I like the visuals a lot really, transmit a great ambient overal, I find the mechanics fun and working, I would recommend reload to work without a key and maybe add some more contrast to our projectiles, but maybe its a personal thing so dont worry, its a great game as is too. 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!!!

A steampunk clocktower beckons you to climb it, will you defeat each part of the clock taunting you?

Yes

Great visuals and I liked to boss designs! Some of the attacks feel a bit unfair (like the one that forever seemed to chase me) - but maybe I'm missing some mechanic to help me against those?

Vortex FightersThe background cogs and the spiral stairs are awesome, I have lots of praise for the artist of this game. I think the ability to turn into a cog was neat, I was also able to catapult myself way up into the air at the end of it (not sure if that's intended). Good work and I see lots of potential!

The music and art was great. The sfx, while present, had little to add to the experience of play. The visuals on the border of the screen seemed out of place. The spin mechanic felt practically useless I'm sorry to say. I liked the idea of charging it up, but I couldn't figure out what it was doing for me, so I ignored it entirely. Bosses were super cool! Solid work.

Titanic ToysI can tell a lot of work was put into these fights. I love the artwork, and the music. The aesthetic seems to tell a grander story. It wasn't easy to play, given the oddities with the controls. Having the button that moves to boss 2 right next to the reloading button was a struggle. I had to reopen the game several times to be able to beat both bosses. As a POC I think it did pretty well. Good work, team!

Titanic ToysI love the art! I can't tell when the saw attack works, though. Great job otherwise!
