Game Title/URL: Silent Wings 2491 https://tmseldon.itch.io/silentwings-2491

Pitch/Information: Silent Wings 2491 is a lite scrolling shoot'em up with some roguelike elements. However, you CANNOT shoot in this game.

I'd like feedback on:

-Does the game feels fun?

-What do you think about the game concept? Do you think there is something here to pursue?

-How does the gameplay feels? (in particular about the available evasion moves)

Hi 😃

-Does the game feels fun?

Yes it's fun!

-What do you think about the game concept? Do you think there is something here to pursue?

I like it, I didn't make it to far - but I think there is definitely enough to expand on.

I don't know if the "no shooting" will carry it all, because I think the fun in roguelike comes from all the different item combinations you can get. But maybe you are more creative then I am 😁

-How does the gameplay feels? (in particular about the available evasion moves)

The evasion moves feel more dangerous than trying to evade the bullets normally, being looked in place and the amount of time they take - I think.
Maybe you can give a bit more health at the start - it's really hard at the beginning.
Maybe the spaces between de bullets can be a bit wider at the start to?
The borders, where the plain cant go more left ore right, could be more visually clear

Cool game congrats!

Hi! thank you for playing and the feedback! The most important thing for me it is the fact that the game feels fun. So, I'm happy that it is the case. I will take your feedback into consideration, I think I still need to balance some aspects of the game as you have stated.

Thanks again for your time!
