Loved the game, musics are great, gameplay is very fun too! It took me like 7 or 8 deaths to get to the end of the game but I wouldn’t say the game is hard. Well done!

Did you work in a team?
I was alone, still fun tho
Was the resolution a challenge?
Not really, besides not being able to explain things in text. Drawing pixel art for such a low resolution was a fun challenge
What did you learn?
This is the first time I enter a jam that is longer than 2 days. I had a lot of time to learn new stuff instead of trying to apply what I already know as fast as possible. Also as it turns out non-spaghetti code makes everything else 10 times easier :]

This was very very intense for me. The gameplay was... pretty good. I feel like the music made me anxious as hell, but that's probably the intention. Great job with this. Graphics were pretty good. The music might've been a little too repetitive, but that probably added to the anxiety, so... IDK if i have any useful feedback.
The green guys. Way easier if you just stand up and run back and forth until they shoot, and then you take your shot and then start moving again. Was that the intention?
Gotta say pretty well made, nice and original mechanic also death screen looks like amogus lol
Good and pretty hard shooter! I loved the music. I think that you should have added saving.
Wow, very cool game! I like the tension and pressure when you trying to aim and not to be caught. Music adds the atmosphere too! Thank you for the game)
Congratulations on making this game ! I've played your game during a live that you can watch here :
The live is timestamped so you can go directly to your game.I hope the feedback and live reactions will be useful. Keep it up !
Great work altogether! I think adjusting the difficulty so the AI aiming is a bit less punishing would really let the core mechanic shine by giving the player fulfilment in the power fantasy. I thought the sound and music complemented the gameplay nicely, and the duotone sprites gave the graphics a unique look!
I really love the music! Graphics are nice too! I like how you communicated information to the player.
Really good use of a limited screen area for this type of game. Happy you included the "tip" on the page as I didn't work out what was going on until I read "Enemies will aim down the last position they saw you" - then I could see the lines being projected and it made sense. I felt like such a dummy.
Great entry!
Awesome game! Hiding the cover and shuffling around feels very good, not to mention the polish and attention to detail. The artstyle and sound design are pretty good too. Great job!
It was a great game! I loved the mechanics. My only complaint that the nightclub level was too hard.
That last boss was super hard :D fun original game! You called it a demo and I agree this would make a great full game! :)
All around an awesome game! Well executed with a simple but challenging mechanic. I tore through the levels
Amazing game, all fives! I couldn’t tear myself away until the very end, the atmosphere made me forget about the low resolution. Very well done!
