Fun game! The lighting & music definitely make the presentation very cinematic. I was pretty confused on why I couldn't pick up multiple bombs at once, & I had trouble finding out how to get them to the middle, but that is likely just me being bad at the game. Overall, nice work!

Beautiful atmosphere but I maybe felt it excesive dark for the gameplay. The important items or places felt to dark and it made me loss orientation and what I'm picking up or where I have to put them. Also I think that some stamina system to sprint faster or some dash options would had been perfect for this game.
Thank you for the feedback. I originally planned a dash ability but it was something I ran out of time to implement. I had sprint mechanics from the beginning but had to remove it as without stamina it was too easy.
Good point about the lighting. That can be adjusted. I added a light on the pickups to help identify them however I should have placed one on the generator as well in hindsight. I can see how it would be difficult to identify where to go.
Pretty good! I like the aesthetic, and the effects are nice! Being bombarded with bullets is pretty chaotic! It's also pretty fun, though it couldn't run at a full 30/60 fps on my laptop sadly. But still fun! I think you die too easily though... Or maybe it's just that I'm bad
Thank you for playing and your feedback. One thing I wasn't able to do in the time I had was to test on other devices that are lower end so it was hard to optimise when testing on a high-end machine. That is definitely something I will try to work on in the future.
Yes, it is a pretty challenging game. There are a few tricks that you can exploit to win fairly easily though I admit.
I think it would be better if you explained how to download the game, or made it easier to access. I would love to play it but I can't figure out what to do with the file.
