How does your game fit the theme?
Hoarder's Curse reflects the meaning of the phrase "what goes around, comes around". You are the captain of a boat delivering your loot to the cursed island, but every time you do so the curse of the deep remembers here you've been through. Dodge and enjoy this little pirate bullet hell we made for you!

Cool concept. If you plan to keep on developing this game, maybe add bullets that follow you? and pick-up powers. That'd be cool.
I feel like you've got a lot of potential here, the idea of leaving a trail to make your future runs more difficult is really interesting. I found that the interval between the bullets being created was a bit too short, and instead of it becoming a bullet hell they were just too close together to the point where the only way to get through was to simply damage boost. With some extra types of bullet shooters I think you could have a really interesting bullet hell game, great work!
Thank you very much for that feedback. We are working on adding different types of bullets and ships to make it more dynamic and bullet-hellish!

The game just crashes when i try to play it :'(
What operating system are you using? Did you try right-click run as admin ? Do you see any kind of error?
Mine is Windows 10 and i did try to run it as admin, however a popup says that a "fatal crash" happend
Strange, I try on different Windows operating systems and it does not crash. Do you have Mac or Linux, I can create a build for those OS if you like.
I know what is happening, you have a custom build of Unreal Engine? If that's so, try a computer that does not have UE installed. That should fix the problem.
There was some really cool presentation here you artist did a great job. it's also cool seeing the trails of my decisions and actions haunt me as I continued to experience the game, not much else to say really this was a pretty fun entry!
Thank you very much for playing our game! We are working on improvements and a lot of variations, following ratings! Follow us to stay up to date.
Let me know if we haven't played your game, so we can do it and rate it :)
I love the menu animation, it's so simple but has a great effect!
Our main artist https://coldglance.itch.io/ did a great job there! We love his work and dedication! Make sure to follow us, so you dont miss a thing!
I like the interpretation of the theme! Has a good vibe and difficulty management.
Tank you very much for playing our game, make sure to follow us! We are working in a new version that will be released shortly after ratings.
It's not bad. Making your path your problem in the future is a good idea.
But I found small problem. You can just damage boost to the island. If you just make the map bigger or (and) the invincibility frames shorter, this problem will go away or be less noticeable.
We are thinking the same thing! Thank you very much for the feedback. We are working on a new version shortly after the ratings. Follow us to stay in touch with development.
Very impressive for 4 days even for a team and very cool concept. The UI does feel a little out of place tho imo. Can you also rate my game?
Thank you for playing, surely I will play yours!
I was able to make it to trip 12. Pretty clever to have projectiles spawn based on the path you took the previous round. Seemed to me that the strategy is to go vertical as much as you can since that is how the projectiles are moving, becomes pretty hectic otherwise. Good job!
I am the only programmer, and it is difficult to implement everything that was planned. We are adding more different types and patterns for the bullets and different boat and ship types. So a bullet hell where you make your path. Thank you very much for playing and the feedback :). Try to beat your high score.
