For some reason, the graphics feel really appealing to me, nice job!

Nice work! Convenient control and easy atmosphere)

Really fun gameplay, mechanically all it's missing is something that shows the dash cool down since part way though I completely forgot I had a dash.

The weapon mechanics are excellent, makes for a ton of variety and cool combos. I did really dislike the crumpled paper background, without having a custom mouse cursor for the game it was real easy to lose track of my pointer as I changed from screen to screen.

Overall very cool and well thought out.

Developer

Thanks for playing

Pretty fun game, very unique and cool artstyle.

Developer

thank you :)

Really nice game! I really liked the style this game has, reminds me of doodle jump :)

Some minor suggestions I have is to make the sound effects louder, since they seem to be quiet and the music (which I like the music) drowns out the sound effects. I would also maybe not make the enemies spawn too close to the player at the start of the level. But other than that cool game. 

Developer

Thank you :) there should be sliders for the different volume types

I enjoyed it, its currently 2AM so I can't listen to game audio or I'd wake the fam, but one thing I'd like to see added is some easier controls for laptop users like myself. Moving the character with a touch pad mouse is difficult. Maybe add optional keyboard controls like the old doom games using the arrow keys as a way to rotate the character and left control and left shift to fire and dash. Aside from that I enjoyed the game. I didn't make it far due to my control setup but once I get my computer I could definitely see myself playing this. It reminds of a old flash game my friends and I played back in junior high. Except that game had zombies and was survival based.

I hope you can enjoy it with a mouse later :)

I really enjoyed the gameplay, however the art style and audio was not my cup of tea.

The art style, background, and mechanics are great! There are also a lot of random weapons to choose from! Good job!

Developer

Thanks :)

I think you could have spent more time on the textures, I personally don’t like the scribble art take. But the game is fun to play!

Developer

Textures were pretty last minute yeah, I still kinda like the look though even if its objectively bad lol

Submitted(+1)

I like the variety of weapons and stats you put here

Developer

Thank you, I would have liked to add more though haha

Submitted(+1)

I liked this game a lot! I was a little confused how it worked at first (I thought the 'E' items were upgrades not separate guns), but I was able to figure it out pretty quickly

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you :) , a short tutorial would have been a good idea

Great game . artstyle of the game is really cool. Try using fingerpaint font for the menu . It might look good.

Developer

Thank you lol
