Intense game. I included it in my Wowie Jam 2.0 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Nice game! felt super well put together and reminded me of pac-man. i liked the commentary from Cyrus

I enjoyed this game! Adding a leaderboard would be sick :D, it was pretty cool mix of Will You Snail and Pac-Man! I wish for the Jam though that there was an objective, but overall everything was really well done!!

Developer

I did start implementing a leader board, it is in the top left but I ran out of time to finish it unfortunately. I will revisit this project in the future tho and do so.

Fun game! Many cool effects too.  I liked the glitch log UI, was cool knowing exactly what was happening!  Great job submitting a game, pls try mine if you have time.

Nice game, great reference to Will You Snail haha. Not sure what the objective or controls were though, it isn't made clear, and there's so much stuff going on in the menus that is hard to keep track of.

Developer

Very Nice Pac Man Like, I am a big fan of PacMan. I Like yours, just a little bit to heavy to control. Good Job.

Developer

Thanks for the input :) I hope to revisit this project latter and polish it up a bit. I really enjoyed working on it.

Developer

I thought it was a good fit and an AI face in the middle too. Glade you enjoyed :)

Great game but take me a while to understand what I was doing xD Very nice graphics! It's very good! Congratulations! If have a time and can, check mine please :) I will be very grateful!

Developer

Thanks, I ran out of time to implement a tutorial unfortunately.

I will definitely give your game a look.  Playing as many of the entries as I can.

The game is quiet cool i liked it loved the distorsion effect

It's a bit loud in the sound department, but cool visuals. I'm not sure of how to play really, but I managed to get 450 points after a number of tries lol! ^ ^

I didn't know what to do and my keyboard have broken up arrow so I didn't play much longer. Sounds are great but why you didn't mak wsad

Developer

I am glad you liked the sound.
I picked arrow keys because not every keyboard has WASD in the same place.
I have updated it so you can now use WASD to move if you want to give the game another try.
Collect Blue pills to get faster, collect red pills to gain projectiles, space to fire and survive as long as you can.

I would have liked to put more information into the game on how to play but I simply ran out of time.

Thanks for your comment. :)
