I am now sweaty playing this game. I laughed so hard, played so many times! But the credits killed me XD
The satisfying box smash. Took me a while to figure it was homing, tried aligning the shots at the start. The cool colour palette and the background signifying the HP. The personality of the characters! Little baby is very evil. Please leave some game jam wins to the rest of us malek!

As usual, your games are so good. Especially considering the short timeline.
Simple controls made it super quick to pick up. The loop system made learning it easy enough. Randomization made it replayable.
Well done, my friend. Proud of you!
Cool game idea. The snake is a bit unforgiving (and is faster than the player). The randomizers are pretty fun. I feel like I suck at the game, I got to the end of loop 2 multiple times, and the end of loop 3 once but kept getting destroyed by the bullet gear thing. Even though the pattern is consistent, I kept getting caught.
Thanks for trying it! If you were struggling with it I added some assist options cause I wasn't sure if I made it too hard lol
(Also the snake isn't faster than the player but holding the baby slows the player down )
The game is fun, but I got dizzey because of the camera haha
Thanks for playing it :D
ps. Theres an option in the menu where you can turn the camera spin off if needed :)
a pretty good game but i have one suggestion… um i don’t know because it’s already perfect. i also made a jam game this time called loop track, if you have time to try it i would really appreciate it!!!
Great Game! Its challenging but fun, I really liked both graphics and sound. Play and rate my game to if u want to :)
I enjoyed this one! Especially the fact that you don't restart on the same boss might be a small thing, great job! The baby caught me off guard!
Nice game! Nice rush :)
I enjoyed this one so much! If you get the baby there's nothing you can do (in a way that is really hard), so fun to play!
thanks! (also you can stop the evil baby by picking it up lol)
Incredible looking and sounding game! Genuinely so much fun and challenging as well. Well done!
How did you manage to make this game so polished and fun? Great GREAT game, 10/10 would buy this as an actualg game on steam. (Even as somebody who's not very good at these type of games, I liked that I could add lives so it was still fun for me) Thank you! :D
Reminds me of Undertale. Amazing! 10/10 game juice.
Absolute blast! Definitely the most fun game in the jam for me so far. Huge fan of boss rush games and switching mechanics and adding twists to existing boss battles makes it really fun to replay. Super well polished, fun experience overall, great stuff across the board!
Nice game!
This one is really fun to play, and I like a creative take on the theme.
I like how throughout the bosses, you eventually learn their patterns and it'll help you know what you need to do within the new loop variant. Especially with the dark modifier, you already know what to expect from the bosses, so its not much of hinderance later on.
The polish on this game is also great, good use of squash and stretch and everything feels very satisfying. For a game in which you don't really do a lot differently content wise, it was still very enjoyable to throw the boxes at the bosses.
Obviously there is a lot of potential here for more designs, either having more bosses that get rotated in, as well as different loop modifiers. I think there would need to be some amount of structure to the fights to make it work outside of a jam, but nothing a little bit of tweaking cant do. Maybe each boss is its own level, but I do like how it switches between the bosses as you go.
You thought of a good idea for a short jam like this, since you can technically just keep adding loops on top of it for as long as you'd like until the time is out, and no matter how many you have the game isn't left any less unfinished.
Letting the player choose to have more health and different assist options is very good, since I think the most important thing to have for a game jam game is the ability for players who want to play your game not get stuck by not being able to. And these are nice additions to a game that can't really give out level skips.
Portrait mode seems to maybe sometimes make the snake one impossible not to take damage? Maybe I'm wrong and just bad at snake, but I think it'll cover the entire wall sometimes and you are forced to walk through.
Made it to loop 5 on my first try, is there anything big I'm missing?
Great work!
Thanks! Also portrait does make the snake much harder but to avoid it with portrait on you can move in an s like pattern so it takes up less space :)
rage game bullet hell i could play this for hours - really clean and intuitive design as well! with cute artwork amazing job! :)
Very fun to play! Love the cat in the credits.
Would love to play a version with music!
thanks!
(also there is music in the game?)
Oh we only got SFX when we played! I tired it again but no music on our side.
oof i think it might be a browser issue then, sorry about that :/
Best one i played so far, awesome entry, congrats!
Very fun entry, felt really smooth to play with simple yet effective aesthetics. I enjoyed the loop mechanics. Nice job !
Best one I played so far.
Very fun game! I loved the effects and all the juice, and every individual boss felt fun, unique, and polished. I think the idea of repeating the boss rush was pretty creative. The general rhythm, the spinning camera, and repeating fights are really conductive to really getting in the zone and focusing on playing which I loved. I also liked how crunchy the audio was. I think that the bosses felt very fair even playing them for the first time although I did have an issue with the third boss the first couple of times I played it that it was spawning on me without much warning, even just like half a second more warning to get out of the way would have been nice. Overall though, super fun, great job!
