This is a pretty cool concept. I like the idea that the player shoots from behind them, as it is not too irrational but still causes them to think a lot about how they are placing themselves in a fight. Also, the art style of this game looks really good!

I like the pixel art and colour style of the game, though I kept getting over-run by enemies appearing around me

The art and music were great, although I found the gameplay a little bit obtuse because of the screen size limitations :(

I liked the music and the art, but it was difficult to play. You couldn't see the enemies from far enough away (particularly on the side that shows the dice) and they move very quickly, sometimes seem to teleport and other times spawn on top of you... Could be great with some polish, though!

visuals were amazing, gameplay was even better. there were no dice, but I did like the randomness of how much HP you got and how many ammo you got. that was a nice touch. as soon as I got close to the enemies, I died though. even when I didn't collide with them. all in all, this was amazingly impressive. Nice job!

Awesome visuals and music, it was really enjoyable, although there were some glitches when I got close to the enemies.

Very catchy music! I would also go with the "camera could show a little more" statement from JOrbits, but a good entry for this Game Jam. Nice color palette and pixel graphics!

Cute little game that looks nice. Maybe the camera could've been zoomed out a bit more, because you can't really see what is in front of you, when going down.
