I really like your game! The concept of mutations to get power-ups is fun, and the overall gameplay is great. Perhaps, I would have liked it to start a bit more slowly (I felt a bit lost), but it's an excellent game overall. Great job!
love the game. gameplay is nice and snappy. the only thing i would change is to increase movement speed but i think thats just a me thing cause a common problem with my game jam games is making everything too fast lol.
Great job on the game! The controls felt very intuitive, the unlock feature was well implemented, and the level design/art was well done! GRIB MUST SURVIVE!
Best of the top-down shooters I've seen so far!
There's a lot of polish that is put into this game, and it feels pretty good! I played this game when you first submitted it, and it's impressive how quickly you polished it up during the jam! The arena felt unique, but I wish there was a bit more to do while waiting for the slugs.
You thought you could sneak in a little adaptive audio didn't you? I freaking LOVE adaptive audio, and you got that going in a game jam? At first I thought I was imagining it, but then I realized I was right! When the slugs start spawning, the music gets funkier! Nice touch, that's a super neat detail!
I will say, the game felt pretty hard to me. I can see from your screenshot that you've got other arenas, but I wasn't able to make it to any of them. Unless I'm missing something core about the game, that probably means pulling back on the difficulty is the way to go. You always want to err on the side of players seeing all of your content.
Everything felt cohesive and fun. I wish there was more content, but that's always how you should feel after playing a good game.
Great job, and good luck with the competition!
Awesome work with the music. The idea is great and it's very well executed. I think the enemies should just be a bit slower, so it's a easier in the start.
Loved the music, the character is super cute but I kind of lost that in the top-down perspective a bit. super fun concept and even though there were only 2 enemy types, each wave still felt challenging and varied depending on which room you were in. great game!
