It was a very cute and fun game. I enjoyed it very much! Also, the little robot was adorable!!!
This was a really fun to play top-down shooter! I loved rounding the viruses up and releasing the super weapon upon them.
Great game. Fun shooter with good level of difficulty.
(Some extra keys to fire would be great for trackpad users.)
Very polished game! Each weapon felt satisfying to use. I loved the enemy art.
I have less than 10 seconds left to go. The game is quite exciting, but from my observation, I see that the virus will mainly occur on the top. It would be much safer to stay on the bottom.
This was me during this game jam. Just killing bugs lol. I think the UI was a bit rough difficult to quickly see what was doing what. And I wish there was a way to cycle to the weapon I wanted immediately but I really liked the game. I think a thing I tend to lose in these new vampire survivor likes is that we lose the ability to aim so I really appreciate that in this game. And I liked that the different weapons were actually like different and useful in different situations. When everything was so close the scatter was really great. But the penetrating shot was definitely my favorite. Finished the game :) would've been cool to have an upgrade mechanic of some sort beyond just the pickups but I understand it's a jam but very cool game :)
Excellent - loved it and finished it on 3rd try. Perfect hardness for a game jam. Gave you almost perfect scores.
Simply loved it, we're within the theme, it's enjoyable and simple !
Fun - Really great arena shooter game! I loved that I had all of the weapons to begin with, they just cost extra points to use. Really forced me to strategize as the game went on.
Theme - Definitely on-theme. The little robot dude was the best!
Aesthetics - Cool pixel vibes. Really enjoyed the retro feel.
Music - Fit the frantic tone of the game perfectly! Really helped keep my heart rate up as those tougher viruses spawned!
Sound - Right up there with the music - sound hit the spot nicely.
Mechanics - Pretty straightforward mechanics here. Solid, battle-tested, well implemented.
Story - I dug the concept of blasting viruses in a computer. Very cool.
Overall - Fun and challenging! I liked the strategy in swapping weapons on the go. It made it way more intense! Great work.
Really fun game. I think this could be something awesome and expanded on with what you have currently. Great work!
