This submission is extremely polished. This is a really cool take on the theme, and you executed it here very well. It feels really good to move, and there's plenty of player feedback to make killing things more impactful. The UI is also very fitting, and the pixelated graphics are charming. The overall gameplay was simple and easy to understand, and I love how you used the dialogue as a form of tutorial. You've got some really good stuff here.

The only thing I would say is that this would be so good with music, but it's a jam game so I get it. There also seems to be a bug where enemies can notice you through walls, but that's a very small thing and it doesn't take away from the core gameplay.

This is a solid game, and I think this will do really well in the jam!

wow this is SUPER polished and feels really good! fun arcade-y take on a mechanic usually seen in more horror-y games. encountered a bit of slowdown and a couple of the assets use different pixel resolutions - but overall, this is definitely something to be proud of!!

P.S. the text on your thumbnail is kind of hard to read against the background

Holy heck this game is really well polished. The sound effects are awesome and crunchy, and I love how you have to make sure your buddy has enough room to shoot at the targets. Great game!

Really interesting and fun game. Good implementation of the unique mechanic. If the characters stuck a bit more together I'm sure this could be a great bullet hell!

Fun! The performance started to chug, but I liked the idea of an auto-runner. I felt you did a good job punishing rushing-to-the-door by making everyone go hunt you if you picked up the energy battery.
