Wow! Very entertaining and love the minimalist - pixel design. Music was great and controls were fun to play with. Dash mechanic could use some tweaking since it felt like spamming it made levels too easy but otherwise great job! 5/5
dashing is fun! solid entry with variation in bullet patterns
Really enjoyed this, but I feel the dash pushes the player a little too far at some points.
Other than that, solid experience.
I really loved this game and its idea. I don't mind the simple graphics, but I think the movement needs a bit of a tweak. Since I could not aim where I wanted to go (the movement is always kinda the same distance), I died many times by failing to calculate my trajectory. I think if you were to move to the mouse position (with a distance limit, of course), it could be easier to plan and even more fun.
Great, great work :D
Thanks so much for playing my game! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'll definitely implement these changes if I do go back to work on the project.
I LOVE the use of 2D physics on Bullets.
Level design and Gameplay are fun so yeah I really enjoyed your game !!
Just two things :
- the visual is simple, and maybe add some light effect or blur would make it more cool.
- the music stop after a while.
Great Job !!
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed playing my game!
I really enjoyed this one! I love the blob, the dashing animation and camera movement, it gives the player a good sense of speed. The fast resets never making dying too punishing too. Very well done!
Thank you!
This is a really nice game :) The art style and soundtrack are awesome and fit perfectly together. The difficulty gradually increases by introducing new bullet behaviors and spawn mechanics but the player is always eased into new situations.
The only problem for me was the input layout (the controls themselves work really well and direct) of having movement on WASD but dashing on the mouse. I think for me it would have been easier to have everything controlled by the mouse or the keyboard. Like LMB = fly towards mouse cursor, RMB = dash towards the mouse cursor.
I really enjoyed the game :)
Thank you for the feedback, I definitely should've considered different input layouts for everyone. Thanks for playing!
Wow this controls REALLY WELL. It's fun, doesn't reward spamming, and has enough challenge that it feels good when you get past a puzzle. Great job.
Thanks!
When i first saw the unchanged basic template for the games page i set my exceptions kinda low when i started playing realized i was wrong to have done that it was a lot of fun and the controls were really good.
I'm glad I surpassed your expectations, thank you for playing!
A difficult but fun bullet hell gauntlet! I really enjoyed it.
Many thanks!
Really fun! quite difficult, but played it through to then end. It's great that you never lose a lot of progress when you die. Makes it fun to play despite the difficulty.
Thanks for playing!
