Use of the limitation
In this game, this limitation is used both in the game flow, which is in the form of a bottom-to top shooter, and in the story, where the player is working their way up to the President's stomach through his intestines.
Cookies eaten
Too many.
Nice game! I really like the feedback when shoot the enemys, and the boss fight was so good!
But i have some bugs in boss fight, after defeat two hands the game crash =/
Would be interesting add some UI for life, so the player can see how much lifes rest.
Thanks so much for the Bug Report, we will be working on that as soon as possible! This boss has been the biggest game crashing issue all development long lmao
Also, there is an indicator of your life! When you get hit, the ship flashes white and its color changes to yellow or red. It also looks progressively more damaged.
UI has been a difficult thing, since I wanted to keep the screen as UI/HUD free as possible to make it more immersive.
Really fun game! I liked the visuals, music and gameplay. It's amazing that you managed to add a boss fight in a jam game. Very cool!
A health bar, some penalty if you let an enemy pass and more kinds of powerups (like a shield) could make it even better if you're planning on working on it after the jam.
The game froze when I was playing the boss level. I tried reset but it was still frozen. But it's a jam game, stuff breaks. :)
Overall very well done!
New version is posted, update log is here if you're curious:

Great Game!
Really liked the visuals and the background music. One thing I noticed is that the background seemed to not be moving as smoothly as the player or the enemies. Maybe it was intentional.
Apart from that, keep up the good work!
Nice game :) With very good pixel art graphics. I like weapon upgrades and diversity of enemies. The music fit to the speed of game. Unfortunately, the game was stuck on the boss fight :c Keep going :)
Ok, I will try my best. I played on the windows pc 10 on the firefox browser. I opened full screen and played once and killed by boss. Started again and take right upgrade get hit, get second upgrade after some time get hit so shot with basic bullet. I only shot into head and after x shoots one of the bullet stop on the head and game stuck, music played but game stopped. I waited maybe one minute, but nothing happened. Also, when I shot the last bullet, there were no boss bullets, but you can check like that scenario:
- You and boss were killed in the same time.
- Boss is in the "rest" stage when he dies
- Boss started special head attack/ special hand attack when he dies
I forgot One thing can be important, I all time hold space to shoot.
Nice submission! I like the theme and artstyle, and I always love to see a fellow Godot developer. The one think I would have liked to see is some kind of particle effects or animations when you hit an enemy. Other than that, this game is great!
I would be grateful if you could check out my submission as well :)
I really liked the art of the game, it´s pretty cool the variations of colors. Idk about the lore, but is kinda spooky (idk how to explain it) and i like it. i think is about the immune system fighting with something inside a person.
U should add some info ingame for the player, like a health bar, sounds when u get hit and maybe a different final animation of the bullet when u make damage to an objetive, just to difference when u doing something or not. I really liked the sounds u choosed and the music was pretty inmersive, idk where did u got it but is awesome. Best wishes now and, keep the good work.
wow great game, y'all are improving I remember no swimming past this point. Really liked the art style, upgrades, multiple levels, and the getting hit removes the weapon upgrades was a nice touch
Really great art and animation. The shooting sound got a little annoying after a while, but other than that, overall good experience great submission!
Great title screen, nice boss fight and I'm really happy that you had weapon upgrades. I got the reference at the end, haha!
The only feedback I'd give is that the game could be a little bit faster and there could be a bit more visual feedback for the hits (I know how jams go, though, it's crazy), but other than that, it was a really fun game, with a funny, unusual story. And it had a nice number of levels for a game jam. Great job!
I always like me some top down shooter action games. Would be nice to have a indicator on the last boss if he is taking damage but all well. Good job to you and your teammates on you game.
Very nice game! Could have some more variation with the enemies, weapons etc, but of course the jam was only 3 days. Well done!
Good stuff! The president was saved successfully with one death only. Very nice that the weapon can be upgraded. The weapon fire sound could use some little random phase-shifting since the player will keep firing and hearing it constantly, and a more powerful bullet impact sound would be cool. The graphics are neat though and it is very nice that the game allows both WASD and arrows control schemes.
Very cool and fun game overall. Good job!
Great game, wish the shooting was on space instead of left click but its fine
