This is a very good game, I like that at some point I started to shoot all over the place as a defensive strategy.

Good job!

Submitted

But are they really "forever"? lol

Developer

Thanks so much for playing on your stream!

Submitted

Really fun to play! It might be interesting to have obstacles in the center of the level then you could use the walls to shoot enemies on the other side.

Developer

That's a great idea! I'm for sure going to re-do this game after the jam and try and flesh it out a little more

Submitted

I really liked this! The risk/reward concept with more bullets in the arena worked really well. One problem I usually have with games in this genre is that there's no good reason not to be constantly spamming the shoot button, but in this game there's a real reason to switch between shooting and not shooting. Really well-done!

Submitted

I beat it! This is a concept that just works super well for heaps of reasons. I really like all the implicit advantages and disadvantages to having more bullets on screen, and making them act as your score multiplier was legit the most genius idea to make the most of that mechanic. Really cool arcade shooter, as a full game with a bunch of upgrades and enemies and content I'd totally pay for this.

Developer

Thanks for the kind words! I definitely want to change some aspects and try and explore this idea more in a full game post jam!

Submitted

Mo bullets mo problems but also mo score. Life is hard

Submitted

Awesome concept! Really love the idea of making the game harder for you to gain more multiplier. 

The art-style didn't resonate with me that much - but gameplay is very solid!

Submitted

Great bullet hell and dodging. The shooting doesn’t target my mouse correctly?

Developer

Might be a bug, haven't experienced that personally so I'm not sure what the problem might be. Sorry about that!

Submitted

No problem, since the bullets bounce I just kept dodging and the bullets would kill them. :P The real enemy is your own bullet ^^

Submitted

This was really well realized!
The bees were super annoying but I don´t think that´s a bad thing :D

Loved the reflectve enemies!

Submitted

This game really blown my mind, it is just so much amazing, you truly nailed it.

Submitted

This is a really cool idea. You weren't joking about the difficulty, but maybe a slightly smaller cooldown between shots at the start would make it a bit more manageable

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I'm definitely thinking of making some changes and releasing a full post jam version

Submitted

Wow thats one of my favorite games out of the jam so far, no idea why it has so little ratings

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks that's so kind! I'll check yours out!

Submitted

Thanks (our gameplay is kinda rough so dont except a smooth experience)! Did you post the game in the discord or something? If not I think you should because the game is wayyy too good for this number of votes

Developer

I did post it there, but i'll try to get it out somehow!
