How does your game fit the theme?
Shooting a bullet is a mechanic which is quite linear in games, so instead we decided to alter the players expectation and do something new.

The pixel art is adorable, the mechanics are interesting and there was even a boss! Congrats on getting this done in the time frame, I now need to protec ice-cream boy!!!
Pretty original idea. Loved the gameplay and the art tool. Well done!
I loved the art and animations! They were so fluid for an 8-bit style.
Thank you!!!
It's a very interesting mechanic, quite well executed. Good job!
love the random effects that happen o:
Nice art, I had fun playing this! fits the theme well, good job!
Nice game mate. Maybe be add a few introductory levels to make people get used to the mechanics, as it is confusing in the beginning.
But over all I like the concept and the game is well executed too.
Really great 1bit pixel art! The idea of the behavior of the gun keep changing fits well with the theme of the jam. Had fun playing it. :)
Nice mechanics. For me the text was sometimes too fast, but I really like the idea of a level goal that is not just kill everyone, but with every level changes. And beautiful artstyle of course. Nice Job!
That's a really cool game! i love the art style and the sound design! the game overall is very good and polished ! Rated! Please check out my game too :D
A neat art style and nice sound design! The gameplay confused me at first (primarily figuring out what the text on firing a bullet actually indicated), but I got the hang of it after a little while of playing. The sprites all had a nice stylistic look to them, and the sound effects were nice and punchy. Nice work!
Really fun game. I love the art style and the sound design. It all fits so well together. I didn't really feel the need for a tutorial. In the beginning a lot of stuff happens indeed, but I quickly got the hang of it. The theme of the jam might have been implemented a bit more, but overall I had fun playing!
Thanks a TON!! I hope you enjoyed the game. :)) Thank you for the feedback!!
Fun game, but it does drop you in at the deep end without much explanation. A bit more of a tutorial would have been helpful.
Definitely agree with you there! Thanks for taking the time to play and give feedback I hope you enjoyed the game!!
This game makes me go YES!
Really fun game, a lot of visual feedback, but a bit hard to understand at first, a interactive tutorial would be nice
Thank you for playing!! I agree, definitely won't skip out on a tutorial next time, it is really easy to get trapped in the mindset of just adding new things really quickly. Thank you for commenting!
Awesome graphics, so cute! I think the random effects on-hit are a nice touch, but didn't make me feel "out of control" since I could still aim & shoot pretty reliably. Maybe some effects could be added to on-shoot as well, to push the idea further?
Thanks for the feedback I hope you enjoyed our game. I definitely agree the idea could have been pushed a little further though! :))
Nice graphics. I included it in my GMTK Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
Thanks for including it!! Will go leave a like :) Hope you enjoyed our game!
Great game ! There are some little flaws here and there (ennemies spawning in front of you without a warning in the final boss, gun being dragged behind is unpractical at times…) but it’s a solid whole, and I had fun playing it. Good job !
Thank you for taking the time to play our submission, and comment! We really appreciate the feedback :))
The WarioWare type missions were very annoying. The rest of the game is fantastic though, with great controls and an interesting mechanic
Thank you for playing and giving feedback!! I hope you enjoyed our submission :0
