Maybe it's just me being trash, but i can't eve pass the first level. XD
Btw, aiming with the gun (especially while moving) it's really hard
+1 Point for reminding me of the cmd's (Command Prompt) games

- needs some sound
- would probably play better if you could just shoot by pressing the arrow keys
- having the gun info in the upper corner, with the speed of the gameplay doesn’t play well… as you need to be very focused on the gameplay… but also need to read the details on the gun info… putting it as a hud right over your player would work much better
- the proc gen levels mostly worked… had a few were there was basically no level.
- the concept looks like something that could be interesting with some polish/etc.
- I would like to see the gameplay slowed down a touch… taping a WASD key would often move me 2-3 ‘character’ lengths… making fine movement almost impossible.

Wowie - Buzz GroveSimple and fast-paced, the controls were intuitive though I do believe that a little indication for what direction you are shooting might be a little more helpful and the fact that our end goal is the green box since I spent too much time collecting the others. The controls feel like they are on ice but that does add to the strength of the game. Overall, you can definitely gain a lot by using a little player feedback, stuff like screen shakes, frame-freezes, etc.
Nonetheless, considering it’s a jam game, it’s a pretty solid entry and it fits the theme well. Good Job and Keep up the good work.

Glitch In - Wowie Jam 2Very simple and fast paced. I find it easier to just avoid enemies than shooting. That's sad you had no time to add sounds :( I like that it's very clear what square is what.

Square RabbitIs it randomly generated? Love it! very simple concept, feels like speed running

The Glitcher - the wild bug huntI didn't understand anything really. Would be cool if you made the game simpler and not having to change guns and enemies having numbers on them and i shoot them and sometimes they die sometimes they dont

Sludge SpyI had a hard time distinguishing between the next level and new gun squares, but that's probably just because my color vision sucks lol. Still a fun and simplistic game.

Buggo's HouseholdActually, I just looked at the code and I noticed that my game first checks if a tile contains a gun before checking if it is the end when drawing and as I know I don't check if the tile is the end when placing the gun's in the map it may just be that you had a few times that the end tile was drawn with yellow rather than green.
Anyway, I'm happy that you enjoyed it :)
with "the numbers" I'm guessing you mean those at the left corner? They are the stats of the current selected gun. So, how much damage they do and how often they can shoot. The letters underneath "Patterns" mean the patterns that your bullets follow. Every line is 1 pattern, and every letter inside a pattern stands for 1 direction the bullet goes into.
So, the pattern FR means that the bullet goes forward and then right. While BL means backwards and left.
Anyway, nice to hear that you liked it :)
Love the complexity (still got 5 stars on simplicity because of the visuals :D). Nice work! A little tutorial or more text would help. The random map algorithm is dope aswell ;)

Unfinished GameNice game, so fast and smooth, No loading, Instant, It needs some sound tho :)

Cyber Bug WarsWell, if you want to know how I did it, here is the file that generates the grid https://github.com/lenscas/glitch_dungeon/blob/master/src/grid/grid.rs (Warning, not nice code)
I also made https://github.com/lenscas/arena_keeper_quick/blob/master/src/structs/grid/field... which uses a module to generate a noise map and turns those values into various tiles.
