Game's Take on the Theme
The main character and all bosses are animals that can spin webs or silk (weaver ants, silkworm, spider). Main character "spins" up new webs by consuming other material. Main character seeks the 3 Fates to claim the power to spin new threads of life.

I really like these greyscaled graphics, they build a nice atmosphere and feel cool, also the bullet patterns are awesome, as a person that has made some bullet hell before, I know how hard is to make them, the mechanics work nice and the game feels cool and fun, I rate graphics, control, fun and music the most, all well made really, also, if you have some time, please, rate my game too, thanks!!!

The artwork is so cute! Nice and unique gameplay!

I loved the design of the Moth, and in the end, I just had to save the little Slug. The game’s mechanics are really interesting and unique, it truly gave a great feeling to paying attention to the right attacks to counter. I really liked the game, great job!

Submitted

A great idea to recover some projectiles (but not all!) to be able to counter-attack :D

and great art too :) Well done!

Submitted

Great ambientation! Boss fights were nice aswell once i got the controls and entered the zone (those ants killed me more than i'm willing to say...) Good job!

fun game and narrative! played it all the way through and wish there was more! boss mechanics felt different still even based around the web collecting and shooting method and the dodging balance felt great to get out of sticky situations. great work!

I loved it so much, your game's art is so cute and well done, I had a lot of fun playing it, I liked the dialogues too! I think you could just change the sound of the dialogues a little, they are very strong, and also add a small invincibility time after being hit. The dash (in my opinion) could be faster. Regardless of anything, your game was very well done and I really loved it, congratulations.

This game has a unique style to it and I Iove it! The music is great, and the artwork is unique and charming. Nice work!

Submitted

The music was really nice.  I also liked the cute artwork.  Good call on leaving it mostly black and white.  Enjoyed the paper like feel of the visuals.  Good job!

Submitted

Everything about this game is so charming! The art for the characters, the music, and the dialogue all combine to make a cohesive style. The gameplay is a refreshing take on bullet hells. I thought I could melee attack the bosses but that's only for collecting ammo. Overall, this was a really fun playthrough!

OMG this game is so sweet! I HAD TO SAVE THE SLUG I AM SORRY I AM NOT CHOOSING THE OTHER ENDING

The game is great, the battles are amazing, and it is very clever to defend yourself with your own attack - it helped me a lot! I also loved the art! Great game!

loved the vibe and the feel of it, but the first triple ant bosses are too overwhelming I think might wanna tone down the projectile amount. P.S loved the mechanic where you could stock up on your own attacks by breaking enemies attacks, very unique.

Submitted

Love the cute worms and the gameplay, just think bosses were a little too overwhelming with the projectiles would suggest to add a little space between them, overall nice game enjoyed it!

Submitted

Wow the game is so charming, look at those silky worm guys, i like it 

Submitted

Was a good game, boss difficulty was perfect. No complaints

Submitted

Had lot of fun on this one ! Nothing to really say, except maybe a better balance between risk/reward you get ! I liked the atmosphere and art direction. Great job, hope you the best for the rating week !!

Submitted

Game is just clean and has a calming atmosphere. Instead of rushing towards the boss I just want to spend time walking around the first part.
