In what way does your game fit the theme?
If you don't kill enemies fast enough you will be in the middle of a chaos. Also a lot of bullets are flying, enemies with different speeds and health running at you etc.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes. But I did use a few coding tutorials.

Very interesting concept, gameplay and cool looking visual but I hope there're more gimmicks and enemies to having fun.
Also have you ever heard of this cool game, Chaos Variants? you should totally try it out and rate it!

Thank you!
I think this is my favorite submission so far, although the skill ceiling seems to be a little low. I think it could do with an easy medium and hard mode but it's very fun to play how it is. My high score is about ~490 ~510, I didn't see it right when I died, which is another thing, I wish it told me my score at the end of each round. Fits the theme perfectly and I love the concept of having to constantly check your surroundings.
Yes, difficulty option would have been great to have thinking back. Death screen showing stats would also have been great, this way the player might be more motivated to keep playing and keep trying to beat the previous kill amount. Very happy do hear you liked it! Also, your high score is bigger than mine :P. Awesome to see so many people suggesting awesome ideas! Thank you :).
This truly is chaos. I like the new spin to the genre with the glowing bullets. The only thing i would improve are more control about the audio. But very intense and funny game.
I will do my best to give the player more control over the volume by making a slider or onoff button next time! Thank you for playing and giving feedback!
Super tight gameplay and very cool graphics! amazing job!
Thanks for playing!
Simple but very nice and clean looking. The winning strategy seems to be to wildly spin in all direction while shooting to see enemies coming up which is kind of disorienting. Maybe instead of shooting giving light you had to choose between light and shooting.
Definitely an interesting suggestion. Thank you for the feedback!
Super cool graphics! Simple but effective gameplay. Little guys might've been a bit too fast, they can really sneak up on you.
I might should have made like different game modes (easy, normal, hard) with different enemy health and speeds. Thank you for playing and suggestion!
Beautifully polished submission!
All the visual juice and postprocessing gave the game so much character! The use of 2D lighting combined with well-designed graphic elements took the simple mechanics and made them very satisfying!
Iโm interested to see how you might build on the game design and sound mixing in the future!
Thank you! Next time I will definitely try to add volume sliders too, but because I am still seeing nightmares from one of my previous projects(android) UI creation, I wanted to do it simply as I can this time :D.
Fun the volume is a lot loud and intense. but overall fun.
Yeah, I should have made an volume slider. Thank you for the feedback!
Nice one! :)
I really liked your graphics :D
Keep it up!
Thank you :)!
i love how simple the game looks but still can deliver some good gameplay
Thank you!
Love the visuals of this game. I think having score instead of kills and having the big guys give you more points would give more incentive to kill them. The way it is now that tradeoff in lacking visibility is not worth going after the bigger enemies.
Yeah having a score instead of kills might indeed be better, I actually also thought about that but when I tried implementing it, my code got a bit too messy and I abandoned the idea :D. But people keep suggestion something similar so I might change it or maybe I will just use this idea in my future games. Anyways thank you a lot!
I love the lighting effect. It makes you constantly search around for enemies to make sure no one creeps up on you from behind.
Very glad to hear this :), a lot of my time went into the lighting(like getting it to feel right, etc) so I'm happy to hear that you liked it!
Nice man! I really like the style of the game, it felt really nice for this game. Loved the lighting!
Thank you! Great to hear you enjoyed the style and lighting!
Great style. A good demo of how to make a simple game play idea look and play great. Love the camera shakes too.
Very happy to hear you liking the camera shakes. Thanks!
Very cool game mechanics. It is very simple and easy to pick up. The tone of the colour goes really well with the overall atmosphere of the game. The gameplay is very enjoyable.
Very good to hear these words, thank you a lot!
This game is very simple, yet fun. I enjoyed it.
Favourite part has got to be the graphics and the atmosphere of the game.
I'm happy you had fun playing it!
Fun and matches the theme very well. Love the graphic approach. Great job.
Thanks a lot!
Not gonna lie, graphics in this game are really something hahaha! congratulations, the fact that the enemies are sometimes hard to see really adds to the "chaos experience". Also the music fits perfectly. Suggestion idea: maybe you should replace the kill counter with a score counter and bigger enemies may give more points(?). in conclusion, very cool game!
I am very happy you liked it! It is an interesting idea for sure, and then maybe the player health and enemy spawn rate should also be connected somehow to the score. Thank you for your suggestion!
thank YOU for making this game! also, could you please try my game too? i would really appreciate it hahaha
I will, your game is next on my list :)!
Wow very juicy and fun game! I did find the shake made it easy to miss the smaller enemies so maybe some small snapping to enemies would have helped but other than that it was v fun :)
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the feedback too :)!
Really cool. So nice looking!!๐
Thank you!
