After beating hardcore mode, I can say confidently that I have exited the gungeon... wait wrong game
Really enjoyable submission! I dig the music too. Having collectibles was nice. It almost makes you want to pick them up 5ever ;). Hardcore mode adds a nice challenge too, further emphasizing your limited ammo. Maybe not the most creative take, but pretty well executed. Well done!
Oh, when I said "maybe not the most creative take", I meant as in it doesn't have to blow your mind 10 times over, it's just a pretty well executed game. Recycling ammo is still a cool idea though! Besides that, the game does definitely have its unique identity with the vampires and everything. On that note, if you want to develop it further, you could probably go all out on recycling. Maybe you could have different weapons that share bullets, a type of bullet could ricochet around a few times before dropping to the ground, you could swap between your bullet types, etc.
As a side note, I just remembered this, the game can be a bit too dark in some areas.
I wanted to do more bullet types but we decided to spend our time balancing the levels we had instead of making new content. It probably was too dark in some areas, but the vast improvement the lighting gave to the look of the game made that worth it to me. Thanks for the feedback and the response, I appreciate that.
