This was a great entry! While I wouldn't say the concept is super original, the execution is well done, and the upgrades and  boss fights made this a lot of fun to play. I ran into a game-ending bug though -- after fighting (and dying) to the spider boss, I ended up spawning underground and was unable to move or act, basically wiping my progress. Nice work though!

Thank you for playing, I'm sorry about that bug :( 
I tried to crush all the annoying bugs I could, but I guess some of them still snuck in. I'm glad you enjoyed it though.

Absolutely amazing game. fits the topic really well and the bosses were all very unique from one another. I really enjoyed playing this, great job!

This is a cool game! The controls took some getting used to but I enjoyed the retro feel of it. Nice work!

I love the idea and the design is great but there is speed to grinding

I really liked this. the only i have to say is that the early grind is intense. once you get the shotgun it gets better. but its rough until then. 

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I am still working on the game, so I'll be adding a few new enemies soon, some of them will be easier to kill. I agree that the grind is a bit too much  for the first half D:

Nice game, but sadly it's not really playable with the mouse but only with the Keyboard. Maybe built in a option, so people can choos if they want to play with controller or mouse and keyboard because most of people are playing only with mouse and keyboard. But respect that you put in the effort to implement it.👍

Developer

I tried to implement retro controls, sort of like the original Metroid. I'm sorry if the controls weren't working for you, I tried my best to balance it out. Thank you for playing though, I hope you enjoyed it regardless.

Sadly the game can't be started in the browser using a keyboard.

When I press Spacebar in the browser to jump my website scrolls down :( tried a lot but it just doesn't work. Any suggestions? Fullscreen doesn't work either

Developer

Try to press F11 when in the game, that should force it into fullscreen. I hope this helps, sorry for the issue.

Developer

I will upload a downloadable version of the game later tonight, that should fix the issue.
