Did you work in a team?
Worked on everything by myself, it was pretty fun actually and helped me "hone my skills" in many ways

Was the resolution a challenge?
having to fit all the sprites into a 64x64 resolution was pretty tough, i had to strip away alot of details from alot of things, the hud also takes alot more space than i'd like it to, but it suits it i suppose

What did you learn?
i entered a jam because i haven't yet, and i learned alot from it, the start, middle, and the end part of this game especially was something kinda hard to overcome (motivation wise) but in the end im glad i submitted something

I like the idea a lot! My only complaint is the screen shake (bothers my eyes) but it's a small detail.

What a crazy idea for a game. You put a lot of work into this with the cool cutscenes and everything. Glad to see this amount of effort going into a story for the low rez jam. Great work!

sadly the first windows game I've encountered that would not work with wine on linux.  The screenshots look interesting, it would have been great to play a native linux or web version!

I could see if I could get a Linux version up. Check back in a few hours.

Wow, this game is brutal!

I liked the story - good work on cut scenes.

Gameplay-wise it reminded me Hotline Miami - the shooting part. Really juicy visual effects.

Music is kinda aggressive and that's really fitting the game.

Really good game! Very polished, quite long for a jam game and nice cut scenes. I especially like the musics. Well done!
