This is a great game, I love the enemy designs and the sort of roguelike gameplay. I found a bug where you get stuck in the wall after picking a side, and then you're able to go back and softlock yourself, so a restart button for the current level would be nice. Also, I think it might've been cool if for the upgrades you also had to "pick a side" and choose between 2 upgrades, just my opinion though.

Developer

Thank you so much! I never thought about picking sides between 2 upgrades; it sounds great, I’ll try to add it after the jam, thanks!

I ended up playing this for more than 30 minutes without realizing it. The gameplay is amazing and I love the art style

Great game! The visuals were both pleasing & perfectly geometric. I also appreciate how you show the enemy types and amounts for either side of the level in the starting room, which gives the decision more weight.

Developer(+1)

Thx! I thought about adding the preview of the enemy types at the last moment before submitting, glad to know that it didn’t go to waste :D

Easy to pick up and play!  The music matched the visuals very well, and picking what side to play on each level is a neat idea. great job!

Developer

This was a great idea! Maybe you can also later update it with many shapes! Also, there's a small bug I think you would be benefitted to know! 

If I stay at the closed gate at the beginning, I can stay on the other side and get trapped!


Developer

Wow, thank you for noticing the bug! I’ll try to fix it after the jam :D

I love the idea of picking a side to play based on the enemies! Very creative. I could tell that you took time to balance the two sides, which made the choice harder and more strategic. Having the player be able to upgrade each level is such a good touch as well. 
I liked the added spawnpoint enemies, so you had to focus on taking those out first and then cleaning up the rest. 

Developer

Thank you so much!!!

The art is amazing love the gameplay the only problem i have is that there is no audio indicator when the player gets damaged its it would be better if there was a small sound to tell when you got hit Good game tho

Developer

Thank you for playing the game and thank you so much for the suggestion!

The art is killing it. And the music too !
I had a hard time using the player hitbox which get easily stuck when ennemies are chasing me but I think I'm just bad :p

Thank you so much!

You’re not bad, I noticed this bug before but I didn’t get the time to fix it :p

Wonderful game, really well done! Matched the theme and nice design. I would love you to check out my game ,,Gravity Pick" aswell!

Developer

Thanks! I’ll try out yours

Bloody nice game dude, really smooth controls, nice graphics, but i felt like it was a bit too easy, and that the theme's interpetetion was kinda generic. Overall, good job :)

Developer

Thanks, dude!

Submitted(+1)

Your game is verrryy cool!
The controls are feeling nice, the difficulty is good, and your game is fitting with the theme!

Submitted

I did not mention the graphics/colors which are really nice ;)
