Cool lil game! Definitely found it pretty tough, wished my dude could move a lil faster, but the challenge was pretty solid!

Developer

thanks for playing and for the feedback :)

Amazing game! The graphics and sound effects are nice, the mechanic is well thought, the diffculty curve is well tuned : I loved it! I could really see this as a full game with randomly generated levels! The fact that bullets bounce on other bullets is great too!
The only complaint i have is that the ricochets are a bit too random. It feels weird, it's like bouncing a rugby ball... : /

Anyway, good job!

thanks for taking the time to play and give me feedback 😎 

Procedural levels would be pretty sweet, I might will definitely add that in future iterations.

For the bullet ricochets, I can try adding some more values for things like "chance that this bullet will ricochet normally", and play around with the bounce angles. I'll make sure to do some user testing on that. Thanks for the input!

Great game!
Little thing, sometimes player's  bullet bounce the wall strangely. Is that a mechanic or a bug?

Developer(+1)

hey thanks! Yep that is, in fact, a mechanic. I've received this question before, which tells me that I didn't do a good enough job telling that to the player. Thanks for the comment :)

Geometry based art is so overused, but you made a good one actually :) not sure if the game is supposed to be as hard as it is, but in general, if you nerf down the difficulty curve a little, the whole game experience will be on point. I still liked it, though!

thanks for playing and for the feedback! I intended for the game to be challenging, but you make a good point about being more mindful of difficulty preferences. Next time maybe I can add some difficulty modes or a better difficulty curve to ease players into the more challenging levels.

Very solid game! visuals and controls are nice, and the difficulty curve was well tuned.

later levels got a bit problematic as the movement speed felt slow, and the bullets bouncing on other bullets made the it a bit hard to kill squares, but that added to the theme.

good job!

Developer

Thanks for playing + feedback :) I will keep the movement speed in mind during future iterations and play testing.
