Really fun bullet-hell-like game. I enjoyed the cutscenes, and I thought the music was really good. I enjoyed this a lot, good entry!

All I know is suffering. Seriously though your game is really good. Well done.

I loved the music, but the third level was veery frustrating. The art is nice, although I think the character and shield sprites don't fit the background sprites.

Thanks for the PTSD, 10/10

Props to Oliver for the music!

Cool game! It remind sme of the game Just Shapes And Beats. Enjoyed it:)

love the music, the idea overall is quite interesting and would be really cool if refined a little more. but great job for the game jam entry

Loved the music🎧🎶🎵🎧🎵🎶🎧

Loved the music, I think you should make more music for the different levels.  It felt a lot like Just Shapes and Beats.  The ice spikes were really tough to avoid, maybe a bit too tough, it felt like I needed to get into the perfect spot in order to dodge everything thrown at me.  The background was also a bit distracting.  The game is very impressive, though.  I think you did really well.

Hard game

I just finished rating your game, and here is my constructive criticism as promised. I think there are a few elements to the game that need to be revised and a few others that need to be embraced. I'm going to start with the things that need to be improved, and move on to the things that should be embraced.

For starters, the game could provide the player with more feedback to let them better interpret what is happening in the game. Things like sound effects, death animations, and highlights are all necessities when it comes to building a game. The player should easily be able to tell what's bad and how much time they have to dodge said bad thing. Yes, the tutorial shows players what to look out for, but you know you have a good system in place when a player can play without looking at the tutorial and know exactly what is bad just by looking at it. For example, most zombie games aren't going to say "Hey, avoid the zombies, and kill them if you can" in the tutorial, because players should be able to work this out for themselves. Changing your colour palette and maybe doing some animations to turn the lines into lasers would do a great job of communicating this to your players.

Speaking of which, you should revise the colour palette that you used in the game. Make sure that every individual element pops with as little effort as possible. Choose maybe 3 or 4 colours that stand out from each other and use them throughout the majority of the game. Purple does not stick out in front of blue, but orange certainly will. A good example of this is SuperHot. They only use 3 colours in the whole game, but that's all you need to identify exactly what you need, what you can interact with, what to avoid, all while having every colour visually distinct so that nothing in the foreground or background is getting confused.

Don't move the camera around like you did in the 3rd phase. It's nauseating. You can add maybe a bit of screen shake and use movement in other ways, but I straight up got a headache trying to play that level. If you really want to keep it, find a better way of doing it so that it has the same effect on the gameplay without being nauseating.

Finally, you should really do more with the player's companion that they are trying to save. I didn't play to completion, because I seriously couldn't handle that 3rd level, so I'm not sure if that character does get a use further on. But if you didn't, it was a serious missed opportunity. Being able to interact with them or use their electricity to fight back could have given a more unique and interesting play style to your game that it could really use to stand out from the other games in this jam. Maybe the player should be forced to stay within a certain distance of the companion to get some kind of bonus. You'll have to do some trial and error to see what works, but having that extra character without incorporating him into the direct gameplay of the game just feels like a wasted opportunity to me.

I hope this feedback helps. If you have any questions, or any concerns, don't be afraid to bring them up :)

It's little bit difficult for european keybord to play!

A unique concept and fun game. The game is difficult a bit but I guess that's what makes it fun to beat (like super meatboy). I didn't appreciate level 3 though, for a person with motion sickness that level was night mare to go through and I almost gave up after a couple of tries. If you plan to expand the game post jam, I would suggest working on game art a bit. The music was fantastic and matched the mayhem. Overall a fun game, enjoyed it quite a bit. 

Great game concept, fun experience. The music is fantastic! Although game itself is really challenging and satisfying when you manage to beat every level. Good job, nicely done! :)

Agree with the previous commenters, the difficulty is a little too high. Maybe give a little more time for the player to react? Nice job otherwise, the art is cute!

It's definitely chaotic, I'll give you that. You could the lasers a bit more anticipation, so the player can react. Same with the projectiles, which are a bit too fast. 

Nice game. Had fun playing it. It fits the theme well and has nice music too.
