Ok, low key, all three of us got a little addicted to this game. It's really well done and a lot of fun! I think using teleportation to travel is not only a great mechanic and challenge but awesome use of the theme. Upgrade mechanics are great. The fast retry system makes it easy to play over and over. Also the weapon upgrades are super helpful! I like how the cardinal shot and piercing combine if you upgrade both.
The only two things I'd suggest is for one thing, it'd be nice to see more assortment in enemies along the way. Even if there's no difficulty difference, just some visual variety. Also, the upgrades came up a little too quickly. Maybe making the levels a little longer to really get into it, before using that well earned upgrade.
Really well done with this!

Thanks for the extensive feed back. Plus the fact that you gave me possitive + negative. That helps me improve a lot. As for the number of enemies and upgrades that was all i could manage do chuck in for the 3 days. I'm going to iterate a bit more on the game after the jam has ended so I'm going to put some more variety.
Great game loop and aesthetic. I like how simple and intuitive the controls are. No need for a long explanation, because the UI speaks for itself. This is probably the best use of upgrades I've seen so far, where deciding which one to go for is actually a pretty tough decision. Awesome job
Love the art and the gameplay is really fun, the upgrades really add to the replayability! This would be a great mobile game as well! Great work, would appreciate it if you could check out my game too :)
Wow what a fun game! I really enjoyed playing, and I felt like even someone who generally sucks at playing games can have a lot of fun with this! Looks beautiful and plays wonderfully.
Very cool game, I think the idea was very unique to what I've played so far. Definitely a tough game though with a good challenge.
Nice game, also quite simmilar to mine :). It would be cool to have enemies that attack differently(e. g. shoot you)
This game was great! Can't believe I'm the first comment! The teleport to doge and attack is a great combination! I really enjoyed the upgrade system too! It has some fantastic rogue-like elements. I loved the pixel art and really enjoyed this game a lot!
