In what way does your game fit the theme?
The main mechanic of the game is switching between controlling your body and your soul. Your body can use a shield to block projectiles, your soul can fly above obstacles and attack. In order to overcome your enemies, you need to use both the powers of your body and your soul - stronger together

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I used Unity's Cinemachine package to make working with the camera easier. Other than that, all textures, shaders, sound effects and music were made from scratch

very cool mechanics, good level of difficulty there and I could see this being expanded into something more :)

Submitted

Saw this on discord a few times during development and I already really liked it there. Good job!

Submitted

Really pretty game. The bosses were interesting and all-in-all I had a pretty great time. Can't wait to see more.

Submitted

beautiful effects <3 love neon <3 Great sound effects !

Submitted

Really cool concept and fun game. 

Submitted

The design for the theme is interesting and good, I like it! It teaches me the mechanics at the tutorial level but the first battle (both paths) just increases in difficulty so much. It spawns alot of enemies especially the fast one where it's introduced but its not moving, that's not good for a beginner like me.  I won't leave a rating since I didn't finished the game (If you still want to, please tell me) Anyways good job on the atmosphere and graphics. More games to come!

Fun game, I really enjoyed taking down the bosses. The shooting and shielding mechanic is fun to play around with and the lighting effects are pretty. The boss fights are really fun - they're pretty challenging, but they have patterns that you can learn and adapt to.

I'd increase the damage of your shots in general because it takes a while to kill the smaller enemies even with the close range shot. I'd also add in a teleportation pad when you beat a boss, since it's a little tedious to walk all the way back.

Great job on the game, it's a lot of fun.

Developer

Thanks for feedback! Good idea with the teleports, I'll keep that in mind for my future projects

Submitted

Super, fun, feels very polished. Great job!

I'd love it if you would try my game too.

I agree with the other commenters the atmossphere is so great. The mechanics worked very well. The music loops not perfect I think. Good job Anyways.

Developer

Thanks! I agree that the music looping could be better, I kinda messed up when editing it and accidentally cut the beginning of the loop, so combined with webgl lags it sounds pretty wonky

Submitted

Cool visuals and atmosphere, in the battle with the boss he was behind the screen most of the time and this made the battle a little more difficult.

very good, the mechanics work well

Submitted

reminds of of Forgotten from Bindings of Isaac :)
Nice game thought :)

Fun mechanics, really well executed  - the final battle is tough but really enjoyed it

I really like the atmosphere of your game; the music, your choice of color and the lighting - everything fits perfectly together :) Overall great game, you did an awesome job!

I love the mechanics of this game! I really love how you designed the two bosses, they were challenging but really fun! Though if I had to nitpick then I'd say to turn down the bloom of the game a little bit, I thought my glasses were dirty when I opened the game at first hahah

But besides that this game is really great <3

Submitted

All around great game! Great atmosphere, engaging game play, solid audio! How you fit it to the theme is creative as well!

Submitted

I really like the atmosphere of this game

Submitted

Oh I can remember you posting some screenshots on the Discord a few days ago !

I really dig the global atmosphere. The colors as well. Actually, I do not have anything bad to say ! I loved the gameplay, the animations (Especially when separating the body and the soul !) and overall it was nicely tied. Good job ! 

Submitted

Wooow, that's impressive! Perfect blend of mechanics )

Submitted

Very neat concept! I really like the fact that the further you go from the body, the weaker the projectiles are. Really fits in with the theme. The atmosphere is great too, feels like there could be some great lore to the world.

I was thinking an procedural roguelike mode could work well w/ these mechanics

Developer

Actually, before making this project I was working on a roguelike in similar aesthetic! If people liked this game, I was thinking on adding procedural generation from the older project and possibly expanding it into something bigger!
