Very Artistic, love the art style, the game ran a bit slow for me but I guess I need to download it.
I would just add a press "J" to skip intro or something when the intro is playing so players know it is possible to move forward :)
Overall great job :D
It lags a lot in browser but I think the average person would want it easier( so maybe it works out XD ). The lag kinda reminds me of mushihimesama as well so kinda of a win. I need a control screen for sure!
I really liked the atosphere of the game, having limited SFX gave this a really liminal feel. The art work was very well done and everything held together. On the game play, I would like a little more feedback on hitting the enemies and some of the patterns were a little random, but overall an interesting experience :)
Im glad you liked the art :> several of the patterns use rng XD I like to mix it up. The gameplay could be better for sure o.o I like interesting experiences ^_^
Took me a while with the slideshow at the start too, but i figured it out eventually.
The game was really fun, nice clean controls and some interesting patterns to dodge. I made it to the 2nd enemy in the forest before stopping, the game was really hard imo. The shooting felt a little unresponsive, but i guess the game is more about dodging anyway.
The art is amazing, love the hand-drawn look, makes me wish the game was easier so i could appreciate more of the artwork :P
it is kinda tough o.o The shooting is kinda goofy in a way. You just hold it down the whole time :p. Im glad you like the art ^_^, I was tempted to throw a cheat code in for infinite health so you could do just that XD
It took me a while to break down and check the game page where it told me I was supposed to press J to advance the intro scenes. I thought the game was broken! Once the actual game got going I figured out the rest immediately. It's very challenging and I did not complete it. The art (from what I was able to see) is outstanding and colorful even though the music makes it feel very dark. The best part is when you use the screen clear bomb and she looks so angry/determined for a frame :D
A control screen at the start is a good idea XD. I'm glad you enjoy my art ^_^ I like games that challenge me a little but I could see people bouncing off of it right away o.o I like that frame too! a strong emotion :>
