Ranked from 43 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.
In what way does your game fit the theme?
Not only do player bullets hurt the player, but after 20 seconds, all bullets swarm after the player until 10 seconds are up. This creates for some chaotic situations!
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
All of the code was written by one member of our team and the graphics were made by the other! However, the music used in "Robot Escape" was taken from an asset pack who we credited in our game's description.

Nice game! Kinda wish the player moved a bit faster maybe.
bouncing bullets, and then homing bullets, are great ideas for this jam.
Controls were easy to use, and it was quick into the action.
Did find a bug where if i fired my gun to close to an enemy, i couldn't fire anymore, think I had a similar thing in my own game whilst building it.
Great job on completing your first jam with this fun game, well done!
Bullethell is the most obvious interpretation of the theme, but the idea with your own bouncing bullets was very cool. Also the following bullets really get the theme.
Sounds and music also included, so all in all a good polished game for a Jam :)
Ooh, checkpoints, very fancy! You can tell a lot of thought/good planning went into this game, really polished for something made in a week.
A really amazing game liked every thing the audio is amazing too, just wished I can dodge bullets with other bullets
This is really cool. I like that the bullets and movement are a bit slower than a typical "bullet hell" game. Usually I prefer a gamepad binding for twin-stick shooters like this, but mouse worked well for this speed and provided great precision. It's satisfying to hide around a corner and watch bullets hit the wall. The battery placements are much appreciated as well. :) I only have minor quibbles - e.g. it would've been nice if the HUD (battery level, timer) were semi-transparent. But overall, this is amazing. Great art, great core mechanic.
I totally hear you on the New Input System and simpler options. I'm new to Unity in general, but [on my own game] I was struggling to capture touch coordinates with the new input system. So after a bit of Googling, I just wimped out and read mouse coordinates directly. That's what v1.1 is for, I guess. :)
Ahh I just wanted to move a bit faster so badly. But still a wonderful game!
I enjoyed this game, I liked the bullets having a timer before chasing after the player, it was satisfying to get chased by a bullet then lead it into an enemy. If you wanted to improve, some form of score system would be nice. Overall, fun game!
Really fun game, The audio and visuals were great. The game would have been perfect if there was a something like a shield which can be used to protect the robot when all the bullets are flying towards the it.
Really fun! It was really clever to make the player bullets damage you! Also i wasn't expecting the bullets to go after me, that part was really scary haha, to make the game perfect i think i would've added a dash or something similar to have something more to dodge the bullets! (I lacked that in my game too). But overall it was a really good game :))
Really creative idea with the taking control of bullets. Love the art to
Really nice graphics and the fact that bullets swarm towards the player forces them to think strategicly about when to shoot and approach enemies. In my opinion the game was a little bit too hard and more checkpoints would have been nice. I also wish the player was a little bit faster to make it easier to dodge bullets.
I hope it was a little easier but everything else was amazing and mainly I liked the idea that your bullets can hurt yourself
