Quite a good use of the 'move to shoot' concept, the addition of the barrels was a smart way to help balance things.

Could use a bit of balance tuning, but pretty nice!

Right-clicking to place a barrel directly in front of an enemy about to shoot was a pretty fun strategy.

Developer

Thank you for playing and your critiques.  I thought players would enjoy teleportation barrels in front of enemies

Nice game, but shoot to move is quite common

Developer

Thank you for playing. Yea I know its common  and there are probably a lot of games like that in this jam but it is something I haven't tried in game design

Took a little to get the hang of it. The reload after three shots was more stressful than fun.

Developer

Thank you for playing and the critiques. Thought it would add more of a challenge to have to reload but do you think if you had more than 3 shots (say 5) you would change your mind?

I think it would delay the stress a bit, little less ammo management.

this was out of control and a fun game

Fun game, and I can't help but think there was some form of inspiration from all of the shoot to move games from the GMTK videos. In terms of critique, finding a better or more creative way of getting information to the player is really important in games like these. Simple but charming UI goes a long way in giving a game its own feel. Generally, if a games UI looks like it could be made in a word document, it's not very good (effective yes, charming, not so much)

I also felt that limiting the bullets made the game not as enjoyable as it could have been, and well themed music always makes a game come alive.

Thank you for playing and your critiques. Sadly ran out of time for the music.
