Very cool idea, very good execution! Leaves a lot of room for creative ideas and room designs. Definitely feels like something that should be expanded upon!
The overall feel is stunning and the gameplay allows for a lot of creativity. My only suggestion would be to change the point direction for the bubbles in the tutorial so that the player has a better grasp on what is being said.
Cool game and cute tutorial ^^
That was fun, I like the idea of having to avoid the turrets you set yourself, and this bossfight was cool enough, although I think its bullet pattern could have changed halfway through its life.
Cool, interesting game, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the feedback and thanks for playing! I actually made whoopsie and left the boss on phase 3 instead of resetting it to phase 1 following some debugging I was doing.
I did not expect a literal build-a-bullet-hell lol. That is such a cool combination of tower defense and bullet hell I love it. It also incorporates the theme of the jam by having limited number of each type of towers to use. Great job!
Very cool game, I think it incorporated the Jam theme well. The art, controls, and sounds are pretty cool. The tutorial at the beginning helps a lot to understand the game.
Really enjoyed the game. Love the art style and the mix of tower defence and bullet hell. I did find the final level was a lot harder than the previous levels and also I got really confused by the hearts, I thought they were a health kit and that I could pick them up because they were the same colour as the coins.
Very fun game and interesting concept! Also good art sytle and good sounds :)
What a fun and inventive twist on bullet hells and tower defence games. The music was a vibe all on it's own but I really enjoyed the way the information came across through the narration of the round mustache man. I was engaged in the gameplay and felt enough challenge within to make winning each round rewarding.
It's an interesting game with some potential. Little story is fun. If invest more time, the game can be even better. I really recommend watch some video about "invisible tutorial". Half of the dialog about mechanics, and I don't thick it's right. It's not really hard mechanics, just give players to try it by himself.
But very good game. Keep it up.
Amazing just amazing

Love the concept and really fits the theme. Clean artstyle. I bookmarked this one to play some more later!
Cool idea with potential. A bit glitchy as the rotating turret sprite doesn't really match up with the shot direction, and I died with some hp remaining (timer hadn't run out either), but overall not a bad demo. An advice I'd give is to make the turret shots move slower as they're a little hard to dodge (and see).
Really cool idea and nice implementation. Had a couple times enemies would spawn right on top of me between waves otherwise really nice!
I was at half health when it killed me which is interesting, otherwise, love the music and the art works well. also the mustaches are a great addition. I hope you continue to improve on the game.
There’s a mechanic where if the timer runs out you instantly die. I would definitely agree that it isn’t nearly transparent enough to indicate that that is what happened though.
Thank you for your feedback, and thanks for playing!
Oh ok got it, definitely would be nice if it mentioned that somewhere, all around you did a great job.
I like mix between strategy games and shoot them up. It's a good mechanics to not "shoot", but it is also frustrating to be blocked with own bullet :'). +1 for a very good tutorial and the cute teacher. Your game is great !
I was vibe-ing in the main menu for a little bit... Just enjoying the tunes and the movement on the screen.
I like how easy it was to place out turrets, I got a bit confused at first with all the screen shake happening, but then I realized I was standing in the bullets from the turrets, woops!
Nice art too!
Overall a super fun and nice experience!
Cool game, good combination of a bullet hell with a tower defense game, the fact that you have to dodge your own bullets too is really cool. I do think that the tutorial UI should be made a bit simpler like the person below me said, other than that, cool game.
Actually a very cool game! I like the twist of having to build towers to beat enemies. I think some of the tutorial UI could use work but overall great work!
