Lovely artsrtyle! Game is a bit short, actually... let's speedrun it!
The artstyle is very cute! It gives me nostalgia for some cartoons. Character and monster designs are also really nice. I did have some difficulties with the screen size. I think my monitor isn't high enough and I couldn't resize the game window itself. I don't know if there was UI at the bottom telling me how far I was with defeating enemies or having points ^^' Another thing I noticed was that I could cheat by waiting and just shooting up because enemies would collect at the wall and come down.
All in all, I think this is a very cute game that can have a lot of potential ^^ Good job!!
Art is good, gameplay is fine, the sound for hitting an enemy sounds a bit delayed though, and I found the camera zooming out to be a bit jarring. While the game is easy enough, (Maybe too easy, but you could just have a longer cooldown so you can't just spam your attack) I did have difficulty completing it since the bat/demon enemy kept flying offscreen so I couldn't hit it.
Thanks for the feedback! Will definitely keep these in mind for our next game jam! It was our first time making a full game, so there's definitely a whole lot of room for improvement. Thank you so much for playing!
Interesting game, I like its visual style!
Thank you so much! It means a lot coming from you, I adored the visuals of your game too!
Good looking art, the gameplay is a bit weird, but still good job !!
Thank you! We had a little trouble getting the programming to work in a way that we wanted it to, and will work on improving for next time!
