I really liked the art, simple but pretty, quite fun but I couldn't get past two minutes, I think I'm pretty bad haha

Excellent game, I couldn't get further than ~2min, but the bullet patterns seemed quite fair and I love the minimalist challenging design.

This is well-made and polished! It feels natural to control and the variety and spectacle of the attacks are superb. I do wonder about the shield though - it seems to me that it accumulates corruption faster than any of the attacks would really threaten to, and while I think it could potentially prove useful on phase 7 for dodging bursts of attacks as you get to a new location, it still seems too damaging of an option to choose, unless you know when the wave ends. But I do understand that it's a difficult balance to strike - make it too useful, and it might cheapen the player's experience. So I think you made good decisions in making this game. Well done and very unique and well-executed concept, thanks for creating this!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! Yeah, I actually didn't plan on adding the shield, but I needed something to fit the theme of the game jam, so I decided to add it. The idea of the shield is to use it as little as possible, because the game can be beaten without it.

This was pretty fun! My only real complaint is that there isn't much feedback for getting hit! Took me a few times to realize that I even did get hit. Other than that, this was fun!! (also you can stand still for phase 3 and not get hit :P)

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! (Yeah, I know about the phase 3, will patch it after the gamejam ends :D)

I like this. It honestly game me an idea for incorporating shapes into a bullet hell. I might have to play with the concept. Came here from your youtube btw.

I did 02:27 the best. I can consistently reach Phase 7 with very low corruption but this one I absolutely can't parse, I was actually very lucky this one time which is why I survived it a bit.

The game is fun, one thing I really like is how the sequences are queued pretty quick without dead time yet you really don't specially get hit during a transition phase.

The implementation of the theme is hilarious.

This is a cool game, thanks for sharing.

Developer

Thank you for playing! Also for the phase 7, the best way to survive it, is to move as much as possible :D

I survived till phase 6, the big polygon bullets got me in the end. Good work!  It's one those games that doesn't let you slack off haha

Developer

Thank you for playing! <3

I was confused at the start that you controlling this white little guy with mouse instead of big red guy with keyboard. Cool idea, I played till 7th wave and I still don't know why clicking mouse gives me corruption and makes me dead (I don't know what it is doing). I also recommend to delete the cursor from the game, at the end you are this little white guy and he is occluded by the default windows cursor

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback, and clicking the mouse gives you a shield around the player :D. Using the shield corrupts you, that's the consequence :D

Cool take on the theme and a neat gameplay concept

I was a bit confused at first that you don’t have any kind of weapon but once it clicked i had fun zooming about.

The full mouse only controls are top notch it makes for very precise navigation around patterns so i managed to hold up way longer than i expected, i reached up to phase 7

Nice entry you did well ^^

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback, I also reached phase 7 on my first full try of the game :D, now I can hit phase 11 quite consistently.

this is really cool! wish it had some music but i played copyright free breakcore in the backround to make up for it lol

Developer

Thank you so much! Yeah, I should really learn how to make some tunes and better sfx.
