Cool game! The visuals are nice and the concept suits the limitation well! Great work!

Developer

Thank you!

Loved the music! The graphics were also really good and the concept itself is extremely fun! Loved it :)

Developer

Thank you very much!

Interesting concept, I think some things you can improve is maybe allowing the turning of the player (and maybe the enemy) so you can shoot at them! Right now I have to be horizontal or vertical to the enemies and I feel like it would feel better without moving so much. This would indeed increase the complexity of the game but it would make it feel more smooth! Other than that, I think this game fits the limitation well (You are the cause of your own doom most of the time, lol) and good job!

Also unrelated to how the game was, on trying to open the application my anti-malware had blocked it so I had to have it as an exception (Not sure how to fix that).

Developer

Thank you for playing! I also thought about 360 degree rotation, but then the bullets will ricochet in all directions making dodging them almost impossible especially in the later levels. And yeah I also don't know how to fix that, this happens often when I play others' jam games and I just mark them as exceptions.

Hoooo! It's interesting! Cool! :)

That is quite hard, but cool game!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

It doesn't seem fair that only I can get hit by my own bullets. T_T

That was fun though. I could see it being really cool as a multiplayer game, with the ricocheting bullets and hidden mines.

Developer

Thanks, that's actually a pretty good idea! And yeah I thought so too about the ricochet, but given the sheer number of enemies in later levels they would be destroying each other very quickly with their own bullets.

Pretty nice game, like how you used the limitation, though it sometimes takes too long for bullets to go away.

Developer

Thanks! Yes, especially in the 4th level with narrow corridors. But I had to emphasize the theme so your bullets ricochet 8 times while enemies' bullets ricochet 4 times.
