This game has a great color theme. Nicely done! I really dig it
Nice pixel art :)
I liked this game very much. The graphics are awesome. we want more games like this
Very cool game! I also ended up using the fly to the ceiling and shoot down strategy >_>
Fantastic spooky atmosphere, and really the genre I like best, and have never seen realized in 2D yet.... But Sirs, I guess it was a jam criterium, not to have too much gore... No other criticism, and even that is just a worrying thought.
Anyway good luck with this, hope you r gonna create a whole game or rather a series from this! Advertise it well, I wanna hear about it
Amazing art style, great usage of the neon theme and weather system. And great choice for the music. The jet pack was fun and definitely made it a little easier against the ground enemies.
Please keep on working on this! This so cool!
Great Atmosphere! The neon blood is a pretty nice touch. I was able to finish the game with ease. I'm not sure what other stuff you wanted to add but I think a big boss monster would make the game more interesting. Also, I think it would be better if the character can run and jump.
Great Job!
I really liked the aesthetic! Combat was a little confusing at first, the slow pace of your character's movement belie how important remaining mobile was to not dying, but it was fun once I got a handle on it through trial-and-error.
I had a great time playing this entry all the way to the end. While it states you didn't get to make as much as you wanted, what you did get made really shines!! I think you have something here that you can keep working on and make into something great! Excellent job!
Top-notch visuals.
Perhaps adding a Nuclear Throne-style camera, one that moves in the direction the mouse goes but clamps a max distance from the character, would help in aiming at the enemies as you jetpacked over them? I could understand not doing this, though, if this went against the atmosphere you were going for, as popular horror games like Resident Evil are infamous for their claustrophobic controls. Job well done!
Fun, cyberpunk-y and scary - solid game in my opinion!

This is awesome!! Great job and I hope you get to finish it some day.
Great minigame! Visuals and atmosphere were really nice. The jetpack and weapon upgrade were really satisfying :) Would have liked to play it longer! There was one part in the beginning though, the small corridor with the exploding barrels where you still have the pistol, that was extremely hard. I died there like 30 times :/ Otherwise really nice game!
Really nailed creating an ambience that makes me curious as to find out more about the world.
Very well made, The fact that the enemies can kill you in one hit makes them seem actually dangerous which works very well with the creepy aesthetic. However, after the jetpack, I feel that danger just goes away since I can just stick to the roof like spider-man and shoot them all, maybe conceder adding a limitation to or drawback to its use.
Thanks for playing! It's funny you say that about the enemies, the reason it's like that is because I didn't have time to implement a player HUD with HP so I said screw it one life. Originally I wanted there to be a boss fight after you mow down all the baddies but I ran out of time.
This is amazing! Great work! I love the art and effects! My only complaint is that there is no escape key! I had to use alt f4 to end the game. Also on the level right after you get the jet-pack if you go to far past the door you can fall off the level.
Overall though, really nice entry! Love it!!
Yeah unfortunately I didn't have time to add any exit options, thanks for the info I'll be sure to fix that bug!
Has potential for further development, nice. This was made in 2 weeks?
Really polished game. Was really blown away but the graphics. Love the background and seeing all the things fly in the back out in the rain. Made for something super atmospheric. The glowing blood splatters were also stylish and the monsters were so fast it was scary. Really nice job!
Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it!
