Love this simplicity and the art style!

Submitted

Good game, like the art style and music.

Submitted

Cool game! It was fun. The juice behind shooting was also really good.

Submitted

Very catchy music and playing as a vacuum attacking dust bunnies is a very clever idea! Nice job! 

Submitted

I like the idea,dodging the projectiles is hard and game need a balance but overall I like it

Submitted

Very well-made game! I really like the idea, the gameplay is simple but fun and satisfying. Personally I think the player move a bit too slow, but it's just a minor issue. Overall very cool game. Great job!

Submitted

Good entry. Very simple mechanics and graphics. Not very innovative but it is fun to play :D

Good job!

Submitted

Concept is ok, but if you don't go on the right direction at start, you don't have all the instruction like Q/E for life management. Vacuum is so slow, I didn't manage to see the boss :( .Music is good. Well done.

Submitted

Smart way of meeting the theme! Good job!

Submitted

Very solid. But feels slow cause of the movment speed. 

I like it the sounds are great but can i ask why the ground is poop?

Submitted

Solid top down shooter, good job!

Submitted

The idea is cool but the player is really slow making the game a bit boring. I like the sound effects tho

this would have heavily benefited from more playtesting and balancing, got stuck because the generation system didn't want to play kindly with me. other than that, no glitches. player couldn't dodge projectiles very well, and enemies were bullet sponges. however, coding a generation system in a week is hard so props to you!

i like the concept and art. you have a error in the level generator

Submitted

Cool concept! It might have been more fun if you fully embraced being a vacuum cleaner and made that the main mechanic rather than shooting. Great job!

Submitted

Really neat idea to play a vacuum and kill dust bunny. Also really nice touch on the boss impressive

Submitted

The vacuum life is a good life

Submitted

Pretty fun, although I'm not sure if it's just me, but I died once and then my exact next game I spawned in the bosses chamber with no escape!

As people below have stated, I stood no chance with the boss haha.

Also, I don't know what was happening but I don't think I managed to kill a single rat, the rats must have OP health.

Even though I never vanquished any of the enemies, I must say I enjoyed the game and gave myself a heart attack when I spawned in the bosses chamber.

Very cute visuals and even though the boss gave me a fright, he was also kinda adorable once I got to know him :)

Good job!

Submitted

Nice idea, I've always dreamed of being a vacuum cleaner!

The only thing I'm not able to dodge the projectiles, quite frustrating ;D
