just writing this here so people know the best way to play, as I didn't do a good job in explaining this in the game itself, my bad and the only way I can think of to rectify this subtly is...

Awesome Game. Love the green bullets. Really can't play it without a controller, but most of all Sick art Style 😆 I LOVE IT. My only advice is just put some of the instruction in the menu or just put controller Icon in it.

Sick art style! Needs more detailed instructions though.

Great job!

I love the art in this game, i think its very cool, but i find it hard to know what should I do there or what can i do, maybe add some instruction can make this game better, Nice job man!!

I couldn't figure out how to shoot, some additional hints would of been great! As the graphics and menu were all amazing! Find my YT Review Below:

Loved the video. I havn't seen anyone actually play this game, so it's extremely valuable to see how frustrating the game is and how I'm not giving clear instructions, as alot of people have said the same thing.
I have amended my game's description to try and be clearer. Thank you

Absolutely love the aesthetic in this. Went for a really nice 2D style, way better than anything I can do for 2D :)

Fantastic job. Come try my game, super polished :P

Great submission!
I like visual style and graphics.

Great game. Amazing graphics! Should mention about needing a controller I nearly missed the comment and end up thinking the gun cant aim. 

Submitted(+1)

This game has such a unique vibe to it. I love it! My gun seemed to be a bit buggy but apart from that, everything was great. Love the music, the character, the vibe itself!

Artstyle is great! I think making aiming with right stick would be better though

i love your style, great work

Looks gorgeous, fantastic art style. What I miss is a game objective. It's not clear for me what to do and I don't see a relation to the theme. 

Also, a minor nitpick. The game doesn't support 21:9 aspect ratio. It crops the top and bottom parts of the screen. Not a big issue though.

I had two characters who were meant to be used.  but as time lumbed I had to take away the goal. I wanted this monster who had kidnapped your partner to be ever out of reach but provide occasional boss fights, but I didn't have time.

Hey, the art looks very good. (expect the gun, it doesnt flip properly!) intro was really good! some sound effect for the enemies and the player wouldnt hurt.

Would be awesome if you could play & rate my game aswell! Thank you, tiimo :3

Awesome game, really digging the Lovecraftian vibe.  Atmosphere is spot on!

Submitted(+1)

Intro, art, and music are great! Easier to play with a controller.

Submitted(+1)

Nice graphics my friend ! The menu/intro is amazing ! The menu's soundtrack fits well but i'm not too fan of the choice for the ingame music !
I like the post process too with this blur effect ! I could easily play with my gamepad, so I can shoot those children of Ctulhu !
It's quite random when you fall, and so fits well to the theme, you can jump into 3-4 ennemies or 2 gun upgrades even it can be frustrating ! Keep it up !

HOLY SHOTT!! I LIKE YOUR INTRO AND GRAPHICS!! THIS IS SO GREAT!!

Submitted(+1)

Might be unplayable with keyboard as I couldn't use the weapon in any meaningful way.
But holy damn was the graphics absolutely gorgeous! And that opening scene!  
Good stuff!

Submitted(+1)

Holy shit the animations of the opening was just mindblowing. Use of Audio is perfect to set the mood. My problem was with gameplay and lack of proper mention of controls. like in the opening it says press A but we need to press Space instead. But Amazing looking and sounding game!!

Submitted(+1)

The game has great art, really impressive. Though it felt it lacked a lot of audio and final touch ups. well done Nonetheless!

Submitted(+1)

An absolutely amazing game! The visual are perfect and it's amazing that you manage to complete this in a week. The level design is very fun and engaging and it made me play for quite awhile. I passed -1000m. Is there an ending to this and what distance is it? The art style is really good and it gave me some oxygen not included vibes when looking at it. The choice of music is also very nice. The intro also got me hooked immediately. Well done on this amazing game. Good luck on the jam!
