Just incredible use of OS cursors - probably the best I’ve seen in any game. Though I have to admit it gives me anxiety that the bullets really are individual <li> tags.
Off the top of my head, not that I can think of, besides a lot of point and click games changing the cursor to indicate what actions you could take (examine, talk to, etc.)
But what I really liked about it here was that it indicates your current state, so you know if you’re doing damage/taking damage without having to look away from the cursor at all. I feel like you could carry that idea into any mouse-based game and it would work really well :0

This is pretty fun! I included it in my Games Made Quick??? Four compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
thanks! I relied to your tweet about it and I suppose I could post that as a comment too :)

<li>tags.Thanks! Are there other games that use OS cursors? I'd love to see what others have done with them.

Yeah that's what I was going for! I'm glad it worked for you. :)
