this game is really good, when i played this game for the first time and i aways die because i din’t knew that i can change the difficult now that i know about, i put on low because i’m not to good at shoot em up games, but good job making a game that litteraly beat a clock.

Probably one of the most unique uses of the theme so far! It's a fun little game with a cool concept, I do find the bullets are pretty hard to control especially while moving cos they like to curve but other than that it's really solid! I also find it  fun how the numbers come alive as the hand calls on them, cool touch that also works as an interesting wave timer! I wish there was more feedback on certain things though, like killing an enemy is pretty underwhelming without anything to show for it, but other than that pretty solid game!

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks! Yeah, I suppose people use that phrase figuratively quite often.

Hmm, the game is pretty simple in graphics, but the idea is cool. True, you can't see the player normally on a black background (at least in the video, I can't even launch it like that). But the idea is cool, really.

Developer

I was hoping the grey outline of the player would be visible enough (especially given that I usually turn the brightness of dark games way up, or else I can't see anything).

But I'll add the option to change the player colour.

Developer

You can now change the player colour by pressing "i" (for "image" - C or P might've made more sense, but those keys were already being used).

Really cool implementation of the theme! Lovely visuals as well.
