its a good game, just wish every enemy wasn't just the same enemy but more durable.

This is a nice polished game. Great art style! The game play works well, but is a bit slow for my taste (unless you grab a speed powerup), and it's too easy - it almost seems like you can play forever, though after a few minutes some real enemies appear. I would also add that enemies drop powerups (or mutation / XP points), maybe even powerups that disappear after a while, which makes the movement and positioning more interesting. Anyway, that's nitpicking - it's still among the top games of this jam!
Very nice game, I like the UI elements, how he interpreted the theme of mutation. Very fun gameplay and keeps you hooked to play, sounds are simple but nice for a jam. Good job.
the upgrades didnt feel like they did much beyond me spamming damage and reload rate which is normal for a game jam, but beyond that it was good, the artstyle was cool and i cant tell if the world *is* procedurally generated, but it did feel like that and if it was then it felt like it had good worldbuilding through it's environment
Really good and fun game! Liked the art and sound, but the gameplay loop was great!! Really good job!
Really like the mood of the game! Well done!!! Hope you like mine as well!
Awesome game! The only problem was the game speed (too slow). Well done!
Great game! Love the aesthetics and the sound of the game, I do enjoy the gameplay loop and the controls are responsive, I found the gameplay a bit slow for my taste (take it with a grain of salt tho, it’s a subjective feedback)
really satisfying to let my penetration 8 bullets just plow through the horde, my only negitive comment is that i felt there were to many health power ups compared to what you actual needed. other than that, really solid entry
Super satisfying game play! I love the cover art and characters. My only note is that it didn't get harder, but other than that it's fun!
Fun game! I do think its a bit too easy and it doesn't scale much but its a really fun game.
Fleshed out and understandable!
I like the gameplay loop! While it's a bit simple, it's still fun! Something to think about is that the player will be doing the same thing the entire time. There's a clear dominant strategy, and nothing in the game ever changes that up. That would be fine if the game-loop was short, but game take awhile to get through, so something needs to change up how the player feels.
I would've liked to see more mutations other than just weapon adjustments. Player movement, auras, additional effects... If you're going for a Vampire Survivors vibe, look at what is interesting about Vampire Survivors.
Clear visuals and audio. Well done!
Love the design and banner artwork! Really polished and robust game for a short jam. I love all the variety of pickups and it's really satisfying to one-shot all the enemies with bullet spreads. I would have loved to keep the speed boosts longer, or perhaps permanently, because movement did feel a bit on the slow side after a while. Overall pretty fun. Nice work!
Game looks great and is quite satisfying but it's a bit too easy early on and the movement is too slow like others mentioned
Great concept, a bit slow like others mentioned. Was very fun to play, especially at the beginning when you have a lot of upgrade possibilities.
