Nice, I really enjoy the facing right and life sprites. Something about the perspective really works for me. The only feedback I have would be to pull the camera out a bit. Once you're on a spring pad, you completely lose sight of where you are. Great job!

Developer

Yeah, I saw that problem but couldn't think of a solution. That is a great idea though, I will definitely add that

FUN! Incredible what you did in so little time! Colliders are on point, it's perfect the way the bad guys jump on the robot! Way to go, mate! I liked how responsive the sound was, although the blips become a little tiresome after a while. Very satisfying to catch a wave, I mean, the blue area that boosts you up? The turning animation was cool too, the robot's expression is altogether insane! I didn't care too much about the shooting part... Make it a vertical escape game in which catching the wave is primary goal, then it would maximize what I loved most about it!

Thanks for sharing., and please do continue making games (you mentioned in the page this is your first)!!

Developer

Thank you a lot! I didn't think about the lore that much but I like the Idea. Might release a new version about that!

Took a while to get the hang of it, but was fun!

Thank you!

Pretty neat game! One thing that was slightly annoying was the low amount of bullets. But otherwise it's a good game.

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Nice work! 

Didn't understand that I could also shoot as it wasn't mentioned in the control-scheme, and I did not get what the gameplay loop was - but after I discovered this it was a lot more entertaining.

Keep it up!

Developer

Thank you! Sorry for not being clear enough in the description. Writing is not really my thing I guess :)

Fun stuff! Bounce pads make every game better! I wish I had more ammo, other than that it was a great first game! Keep on developing!

Very fun game!
I didn't expect the big guy to spawn (since i though you only added slime to spawn) so i got scared when i saw him for the first time lmao

Developer(+1)

Yeah! I was thinking of adding a surprise enemy to scare the players from fighting the cute little slimes..

Submitted(+1)

Well done, I would probably zoom out the camera a little bit, maybe add another type of enemy besides the slimes and the big guy. Ammo also runs out really fasts, and most of the time I was just running around trying to get more. Maybe add another weapon with different ammo or make enemies randomly drop some.

Developer

That is a good idea! I could add that after the jam maybe. You are the perfect play-tester. Thanks for your feedback!

Well done man! Very fun game! (:

Developer

Thank you!

Nice game, I got 290pts
I think it would have been better to have more ammo or a shorter spawn time because if you run out at the moment the big guy arrive you can't do anything.  
The other ennemies are doing little to no damage but there are cute jumping around ^^

Developer

That is why you have to save your ammo and try to survive the slimes until the big guy arrives. 

Also it gets super hard when you have to deal with all the tiny slimes when you have to save your ammo for the big guy. You'll understand what I mean if you get to wave 10 or something

It's very funny when the enemies block me from taking the bullet, haha!

Developer

Thank you. Hope you had a lot of fun

Developer

thank you

good job with the animation and AI!

Developer

Thank you! Do you have any tips of improvement?

Submitted

I think showing how many bullets you have is a must. Then I would also make some effect to show when you ve been hit, and maybe less enemies at the beggining, but that's just my opinion :)

Good for a beginner 

Developer

Thank you! Do you have any tips of improvement?
