What did you eat/drink during the jam?
I drank water, because I had nothing else. Also I drank hot chocolate, but only because I was absolutely freezing. I ate pizza for the same reason.

Cool Game Loved It! Can You Play My Game?
Of course!
Very cool! I love the random generation, and all the enemies are unique and fun! I wish the shooting was a tad less randomized, because it can be hard to aim where you want. Other than that, the game is great, and the art looks quite nice as well!
Thank you so much for the feedback :) The aim is randomised to keep players from sniping enemies from too far back. Risk vs reward, kind of.
It was a great experience!
I adore the simplicity of this game. Most of the submissions in this game jam have gone very hard with the visuals by forgetting to stay with the jam's restrictions, but this game was on-point in regard to that!
Apart from those, I adore what you have done with different types of enemies. It was fun to learn their movement and fight them.
I think the game can use a lot of polish and turn into an amazing experience overall, but even in its current phase, it offers a lot!
Solid entry, good job!
Thanks so much! I do plan to expand the game in the future :D
Very exciting game!
Thanks! :D
Really Cool Game, the moving was a little wonky, but the game good art!
Thank you!
nice work. I liked it quite a bit. Not the hugest roguelike person but it was fun
Glad you still enjoyed it :)
A roguelike with random generation, that follows the theme, incredibly polished enemies and enemy animation (I swear I love those animations), that is geometric, that is fun, that is just amazing overall AND made in 72 hours? You deserves 5 stars all around my friend.
Wow! Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it :D
The gameplay, the intense soundtrack, I have no idea how you managed to make something like this, and on top of that only in 3 days. that is some serious dedication!
Thank you! I did spent a lot of time on it, but I did study how to use tile-based games before the jam in preparation and practised setting it up, so I was really speedy getting the main mechanics down :P
That is very Impressive, well done!
One question, I had alot of money during my run but found no place to use them.
Is there a way to spend these coins or are they just your point system?
There's one shop in each dungeon, and you should find it if you keep exploring. I'm probably going to add more though, so it's easier to find them :)
That is so cool! I didn't know!!
now I am eagered to find them :D
Roguelite made in 72HOURS wtf thats crazy good job amazing game
Thank you! I have had quite a bit of practise at roguelites.
Fun game! Love the charming artsyle. The gameplay is pretty challenging and the music was perfect. Would recommend allowing the player's projectiles to reflect off of surfaces to add more gameplay variety, like being able to hide and shoot at the same time or being able to line up shots from odd angles while dodging incoming attacks
Thank you so much! Having bounce shots would be awesome too :)
The game design and the gameplay is really cute. I didn' t expected this much as enemy variation. The invinsible enemy bullet are really annoying but good at all. Congrats !!
Invisible enemy bullet?! Hold on. That's not meant to be a thing.
Oh sorry you said invincible. I thought you said invisible XD
Nice game! I liked the variety in enemy types, and the artstyle was generally pleasing. Having the player, the player's bullets, and the enemies be different colors would've been nice to help differentiate them, & the shooting does feel a little janky at times with the knockback, but overall, good job!
Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, in hindsight I probably should have changed the player's colour, but I was really trying to stick to the two colour style. Thanks for the feedback :)
Wow the music is intense! And then what I thought was a simple enemy turned into a cluster of enemies richocheting everywhere! Each enemy had it's own personality, and set this apart from a simple shoot to kill sort of game. I would love to see this expanded upon, great job!
Thank you so much :D I do plan to expand it in the future, like adding new maps, bosses, items, skins, shot types and more! Glad you enjoyed it.
I really liked this game! Each bullet shot an enemy hit felt good and the music was outstanding. I really enjoyed this great job!
Thank you so much!
the little triangles are very hard, they dash to you very fast. the game is good, nice job.
Yeah, stay back for those ones :D. Thank you for playing :)
Awesome! I loved the art, I haven't really seen anything else like it. It seems almost...softer. Like the shapes aren't sharp or hard. IDK, its super cool anyway.
That was the feel I was going for. With the colliders being slightly smaller than the obvious size, so it felt like you were squashing into walls instead of just running slam into them. Thank you for playing :)
I really liked this one, it’s pretty fun and juicy, not quite sure how it fits the theme though.
I did try to make it fit the theme, which I talked about in the description. But in the end I'm not sure how well I did :P Oh well.
Wow! A nice rogue-lite! If you would make these sprites a bit smaller and use multiple color palettes, this will be awesome! You could also add auto navigation to the player for the boss!
Overall, nice idea!!
Yes! That would be great...
Its an absolute banger.
it's really cool and satisfaying to play. Congrats for pulling this off !
Thank you so much :D
Really freaking good game! Made a lot of fun and the music and sounds are fire! The movement is really creative and the design is lovely. I was also able to play this on my phone. Feel free to check out my game ,,Gravity Pick" aswell, I would love to hear your feedback!
I'd love to check it out :)
