Hey this idea is really cool. The game looks simple for the moment but I still had a lot of fun! It has a great potential. Good job and keep creating!

Developer

thanks!

I really liked the deflection mechanic of this game, it has a lot of potential so it would be really cool if you fleshed it out some more. Some sound effects and maybe a bit of screen shake could go a long way in making the game feel a bit more satisfying / polished but that is just a nit-pick and the game is awesome! If you have the time I would really appreciate it if you could check out my game too :D

Developer

Thanks! I tried your game, it was great, might even be one of the top 20s.

I like the mechanic a lot, its fun to deflect bullets like this, I would say maybe add some effect when its deflected so that its more satisfactory and add a effect when we respawn too, but its cool as is too, also i appreciate you made many different game modes, this is good option to have. I rate graphics and fun on top but all is cool really, also if you have time, please rate my game too, thanks!!

Developer

Your game was fun, though I did notice that there's not really much spinning going on, the player is spinning, but that doesn't affect you in any non visual way, still a great game, just could do with more spinning.

Thanks! What did you like most about it?

Submitted

I loved boss design in impossible mode and then core mechanic

Very good game idea. Returning projectiles is something I would have liked to apply in my game hehe. Good job. Best of luck in the Jam.

Yours was great too! Also best of luck.

touching the enemy just killed me 3 - 0 really fast. quite punishing. thx for sharing :)

Developer

thanks for the feed back! Would you say this is a good thing or do you want it to only do one heart  of damage?

Submitted

1 heart would be better imho. whats point of 3 lives if they evaporate in 3 frames :)

This is neat! I like where it's going! Once you're happy with the mechanics will you change the sprites? I think you could really make this shine with sprites and vfx. Maybe camera shake.

Thanks! I will probably be updating the graphics in update 0.8, stay tuned! Oh and the update 0.5 literally came out right after this comment, do you mind checking it out?

Submitted

I'll let you know as soon as I have a chance to play it!

Great!
