How does your game relate to the theme?
You're tasked to finish of a boss, with the power of electricity.
Your tools: your energy flow, it's your health and it's your power.
Once you're in a perfect flow (the green area of the bottom progress bar) you can damage the boss. However, if you're overflowing or under-flowing then you can't damage the boss.
How do you control your flow you might ask? Oh it's quite simple:
Holding the shoot button will INCREASE your flow.
Dashing will LOWER your flow.
Getting hit will LOWER your flow (damage depending on the phase of the boss).
You also have a perfect flow bar (bottom right of screen) , if you manage to stay in a perfect flow for a period of time you will be prompted to press ENTER to unleash a super attack. (so even if taking damage is not that punishing, you will still be rewarded for perfect play).
Specify any and all pre-made assets in your submission.

I Really liked the graphics here, and the gameplay was pretty awesome if not a bit too hard for my liking, i just wish there was some music to break up the silence. great entry!
Great job on the game, it's really impressive for the work of just on person. I did have a few notes I wanted to share about the game through.
Glad that you like it! And yeah I completely forgot to add sound effects for the AOE attack, thanks for reminding me.
Really fun gameplay, graphics is very minimalistic but it gets the job done, I had to try hard a bit but I haven't died once!
I don't know if it's a thing already, I think it's not, but consider adding an immunity frame during the dash, I think it would the game more fun but maybe a little bit easier! Also I don't know if it's intended but I found that standing in the corners of the map as far away as possible from the boss might be the best strategy since you can keep charging your flow bar easily.
Very good game overall, challenging and fun! Good job!
Thanks for playing! Glad that you liked it.
And yes the dash doesn't have any immunity frames, I was considering it when I was trying to make more complex attacks for the boss. However, I didn't really get the time for any of them. I will keep it in mind for the future tho.
Excellent visuals, good concept and great execution; you nailed it! It's a bit short and everything outside of combat is kind of weak still, but I could see some real potential for a bigger game here.
Kept the flow bro
This game was great, both the art style and the gameplay. Just missing some music. The theme match may have been a stretch but works well enough.
Pretty simple but fun game. The art seems fitting & the theme is close enough. Also the animation in the dialog was fireee. BUT I was missing some music and I didn't really like the keybinds of shooting("Z" and "SHIFT") I think "Q" or "E" would fit more but maybe thats just me.
Thanks for playing!
I made the keybinds that work the most with arrow keys, I suppose with WASD those will be more fitting. I will keep that in mind next time.
Great gameplay i think the best of all games i have played on this jam so far. Maybe you could add some music in future versions?
Thank you I am really flattered!
I added the sound effects in the last 30 minute of the jam submission lol. Ain't now way I got time for more. The animation and coding just took all of my time.
Absolutly amazing, but misses a good soundtrack at the background
good game! it was fun and very creative
This was soooo fun to play
Almost died at the end but I clutched
0 death 😎
Hell yeah impressive, glad you liked it.
