It was very slip n slide-ey but I personally had a lot of fun slipping around for a bit. Was a bit odd to throw wherever I was facing, rather than towards my mouse, though it was fun regardless. Your ammo being the same as your health was a nice touch. I quite like the overall environment of the game as well!

Great idea, perfectly fits the jam's limitations. Visuals are nice. Cool sound effects, no music tough. 

Controls could use quite a bit more love. Inability to aim while throwing, and the floaty character are the main issue.

Fun game! It was a bit hard for me to do the movement and aiming with one stick, it could be nice to have them separate.

The game also had a black background for me, which made it hard to tell where I could move.
