Such a polished entry! Cute and creative as well. Being the bullet sponge is very empowering, but it sometimes felt hard to protect the smaller gladiators as they scattered. To add to the massive feeling of the player character, I think it would help if the enemies couldn't walk through him. This is already so well put together, but it would be cool to see it expanded upon!

How does your game fit the theme?
Our game reverses the roles of a bullet-hell action game by making the player run towards and absorb bullets & damage. The player's allies are the ones who kill the enemies, and it's the player's job to defend them by tanking damage and stunning enemies.
