Very good design. Some of the levels was a little bit difficult complete. More player feedback would help a lot!

I assume this would feel amazing to speedrun, but I so appreciate the ability to slow everything down to a crawl and take my time making decisions! Boss was epic, music went hard, and the art is extremely pleasing. Outstanding work all around!

Rocket Rally RacingReally solid game, the only thing I'd improve is the readability of the boss. (can't tell when to hit him)

Fugue Shot (Jam Version)It's not always I get to play a puzzle game that is also very badass! You guys did an incredible job on this game, the levels are very intuitive and the puzzle solving/hacking and slashing is so slick. Great job!

_sheld[ON]Yes, feeling badass was a pretty high priority for me as the artist. Originally me and the programmer couldn’t decide on an idea- but we eventually picked his idea but altered it by using my art direction concept. It definitely really worked out because the game feels very smooth and slick because of lamp man I think!
thanks so much for playing!
first game i played to rate and WOW, what a standard it set. beautiful art, great music. the gameplay is unique and fun. and the JUICE, so much juice. i love the slow-mo, the consecutive enemy kills, the smooth animations. aaah, so good.

POWER OF LOVEBALLReally satisfying mix of puzzle solving and action. The slow-mo chain kills feel amazing, and I love all the little stylish touches, especially the inter-level animation. Great work!

With Great Power...Love it! finished the game. The art style is realllyyyy goood. gameplay is well designed. Was a bit confused by the last boss by how he's defeated but once you figure it out it was just simple lol.

Thou Shalt ParryThank you so much! Was really fun working on this games art- I’m a sucker for the 90-degree top down and did multiple games in the perspective but this time I was going for a bit smaller sprites then usual and also picked a palette I really dig lately (first seen in a different game called Thorn for another jam). I also practiced limiting my colors and I think it worked out great.
yes, the boss was pretty rushed, and originally was gonna be entirely different but oh well lol.
thanks a lot for playing!!
It's really polished, and the idea is unique and fun! You can get stuck in a negative feedback loop of being too slow to reach a new power source, but it doesn't feel unfair, rather that I didn't solve the puzzle in the right way. The only criticism I could bring up is that the final boss feels a little underwhelming, especially given the difficulty of those red-level magnet enemies. Thanks for sharing this excellent game!
