I feel more powerful having played this, spiritually in tune with the little dinosaur on the Chrome no internet page. As ready to bob and weave, and even more ready to eat dirt and die.
It's a fun little romp. Tileset is nice and chunky, just the way the doctor ordered, and the vision obscuring not fading out to black for once makes the mechanic work without getting hideously distracting. I've firmly reminded of the time that Mark of the Ninja blurred half the screen and I'm... very glad you didn't do that.
Gets a wee bit monotonous, though, and the weapons feel a bit wimpy. It works during the boss stages, where the game comes alive briefly to be a bullet hell, but when you're kiting your way through the 18th room full of armed guards that need to be chipped down, I kinda wish the game was just kicking my ass instead.
Anyway, good luck with the full project, and nicely done getting in 3 minutes before deadline.
