The soundtrack/sound effects are a bit lacking, but damn, I love this game's spritework. The animations are juicy, the lighting is effective, the sprites are well-made. In terms of gameplay, I do like the concept, but some powers do end up vastly more powerful than others at times, and without a way to predict or control what I'm going to get, I'm mostly incentivized to just keep shooting regardless of what weapon I have. So yeah, it might need a couple more passes in terms of design... but I still a lot of fun with this game.
Here's my level when I died:
Thank you, I learned a lot about pixel art animation in this jam, glad you like it. You're right about the music. This is only the second time I've made music for video games, but i learned a lot through feedback. Unfortunately, we've had a very difficult time balancing this game, which is why some weapons are stronger than others. Thank you for your feedback and playing our game.
Thank you for your feedback. There are actually 6 different enemies. However, they only differ in a few parameters. Due to time constraints, I didn't manage to give each enemie a face of their own. The idea was to add a range enemy, but we didn't have the time for that either. Thank you for playing though.
