Did you work in a team?
I was alone, still fun tho
Was the resolution a challenge?
Not really, besides not being able to explain things in text. Drawing pixel art for such a low resolution was a fun challenge
What did you learn?
This is the first time I enter a jam that is longer than 2 days. I had a lot of time to learn new stuff instead of trying to apply what I already know as fast as possible. Also as it turns out non-spaghetti code makes everything else 10 times easier :]

Loved the game, musics are great, gameplay is very fun too! It took me like 7 or 8 deaths to get to the end of the game but I wouldn’t say the game is hard. Well done!
This was very very intense for me. The gameplay was... pretty good. I feel like the music made me anxious as hell, but that's probably the intention. Great job with this. Graphics were pretty good. The music might've been a little too repetitive, but that probably added to the anxiety, so... IDK if i have any useful feedback.
The green guys. Way easier if you just stand up and run back and forth until they shoot, and then you take your shot and then start moving again. Was that the intention?
Gotta say pretty well made, nice and original mechanic also death screen looks like amogus lol
Good and pretty hard shooter! I loved the music. I think that you should have added saving.
Nice mechanics and quite challenging. Game plays well and the oppresive atmosphere is really good. Nice job, music and sfx fit the game and the general tone of the action. Fun to play, overall a very good entry.
Amazing game, really fun and polished! I accidentally skipped all text in between levels because I was quickly shooting every time I moved but that's ok. Great job!
text just says "level complete, press any key", thanks for the feedback :]
Wow, very cool game! I like the tension and pressure when you trying to aim and not to be caught. Music adds the atmosphere too! Thank you for the game)
I thought it was very hard to beat the green guys until the gray guy came along and made me close the game. You made a very successful game. its music, art style, gameplay mechanics, it's integrated with everything.
gray guy is the final boss you were so close :P
thanks for the feedback
Congratulations on making this game ! I've played your game during a live that you can watch here :
The live is timestamped so you can go directly to your game.I hope the feedback and live reactions will be useful. Keep it up !
thank you for playing the game! your gameplay and feedback was really insightful
Your welcome it was my pleasure.

Great work altogether! I think adjusting the difficulty so the AI aiming is a bit less punishing would really let the core mechanic shine by giving the player fulfilment in the power fantasy. I thought the sound and music complemented the gameplay nicely, and the duotone sprites gave the graphics a unique look!
The gameplay was a little bit hard for me, and i don't think the music fits well. I really loved the graphics though. Overall a fun game. Maybe some difficulty adjustments would serve the gameplay well.
I really love the music! Graphics are nice too! I like how you communicated information to the player.
Interesting take on a shooter game. Being able to set my own pace as I move from cover to cover was a clever design choice considering the limited screen space in this jam!
Really good use of a limited screen area for this type of game. Happy you included the "tip" on the page as I didn't work out what was going on until I read "Enemies will aim down the last position they saw you" - then I could see the lines being projected and it made sense. I felt like such a dummy.
Great entry!
Awesome game! Hiding the cover and shuffling around feels very good, not to mention the polish and attention to detail. The artstyle and sound design are pretty good too. Great job!
That was some tense gameplay! I dig the accuracy mechanic and how it’s conveyed graphically. Great submission!
It was a great game! I loved the mechanics. My only complaint that the nightclub level was too hard.
That last boss was super hard :D fun original game! You called it a demo and I agree this would make a great full game! :)
thanks, hopefully one day :]
All around an awesome game! Well executed with a simple but challenging mechanic. I tore through the levels
Amazing game, all fives! I couldn’t tear myself away until the very end, the atmosphere made me forget about the low resolution. Very well done!
