Impressive that this was done in 3 days! The art and music are the strong points of the game. A lot polish. Great job! :D

Art style and sound is great. I don't really care for all the different buttons I need to click.

nice level designs and art.  sfx suited the environment perfectly. 

I believe the control scheme could have been better.

I was having a really difficult time until I realized i could shoot...
Great game, the polish is perfect, the music is fitting and sound effects are great, I didn't like that the theme was used just as a timer, maybe with more heat you should have become weaker in order to both better use the theme and encourage speedrunning. I died at the last boss about 6 times, but not because i am bad, but because i didn't realize it was a boss and tried to just leave the area. maybe you should have added a boss health bar. However, this is a 3-day jam and with that amount of polish, i doubt you had any time for anything else xD. Solid entry, amazing game! (also here is a quick tip for your next platformers, set a material to the player and set its friction to zero, it will prevent the getting stuck in a wall while pressing AD problem)

Thanks a lot for the feedback! If the temperature gets above 99°C, the player will start to burn, and eventually will overheat and die, so I did sort of implement the theme in another way (but not really). I did plan on having a wall of flames chase you once the temperature reached a certain number, but I just didn't have time... I also probably should have made it more obvious when you're fighting the boss... But again, thanks so much for the feedback, and also, thanks very much for the tip! I'll definitely use it in future games. :)

Really good graphics and sfx which makes the game look well-polished.  The music can sound repetetive at times and the characters get stuck in walls (the q-r is a well-intentioned band-aid solution, although i think it has the potential to be its own unique movement mechanic). Overall, great submission!

great game and nice graphics, but the wall clipping glitch is game breaking (Also, the Hakai have a bit too much health for my taste.)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your feedback! I know about the wall-clipping glitch, but I didn't really have much time left to fix it properly, so I made a workaround - if you press Q and R at the same time, your position will reset and you'll be unclipped from the wall :)

nice game plz rate my game too

Very fun game! I thought that the boss fight was almost impossible, then i discovered that you could shoot upwards lmao.
Felt very challenging and very rewarding to beat the game ( without baby mode )

Submitted(+1)

Really nice visuals! My main issue is that you dont have settings to turn the music on and off although overall pretty good game

feels incredible polished! cute artstyle!

An addictive and difficult game if you don't put on Baby Mode. Keep it up!

Developer

Thanks! :)

I really like the artstyle and the uniqueness! I did find it to be a little difficult (even on baby mode). But overall it was very good.

Prety good, but it is too hard! I think you should add tutorial and change game controll. Good job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! If you want, you can press the L key on the title screen to make the game easier :)

Really cool concept!

The art fits with the world and the level design is well done also.

Overall cool game.

cute little guys, actually thought of enter the gungeon bullets from your character designs

I tried this again, still can’t beat it, but love the unapologetic NES hard vibe
