I used existing sound effects for the portal sound when enemy spawns but couldn't find any author for it. Everything else I made myself

Great job finishing the game and to your first game jam submission. It's a fun game and I really enjoyed it. I thought it was very inventive to make every bullet cost money.

Neat game, shooting weaponised money felt pretty good.

Normally I'd suggest being able to hold down the fire button, but in this case where bullets are money and is not plentiful, it makes sense not to.

I found myself quite low on cash at all times despite trying to conserve ammo. It could be nice to have an influx of money come from destroying a portal.

The lighting on bullets was a very nice touch that did quite a bit for the aesthetic.

All in all, nice job :D

Cool game. Shooting feels awesome. Nice job!

Cool little game! I really enjoyed the fact that instead of ammo you have dollars, that was a really nice touch.

Love the theme, the game feel and Unity URP. Bullets are so very much beatiful. Nicely done.

Thanks heaps! I didn't have know much about render effects so it was fun playing around with bloom and shaders.
