GREAT atmosphere! You really nailed the creepy hostile world vibe. The pixel art looks great combined with the lighting effects. The music and sfx create a really creepy ambience. Jetpacking around is fun and I like how there's technique to shooting your projectile. I was a little unclear on how to restore the light resource. I was collecting these orbs that gravitated towards me but they didn't seem to be recharging my light resource. I also found torches that would teleport me to different areas. Eventually I got stuck in an area where there was an inaccessible torch. It's a shame because I wanted to keep exploring the world. Very solid entry!

Hey, Rishabh I love the feel of the game, nice lighting. I didn't notice if it's a roguelite but that's the feeling I got, a bit like the classic Spelunky. Not sure if I got how the game incorporates the theme. An into or backstory might help. But I hope you take this game further, best of luck Bhai :)

Nice. Reminds me of Soldat :) I didn't understand the use of green things.  They don't seem to harm, nor give anything. May be  if you add some instructions would be great. Mechanics are awesome.

Thanks for feedback. I will try to include them. ☺️☺️
