Well done! you made it into my top 10 favourite games and you earned a spot into my Youtube video Review of the jam! Be sure to check it out ;)
I'll check it out for sure. Thanks :)
I like the powers you get while on low health! They all favor close range and risky play, which I think is great! They also look and sound good. I think they could use a bit of balancing because the game can be pretty easy with all of them at times. Good job!
Visuals are really great, game can be a bit easy but I think overall it's a tried and true fun kinda game!
Nice :D SOlid submission to the jam. All the glowing textures really add to the game feel
Nice game, really liked how the enemies get pushed back when you shoot them, makes it feel like my shots are actually hurting them.
The simple visuals are really good, it's very clear and is easy to read which is great for this genre of game. I initially thought the auto-fire was a bit annoying but when I say how many weapons were firing at low health, I'm glad it was auto-fire.
I think the game was a bit easy, it might've been a bit better to have less levels but more dramatic shifts in the number of enemies just to flow a bit better.
It'd be cool to see more enemy types, like a healer one which fires slow healing projectiles for other enemies but you can intercept them too. Or a quick to implement large cannon one.
Amazing job overall, the background and music were great too set a good atmosphere
Those are some good ideas. I'm currently working on an update to tweak the difficulty curve and add some more enemy types that should be ready to go for after the jam. Feedback like this is very useful, thank you :)
No problem
All I can say is wow!
My first thoughts were: "ok this is impressive but don't know how it relates to the theme. What if I let myself get hurt intentionally?"
and then I was blown away.
Really great job!

Really great job!
I love how much game juice there is
Great concept and overall!
My minor subjective thoughts, so don't take it too seriously:
- the char. movement is too fast
- easy to circling
- the death sound is a little bit harsh
- neon style is great
- the stagger visual was clever
- good music
I've enjoyed, nice job!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the feedback. I'll probably work on it a bit more after the jam and hopefully fix some of the problems you had.
What a great looking game, very stylised yet simplistic. I liked the idea, and the game and effects are well polished, although I would have liked to see more enemy types and content, maybe minibosses? For the limited time given, this is a great game.
Thanks for the feedback. I'm planning to work on it a bit more after the jam and add more enemies, possibly bosses too, but I'm glad you liked what you play :)
nice idea about the failure is progress. particle looked awesome.
Fun game.
Very fun game, smooth movement and great visuals.
Excellent job, this plays and feels great. Good choice of sound effects and a well designed idea. Major props friend thanks for sharing :)
I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH! It's so polished! The movement feels nice, the visuals are great, the gameplay gets your adrenaline going, and shredding through the enemies is so fun! My only complaint is that there isn't enough! This game is unbelievably fun, please make this into an actual game :O
Thank you! It was a ton of fun to work on and I'd love to continue adding to it if I can fit it in with my other projects.
That was a fun experience :D I love the risk reward mechanic my only complaint is the player feels a bit floaty to my liking but that is just nitpicking :) Other than that it was simple yet fun game great job :D
The visuals are amazing, and the sounds fits nicely. I like the particles effects and the light. Shooting and aiming feels so good. This was fun, well done!
Thank You!
Amazing top down shooter, I'd give the player more control over powerups but still amazing game!
I'd appreciate if you played my game!
