Wow, for 25 hours this is quite nice! Ok.. 25 x 2 people = 50 hours, but still amazing! 

Submitted

Good game, but I wish that the enemies didn't one shot me.

Amazing art and music! Really underrated.

Submitted

Pretty nice game! I really liked the pixel art!! 

Also, could you check out my game? Thanks!!

Nice game! I'm sure if you had more time this could have been super polished, but I get the grind. I thought the mimics idea was pretty cool and if the bullets were supposed to be invisible, that was also cool. A healthbar would have been nice and doing relative damages. Good work overall though!

Nice little pixel art shooting game. 

Submitted

The graphics are just perfect, in my point of view, you could be more creative with the theme. The music and sound effects were great. Well done !

Submitted

It's a neat idea and makes me shoot at everything just to test if they react to hits. The art, music and sound effects are all really good!

I enjoyed the top down shooter aspect and the items being mimics was a neat touch.  I definitely got a little paranoid walking around, which was a neat feeling.

I would have liked my character (and the camera) to always be facing in the direction of my mouse cursor instead of in the direction of my movement.  There were times where I would be backing up away from an enemy and it would scroll him off the screen so I couldn't shoot him.  A quick and easy thing you could do is to reposition the camera half way between the cursor and the character in world space.  It leads to a nice feeling, I think.

This is a great game!  I think the enemy path finding could use some love, but for a game jam this is great!  And maybe you didn't want the enemies to be all that smart?

Submitted

I really like the mix of 8bit with the lighting effects. Music is pretty cool too! Nice job!

I'd love your thoughts on my game as well. 

Submitted

art is really good, the  only annoying thing is only having one life, but great game overall :)

great game. the music was really quiet though and I had to turn my volume up to full to hear it well

Submitted

The artwork in this one is really, really nice!

It sucks a bit that you only have one life though. Which means one small mistake and you have to start all over. Really kills all the fun

Yeah, I agree, adding atleast checkpoints or more health would have been a good idea.

Please consider checking out my game aswell

Loved the game! Really polished and beautiful artwork. Fits the theme well. One of the best jam games I played this far!

Submitted

Very polished!  The subtle smooth camera movement is nice.  The separate character and cursor mechanic is cool.  And, of course the art is lovely!  Great entry!

Submitted

Love the lighting effects! nice job guys
