Heya, this was a pretty cool game, the rock music actually.. surprisingly.. fits! I have a lot of good things to say so let's go through them:
1) Damn good gameplay. It's simple, it's clean. Shoot to stay afloat, shoot to kill, shoot to evade. All encompassed under 1 mechanic, and most importantly; it feels GOOD to play. Absolutely brilliant!!
2) The sound is actually quite good. It gives the gun a lot of OOMPH, especially since the guy is literally propelled by the gun. I think if you have screenshake everytime you fired the gun, it would really help sell the game feel here and add a LOT of juice.
Some major gripes are:
1) Inconsistent resolution for the pixel art background and foreground elements. It's honestly quite minor, but it's definitely going to be a barrier of entry to polished games if you plan to take this further than a prototype.
Otherwise, I love the game! It doesn't quite fit the theme in my opinion but it's good fun!
Wow it's tough ahah, but I enjoyed it !!
Not much to say, congrats.
Really fun game, I was surprised at first but after few tries, you get used to the gravity and you can make nice moves.
Nice, would have loved to have some audio, and the resolution was very odd, but besides that great game
Yeah, I definitely agree haha, but y'know time constraints and all that.
oh there is audio though, I know that sometimes the first time it runs it won't play with audio though due to antivirus conflicts.
Ahhhh ok when I come back during voting Ill make sure I hear it :)
