Cool Game Love The Art Style And The Concept! Can You Play My Game?

I really enjoyed the game. It has a novel game mechanic, yet is simple to pick up. The replayability is there, though I must agree the difficulty could do with a little tweaking. Still a very great game for a game jam :D!

A very interesting way of fitting the theme! I loved the game, but there wasn't really a difficulty progression system; it doesn't seem all that difficult to survive forever

Awesome game! wasn t expecting all that, though the music was kinda bad but the gameplay is great the artstyle fits the game perfectly myb if you work on it more you could turn it to .io game.

But for a gamejam great entry! 5 Stars (the music 3)

Thanks for playing! Expanding the amount of things you can find in the game is definitely a good idea, unfortunately I couldn't get around to doing it.

Great game! I really like the visuals on this - you've captured the retro vector graphics aesthetic really well, and the gameplay feels good too. Maybe the player could start as a pentagon or something? Starting as a square felt like it made the first shot (which it seemed like you have to hit) the hardest in the game by a long way

Thanks for the feedback! I was trying to make the game such that projectiles weren't the only way to defeat enemies, and well-planned kiting of enemies into obstacles would be a way to survive even with few sides. But I did think maybe starting off with 1 shot might've been a bit stingy of me.
