I shot all the cubes with my cube. Wish there were more cubes to shoot. Nice job using Hoot for this!
The lore simply did not prepare me for the majesty of the game itself! Liked that "bullet" had limited range, so you couldn't just stand off, but had to re-engage to kill 'em all off.
I felt uncomfortable with all the doll squares staring at me, so I shot them, but left one to sit with at the edge of the arena. I can’t leave, but I guess I’ll never be alone, unless I misclick.
The controls were very responsive!
The writing is honestly amazing, so much so I had to go read up on these guys https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cs%C3%B6rg%C5%91sapka
Game ran really smooth, I'll have to check out guile/hoot sometime. And I did thoroughly enjoy smiting all the squares. I didn't seem to take any damage though, and if I held 3 WASD buttons while pressing right shift, I would start gliding in a single direction. Maybe a secret sprint mechanic?
Either way, a great start to a top-down shmup with a great story. If you plan on doing jams in the future, consider continuing to bring this story to life, or possibly even do a text adventure.
Amazing lore
Thank you!
I am a bit afraid of looking at the other submissions, as people here are so talented! I have 6 days to get over it!
Hahaha, yeah it’s very impressive what people do with the time!
