Would you mind mentioning what you think could be improved for you to have more fun?  I'm always looking to get better!

But thank you for checking our game out regardless!

I think having the controls work relative to the way the ship is facing would definitely create some extra challenge!

I decided on the bullet recharging even if it gets destroyed because if I let it bounce forever you could fire once and just avoid enemy bullets forever, which seems a little less engaging.

Thank you for checking our game out!

I guess it isn't explained anywhere, but the shot actually takes longer to recharge if you don't call it back to you. I did think about requiring the user to call the shot back in order to shoot again, but then you could let the shot bounce forever and keep killing things, and that's no fun ;)

Thanks for checking our little game out!

Really glad you enjoyed it!

This was both my first "full" game and my first game jam, so I'm pretty amazed we got this done in 48 hours too! Fluffysbeans and I have been discussing possibly continuing development on the idea. With some more mechanics and some more polish, I think this could really turn into something cool!

Some of the tweaks  I really wanted to get in before the deadline were both aiming with the mouse, and increasing the squirts' hitbox. I agree it is pretty difficult to get things just right.

Thanks! I agree it is a bit faster than you'd expect from a farming game. Slowing it down, adding more enemies, implementing the shop, and fixing a few bugs would be the first things on my list for continued development. If only I had a few more hours!
