Enjoyable take on the theme, and I loved the Geometry Wars style neon aesthetic. I did find that things seemed to go to hell pretty fast, especially as bullets that didn't kill enemies just bounced off them, so was often praying for gravity reversals to help clear the screen of my own chaos. Would be nice if you had lives or dying was more of an event, but otherwise good stuff.
This is a great game. Really cool implementation of kinda a main and alt fire mode, but with trade-offs for each. I would love to see other shooting mechanics paired up like this!
It seemed like the bullets exploded whenever you switched sides, and I think it would be more fun to leave them in as another layer of decision making the player must face, but maybe you tried that and intentionally changed.
Solid game!
an explosion clears danger in a certain radius upon switching sides.
Before doing this, swapping sides ended up in lots of frustrating unavoidable deaths.
Top marks for me! I love the concept and the visuals work really well. The simple mechanic of bullets bounce back works so well and really fits the theme. My favorite so far, great job!
Hey, very well done, the idea of a uncontrolled gun is not new, but your own bullets hurting you, and being able to shot then is! Congrats
One of my favorite ones so far :)
Neat
Well executed, yet simple. Nice!
Pretty solid presentation with simple but original ideas, good job !
Pretty polished game, good job! :D
