You can't hurt me because the bullet is the same color as me. Good usage of switch between the two different modes.

Solid concept! Have you considered having the different colored projectiles affect enemies differently? I think there's a lot of room to expand and add on to this. Nice work!

Thanks for playing! Also yeah, I was planning on having enemies take more damage from bullets of the opposite color but ended up leaving out because I was running short on time. There's probably room for more interesting effects as well.

Really fun game and great idea! Would be even better if it was longer, but still great game!

It feels really good! More than anything else, I wish there were more levels for me to play.

Cool idea! Being able to block bullets in the correct mode definitely makes you feel powerful. If you decide to expand the game after the jam, it might also be fun to have upgrades that let you reflect enemy bullets back at them, or even bounce bullets into other nearby enemies. Nice work on completing the jam!

Thanks for playing! Yeah think there's definitely room to expand on the core mechanic, I like the upgrade ideas you suggested.
