Oh my, I just LOOOOOVE the arcade vibe you've managed to give to it all!
I'll certainly give it try and provide some feedback on it. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing game!
Hi there, it is amazing to hear you'll be using it for a college project!!!
And yeah, I'm totally fine with it being inside a game's public GitHub repo, no problems at all. As long as they are part of a game and not under a "here take this assets" ad thingy, I'm alright, hahaha.
And please keep me updated on it. I love playing games made with my assets!
This is just amazing!
I love what you did with the level selector being a working version of a bunch of game machanics. Makes for a great experience and already works as some sort of unwritten tutorial for new players.
Even though game controls are simple they require some dexterity due to the cursor & peeps distance mechanic. Level design is just great and the start system + timer makes for great replayability.
The music fits great with the asthetics and gameplay. Sound effects and visual effects are great too. And I love the additions you've made to the art asset pack, they fit right in!!
Great work!
I do like the idea of remaking all my 8x8 packs into 16x16 res! I have recently worked on some personal projects exploring the 16x16 resolution and I'm really into it now.
sadly I don't think that will happen anytime soon... Since I've last made some pixel art asset packs a lot has changed: work, projects and life in general. Buuut, if I ever find the time to get back to it, I'll make sure to try remaking this one as you suggested.
Thank you!
Hi there, RSkala!
First of all, I was looking through your itch page and found Space Bits Survival and it is crazy awesome to see that this game is something you've been working on and upgrading for a while now! Space Bits Survival was crazy good already, but Generic Space Shoot is just AMAZING.
Controls are responsive and intuitive, and having gamepad support is superb. Visual effectcs are also beautiful, all those particles flying everywhere fits the astetics so gooood!
Well done!
You have no idea how much I needed to hear that today, Cole&Gram so thanks for that :_)
I've been meaning to get back at asset making but life always gets in the way these days ahahah But I'm sure I'll eventually get into calmer waters again and finally make a come back!
Again, thank you so much for the kind message. It really made my day
Hi there!!
It is just amazing to see games made with the assets I created and what you've got here is crazy awesome! Controls are responsive, gameplay is dynamic, I love the addition of a shop instead of the usual random upgrades and the visual assets were used brilliantly :)
I gotta say though, I found it real difficult, even in the starting waves hahaha I am not the best bullet hell player, but I felt the difficulty scaled too fast. Maybe tune it down a little, giving the player a bit more time to get to know each enemy type, movement and shot pattern.
Anyway, amazing creation. Keep up the good work!!
Pretty cool game!!
I just love the cute little alien ship sprite haha
Gotta say it is quite difficult, but once you get the rhythm going, you start making it further in the level! Gets pretty dynamic with the different shots being fired at you in unique ways and at the beat of the music.
really well done!
Quite a dynamic game with various enemy types to shoot at! I loved the music and graphics. The paralax background with all those colors looks amazing.
The asteroids also being able to kill enemies was a nice addition! I mean, I'm definetely not complaining about getting some powerups from some asteroid kills hahaha!
I didn't last too long though... I think I need to get better at dodging, as my AI co-pilot said.
One thing I think would be a great feature to have would be persistent powerups. I might have died before they started appearing, but it would be nice to have a tiny persistent speed boost, or firing speed persistent boost and that kind of stuff.
Anyway, amazing work! Have a good one :D
Hi hi. It is amazing to hear the assets were put to good use by amazing devs live yourself!
And hey, it seems we will be competing in LowRez Jam, because I'm also working with a friend on a game for it haha! :)
Idk if it is due to some problem on my end, but I find my self unable to load the game, gettin this static grey screen every time I try playing it.
Hey there! Thank you so much for the donation, I really apreciate it. But most importantly, thanks for leting me know about this project!!
I just wishlisted it! It is always amazing to see those sprites in use and you made such good use of them. I love how you have reworked some of them and created whole new characters!
The whole game looks really good and well made. I wish you well and all the luck with game! I'm keen on giving the game a try! :D
Helo there!
It does have Iddle animations. Iddle and attack animations have 2 frames each. The first two frames from each row in the entities files are the frames for the iddle animation, wich is basically the character going up and down.
See the left half of the fourth image from the assets page:

Hope I was able to clear things. Have a nice one!!
Thanks! That is SOOO true and that is what makes me love it, really... It is quite a challenge to ponder which details are pixel-wort and which are not, which colors go well together in such a tiny space and how to animate a single pixel to convey movement. But when you get it just right, it all feels so rewarding! :D
If it served as inspiration for what you did, the pack achieved it's goal! I'm 100% happy with it, mate. And I'm sure you'll make somethin AMAZING with it :D
I would love to see the sprites you made and the progress on your project, so I really hope you remember to hit me up when time comes, hahahah. Have a nice one!
