Pfiou that was hard ! maybe if at the begining there is less phantoms and their number increased over time could be really better ! But i loved the cute aesthetic and retro vibe ! (idk if that was understandable my engish is not great)

Developer

Yes, I want to do a remake on a different engine, where I will try to make the game more complete. (My English is not very good either)

In the remake I want to redraw them, you can see the first developments at the link. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/163nLJMNIqOZwTjtrY3rB3xdR9S3S7fiG?usp=dri...

Fun little game, I like how consistent the style of it is. I think the timer is a bit too long, the gameplay isn't deep enough to keep me engaged for that long. The boss is cool though.

Yes, I know. I'm thinking of doing a remake on tic-80 after the jam.

Good aesthetics and simple gameplay for fun. There is a bug in the projectiles when you change direction.

I did a gif for help other users to run the game.

Glad you liked it! It's not a mistake with projectiles, although it's a nightmare, it's still your dream and you can partially control what happens.

I don't know how to open the game. :(

*edit
Thank you for the explanation! I was able to play the game. I was quite surprised to play such a cute little game, as I was a bit scared beforehand when I saw the programming code & tools. Cute art & very simple gameplay, but it works and it was a fun little experience.

I figured it out yesterday. Download the .P8 file, Go to https://www.pico-8-edu.com and click on play. Then drag and drop the downloaded P8 into the browser window and type in run when the cartridge is loaded. The drag and drop part was missing from the download instructions.

Thank you for not giving up trying to play my game! I don't have money for a license, so I can't upload executables, which makes the launch process quite complicated. I will try to fix this in the future.
