Really neat idea, just like the others have said.

It took me a while to realise that I was playing it all back to front and getting shot up unnecessarily. I never did manage to shoot the enemy. 

Hats off to you for just doing this in python with no game engine!

cool game and idea, kept getting caught in the corner, need more practice!

I think this is a really nice take on the SUPERHOT idea, and it works well from a top down perspective. My only note would be to maybe add some kind of visual effect or sound when you get hit, because sometimes I wouldn't know I'd been hit until I saw I only had a few hearts left. Nice job!

I liked the idea of moving controlling time. It really gives you time to plan the best route and analyze the enemies' behavior.

I got a little frustrated with the first weapon fire rate. Seemed unfair... those guys were raining on me and I was like... let me shoot at them gun!!! lol

And congrats for making it without an engine!

Great work!

Keep it up!

Love this game  feel lots more polished since has time i played it.  It takes a bit of practice to  know where to aim the shot, but i really enjoyed playing it.   And the fact you  have written it without a game engine  credit to you.

Just missing some music and a bit of hit feedback .

Nice game and super cool idea!!! Loved the concept of being able to try to plan a strategy while in the midst of being shot! One or two things that I found made things too difficult was not really knowing when I had been hit and not getting your health back when going from room to room. Also, sometimes i would click and no shots would be fired. Don't know if that's by design (like some cool down period) or a bug. But all in all a really cool concept!! 
And thanks for hosting this Jam! It's our first one and we've had a lot of fun, learned tons and we're enjoying seeing the creativity of other people! 

I wish I had the ability to make a game without an actual engine like you did man xD

I like the idea, found a small bug in which the cooldowns are accounted for in realtime time instead of "player moves" time

I've always loved bullet hell style games, and I really love the way this concept works with them! I ended the game (by losing a lot) still wanting more.

I didn't know you were participating as well!

Really cool idea. 

Awesome game. Reminds me of SmashTV meets SuperHot. Very fun to play

Definitely a way to make bullet hells more strategic and fun. The new gun I found was a satisfying progression. I agree with the other comments about music and hit feedback.

I found the game very enjoying, the concept of tactical in a bullet hell and allow the player play at his pace is very appealing to me.

It took me a little to hang the fire control (it is better always being shooting) but not very much and the level design was very good made.

The only little drawback I found was the sound, a bit repetitive and annoying, a background music would had helped a lot, but I remember you said that cannot play background music in pygame so there is little to do there.

A very good submission!

Regards.

who would've thought that turning Super Hot into a small arcade game would be so fun :D  good job :D 

Overall I enjoyed playing the game. It was fun. The few things I would improve on are: (unless I missed it) a way to heal as I personally died super easy even without getting hit *a lot* and going from room to room without a way to gain hp made it hard.  The first gun you get feels weird to shoot, sometimes it shoots and sometimes it didn't and I don't know why.

Had a bug when I picked up a gun it crashed the game, only happened once so far but didn't give an error and I haven't tried reproducing the bug so might've been a once off.

Nice job though! :D Did you do all the pixel art yourself? I assume so, but either way well done ^.^

Really fun learning to master the main mechanic, actually felt like I had a chance unlike most bullet hells. Some hit feedback would be nice, on either end.
