looks simple but the reality is more complex

This game is not about outplaying enemies it's about not outplaying yourself. Great game nonetheless!

Great game! Honestly, my bullet was the worse enemy. I've played many bullet games but I think your's is the best I've played so far! It's pretty difficult though but other than that, wonderful game!

Good Idea, the minimalist style and sound do wonders; I feel that the design of the red circle with cross enemy is a bit bland and doesn't really fit with the rest of the game (also having be a different color from your player would be great). I think you could have swap the "R" retry with a "X" to really help with the flow of restarting :)

Good job :)

Nice physics game, and very unique idea that you can redirect your bullet, the difficulty can be smoother tho.

Pretty tough game, although i think that it would nicer if it start easy then ramp up harder.

Developer

Thank you for playing!
It would make the start a bit easier, but it would mean having to replay through a slower beginning to try to reach harder levels, which we didn't want. Right now, everytime you die, you can reach again the harder levels quite fast if you take risk, but you can also be more careful, which takes more time, but lower the relative difficulty.

The gameplay is really smooth and the concept works well, it's a bit hard, I couldn't get past 4 points. I didn't like the "music", but it's fun anyway, well done !

Fun Cute little game. Cute in the sounds, but super difficult! also the comments on the level end are so mysterious :P Well made! Don't stop working on it.

That's a really nice entry.

A good performance in terms of "Easy to learn, Hard to master", i enjoyed trying it and dying a lot.           
The art is simple yet efficient and supports well the type of game you did.

Nice work overall ;)

The game is almost fun, but because your bullet is too fast and it also kills you it quickly becomes frustrating.

Developer

Thank you for playing anyway!
Dying over and over to get better is fun for some, frustrating for others, and I perfectly understand.
I hope you still had fun!

That game is tough as a nail :D you need really strong reflex to avoid your own bullet!

But the game is really cool. Everything is really snappy and tactile and that screen effect with the DOS like text is just perfect.

Great work.

A peculiar game with decent idea. The only thing I don't like, that the bulet can kill the player. I think it's pretty hardcore and without it the game doesn get worse.

Fun concept! It's not verry easy, but really creative :D

I'm really bad at this game, but I really love the idea of it! It's a simple little mechanic with a fun twist on it but how much you can do with it is pretty cool. Challenging and addictive. The mood and aesthetic is also really on point.

Excellent ! I only could get a score of 7 as the game is very difficult but it was very fun and challenging ! I tried to orientate the bullet so it sweep all the screen like we do in breakout but it always end up killing me more often than the enemy ^^ I liked that you can have different strategies (let the bullet move as it want or take the risk reorientate it) and also the retro mood of the game with good visual and sounds ! Very good job !

Developer

Thank you very much for your review!
Yes, I think there are trajectories you can use to be more effective in certain situations, you can sometimes choose to site behind an enemy and attract the bullet, or just guide a chaser toward the path of the bullet !
The game is simple but you can get better and better at it to try to go further!

Well done, the mechanics are very fluent, fits the theme. Don't have much to add.
