My game Hell Slayer is a short little "reverse bullet hell" game. It's a clone of heavily inspired by Vampire Survivors, which I played a bit of over the last couple months and thought it would be a really fun genre to make a jam game for. I was a bit overly ambitious so I didn't get all of my planned features/polish into the game before I ran out of time, and a lot of art that was intended to be a placeholder made it into the final build. But all of the feedback has been positive so far so maybe you will enjoy it, too.
For the focus "Multi-Use" there are augmentations that can change the nature of your weapons and make them work completely differently. So for example, the poison augmentation can increase your weapon damage but all damage will be dealt over time instead of instantly, and the holy augmentation will halve the damage of your weapon but will heal you for a fraction of damage dealt. It's just another mechanic to allow you to mix up your strategy, and another way of having all of your abilities/upgrades/augmentations work together to create synergy and turn you into an unstoppable demon-murdering machine.
To meet the theme "Turn Up The Heat", I decided to give the game a DOOM-esque setting. You're slaying the forces of hell, and the final level is set in hell itself. And of course I didn't forget the most important part of any DOOM setting: a kickass metal soundtrack. Royalty free, courtesy of Alexander Nakarada (https://www.serpentsoundstudios.com/).
So if this sounds like your kind of game, check it out. I'll return the favor and rate/comment on your game as well. Just leave a comment in this thread or in the comment section for my jam submission.
Thanks!
