- This took a bit to get used to, a little tutorial or explaining can go a long way! Don't worry about adding something people can skip if they like. The graphics are super cute, I like the vibe and style. The interactions were a little lacking, blipping out is a good start but adding a small animation or sparkle showing the interaction of taking damage would be a good addition. The upgrades were vast and there were so many choice, which is very good for the limited time granted. After getting the hang of the movement that took awhile between each upgrade but was still very fun feeling. A very good balance. This is a very good base to build something more off of or even just using for practice. Next would be even adding free sounds can add a lot of impact, the thunk of the arrow being launched to pits of the arrow hitting enemies can bring your eyes back and to locations. Lofi offers a lot of free music or just make your own! Recording the flick of a rubber bands is an amazing sound for bows. There are lots of ways to add tiny things that add a big impact! Other then that, keep making games, this was really fun to play and I am happy to share this with others!

Yes
Summarise your game!
Mechanics: You kill monsters by directing an arrow with your mouse
Story: A blind guy picks you (Solaris the legendary bow) up and fires in random directions because he cant see. You as the bow will guide the arrows to securely get out of the dungeon. (Story is just a sketch at this point and nothing is implemented at this point.)
Controls: Guide the arrow with your mouse. To discard the current arrow you can press space to start the timer for the next arrow.
Please explain how your game fits the theme:
You are the weapon:
You are the bow that is guiding the arrows. The user of the bow is just firing the arrows in random directions

The controls were a bit rough for me at the start, a small explanation would have gone miles.
After a bit I got it though and it was fun! I especially after some rotation speed when things got a bit more controllable I actually quite enjoyed it!
Love the powerups! rotation speed and arrow damage saved my life, specially in the higher levels xD
