Cool Game!!!
The music got me right in at the launch!
The gameplay, a bit confusing at first, is quickly addictive. It was hard to keep things going smooth with the automated attacks that were destroying my attempts to respect the order of kills...

I will give it more playing when the voting is over.

Developer

Thanks, happy that you enjoyed it!

Reasonably simple concept, but a very good exectution to go with it. The attacks felt good, and the upgrades were noticable. I think my only minor critque would be give the player slightly longer to read the requirements at the start of each level, as while I did see the indicator in the top left, it was easier for me to know what I was doing properly before starting rather than figuring it out on the fly. But overall good job.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! You can check the state of the current level at any time by pausing the game, but we did not make that obvious enough, and should probably also show the conditions a bit more prominently :P

Amazing game, everything feels good and balanced. Very polished for a jam. Got destroyed by wolves and lions a lot :'(

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! Yes, those and sharks are the main cause of death :P

This is a fun, cute game. Love the animations!

Developer

Thanks!

Game is very fun! It was actually surprisingly fun prioritising which enemies to kill which really added to the vampire survivors format

Developer

Thank you!

Thanks !

This game is fast, intense, and loads of fun. The win conditions add a lot of strategy to what would otherwise be a mindless romp, and the aesthetics are awesome. Incredible work!

Thank you for the kind words!

This was fun.  I liked the pointer showing what enemy I needed to focus on beating next to complete the tasks. It took me a bit to figure out how the loops worked.  My checkpoint didn't reset after I lost, so I was sometimes jumping to level 7 instead of back to level 1 if I didn't complete the tasks before hitting the level 3 checkpoint.   Once I realized that, it was easier.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! Well done spotting that bug, we didn't catch it during testing :P
The conditions showed us once again that it's super hard to introduce new mechanics in a way that is intuitive for players, we'll keep working on that ;)

Submitted(+1)

Really cool and I had a lot of fun.  Took a while for me to realize that I had tasks lol, I was just having fun killing things

Developer

Thanks for playing! Making it clear that you need to fulfill the conditions to break out of the loop is definitely something that we need to work on some more, but glad that the killing was fun! :D

another great bullet hell 2d shooter in this jam, love it, specially the art and music, also love the fact that its godot!

Developer(+1)

Godot FTW!

Fun game, I like the task based twist on a vampire survivor-like. 

Developer

Thanks!

Got confused as I didn't see that you could aim with the mouse but the audio and the graphics of this game are amazing!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the kind words. Yes, the crosshair is invisible until you move it, and without the mouse it gets quite hard :P

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! I was a bit confused at first but got a hold of it after a while. I liked the artwork and audio a lot :>

Developer

Thank you!

The drawings are awesome ! The survivor formula is well executed but, sadly the link to the theme is a little far.

Developer

Thanks for playing, maybe we need to make the link to theme more explicit...

Submitted(+1)

This was really fun! A small nit-pick: a delay after killing the last enemy in the wave would be great -- the ability selection screen was a bit of a jump scare! Great work!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, it's true that the transition is a bit jarring :P

Submitted(+1)

Wow this was awesome, definitely one of the more fun games I've played! The art style is great with the color palette and the music/sfx work so well. The gameplay is great, I really love the wrinkle of having to kill enemies in the correct order. Not only do you need to aim well at the targets but avoid hitting the others. Great job!

Developer

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Really loved your entry too <3

Its a cool game. very creative :) (rate mine please)

Developer

Thanks

I like your game concept and mechanic it not bad.

If possible, can you please vote my game and leave a comment too?

Developer

Thanks

I have to be honest, I really don’t enjoy killing dogs in games, but that’s just a personal preference.

That aside, the soundtrack was an absolute banger! The art-style is killer and really fits the retro vibe. The controls and movement feel great and are well-implemented, making the gameplay enjoyable. There’s a solid variety of upgrades that keep things interesting.

It did take me a while to notice the conditions for completing the level, probably because I’m not the most attentive, but it would’ve been nice to have a button like “I have read the conditions” before starting the level. I ended up maxing out a bunch of upgrades before realizing I didn’t like the playstyle they led to. But overall, I really enjoyed the game!

Developer

Sorry about that, hope you still managed to enjoy the game!

Yes, we worked quite a bit to make the conditions more clearly visible, but we're still not quite there :P

Submitted(+1)

I did! It was very fun to play :)
