cool game , I like the black hole mechanic that sucks the enemy bullets away from the player. challenging but fun.

BulletHellJam 2022I really liked this one, although I didn't really know what I was doing at first, after that, I had a really fun time, good job man!

Knight with a gunI liked the game. The gravity makes for some intersting ways to attack and not all enemies can be easily killed by just spamming them with alien-spawn. The game should start fully zoomed out imo. I didn't notice you can zoom out at first. Also the enemy that destroys your black hole felt a little unfair when you don't always see it or know that its there. Another problem I could see is that it isnt clear when you've healed from catching enemies in your black hole.
Otherwise the game is good and I can see the potential in it.

SquarionNice concept and nice music. It reminds me of a very similar jam game that I played months ago.

Maze Of BulletsNice game. The music felt a little too ambient for the style of game, but the art was amazing. It stayed very consistent the whole game which was surprising considering how well detailed it was. Nice job.

Prison BasementGood game! I got to wave 11 and I think at that point the amount of bullets can be a bit unfair since it is not easy to dodge all of them nor are you meant to I assume, but I really like the main mechanic. It is satisfying to look at all of the bullets swirling around the black hole and I love that it has multiple uses. The fact that you can heal by consuming enemies with it really makes you think about the right time to use it instead of just spamming it at all times. I think it would be better if there was some way to increase your damage for the later waves as dealing with a lot of enemies can take some time. With that said, it looks great, it's a good concept and most importantly it's pretty fun!

Square Off Against BulletsVery cool concept! Every black hole changes the way you have to play - really enjoyed it overall. Audio and visual design were also excellent. Great work!

The Chromatic ChasmI found this game quite cool!
Smooth and polished visuals (other than when you run into the edge of the map), and interesting concept. Love the way all of the bullets swirl around the blackhole.
My main complaint would be that it was very difficult to see the darker enemy bullets against the background. Other than that, fun concept, and pretty good execution.

ConfiDodgeThe black hole mechanic is really neat, and the ship designs were really cool too. Nice entry!

Invaders From SpaceSolid idea, the black hole as a mechanic worked really well, it reminded me of the Black Hole Gun in Enter the Gungeon, and worked basically just like that! It makes enemy bullets sink into it, but also affects the trajectory of your own "bullets", so you really have to think where to put it! Controls were clear and worked well. I didn't like the fact that you can take dmg from your own spawns, I understand the idea behind it, but for me it was a bit much. Maybe it just takes some time to get used to, though :)
Overall, a very solid entry, good job!
We'd also appreciate big time if you had time to check out our submission! :)

Bad MothershippersThe game is really cool to play with. Your primary attack following you around makes for some really cool trick-shots and what not. The black hole attack is also super interesting to use, both offensively and defensively. There's a wide variety of enemies, which makes the game really interesting. The enemies are usually quite tough and tank though... It should also be noted that the primary attack of babies can also hurt you. It's visually really nice though. Congrats!

a BLADE in bullet hellI really liked the sfx, I think it could have a song, by the way the graphics are beautiful, but I found the art kinda weird, I don't know if that was the goal
