In what way does your game fit the theme?
It has a chaotic environment
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Code from scratch, but assets were collected from different media with proper licence.

This is awesome!!! You basically made two games in one week, so great job with that :D
I think the pixel art style serves your game well, and you implement it perfectly. The audio is fantastic. Great SFX, love the music switch to chaosworld.
If you were planning on taking this game further than the jam, my critiques would be:
1) the platformer section isn't very fun. I'd spend some time thinking about what makes popular platformers fun and do some of that! Movement options, etc.
2) The camera is working against the player in both your games. I think this can be done intentionally to make a game difficult, but I found it a bad-frustrating. For the shooter section, I'd explore mouse-focused camera options if I were you!
3) The shooter section was too easy (at least up to the point I played) -- I could basically walk into/through enemies whenever and never got punished for it. Your platformer section, on the other hand, was frustratingly difficult. I think hard platformers can only be fun if they have a variety of movement options. I walked into the side of a torch returning from that second key one too many times lol.
4) I had a crash once when switching from platformer to shooter. Can't really give you more info than that sadly :(
Thanks so much for the play and the game! This is a really high quality jam :)
Thanks for the effort. I'll definitely look upon your suggestions. TBH, I planned more on the platformer section but due to time constrain couldn't complete that.
I'm glad that you liked it. :D
The pixelart is so cool also I love the glowing effects you put on stuff they make the game looks so good :D
Ohh I really like how the pixelart fits the game and I specially like the animations and transitions! Great job :D
very polish game, awesome work
Great game! Loved the way you implemented the theme. Good job!
Would appreciate if you rate mine: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-6/rate/1176432
Quite interesting!
Man what an exhilarating experience, took me a bunch of tries but i finished it! that was funnnn. Loved that top down bullet hell kind of minigame, tho without the timer i would have died always lol. Keep up the good work, and best of luck!
Great Game!
The genre switching is really nice
damn the genre switch was a great idea !
how good do you think my game is ? -->https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-6/rate/1178211
Damm, switching between 2 types of genres is a really interesting take
i like game graphics , good job
The combining of 2 different game genres was a wonderful idea.
Love it lots! The switching concept is unique and the soundtrack and SFX are REALLY good!
Keep it up and don't hesitate to expand your ideas more!
Nice concept!
definitely a very interesting idea. I think some occasional health items would've been a nice addition for the demon slaying part of the game.
The environment is rather chaotic
The graphics look nice!
The only criticisim would be that it looks like the graphics aren't consistent!
Other than that great game!
And checm out my game as well!
Nice game concept! Really fun
Super graphics.
Wow! Congratulations. It's a very nice Game. I have enjoyed very much.
