Rad game, quick to get a hold of and very fun. Fun to shoot, more fun to hit, could use more weapons, whether temporary or not. Definitely gives the Terraria frost legion vibes (which I always liked--the one silly invasion event that always gets overshadowed by the Frost Moon). But overall very polished!

Developer

Thank you for playing! I was inspired by the Frost Legion so I'm glad it felt like that

Great little platform-shooter, really enjoyed it. I particularly liked the slow-down effect on getting shot, felt quite polished! I would have loved to see some powerups or something falling to the ground with the snow, something to spice up the gameplay a touch! That being said, cool game, looking forward to seeing your next project!

Thank you for the feedback! I was hoping for roguelike-style upgrade system but that was a bit too big of a scope for the time limit :)

Submitted

fun! It was cool to have the option between the shotgun and the dynamite! could definitely see this expanded in the future :)

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks :) I am planning on maybe expanding it a bit

Submitted

very fun and the shotting mechanic is very clean. 

Developer

Thank you very much!

Submitted

Very fun game! The art is cute, and the music is so chill. The gameplay was enjoyable, and dodging felt nice. Well done!

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Submitted

Very polished, it can be rogue like style game, where you get upgrades as game goes on. Well done

Developer

I hope to make it that if I continue working on it :) Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Very cool game it reminded me of fighting snow legion in terraria. But overall I had fun altough it was a bit easy for me.

Developer

That was actually my main inspiration, I love terraria. Thank you for playing :)

Really satisfying to shoot, recoil feels really nice. I wish it had more levels with diferent layouts to make the fights more interesting. 

Developer

Thanks :) I hoped to add more variety but I didn't get around to it

I'm a sucker for gun recoil in games and this is probably my favorite game from this jam!

 
However, there is a bug that I hope you'll fix. When releasing spacebar it "cuts" your jump. This is good for making jumping feel great but the problem is that it also works on  gun recoil. I suggest toggling off the jump cut when you shoot then switching it back on later.

Overall, great game, would play again!

Developer(+1)

Yeah I noticed this too. I ended up building a habit of holding spacebar but I am planning on probably changing how the release works if I work on the game more. Thank you for playing! :)

Submitted

Pretty fun play, I love the visuals and the music is so chill! 

Developer

Thanks :)

Submitted

Loved this game! Art is simple but very appealing. The movement and firing is great. The knockback detail when you shoot is great, it adds to the movement. Overall very satisfying and fun game. Good job!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing! :)

Submitted

A solid well made game. I love some of the little details like firing knocking the player back and the slow motion when landing a hit. Character controls well, weapon being a shotgun is satisfying sometimes hitting multiple enemies at once. Graphics and sound are great.

I would like if the difficulty ramped up a little faster at the begining. After dying a couple times I wanted to try again but the very easy early game lasts a little too long. Maybe some kind of faster melee enemy to force the player to move around so they cant just stand still in the middle shooting. 

I also didn't understand the dynamite. It seemed worse than the shotgun to me, with a longer cooldown, more difficult to land, yet not doing much damage or having much of a radius. Think buffing it could be fun.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! The dynamite is mostly as an extra little firepower boost to give the player an extra option, especially as a bit more consistent of a long range attack.

Submitted

Lots of fun playing this one. Love the artwork too. Well done

Developer(+1)

Thank you! :)

Submitted

Simple yet fun. I loved the aesthetic and the gameplay was great. Nice work!

Developer

Thanks so much! :)

Submitted

Nice lil game, are there power ups? It could be interesting. Cheers!

Developer

Not at the moment but I was thinking possibly about a roguelike-esque system in the future. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

I love this one! Super simple concept, but you accomplish a lot with just two abilities. Great little mini-game!

Developer

Thank you! :)
