Wow! That was Fun! I really enjoyed how difficult it became after the 3rd bot came in. The randomness of the bots/targets bouncing around gave me so much anxiety lol! Very well done :D

Fun little high score experience that get's more challenging over time. The biggest thing this game is missing is sound design, but that could always be added in after ratings.

Perfectly showing the theme. Minimalism and highly polished at the same time.

It's a shame the audio didn't work for that extra bit of polish, but this was a lot of fun!

Fun game, definitely takes some skill to aim your bullets while avoiding the enemies.

Really enjoyed this mechanic! It was easy to pickup on and fun to dodge your own bullets. Reminds me a bit of some of the powerups in Enter the Gungeon--nice work!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I wish I could play your game, but I can't run it on my mac

Cool game! Seems well polished and execution on theconcept is also well done. I really like the combination of the enemies looking at the player and trying to get the projectile around the shield, its a good gameplay mechanic.

Very interesting mechanic, but I can't seem to damage the enemies so shooting doesn't seem that relevant in the game. That's really a shame because the mechanic is really clever and fun, but the game doesn't incentivize you to use it.

Whoops, I realize now I messed up, you have to dodge around the shields. This makes the game really fun, I just didn't get it at first :S
