It’s a promising start, but as others mentioned, it feels kinda bland, since you can get by with only mashing one button.

Adding enemies being able to come through your barrage will spice it up nicely, plus a second attack.

All in all quite a good start for the time given!

ohh, this jasm is full of great game. it was not every retroplatform jam so. i think i have deserved with my game the last place. for the next retro jam i put much more effort

The game is too flat.

The background graphics are uninteresting, the characters are OK.

The stages repeat after a while with just a palette swap.

The gameplay suffers a lot as there is no challenge. Press the rapid fire and wait the enemy to come if he is alone or choose the height of the first. Move around if they get close together as you hit only one, and repeat.

Music on the other hand is really good.

I wish you had the time to work on it a little bit more on the last 9 days.

Nice to see a NES game. This one still kinda needs work. It's ok at best. Gameplay is just simple brawl of repeatitive enemies. I was curious to move further to the later screens but suddenly died from one such enemy and started from the beginning.

it is only a simple brawler game, it is the first one i made. I made for NES only top-down and jump'n'run
