The game have an interesting concept but I feel like the players doesn't have much control on the Overload meter. I think more ways to reduce the meter would be nice, even the current only way to reduce it by shooting down enemies doesn't reduce it by that much.
Interesting concept. Good graphic. The bullets' sound went too loud or too low at times.
Fun shmup. It's also an interesting idea to replace player's health with an overload mechanic. You might get stronger if you get hit often but it's a double-edged sword since you could also hit the UFO more often. I do encounter one problem with the UFO's bounce pattern where it would be stuck between two enemy ships. The chances are pretty slim though so I don't know whether I was very lucky or unlucky.
Nice and simple game. Gameplay feels a bit repetitive though, also when there are many enemies I can no longer hear the sound of my ship fire. Also, I wish the UFO could do more than just bounce around
Bullet hell is one of my favorite genres. Really liked the overload mechanic, makes you feel so powerful
Satisfying sound effects and nice soundtrack! And the gameplay is fun with the overloaded mechanic is executed nicely! Well done.
Thank you very much!
Nice work on the jam game.
I seemed to get hit a lot and not know what hit me... not sure if the hit boxes are really big or if I was missing something.
Also I would like to see the enemies chase the UFO instead of me, that would make it more difficult to protect.
Overall great work and I liked how when you got overloaded you would potentially hurt the UFO, liked how you brought in the theme.
Yea I was planning on making the bigger attacks explosive. Ran out of time to add the animation. Thank you for playing!
