Truly amazing art! I don't have words to express how beautiful this art looks, really an amazing job guys! The color choice was awesome :D Also the gameplay felt really nice and snappy, it was pretty hard tho but it was a great! Congrats! :D

This game is so so cool! The cutscene at the beginning was amazing, and the main mechanics are so simple but really really fun and tense to play with. I just couldn't get enough of it honestly, I had so much fun with pretty much every element of this game. Really awesome work here!

Developer

Thank you so much ♡ your comment makes me really happy!

I love the story aspect of the game, it adds another layer of motivation.

Battles are decently balanced, all the attack patterns are crafted well, with just enough time to make a decision. Limiting the moveset just to selecting the ring and direction is very smart, it allows you to create some unique situations, although reduces their possible combinations at the same time.

The controls are a bit confusing for the default position of being in front of the boss most of the time. Maybe having a single button to switch the movement direction could make it easier? But maybe not ¦3

Developer

Thanks for your feedback, is really important for us.
Also thanks for playing the game!!

Great story, I was not expecting that twist haha. Love the art too. I do wish it would respawn you at the boss you died at and not the beginning but it was a great and fun game nonetheless.

Developer

We didn't expect that twist either, but it was fun when we thought about it xD

Yes, I think it could be a good addition, especially if the player wants to focus more on the story.

Thank you very much for the comment! :D

Okay I have to say, the intro is hand-down my favorite so far in this Jam and it's not even close, it was hilarious and cutesy and meme-y and all that, definitely made me really hooked immediately!

And then this stuff keeps on being great, all the way to the "reveal", I lost it with the flashback of catmom saying that catdad is always the cutest, genuinely incredible stuff hahaha. Even the transitions between bosses, the loading screens, the music, etc., everything is *REALLY* nicely done and I loved it. 

Gameplay wise, I found the dive/submerge mechanic really cool. There wasn't any boss attack that I felt like it wasn't obvious, it was very easy to tell whether I should be above water or below water and it was really interesting to use that to dodge stuff. I find this even more particularly interesting because our game has a similar premise (boss in the middle, rotate around him), and while we did consider having a "multiple rings" thing going on to give us more freedom in designing boss abilities, it never crossed our minds to have something like your submerge/dive, I genuinely think it is genius, and it was perfectly integrated into the gameplay.

Really strong entry, great job! 

Developer

THE STORY FOR THIS GAME IS PERFECT ALEJGMRKGOSDFSVRRSJK !

I loved playing this, really well made, funny and super entertaining! I like the design of the attack patterns as they always have a better side, but not that you cant do the other one, which is really fun to learn! Overall, really well excuted and funny game! Great job!

The game is really beautiful! There are lots of little graphic details that I really appreciated! And the diving mechanics are very interesting. On the other hand, it took me a while to figure out that you had to hit the eye of the first boss, then the moving tentacle of the second (but maybe I'm just slow on the uptake xD).

In any case, congratulations on this game!

Developer

It makes us happy that you mention the small graphic details!

Yes, perhaps we could highlight the weak points a little more so that they are more easily noticed, thank you very much for your feedback! :D

I enjoyed the art, and the cutscene brought a tear to my eye, I do feel as if the shadows underneath the bullets confused me when I would be hit, and I think having the shadow behind or directly under may be more visually effective, although I have never made a top-down game so I'm not sure how that would mix. overall the gam art was extremely appealing and was excited to see the next boss designs.

Loved the game in general, the mechanic to dive in water instead of a dash was very refreshing, thanks for the game!

I really like the ingame art!

The art in the cutscene looked a little bit flat compared to that to me however, but that's a minor nitpick.

It also was really hard for me. I'd love if the control scheme would allow it to flip setting the rotation if the player is on the lower side of the circle, so that A would be left and D right there and like it is now on the top side. I often pressed the wrong button out of intuitiveness.

Developer

Thank you for playing our game and for your feedback! :D

i have no idea what these things are but im ready to do anything for them. the game is really pretty. i think the controls should've worked counter-clock wise though because you mostly feel comfortable hanging around in front of the boss but when you're there the left button makes you go right and vice versa and it kept messing with my brain loll. i had a lot of fun tho. great job on everything.

Holy I'm in love with this little gem haha! It's super silly in all the good ways and was a joy to play through. The bosses are a little spongy and some patterns are a bit too easy but I think that's more on the personal preference side of things. Really fun and cute game haha, props to whoever took "Catfish" literally and rolled with it THEN gave them a gun lmao

Developer(+1)

Adding the gun came up as a joke while we were thinking about how the character would shoot, but we liked the sprite so much that in the end we decided to keep the gun haha

The team was very happy to hear your comment, thank you very much for playing! :D

Very fun and lighthearted, I enjoyed it! My only gripes are that the difficulty can get a bit too hard and I wasn't sure if I was dealing enough damage or doing it correctly. But it was a fun little game, great job!

Hehehe that makes me very happy <3 thank you so much

Nice simple game with great art, only thing I have to complain about is the controls, when you're in the bottom side of the screen the directions seem to invert, and also the sound effects seemed to get louder and louder as the boss fight went on? It sounded like there were tons of bullets being fired over and over again.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback✨️
