I enjoyed playing this one quite a bit! The additional  mechanics that happen really force you to mix up how you play.

Some things I noticed though is that the "no shooting for you" and "hitting enemies loses points " feel to be about the same thing because both you are not shooting and just trying to dodge.

The other thing is that the "getting hit gives you points" is by far the main source of points so it kind of makes it feel like killing enemies isn't the main goal.

Overall I think its one of the better games I have seen in this Jam so good job!

Developer

yeah i see what you mean about the losing points and no firing. although you might be willing to lose points to get rid of some enemies to prevent the screen from getting to flooded with enemy fire.  I kinda just rushed making up the effects really quick so didn't really think how to make them feel unique from each other thanks for the feed back.

Nice retro blaster game, reminds me of the days visiting the local arcade! Nice.

This was fun! Adapting your playstyle to suit the different effects was a good challenge! Nice work :)

Nice. You need the skill to keep concentrated on the enemies while looking at the effect you are within. 

Developer

yeah If I had more time I would have made some kind of visual display on the ship as well so you didn't need to read stuff all well. Thanks for playing my game.

I mean, it is nice how it is right now! ;)

I enjoyed the effects!  Luck can really be against you to go from 'lose points for killing enemies' to 'no weapons for you', but when you happen to get lucky you can get a really good run!  I like the ship itself being the damage indicator.

yeah just wish I was able to get the 2nd enemy type and some other little fixes  before the jam ended all well I have that done and ready to upload when the rating for the jam is done.

Good game. I always like space shooter games and I find this game enjoying a little, but I don't really like some of those effects. I still like it anyway.

Developer

i am assuming the ones where you can't fire and lose points for killing enemies are the ones you really didn't like? Thanks for playing the game though.

Very enjoyable, aspecially for a jam game (except no weapons for you phase)

lol yeah I wonder if I should have made that one only last 5 seconds instead of 10 since its pretty brutal.

Super smooth. I was doing great! Until no weapons for you :(

yeah that one really messes things up for sure, thanks for trying out my game.
