Cool atmosphere here ! I love the statistics move up and move down every time, it's super cool feedback :D

Yesterday you left a comment at my game I can’t for the life of me understand why you were not laughing in my face! Your game is so much cooler. It stressed me out in a good way because you know it’s random if you are going to kill those ghosts or not. Especially when the party popper goes of five times in a row, then you don’t shoot for a full three seconds (which feels like three months) and then you shoot a bomb which goes through the ghosts!

Another hilarious moment was when the gun shot both a bomb and a normal bullet within seconds of each other, causing the bullet to ricochet off of the bomb into my face. I was not even mad it cost me a life. It’s my own fault for picking up that cursed gun.

Now I understand why you advised me to add music. It fits the scared/stressed running around while still being cartoony perfectly. The game looks really polished and I dig the art style. Your whole page is very polished. Thanks for allowing me to play the game. Had a lot of fun!

Nice job! The random bullet switching mechanic was really cool and the graphics had a nice style. Well done! :D

Even more bullet types would have been nice. Aside from that, you have made great visuals !

The information on the screen of what is going to fire feels pointless, since I cant choose when to fire.

Since I cant control my offense at all, i feel like all I'm doing is running away, and that wasn't very fun.

I love the models though. Such neat little guys.

Incredible work, great graphics and gameplay feels very smooth. Would love to see some extra features added post jam to add some variation to the gameplay. Keep up the good work 👍

Gorgeous game! Very fun.

Graphics are so cool, the music and the sound effects too. As someone mentioned before, power ups would be fun to add! Congrats, the idea is also very original, I liked the confetti.

I'm getting some Luigi's mansion vibes from this game, and the color palette is cool.

The art style is great! Love the music and sound effects too. And the projectiles that your gun fires are just amazing, especially with the counter in the bottom right.

Only thing that kind of bothered me was your own projectiles hurting you. I feel like that wasn't conveyed very clearly to the player and caused my first death to be very confusing. Also sometimes you can poop out a bomb and a bullet which then bounces back instantly to hurt you, without you being able to do anything about it. At the same time, dodging your own stuff does add another layer to the game, so that's good!

Maybe an idea would be to not have bullets hurt you in the first second or so that they spawn, so it's always in your control and your fault if you get hit. Still an awesome game though, I had a lot of fun, good job!

Love the art style of your game!! Well done

The game looks great!  You should add power ups!

Bullets get stuck in air every now and then, but graphics are fun! Especially the updating ammo probability charts in the corner
