I think the game concept is simple and there for very cool, because it is easy to pick up for everyone. The controlls are a bit weird in my opinion, because my muscle memory is used to WASD, SPACE and Shift or using the mouse. Still cool game. You should keep working on it!

Awsome Game! Could be a nice mobile game to burn some time while waiting for something!

Cool game . really like the gun knock back.

Submitted(+1)

This would be one hell of a mobile game.It's so fun and satisfying to play:D

Submitted(+1)

Very fun game, but would be better if it told you how to jump and shoot (had to kinda guess which one it was)

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, I already regret that I didn't put them on the start screen since there was enough space... Anyway, you could find them on the game's page!

This game could be made into a popular mobile game, no doubt. volume slider would be sick as well. Great entry

Interesting control schemes for jump and shoot. Personally didn't mind it but I thought the knockback made things way harder. For example where I land and there's a bird coming from both left and right, I shoot one and I push into the other. 

Not necessarily a bad thing, I think it comes down to the player figuring out patterns through trial and error. The art and soundtrack were amazing tho! 

Overall well done!!

Developer

I understand what you're saying, though the gun kick is a main mechanic of the game. Maybe a tutorial or a better level design would solve the issue. Thank you for your feedback!

The controls were a bit tough to learn and get used to but overall it was really fun! Simple, re-playable game that makes you want to do better than you did before. 

Submitted(+1)

Cute game, I just couldn't reach the controls to play comfortably! Suggest a different key to shoot maybe:)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your input! I think I just got used to controls while developing, so I wasn't paying enough attention to that. Definitely should've added an alternative control scheme, especially since it doesn't take much time.

Submitted(+1)

Totally totally know that feeling. Sometimes you only know until it's out there!

Submitted(+1)

It is one of the best games on this jam. It''s simple, fun and polished. Remembers me about games like Flappy Bird. Amazing work.

Developer

Thank you! I'm really glad that you liked it!

Submitted(+1)

It's a realy nice game, but jumping and shooting is pretty uncomfortable

Submitted(+1)

Cool and fun arcade game! I missed having sound settings, and the key mapping was inconvenient for me. Nevertheless, great job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your feedback! Actually, I was planning to add an alternative control scheme but completely forgot about it over the course of development 😅

Great player movement. I like the duality of the gun for destroying or dashing. 

Submitted(+1)

Gun kick is very satisfying. Good game

Submitted(+1)

Awesome game! Very fun gameplay and the movement feels great! The only thing I think that might improve this game is a highscore! Great job!

Developer

Thank you! Highscore or leader table would be a great addition indeed.

Great looking graphics, fun gameplay, and good use of the theme. The recoil often got me killed, but once I got used to it, I started using it for my own benefit. The furthest I got was 10 gems. Overall a good entry!

Developer(+1)

Much appreciated! That's just what I tried to achieve with this recoil mechanic. It can be either punishing or rewarding, depending on the use.

Submitted(+1)

I LOOOVE THIS GAME, its so smooth, and fun! I love the recoil that shooting gives you!

Submitted(+1)

Very cool. Very polished and the gameplay feels very punchy and engaging. Great game!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks! For me, game feeling is one of the most important aspects any game. So it's great to hear that.

Submitted(+1)

Really cool and well done!

Developer(+1)

Happy to hear that. Especially since i like your work, great stuff!

Submitted(+1)

It took me a while to find the shoot and jump button, but I really liked the game. Although it is a bit challenging, I think it suits this game.

Developer

Thank you! Yeah, I really should have put controls in the game itself, though you can actually find them on the game's page!
