Use of the limitation
We allowed the player to touch things with their mouse which they normally wouldn鈥檛 be allowed to, giving them an advantage by cheating the normal gameplay loop

Cookies eaten

Wow I am so entertained by the start menu! That was not only original but also very cool and smooth. Also nice that you can already control the ship in the menu. The game itself was basic and good and in the arcade times it would of been an absolute hit! I would of wanted to shoot the bullets faster (so faster recharge) but the cheating feature made it possible to kill the enemies when you were out so I like how you balanced that out to make the cheat a necessary feature. 

  Great game for 1 week time.

Developer

glad you liked the game! (one of the cheats was to actually drag the bar downwards to make it recharge faster ;D spoilers!) we had a lot of fun making the start menu too, thanks for playing and rating!

oh cool! Then you can choose then which way you want to cheat :p

My most favorite entry so far!

Very clever use of the limitation and very very VERY polished game for a 7 day game jam!! I also loved the artwork and how everything is so glitchy!

Developer(+1)

thank you! I'm glad we achieved the vibe we were going for!

Submitted(+1)

That was pretty simple, short, but highly polished game. Good job.

Developer

The game is a lot of fun and it's funny how you can click and move things.
Cool graphics, Cool gameplay, Nice music.
Yeah nice little game which you can sometimes just play.
Developer

thanks!

i really would like to know how you guys did the crt effect i thought it looked great. the cheat was very inventive, the only suggestion or idea would be to increase that tilt for infinite ammo. there isnt much critique on this though its really well done

Developer(+1)

thanks for the feedback! at first we were thinking of making the ammo actually infinite, but we eventually decided to try and keep ammo usage still a little more strategic. But I can see now that maybe making the tilt a little faster would be more fun, glad you enjoyed the game!

Wow, It's criminal you guys aren't #1 most rated, everything's completely on point! I was going to leave a comment that more enemy types might be the only suggestion and then like 4 more just bust into the game lol. 10/10 for sure.

Developer(+1)

thank you so much! xD yeah at the beginning it's literally just basic enemies, then all the rest just come in at once haha

First, let me commend you for your graphical brilliance, the graphics look super polished and feels like it is jumping out of the screen and saying 'play me'. Voice acting is also great!

A very clever use for the limitation and definitely a great proof of content!

And reiterating what another commenter said, I am also a sucker for bullet hell games (my submission is also a bullet-hell) so it was nice to find another one in this jam to get a new perspective on how one would cheat in a bullet hell!


Big props to you and your team! Game On!

Developer(+1)

thank you so much! It means a lot to me and my team that you like the game :D

I got a high score of 2952, love the visual and sound design. And your use of the limitation was super clever. Bullet hell games have a special place in my heart <3

Developer

Waow 2952 is high :p impressive (or maybe I just suck) 馃槅 thank you for the nice words it means a lot!

Submitted(+1)

I cheated :p

Developer

:o no way!!! that was completely unintentional

Submitted(+2)

i have NEVER laughed at a Exit menu, this has got to be hands down one of the most creative entries during this jam!! You nailed the sound design aswell as the visual style and the voice acting added a whole new dimension to the game! So many mechanics and gags caught me off guard, and it was all done so incredibly well!!
Great job! a really fun game that subverts all kinds of expectations!!

Thank you so much 馃槉 reading these comments has made our day and I鈥檓 glad you found the menu funny :D

Submitted(+2)

Nice game, with a funny intro!

Developer

Thanks! I鈥檓 glad you enjoyed it :)

I love the UI in the menu that made me laugh :) The cheat makes it much easier but still has a challenge to it. Excellent work!

Developer

Thank you! We definitely tried to make it as balanced as possible as to not break the game with cheats :p
