What's here feels well-scoped for a short jam, and the narrative framing is cute.
As the game currently stands, any moment is much the same as any other moment, and without something on the HUD to indicate how much time has passed, it's hard to maintain any sense of accomplishment.
The assets used are cute as well, but I feel like a slightly lower camera angle would do a better job of showcasing them.
If you were looking to expand the game at all, making the different coloured enemies take multiple dashes to defeat and/or move at different speeds could help give some variation.
Thank you for the feedback. I definitely bit off more than I could chew for the game jam but I’m glad that I was able to submit something by the deadline.
I agree with you on all the feedback and will take all of that into consideration as I decide how to move forward with the game.
Choosing Rust and Bevy definitely had its challenges but I had fun working on this and want to see it through to completion and a much more polished state.
Glad to hear it's been a positive experience for you and in case it wasn't clear, I'm glad you were able to submit something too!
Best of luck!
