Love the game! It's intuitive and a good take on the consequence theme.
Though i am having some kind of a performance issue, it's very choppy, even when nothing is happening. Player bullets are also slow, it's hard to dodge and slowly watch the trajectory of the bullet and the enemy of the same time. Id suggest an instant beam, and when it hit the wall, a bouncy missile would spown.
Overall, awesome entry.
Oh the execution of the topic looks familar ;) we had the same cool idea as you too haha. Funny coincidence but hey I really liked your game. cool graphics and nice gameplay, missed a bit of music!
Thanks :)
Very fun to play, good art and good use of the theme, the only thing missing is the music. Good game!
Thanks :)
It's fun to just flood the screen with bullets making it so your bullets are the only ones you have to dodge. It's a simple and fun design making missing your shots somehow punishing and rewarding if you happen to hit another enemy. Nice Job
Thank you very much :)
I appreciate the bullets still being able to hit the opponents after bouncing, so there is great risk/reward situation of just shooting like a madlad or being very precise. Fun game.
Thanks :)
Nice little Asteroids style game.
I like the fact that you took a classic formula and improved it by giving the player more control of their ship with the strafing keys, visually i like the ship designs both player and enemy ones, and i really like the attention to detail of having the thrusters correspond to your movement keys.
The bouncing bullets are also a nice new addon to the formula and spice things up a bit.
didn’t have any particular issue with this one so i can’t say much more.
Good job :)
Thank you very much :)
Bounce Hell is a space themed bullet hell that takes on the jam theme of "consequences" through bouncing bullets, where player and enemy bullets will bounce around the arena if they miss a target.
I played a few times. The movement feels alright, and the ability to point with mouse makes aiming simple and straightforward. Because of the speed and quantity of bullets on the arena, it would be nice to have an ability to slow down so that it's easier to have a player dodge and weave the scatter. It was easy to pass Stage One because enemy bullets would eventually take enemies out, but each time I'd get to Stage Two, I'd quickly take damage haha.
Overall, a solid game with good replayability. The designs were charming as well. It's exciting to see that this will be implemented as a mini-game for Angel Valley's arcade management sim, so I believe it will be a strong and relevant addition! Great work!
Hey thanks for your feedback! And especially thank you for checking out Angel Valley aswell :) means a lot to us
Really enjoyed this one, felt like a nice switch up of the classic asteroid shooter games I used to play as a kid. The idea of bullets bouncing in the arena was a great way to implement the theme of consequences into the game. Nice work!
Thanks! :)
