Awesome game. Feels just frantic enough without being impossible. My high score was 6. Definitely think it needs some way of stopping you from leaving your bullet behind in a previous level though! Nothing worse than a game making you play past the point when you know you're basically already dead lol. Seriously though, well done - it's a great game :)

Simple and fun, It kinda reminded me of that little "Tanks" game on the Wii mixed with Smash TV, the fact that you can shoot through multiple ennemies is really satisfying, overall i'd say it has a good game feel in general, i also liked the little falling animation when you go in the wholes to go to the next level.
It's a bit hard and could use some re balancing though i think, the ennemies 's bullets are a bit fast.
Other than that i's quite good :)
Great use of the concept. I like the juice all the way through and using the walking to navigate the menus is a great way to introduce the player to the tunnels. I like the art especially the arm coming out. Since it is pretty unforgiving maybe you could look at having an extra menu item which returns them to the stage they were up to. This would let them progress through the game without redoing the start over and over while also letting you do an iron man run to show your mastery. Great effort for a game jam though, I think you have a good enough base that you can extend it :)
Hey I 'd like to play more time!

Fun concept! It's really hard, which I would think it's because of the speed of the game, which in addition to the small rooms, makes it fairly unforgiving. But, adjusting that, it's a very entertaining game!
This is most definitely the best "one bullet" game I have played this entire jam!
The mechanic is actually well developed and there are things that complement it such as the extending arm. Also the shooting and collecting felt natural and I didn't feel the enemies were stiff at all!
Good job guys this is quite nice!

Hey, we made a GMTK game too. Check it out!
Cool game! I already played a submission with this very concept, but I have to say that I think you have executed it better. For example I really like the arm, it is a cool addition. This way the bullet can't get stuck behind spikes or an enemy. I also really like the concept that you have to pay attention to always pick up your bullet at the end of the levels. One minor complaint is that enemies seem to be damaged by the bullet even if it is not moving. But if it is intentional it is fine.
Really fun game! I just hated wasting 4 seconds on Room 1 each run.
Nice game, very polished. Pretty hard, couldn't get past about level 4/5.
Nice and challenging game, would say there should just have a door open that leads you to the next area, rather then having to wait for a hole to appear, have it grow big enough to fall in, and wait for your character to land in the next room. It takes way to long and breaks the flow of this fast pace game. Also the bullet hurts enemies when the bullet just sits there, should be only when the bullet is fired that hurts the enemy.
Really fun game, I personally liked the speed of the character, maybe adding a key to slow him down would be a good thing.
a well made game with only a few minor problems. The game is a bit fast, and the controls a tad too slippery. But I love the animations, music and concept of it all. keep up the good work!
Progarmer: can you draw a German tank?
Artist: uhh, yah (draws flag on barrel)
