A cool top down shooter! Though there is room for improvement:
Overall, the game is decent, and I suggest you take the suggestions of other people into consideration.
It’s a decent bullet-hell shooter, moving around and shooting shockwaves at the guns feel alright but it doesn’t have much mechanics or things to do in the game to keep the player engaged. It needs to have more indicators and player feedback to let the player know when he gets hurt, or damaged an enemy, etc. There needs to be a health indicator, even just a number on the screen somewhere would suffice. The enemy bullets also phase through walls, which I think should not. Sometimes, the enemy bullets would stop in mid-air. The levels are all kind of the same and needs more variety. All in all, I did enjoy dodging the bullets and managed to complete 3 levels. Good effort!
Thanks alot!
I should have added more in the "It's the little things that count" department (health bar, damage indicators, animations when destroyed).
I'm gonna keep these things in mind for my next game.
Thanks for the feedback!!!
I got stuck on the first level, I killed all the guns and collected the boots but the portal didn't appear. The controls felt nice but some feedback on the enemies getting hit / a visible health bar would go a long way for making the game feel more polished. Congrats on your first game jam, keep it up!
Hey, the portal is always on the map, you just have to find it after you get the body pieces. Yeah, I was going to add a health bar but I ran out of time to submit it. Thanks for the feedback!!!
