I really liked the concept of this game, it was original, interesting and really fun too! The game also fits the chaotic theme very well! The polish with things such as particles and screen shake also really tie the game together! My only issue was the game window was a bit too big for my screen but, that didn't stop me from enjoying this game. Great job!

This game is super fun. And I could play it a lot. It's super chaotic and original I have never seen anything like it.

I wished that the score counter would appear during the game and not just afterwards.

The sound effects were great. The explosions and screen shake made it more realistic and chaotic.

Actually really cool concept! Would love to see some updates. Maybe different gunner upgrades or shaped objects.

Developer

Thank you

More content would probably help the game, but I will most likely work on other projects instead.

Thanks though

At first I had to figure out why I wasn't losing health until I realized I was protecting the star. It did make things more difficult but in a really fun way.

Developer

Thank you,

I should have probably added some kind of tutorial. Glad you still figured it out.

Hey!

I liked the gameplay mechanics a lot, it's a nice subversion of the "just shoot stuff" theme that a lot of people do and added an extra layer of challenge.

I think that the controlls affected the player's position a little bit too much, I was kinda taken back by how much a simple keystroke moved the character. I also think that if the bombs had some sort of indicator as to how long they had to explode it really would have improved the experience.

I thought all the VFX and SFX were pretty neat and appealing and think this game was really cool!

Developer

Wow so much feedback

Thank you :D

Hello. I like your game. I is very chaotic like the game jam theme. Is enjoyable, but I give you an advice, put the size of the game in the browser of 854 x 480, so your game will be playable in the screen and it will be comfortable. Also, You have to configure the full screen option in the edit page of your game. Cheers.

Developer

Thank you

Scaling the game kinda messed up the pixel art and I didn't want to deal with that, but you're right. Thanks for the advice though
