this game uses more than three buttons. i count A, D, M, Enter, and LMB for a total of at least five if i haven’t missed any. but the winning strategy is to just sit in one place and click directly above you over and over again, rendering A and D useless — a good thing, since the use of key names rather than scancodes makes this unplayable on some keyboard layouts. navigating the menus with your movement keys and the dash button would have worked just as well and stayed true to the “three buttons” limitation

Fun game ! I really enjoyed it, I scored 572 !

Pretty fun little game, really love the level of polish! Though I didn't find the time stop too useful, as it was incredibly short. Instead, while moving the screen would flash as I'm between A and D keys, which wasn't a big deal but it would have felt better without that.

Overall though, like I said the polish/game feel was really on point, nice job!

Here's what I was able to do without using the time stop:

game bugged at first and i could not die but fun either way!

Very fun game! The mechanic is satisfying, the art lovely and the music magnificent!!! Nice Job!

An interesting idea and was entertaining until I realized the unlosable strategy. A few things I might change. 

I would probably start the player in the middle if it is just a survival game. The first run I died instantly because it started quite quickly and I didnt have time to get used to controls and dodging. The second run I ran all the way to the right thinking I might have to move from room to room or something but then I hit a wall and died in the corner. Then from that point on, I realized I was meant to just stay in that room and survive. Took me a little time even then to realize I was meant to use the dash to go through/kill enemies and not just avoid them. Just a little bit of a rocky start since I made some assumptions based on other games I played.

And also the whole unlosable strategy part. I never actually used the time freeze but I realized pretty quickly that you didnt put a cooldown on the dash and you also are invincible during it even to projectiles (which is probably necessary), but that means that the player can just spam click to dash constantly on the spot and you are just never in danger from that point on. You can rack up as high of a score as you want without thinking, it could even be automated with an autoclicker, and thats it. I would consider adding either just a cooldown or a few charges and a recharge time, just something to prevent the player from spamming dash so much but also the few charges would let you chain a couple dashes together.

Besides those couple things, the game is pretty interesting, good job

Fun game, the two color palette and the swap of the color in "freeze mode" are really cool. The only thing I could tell you is to add a time for the "freeze ability" i am invincible in that way.

It's really satisfying to accumulate a bunch of enemies and then dashing into that group.

I think mechanic of dash is a bit too op. You literally can click spam dash and become invincible.

But anyway i enjoyed destroying that triangles and shurikens.

Loved the game! The minimal palette looked very nice, and I it was very fun dashing into enemies! The music sounded great too, had a nice retro feel to it. My only suggestion would be that the time freeze ability is a bit too overpowered (you can time freeze for as long as you want to plan out attacks). Maybe setting a limit for how long you can time freeze would make the game more challenging? Other than that I loved it! Very fun game, great job :D

I liked it, very fun. The color and graphics look great but I think you could have used colors with less contrast or something, the screen flashing black and white was a bit hard on the eye. Anyway, very juicy game!

I liked this game! It's really fun to smash into enemies, however I feel like you could have followed the theme a little better. You can also just keep time permanently frozen and plan out all of your dashes, so I feel like having a downside to the time freeze mechanic would be beneficial. Despite all of this, it is still REALLY FUN.

Great game! Really fun to play, freezing time feels juicy combined with the dashing. Good job :))
