  • Funny enough, I am not typically a bullet hell kinda guy, but this one was so fun I walked away really enjoying it! Gameplay was very solid. The rouge like system of upgrading yourself and improving for the next round is just so fun to mess around with. Everything was pretty simple to understand, but all had some depth to them for you to learn and actually engage with. Like how healer cells having a delay in healing you, or how the warrior cells would move around and scout on their own, meaning its usually better to follow them. Presentation was simple and easy enough to follow/read, and that's especially good for a game of its nature. I loved what it does wit the theme of dividing your attention to multiple outlets and aiming to survive. Only complaint I could muster is maybe it seemed to reach its peak too soon? After about 2 games, I got enough money to basically break it in half and get to level 34, and my laptop was actually dying lol. It' got so cluttered with so many objects and such that I didn't need to improve anything and could just sit around doing nothing. Not even a bad thing, doesn't really take away from the product, just something I noticed I was able to do. Being able to restart my save was a good move tho! Now I could go back and start from scratch for fun! I do kinda wish the healer cells shots homed onto you, at the expense of a higher cooldown or something. Maybe that would lead to the game being too easy after upgrades... Overall, easily one of the best and most polished titles of the Jam, great work, and keep at it as I feel this game has tons of potential to be something really cool if you stick with it.

Love the concept.  I really want to play it again when it gets a bit more polishing. 
Biggest thing for me is, it reminds me my screen resolution is way to low.  I could not see everything on the screen, even in full screen.

But I really like the sounds, graphics, and the idea. Literally divide cells, and conquer you enemies.

I would love to play this when it is honed. But right now i've got an issue. The warrior cells leave you sometimes and go far away lol, they just go to the nearest enemy even when that enemy is outside of the screen. They should be defending me, when this happens I get left just dodging bullets and enemies because the warrior cells are somewhere else. Though i still loved the idea of the game and the visuals

Great upgrade system. Some of the bullet mechanics had interesting visual cues which I thought was a nice touch.

Overall solid game
