  • This doesn't have a lot. There's a lot of flaws that needed to be pointed out, but I don't want to be too harsh, either, because 1) I'm a nice guy. And 2) I'm not a critic. The gameplay is very simple. You just shoot enemies and slow down time, that's it. Also, pressing E to slow down time doesn't seem to do anything...? It just makes a purple flash around the player. I also want to criticize the enemy spawns. They spawn somewhat close to you instead of offscreen, and it could quite make it unfair at times. AND you can lose health really easily. There's also a lack of presentation; there's no title screen, cutscenes, game over, ending, or anything. Once you start the game, it just goes directly to the main gameplay. And loosing all of your health will just stop the game and shows the thumbnail. So, those are other things you might need to keep in mind. My overall rating for this is... ... ... I'm sorry, but I have to give it a 2/10. I wish I could rate it higher, I really do. But there's too many things that are missing here. If you would like, you can view some examples on other games or come to our Gandi IDE Discord server community and ask for help. If you feel bad for my rating, then please don't be. This isn't really a big deal. But I do want to encourage you to don't stop or give up on creativity. If you keep practicing game development over time, then you will slowly and eventually improve. - 𝓟𝓪𝓹𝓲𝓬𝓱𝓲05.

just gonna leave some feedback on the judge review: "Also, pressing E to slow down time doesn't seem to do anything...? It just makes a purple flash around the player.", yeah that's the point. it creates a ring that slows down enemies, ill make that clearer to avoid further confusion. thanks for the feedback tho!
