Rated! ;) Bullet hell! Visuals are great! Characters are funny, game is supercool! :D
Thank you so much for playing! I'm glad you liked it :D
The visuals are cool and funny, the intro is awesome haha, I like the feel of the game, the idea to spin ourselves and hypnotize boss to attack is quite clever, I would only request to make the viewpoint a bit bigger but its cool as is too, I like hgow its challenging and fun, I hope you can continue working on this project as its really fun and cool and I would like to see it expand. I rate graphics, control, fun and music the most, but all is great really, also, if you have some time, please, rate my game too, thanks!!!
Thank you so much for playing! I'm glad you liked the idea. I don't know if I would make a bigger version of the game, I like it as a short and entertaining game :D
Really fun and challenging game! Did feel like a little much at a few times with bullets but that's just expected form a bullet hell lol. Really fun to play!
(P.S.: If you're willing to I'd love it if you can rate and leave some feedback on my game! This is my first ever jam and I'd love to see where I can improve for the future!)
Hahaha, thank you so much for playing! I'm glad you liked it :D
Played through the game, unfortunately got a blocker bug that avoided me getting to the end, but it's a solid goofy package with every aspect in the same page, and though the controls could benefit from joysticks, I loved the jam theme interpretation, super original.
Thank you so much for playing! I'm glad you liked it. Yeah, the game would definitely be easier to control with a joystick. Sorry about the bug! If you could tell me what happened, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks again for playing! :D
At some point, the boss was surrounded by a shield, and was not allowing me to damage him. He was also stuck in place, not moving or attacking back
i like this game very much! the visuals have a very distinct and goofy style which i like! i did feel a bit overwhelmed by some of the bosses, but i do feel this is a solid entry! thank you for making such a nice experience :D
Such nice visuals and a clever interpretation of the theme! 🖤🌻
Thank you so much for playing! I'm glad you liked it! :D
Me ha gustado mucho el juego. Se nota que hay trabajo y creatividad detrás. El diseño y la mecánica están bien logrados. ¡Felicidades!
Me alegro de que te haya gustado, muchas gracias :D
Hey what a neat cute game you got there with unique spin mechanics! during play i found out i didn't have hp to worry about and would just respawn mid battle and didn't worry about dying so much, but I like the last boss bullet hell visuals, then I saw you were counting deaths at the end to my surprise, haha it might not be best for me to share the number ahhahaha! Cool fun game though! Congrats on submission, and good luck!
I rated and submitted to return the favor of your rate submission of my game below!
- If others read this, RATE/REVIEW my game to get me to try yours as well! Thanks!
I'm glad you liked it! I made it so that when you die, you respawn instantly, so that players who aren’t very skilled can still play without trouble. That way, I could make more complex attacks to dodge without making the game tedious. The only punishment for dying too much is that, in the end, the cake might end up destroyed on the floor or not.
Thanks for playing! :D
bahaha i love it, i can't remember if my cake was on the floor lol
This game is cute, although I think Mike from Monsters Inc might have ran off-set... hehe I think the music follows the game really well, maybe a little repetitive but props for making it yourselves! I don't think I ever took damage, was that intentional so people could see more of the game if they're unskilled at WASD like me? I love the hypnotizing the boss to do damage but wish that you could damage with left click because I kept accidentally hitting shift instead of the up arrow.
I'm glad you liked it! Maybe the music feels short because I didn’t have much time to make it XD. In the game, when a bullet hits you, you simply die and respawn instantly, and at the end, it counts your deaths. I made it this way for those who aren’t very skilled, so I could make more complex attacks without making it frustrating. The game's ending actually changes depending on how many times you die.
Thanks for playing! :D
P.S: I swear I tried to make it not look like Mike.
Oh, that’s awesome, I’m going to play again and get to the end and see what my ending is! What a neat idea!
I totally understand not having enough time to flush out your music, that’s why we ended up buying ours because we ran out of time to have friends put something together (aside from my own humming in the load screen)
The last boss threw off my game so badly. Aside from that the gameplay was fun and I enjoyed the music alot!!
Thank you so much for playing, I'm glad you liked the music :D
Very good boss animations, intro cutscene was also nice. I love the hypnotize mechanic, although I kinda wish the gaze area was larger. Really cool entry. Great job!
Thank you for playing! I'm glad you liked the animations and the mechanic :D
This is a really funny idea!! Surprisingly, it feels great during active boss fights—you integrated it really well!! It's a very fun little game, and the cutscene really lifted my mood))) Excellent work!
Thank you very much for playing, and I'm glad you liked the cutscene :D
nice implementation of the spin theme, though it'd probably work better with a joystick than with the keyboard. the animation is really good, gives each boss personality.
last boss is a huge difficulty spike and i had a hard time trying to hypnotize the boss within the short opportunity window (skill issue)
Thank you very much! Yes, maybe it would control much better with a controller. I'm glad you liked it :D
Juegardopolis, buenardopolis, exelentopolis y sobre todo ha vuelto el gaming.
9/10 por que no me dieron las manos para sacar el final si te morías menos de una vez.
jajajaja gracias :D
WOW! Despite how the game looks at first glance, you can really tell that the game shines in its beautiful animations. I loved the personality that each boss has and how each attack was well telegraphed. The gameplay itself is a little rough around the edges, but the art really kept me playing. Amazing stuff!
Thank you for playing! I'm glad you liked the animations :D
Really fun game! Has a lot of charm to it
Animations are fluid, some bullet patterns are honestly beautiful and the spinning mechanic is really fun and original!
Great game overall, leved the little cutscenes!
Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked it :D
