Nice work on this submission, I managed to survive for just under 3 minutes! The movement felt good and snappy! I would say adding some variability and juice to the game would make it that much better. I also agree that some of the enemies seem overpowered so maybe dialing them back a little bit would be good. Overall, love the concept and nice job making an enjoyable game for the jam :)
Nice shooter! I liked the music very much. The progression system feels nice, although I'm not sure how much the enemies get stronger. I was taken aback by how much damage they deal! I felt confident with 70HP, haven't being hit once, then I died very quickly when assaulted by a few big zombies.
I survived for 03:29. I even saw and defeated a boss, which felt great! The game can get a bit repetitive though, as it is not much challenging for a long period, and suddenly it becomes intense in a few seconds and kill the player instantly. I don't know if this is so much a balance issue, maybe it's also that the mechanics is mostly "shoot, run, and wait until the next upgrade"? Maybe more challenging enemies right at the beginning, that demand to react quickly, could break this routine.
Still, I had fun playing it and reaching the score I did. Good job!
Overall a really nice game! The music was pleasant and really fit together nicely with the graphic style. Potentially a few things to look at: You can currently run faster diagonally, shooting requires you to tilt your body slightly, and the damage seems to tick up quite quickly as well.
VERY solid game! I kinda got into this state of playing where everything else around me kinda slowed down. I had so much fun! The movement is quick and snappy and also the SFX is nice too! Amazing entry ^^
Fun shooter! I like the way the upgrade systems work, always making you make a decision of the value of each upgrade. The Increase luck upgrade I think shouldn't have the distinction of first roll/rerolls because it makes either always rerolling or never rerolling optimal.
I got up to 3:55 in the game and was enjoying it the whole time.
Great game! Movement and shooting are very fluid and enjoyable!
