This game has so much potential and its insane that u had the time to add a leaderboard well done!

This game so addicting, I top the highest score and I instantly hit restart and forgetting there's a submit score button. One of the best i've played in the jam

I like it, was very fun and well made! I only got somewhere around 600 points lmao. (Ngl game kinda gives me "mobile game" vibes hehe).

Submitted

Fun, fast paced action. Very well made!

Thank you! I'll get around to your game later, I don't have access to my Windows PC at the minute. It'll be towards the end of the week I think 😅

I like dynamic games, but not so difficult) I barely scored 700 points ...

Really cool! Reminds me of Geometry Wars and the online leaderboard is very nice. Keep working on this and put it on mobile, this has potential

Developer

Thank you! 😁I'll need to work out on-screen thumbsticks for mobile, I might just go for Xbox first 🤔

I'll play and give feedback on your game once I'm back on my Windows PC, will be a little bit of time before I get to it sorry!

The shooting and fast movement is very fun but the infinite map  and the fact that enemies don't spawn fast enough when you're constantly moving entices you to just choose one direction and run, collecting all the bits on the way. Overall, great game for what did you say? 24h?

Thank you! Yeah it is not particularly well balanced unfortunately, though for a "post-jam" version I am definitely going to fix that. I've got a lot of possible ideas! 

It was around 24 hours, yeah 😅

Really fun Game!
I liked the overall look and feel of the game. The online Leaderboard is a nice touch!
The only semi-criticism i could give is that i found it pretty hard to regain my bits and just ended up drifting diagonally through the map until i had collected some. But overall a pretty fun experience!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I definitely meant to add health regen pickups, I just didn't get around to it unfortunately. I've played your game, just waiting for the youtube video to upload - I'll comment on your game page when it's done!

Online leaderboard! Great job, very polished!  I was a little confused as to what I needed to do to get a powerup (run over the star things? shoot the star things?).  Music was excellent as well.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! You just move near the blue pentagons, they'll automatically be added. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I'll get to your game when I've got my windows PC, which might be a little while 😬

Great game!!, I am not so good at this but it's very fun!

This game is amazing! The graphics and visual effects are cool and the game is really fast pace. You have to get used to the controls and mechanics though (I didn't know that explosions damaged you for quite some time for example). When you do however you could play this all day long. Overall a great game and the one I played most so far!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely make sure I make the explosion damage more clear in the post-jam version :) I've given my feedback for your game on your page, and uploaded a gameplay video.
