THESE PIXEL CHEEKS HAVE BURNED MY EYES.
such a blast to play, very binding of Issac-y. I am not a pixel artist but I am a pixel artist enjoyer and I enjoyed this immensely.
Thank you! I'm glad those pixel cheeks are enjoyed!
I really like the boss animation. And the attack patterns are also great. One time the boss got struck in the black zone and returned back within a few seconds. But that was not a major problem anyways. I liked the cutscene and the artstyle a lot :)
I'm glad that bug didn't stop you from enjoying the game! Thank you for playing!
Had a bit of trouble with the shooting controls as a trackpad user, but I loved the game! The art style is great as usual, and I loved the little storyline at the beginning! Would like to see this as a full game one day!!
Thank you!
I love it! The opening cutscene is awesome. I really liked the way you did the tutorial as well. As for the gameplay itself, the shooting and moving feel quite satisfying. The bosses attacks were well telegraphed and fun to dodge. I think a dodge roll would be nice though.
I did want to add a dodge roll but, unfortunately ran out of time. Thanks for playing!
Superb booty bounce on the left and right movement. That's all it takes for five stars from me!
Well now I have to add booty bounce to all my future games. Thanks for playing!
As others have said, very awesome opening cutscene! I never played Binding of Isaac but I definitely got that vibe from the intro and artstyle as well. The bossfight itself was very fun, shooting felt extremely satisfying! I think my only point of feedback is that a lot of the attacks felt like they shouldn't have been hitting me, but must have been just at the tail-end. I also wish I could have moved under the boss when he jumps up while chasing me. Those small points aside though, I still thoroughly enjoyed it, well done!
Yeah, I think I botched the hit box on one of his attacks. Sorry about that! Thank you for playing, and for the feedback!
No kidding about pixel butts!
As people have mentioned, amazing Binding of Isaac vibes, fantastic pixel art and that intro was genius! off to go subscribe to your stuff!

Thanks for playing! Bummer I missed the stream, but I got to watch the VOD. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
That opening scene really got me ready explore the depths of her basement ready to kill ghosts. Definitely has some strong Binding of Isaacs vibes with the art style.
I enjoy the little boss and I hope we get to see more from this world. Great job.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Jesus this game was amazing! The opening cutscene was very well made and The art in general was so good! plus the gameplay was insanely good and the shotgun felt super good with all the effects.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I loved the art and the cutscene at the beginning was really cool. For some reason I thought I needed to aim before each shot and it took me a while to realize I could just hold the button and deal a lot more damage. After figuring this out I had fun beating the game, nice work!
Thank you so much! Just got done playing your entry and absolutely loved it!
I told this last time and I am telling this now, this is TOP 1 for me.
Wow! Thank you very much!
Your character is awesome and I love the whole presentation of the game and it plays really nicely
Thank you very much!
Amazing visuals as always, would really love to see this as a full game. Got hyped seeing the thumbnail and here's hoping it will one day be realised! 5 stars from me!
Thank you! I ended up making filler characters just because the thumbnail felt empty. Glad you enjoyed it!
Well done!
I did hit an issue where the little butt man would constantly go right but restarting seemed to clear it.
Thank you! I'm sorry you ran into that issue, but glad it didn't deter you from playing!
Visually this game is beautiful, amazing work. The boss itself is also really well done, good job!
Thank you!
Loved the artwork and story. Great game all around, would love to see more!
Thank you!
Definitely love the BoI style. Also had issues with the bouncing when too close. But that aside, no complaints. Very good entry. Nice work!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it despite the bouncing issue!
That cutscene is one of the greatest things I have experienced in all of GDKO 2023. Excellent boss fight, too! Icy mentioned this, too, but there seemed to be times I was stuck getting bounced on multiple times if let him get too close, but it still felt like a fair fight!
Thank you! I probably spent more time doing cutscenes/art then I should have! Some sort of knock back probably could have fixed this issue, my bad! Thanks for the feedback!
LOVE the art style!!!! BOI is a great inspiration. I found it difficult to get away from the bouncing towards me attacks, I wish there was a dash. and not too big a fan of the standing still while shooting, although I can see that being necessary to add the challenge! Overall amazing job! So clean and precise gameplay.
I had planned for there to be a dash, but had to cut it at last hour. Truthfully, I'm not a huge fan of the standing still either, but it was necessary in this instance. Thank you for the feedback!
that was great! it felt like biding of Issac and i love the art style! the boss attacks were fun to learn and dodge as well! but after i died the first time and knew what to do it was really easy to kill them
Thanks for playing! The Binding of Isaac was a huge inspiration! Glad you enjoyed it!
