Peak game. I love the art and vfx  and  the game is so polished for a game that had to be made within the game jam timeframe!

Peak!! I kind of wish you could have all the guns from the beginning, it is kind of annoying to have to unlock them all.

you could always download the game which has saving... *wink wink*

Peak game. To any new players out there, strafing is your best friend. You can avoid most enemies' attack patterns by moving in a circle around the screen, and switching direction if the enemies start following from the opposite side. (Like Minecraft pvp, if you know what I mean)

Would prefer a bossbar on the final fight so I could see how much health is left in that firewall. Want to see it burn

My Pceeeeeee... (Seriously tho, cannot even begin to comprehend how long the vfx probably took. Like this could easily be a commercial game)

Holy peak. Lots of build, weapon, and enemy variety so the game stayed fresh. Incredibly clean and polished as well. Overall really fun!

Developer

Thanks for the review!

amazing super fun game!

I love the art and vfx, it's definitely some of the best in this gamejam! I haven't done a full playthrough yet (my computer crashed in the middle of it :sob:) so im not sure if this an accurate judgement, but I do feel that the game can get a little stale. It would be cool if you added bosses or other twists in the gameplay. Anyways, great game, it was super fun to play!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Obviously, we couldn't get all the things we wanted to add into the game, but we actually do have a bossfight (with some extra story!). We also added the enemy enhancements too (not as many as we wanted but a good amount).

Oh nice! I guess i just didnt reach it yet.

Really well-made and polished! Very addicting to play, would love to see more lore and upgrades implemented.

Love the concept

The art style in this game is amazing, taking the simplistic retro style, and amping it up with VFX and a really nice colour scheme. Also the SFX and music boost the feel of it to the next level, and the gameplay loop feels addicting, perfectly capturing the essence of roguelikes and bullet hells. One thing I'd have liked to see is a bit more upgrade diversity, though, as most were effectively reskins of "more damage" and "more survivabalilty". Amazing game, hoping it gets the credit it deserves!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! We did add some rare upgrades, but I do agree we could've added more unique ones.

Really nice game, The sound effects are much better than most other games in this jam. The visual style is really nice, although I did find the game rendered at quite a low resolution. It was a fun game, although at some point the levels felt very cramped, reminds me a lot of Nova Drift!

This game is certainly deserving of an award, good luck!

Developer

Thanks for the review! About the whole resolution thing, it's because of the web build😭. If you download the game (no viruses trust me), it should be a lot better quality, because we had to use compatibility rendering for the web build and stuff. Good luck to you too!

This is an amazing game, so first I would like to go through all of the stuff I enjoyed the most!

I really commend the effort that was put into this, and the stability across platforms. Difficulty really ramps up across levels, but its really fun to play nonetheless! I can see that a lot of effort was put into enemy mechanics, graphics and the overall polish that is clear throughout the game, and it really shows!

Controls are also really smooth and fun to use, and I enjoyed using the powerups because they don't give you an unfair advantage over your enemies, they just keep it competitive enough to keep up with the new mutated enemies. 

The music is really good, fits with the electronic theme and really gets you into the vibe of it, so awesome job on that too!

I would however suggest that to fit better with the theme, make it more visually like levels have a depth to them so it matches better with the "Under the Surface" theme as it isn't as evident when you first try the game. Even visually stacking the levels from top to bottom in a menu can help with this!

Note that this is really minor, as the new update you guys added makes it clearer exactly how it is beneath the surface

Overall though, this is definitely one of the best games in the jam, so really great job!!

Developer(+1)

First of all, thanks for the long review, I really appreciate the feedback. Secondly, I know the theme isn't the most prominent and I like your ideas, but we tried our best (bc we didnt really have any unique mechanics utilizing this theme besides puzzle platformers lol). Again, thanks!

Submitted

Nice game, but i don't get how's this "under the surface"

Developer (2 edits)

This is the initial version of the game without much explanation, but we will be pushing out the newest version before deadline (which you should definitely check out). Thanks for the feedback though!
