very nice job on the art in your game. Was pretty hard to get the shot lined up perfectly to hit the three guys in a row near the end of the 2 room. I didn't try it on easy either so that might be why as well.

The characters and movements remind me a bit of Hyper Light Drifter. And having to repeat again and again the same level, knowing where the enemies are this time, feels like one of these time-loop movies.

It felt so much like a complete game. The mechanics, art, sound were all great. I really liked the challenge and puzzle to hit all targets in 8 bullets

I really liked the game, these animations, I also liked the graphics, the cutscene, although it is small, but still the same. For some reason, I don't care what boxes with cartridges or maybe with such opportunities, maybe they should be added. But in general I liked it!

Animation is super clean, reminded me of something like Hotline Miami, but with the limitation in place. The intro comicbook-style story worked so well for the theme also!

One minor detail that I really loved was showing the bullets remaining with a revolver style UI element. Something I feel that some professional games take the easy way out with.

That was fun. Aligning bullets to kill enemies was certainly a cool mechanic. Cool art and sound effects.

Very fun and looks great! Appeals heavily to the speed running niche. Could definitely see this as a full game with leaderboards for fastest times, least bullets used, etc.

Wow, this game looks good, looks like a true noir

I rated it perfect one of the few games in this jam that truly deserves winning :) 

please put an easy mode next time, this game needs to be seen by a wider audience to marvel at its beauty

I really enjoyed this game! The art style was really cool and the animations were absolutely incredible! The death animations were gorgeous (and I know how hard those are to make lol), especially they players. It's such a dramatic moment when the background fades to black and they fall to their knees, I love it! The game was also really fun! The challenge was very fun and I found myself playing the game over and over again to try and beat it. I did find two glitches, though. If you stand against the red barrier in the first level as far up as you can, one of the enemies shoots at you and the bullets appear to hit, but you take no damage. Also, when I entered full screen mode I was unable to move, and only sometimes are was I able to once I left it afterwards (I'm playing on a windows with a small screen size, in case that helps you fix it).

The game was a very interesting puzzle shooter with a cool aesthetic. I was frustrated (in a good way) when I ran out of bullets or time but I was able to complete the full set of levels in the end. There were a few wacky behaviors with the spinning enemies but other than that the game was great. Would like to see a longer version of the game in the future!
