The hexagons are an interesting way of breaking up the background and it is very fun to gather lots of ammo and charge the enemy an shoot them. Great game best of luck.

I liked this, the learning curve was ridiculously steep. I went two rounds not even know what was happening then every round after that I won.
I would like to see the AI do a few things like also having limited ammo maybe we race for the fuel? things to shoot each other before fighting.
I would also like to see him dodge my bullets some times.
Really nice entry!

FortnightPretty fun game overall, I think automatically pausing between rounds and allowing the player to hit a button to continue would be a nice addition. Other than that great job completing and submitting this game.

Cyber BlastControls were a little wonky and I got instakilled a lot. Otherwise, a solid entry.

Return of the CakeHey Scalphie thanks for reviewing! I know the issues. Some of the decisions I made (starting close, shooting with inertia, etc.) were taken to balance the game, or it would be too easy to win. The enemy is obviously too dumb so he needs some advantages. It’s easy to escape from the instakill at start, you just need to move away. Besides, the enemy always starts in the same position so it’s totally predictable.
You can shoot directly just going away and coming back directly towards the enemy (which is very satisfactory) or… passing by him, or… getting a lot of ammo and just spinning the ship to create a bullet hell.
And you’re right, my ultimate goal it to move this to multiplayer
A fun game. Love the style. Sometimes getting instakilled can be an issue, but we just need to get good I suppose. Great job.

Cookies: Happily Baked AdventureOverall a pretty fun game! Its fun to play and the music works well with it.
I feel like there's not enough grace time before damage can start. You can learn how to avoid it pretty easily but can be weird to people playing for the first time. Ways to fix would be to either spawn the player and the enemy on opposite sides of the field or just have 3 seconds where nobody can die.
The shooting happening based on movement and not ship direction doesn't feel that great. Its hard to gauge where your bullet will go if you're trying to move around quickly and its not very realistic since typically cannons will fire from one direction on the ship.
I found a slight bug if you survive for long enough in a round. The camera zooming in makes the movement center go off your ship which ends up making it hard to go the direction you actually want to go in.

Pachinko BakeryI didn't really have any big difficulties with the enemy spawning too close. I won on my third game, which seems appropriate for a jam game, I think the difficulty is just right and it really feels like I learned to play the game. I did have a bit of difficulty grasping the way the shooting works. Does it shoot in the direction you are currently moving? If so that's an interesting departure from more typical mechanics where you shoot where the front of your ship is pointing.

Tiny Wizard Bakes a CakeThat's what I thought was happening, it's a bit weird and tricky, but makes for a rewarding experience. You could have explained it up front I think, because it doesn't feel very intuitive with the way the camera works. I think that's fine, but a fair warning would remove some of the disorientation.
So game is cool but it’s too hard to start playing, anyway that looks pretty cool for 1 day game!

The Pro ChefInteresting take on the limitation! I didn't do so well starting out, but that's okay. I think the player and enemy spawn a little too close together. I had a good laugh at my own skill when I went from getting "You Rule!" to "You Suck!" comments. Good work!

Bake My DayI Couldn’t beat it it once. I was always insta killed :(. There was once was when I ended 4-4, close call.
Congrats, keep up the good work!

Foot CuisineFun game! I do agree with the others, though, the enemy spawns a little too close! Looks great, though, the concept is cool and the use of the limitation was on the ball.
Great job on a successful submission :)

Loaf SaverAs TurtleGamer1 noted, the enemy spawns way too close to you, it gave me a jump scare when I started the game ;-;
However, after the initial shock, it was fun! I like the background art and the general concept.
Not bad!

NovakovskyEnjoyed playing the game. Considering it was made in a day, the art was descent.

Baking MadnessEven though it's not baking related, I really enjoyed this one from a gameplay perspective. I did have to read the description to learn how to shoot and the CPU kills itself pretty quickly. With better AI, it would be more fun!
