appreciate the comment!

Submitted(+1)

Great gameplay, art and overall details, really nice work. My type.

Developer

Thank you!

Sorry, I wanted to show your game some love but I won't download and run random executables. Consider making your games playable in the browser to reach a wider audience!

Developer

No problem I completely understand!! I should have done that but I don't think I can make that change now that the submission period has ended unfortunately. Thanks for the feedback

Developer

Hello! I have updated the game to be playable in browser now - hopefully you can still give it a chance at some point, thanks!

you have a good simple perfect game

Thank you!
