It's like Vampire Survivors, but the deaths actually feel rewarding. The music is great, too. The difficulty ramps up quickly, but the upgrades end up feeling really satisfying in the endgame. I also liked being able to stack multiple upgrades from the same tree. It was great overall
Overall a decent survivor type game, I liked the graphics. The difficulty racks up fast, movement speed seems to be crucial, yet it is tied to survival time - maybe smaller increments for upgrades tier in the beginning would be better? It was unclear to me when points were earned - it didn't seem to be tied to any single achievement. Health upgrades didn't seem significant, as there was no health bar, I didn't feel that they contributed to longer survival. For the first playthrough sounds were absent, they turned on on entering upgrade menu.
Super cool pixel art and creative use of emojis as icons! Gameplay started to get repetitive in the late game. I imagine it would benefit from making some of the buffs faster to collect (especially the movespeed one). Regardless, it was one of the cooler games I've seen this jam. Nice work!
The music was fire and the background art looks really good. Apart from that it's fun to play tho the difficulty racks up fast :]
Nice game! The background is what catch my eyes the most xD. The game itself is quite simplistic, not to say utilizing Emojis as skill icons (never thought I would see a game like that, but now that I think of it, makes much sense)
I enjoyed the game a lot!
Cool game! Was good fun. The upgrades felt really good to unlock and stack. I didn't finish it as the difficulty curve climbs very fast, but had fun regardless!
Solid execution, it plays well without any issues. Good job!
Nice survivors-like game! Liked the visuals!
I like how you found a balance between giving the player some free buffs, but at the same time still having them to work to unlock some of the upgrades (e.g. movement speed, surviving 60 seconds is not that easy haha). I had a lot of fun playing, nice entry :D
Fun survivor-like. I love the achievement-like unlock criteria for the upgrades.
I also like the filter on the music while in the menu, that’s such a neat effect.
Thanks for making this!
