How was your experience with Mini Jam?
This is my second Jam and I loved it! Having the theme in advance had me imagining several different games and the limitation reveal was what helped me settle on one project.

Love the retro style you have going on here and the easy to learn difficult to master vibes it has! Also great use of the limitation.
Great game! Here's a comment from one of our artists at InTheWall.
"I really really love the simplicity of the game because it's done well. I can totally imagine this game in an arcade machine with that classic three-digit highscore list after the game over. The pixels and limited color palette work well, animation is smooth, and I think the execution of the limitation is very creative. It's definitely one of those games you can keep playing for a while without realizing how much time has gone by (in my opinion at least!) Wonderful work!" - Babs (from InTheWall)
Wow! This is a really creative concept and one of the most fun games that I've played. The balancing is pretty good, and it's pretty tricky. I'm really impressed that you made the little player rotate around the circle. I also made a game in Pico8 for this jam, and I know how hard stuff like that is to code.
Love the aesthetic and feel! It's really a lot of fun once you get about halfway into level 2, but its got a really slow start. The use of limitation is implemented and executed so well, its a great idea and a great game.
Thanks! Yeah I've been mulling over a rebalance of the early levels based on the feedback.
Nice arcade style game - fits the theme and limitation well, with a solid and addictive gameplay loop to hold everything together.
Nice game :)
Cool game. As Chirpy said, a little more speed wouldn't be bad, but overall a nice and relaxed game with a great concept.
I really liked this! The game could be a bit faster in terms of the amount of enemies to shoot, other than that really nice
