How does your game fit the theme?
The classic shoot to move....only you can't control the shooting? Procedurally generated top-down shooter with roguelike elements . We were rushing to submit so there is no tutorial, how to play/item descriptions on the main itch page or in the comments. All art and music created ourselves. Sound effects were borrowed. Hope you enjoy!

Yes

We created all art during the game jam

Did your team create the audio for this game during the 48 hour time slot?

No

We used pre-existing audio

Loved It! I've seen a couple of shoot to move, but i belive this one might be the best executed!

Submitted

Cool game! The graphics of the game reminded me of Downwell a bit (I guess you wanted Mark to get interested in it since he played Downwell too :D). I got shocked when the game started because it had no menu haha! But the cooler thing is: I didn't even need a tutorial to get used to playing it! Though I gotta be frank there are a lot of games with the 'shoot to move' mechanic! Anyways, great job!

Submitted

Love how you jump right into the game! a nice take on the shoot+move mechanic. Having a cross-hair instead of the mouse cursor would be nice. enjoyed playing this!

Great fun! Great take on the classic rouge-like formula. The game felt fast pasted enough to keep me on my toes while being out of control enough to keep me guessing. The random map generation felt perfect with enough corridors and wide open spaces to provide a good mix of gameplay. Fantastic entry! 

My only complaint is that I can't resize the game window. I understand it's a jam version so I won't hold that against you, but if you wanted to keep building a browser version would be amazing!

I love the art style so much, and even though you didn't make the audio, the music you chose fit really well. :)

The idea for the gameplay is great, it's very difficult but that comes with the territory of these types of games, and I suck at normal bullet hell's, let alone versions where you can't control your character haha.

Only real feedback is to add a main menu next time, and maybe a quick screen between levels to give the player a moment to breathe. :) These are big quality of life improvements that can take a game jam game to the next level.

Otherwise great job, keep up the awesome work. :D

Hey thanks so much! We did actually make the music, it was just the sound effects that we borrowed :) And yes we really wanted to add a main menu/tutorial but 48 hours is hard :( Definitely going to update the game post jam!

Thanks for playing and taking the time to leave feedback. I'm really glad you enjoyed!

Super fun to play! Had a blast playing this! Great visuals and really clear mechanics which is brilliant! :D

Just to get them out of the way since they're running out of time issues: if you do end up adding a tutorial, I recommend making an interactive one rather than a text one, that will give the player a chance to get used to the movement and personally try out they powerups. Along with that, make sure to add a main menu. Moving on from those, I liked the art style of the game but it could definitely use some "juice" to make the game feel a bit more alive. The gameplay was pretty fun as well but It did still get a bit stale after a while, the powerups made a bit of a difference but I otherwise just kept doing the same thing. Overall you did a good job!

Submitted

I love it! The art is awesome and the overall game looks sooo polish! Once you get used to the player movement it runs really smoothly, and it feels fair and balanced. Really good take on the shoot to move genre. Well done :) 

Submitted

Really liked it! congrats!

Submitted

I liked the art and the music selection was good, I think if the game had more open areas it would cause a lot more hectic situations compared to those really tight corridors which make it easy to funnel some enemies :P other then that I enjoyed the game :D

Submitted

Really great presentation, the graphics and audio are just great! A great entry to the 'shoot to move' game genre, I like the back and forth between shooting and running. Very great job!

Submitted

The presentation was stellar and the game itself was very fun. Controls are a bit hard at first but once you get into it, the whole thing flows well.

However I think the spikes didn't add too much. For me personally it was difficult enough without them!

Fantastic little game, thoroughly enjoyed it.

Submitted

At the beginning it felt very frustrating, but after some practice it's fun. Also, I appreciate the effort for the (I guess) procedural generation

Submitted

Fun take on the theme. Gets a little hard to avoid damage depending on the situation, but that is half the fun of the game. I really liked the visuals. Nice job!

Submitted

REALLY FUN, LOVE THE WAY YOU GAVE DIFFERENT TYPES OF GUNS SO THAT PLAYER DOESN'T GET BORED.

JUST ADD A TUTORIAL TO START WITH.

Submitted

Very fun game with a very unique idea, a lot more interesting than the usual shoot to move! I really liked the art and overall polish, all I really saw that was missing was an animation or effect for when you damage an enemy. The game was but not very fluid and could feel quite awkward at times but this wasn't a huge issue since the combat felt fun most of the time. At some point in the game I started taking damage for no reason and died, maybe it was to do with the vampire teeth I had but since there is no item description I have no idea. If you add items with negative effects into the game, please at least explain them to the player. However, overall I really enjoyed playing the game and I hope you keep working on it, great job!

Great twist on the shoot to move idea! Well done!
