I love this game, gives me a feeling of a sensei. Fantastic!
Great job! the only critique I can give is maybe having a little better player feedback and some polish/juice to make it really feel good to play!
The enemy bullets need to be easier to see. They are very small and are a lighter color against a lighter background.
Fun simple gameplay loop. It works well and it's replayable.
Good job!
If you have another person and a controller available to plugin please check out my game!
Loved it! I like the concept and the mechanic you added, also the player sprite looks cute :D though the bullets are quite hard to see so I die randomly, but it is very good!
Thanks a lot for the feedback!
Really like the concept. It fits theme very well. The game is challenging and i like the pace but when you get hit you respawn and it slows down it, could be just heart loss+shield. Bullets blend with floor, should make them brighter, glowing or add particles. And imo it screams to have option of killing robots by deflecting bullets to them, maybe with not a single hit but still. Love level design here, rooms have variety and difficulty are escalating.
Thanks a lot for the feedback ^^
The first concept was that one, to reflect the bullets to kill the enemies. But when we tried we saw 2 things, the chaos level was insane it was very difficult to see the bullet that kill the enemy. And was hard to focus at the bullet and the enemy at the same time. That why we changed the idea.
About use heart loss instead of death is a good idea, it is something we can change in the future.
^^
Hi, Your game is really cool.
I'd love you to play and rate mine. Its unique platformer and top-down blending. This is my first jam BTW. Please check the gameplay, I bet you will love the challenge when you play by yourself.

Thanks!
This game is great, my biggest gripe with it is that the goal is to survive x amount of time. I'm not sure why you didn't tie it to "destroy x amount of capacitors". I feel like that would've made the game more interesting and action based.
High scores are okay but if you're playing to get to the next level, the optimal strat is to sit there and play ping pong instead of going out to destroy stuff.
I really like a lot of how this game operates, I think it's great that you get a Pacman like powerup that lets you kill enemies on a timer.
I think the menu music is a bit more interesting and maybe better for gameplay than the gameplay music, maybe just personal preference. Most of the sounds are good although there could be some variation on the enemies shooting.
Thanks for the feedback!!!
The idea of destroy "x amount of capacitors" was one of the approaches that we thought, and use time instead of high score (faster the player finish the game more score). With more time we thought in use this 2 kinds of level per capacitor or per time.
We are happy that you liked ^^
Yea varying the goal could be cool as well.
Very fun game with great visuals and animations!
Thanks, Luka!
Nice game!
Some UI that shows how much time an active power up has left could be nice.
I wonder if putting the health and other UI above or bellow the player would make it better, so that you could get the information without taking your eyes off of the action.
True! We thought about putting a timer on the powerups, especially the shield. In the end, we didn't have enough time to get it in the game, but definitely a good idea. Thanks for playing!
The game looks very good and polished but the menus look amazing!
Well done!
I'm so glad you like it!!
Nice game (*•̀ᴗ•́*)و ̑̑ I think it needs hold attack clicking is exhausting.
We didn't think of that! We were actually planning on having a cooldown between attacks but ended up leaving as is because of the amount of enemy projectiles in scene. Thanks for the feedback!
So much polish on the menus and in the cute animations! The capacitors were a great idea to encourage players to make riskier plays. Since surviving seems like the primary goal, it would be sick to have unlockables or trophies for scoring high enough!
Thanks for playing! Glad you like them!
The game is so polished and fits the theme well! The art, UI, music and gameplay are all great!
Great job! :D
Thanks a lot!!!
Cool graphics bro! I like them!
Thanks a lot!
Nice ga
Thanks!
just amazing guys, even sucking at bullet hell games I love it, good touch with the art and the gameplay
Thanks a bunch!! I'm glad it gave you some joy!
I had a lot of fun with this game. The art is cool, the UI looks crisp, sound effects fit the game really well and the gameplay is both smooth and fun. Great job!
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
This game is really fun, a cool mechanic for sure! It fit the theme perfectly. The art and ui was also really good. Great job!
Thank you so much!
This is a very complete game, well done. Cool sounds, very appealing UI and nice game play. I would love to wreck those enemies when reflecting their bullets, would be a plus. Nice job, had fun playing it
Thanks a lot!
The idea of the game was to destroy the enemies with that bullet that you ricochet, but we changed in the middle of the processing
But we added a POWER UP that you destroy the bullets and the enemies ^^
I was confused at first but then I figured out what to do after I kept dying. The UX feels very nice (menu, getting into the game, etc.) and the art style fits well!
Thanks a lot ^^
