Interesting mechanic !

Interesting and fun concept but I think it needs something else in the scene to create variation. Otherwise a nice look and feel.

Great game and concept, I really had fun, it is very fun to control the bodies and finish quickly with the enemies, good game :D

Nice way to add a top down shooter to a joined together theme, cool

I loved it, super fun to play and picking it up was easy. Would have loved to play more levels.

Movement was floaty and seemed overridden by the mouse, I loved the concept and mindhack function. 

How did you achieve the connection It looked wavy and not your usual straight line? it was my fave part.

It’s just a sin wave. Actually looked pretty good even tho simple.

Thanks for sharing 😀

Lot of fun! Could have maybe used a weapon cooldown to prevent spam but it worked.

Movement could be a bit tighter, but its still very fun (and chaotic)! :)

Enjoyable action game. Felt a bit floaty with the movement. Very hectic. In all the action it was difficult to tell a corpse from a live enemy.

Developer

very true. May have to add that to a post jam version if my attention span isn’t too bad :)

Nice funky song! I absolutely love this game! I like the concept of using your enemies against you.

Here are some thoughts I had about the game (it's just little things):

  • I wish the movement was a bit more rigid. It feels like you are sliding across the floor.
  • I wish there was a wall or something that you can use to hide.
  • I wish the bullets were a bit bigger so you could see it better.

Overall, I really enjoyed this game! A lot of games went with the puzzle aspect, so this game was a change of pace for me!

Yes walls were something I was considering but I wasn't confident I'd have enough time to make them work well in the time I had. Really good feedback and thanks a lot :)

Really like the fast paste aspect of the game!

This game stands out from the crowd, it is not a puzzle and it is fast

Submitted

Definitely was a healthy break to enjoy shooting things instead of connection puzzles

Fast and entertaining! But I would love some clearer indicators on who's dead, who's alive and who is a puppet :)

Developer

Good point. Perhaps some arrows above their heads would have helped :)

Really cool puppetting mechanic
