fun game :-) 

The music choice is great :-) 

it's sometimes a bit hard to read and see the powerup parasites. and the abilities should last a bit longer, rapid fire feels good :-)

Fun game. I noticed a few enemies spawned outside the zone, where they got stuck. I also wanted a bit more payoff  after killing a boss.

this is fun! I like the silliness switch and also the music. it was a little hard for me to tell which parasites I was supposed to collect based on the appearance

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I thought the particles would be indicative but I do agree that they are a little hard to see

Nice job, this was a lot of fun! One area that could be improved is the enemy pathfinding: it was relatively easy to get them stuck on obstacles

Developer(+1)

Oh yeah for sure. I wanted to use pathfinding in Godot but didn't quite get what I wanted from it, so I decided to stick with just having them get stuck for now! In any case they'll all get unstuck eventually haha

Really cool game! Once I got the hang of what to kill and what to pick up it felt pretty satisfying, especially annihilating a boss with the rapid fire buff. Points for the silly mode as well! I wasn't able to turn it off after turning it on, but I didn't mind :) Went back to play a bit more and listen to the excellent level music. Very nice!

Developer

Silly me, I forgot to mention that you can press 1 to go back to regular mode. Thank you for the feedback! Glad you had fun :)

Fun survivors game!  The challenges like dark and no bullets were a great addition.  Nice pixel art too.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I think picking up the buffing parasites weren't as explained so if you play again, consider picking up an orange or red parasite for buffs or health!
