nice game, i think one improvement could be the player animations. overall it's really good :)
Thank you. I am glad you enjoyed playing :)
had a lot of fun. issue number 1. the dialogue on the opening screen doesn't fit well. maybe that could have been a part of the loading screen. issue number2. maybe a health bar(was it there? coz i missed it if it was) and final, well, suggestion. maybe.....the sprite could be turned around. though i can see why in a mirror world, thematically, you wouldnt be able to do that. I loved the music and i loved the gameplay loop. and i loved the art.
Thank you very much for your detailed advice! I will definitely be considering it for future games :)
Had fun playing the only issue for me it wasnt hard
You must be the Bullet Hell King! Here’s your crown 👑
Really cool bullet hell game with a nice theme! The death sound effect jump scared me the first time I heard it lol. If I had any criticism I would say the gun could feel more impactful, maybe some screen shake when you shoot? Nice game!
Thanks so much for the feedback! Definitely need to dial down the death sound audio 😂😂
Great game, I love the variety of enemies
Thank you!
This is probably just a me problem, but I found it a bit irritating to switch between the mirror and the gun. I'm a big fan of bullet hells though, so this was quite enjoyable.
Thank you for the feedback! If you could elaborate a bit further that would be great so that we could improve in the future! What specifically about it felt irritating? Thanks again!
I just found trying to move my hand to hit the Q key while also paying attention to everything going on could be a little annoying at points. It's kind of a small issue, but maybe make the button to switch a bit more accessible.
Okay thanks! Will be mindful of this in future games… we need to do more play testing too to find what feels nice for the player!
I like the sprites a lot! Fun game, the death sound made me laugh every time!
He was in a lot of pain! 🤣🤣
Very cool game! Loved the SFX, they made me very confortable and was so cool to listen to!
Thanks so much for playing! We really appreciate it!
Great game, I like the enemy roster with different abilities, adds so much value. A few checkpoints along the game would have been nice. I played it twice and made it very far, but didn't want to repeat everything again so I couldn't finish it.
Yes, that's very understandable. One thing we've learnt from Spellbounce by Gongogong (another game submission to this jam) is to add level skipping so that the player can skip ahead to later levels if they die. This way, you can experience the whole game without having to spend time replaying levels, which can be a big ask for a jam game. Thanks so much for playing and the feedback 🤩🤩
Hello fellowe Bob enjoyer :) I really like your game. Death sound was a little jump scare for me, because it was soo loud :D I like the idea of switching weapons, sadly deflected bullets didn't damage the enemies. Also my own bullets damage me (no problem with that, but some kind of heal or checkpoints would be nice, because I died many times because my own bullets :D ). I really enjoyed looping music. Set your own volume would be good.
Yes, heal checkpoints / heal pickups would be a great addition. We agree with you on the deflected bullets should damage enemies, we just didn't get round to doing it 😭 Thanks so much for playing and all the great tips!
The idea of switching back and forth between the gun and the shield is really fun! I think if the enemy shots you deflect did damage back to them, it would give the opportunity to do some creative stuff with the shield.
Yes, that would definitely make things better, great thinking! Really appreciate the feedback 🤩
Nice game! I liked how you could bounce bullets off the mirrors and the enemies that come in later with their reflective shields. Great work!
Thanks for playing! We really appreciate the feedback!
Nice game, i made it to about the 8th room and died! Well done
Honestly, that's pretty impressive! There are 15 rooms overall but it still takes me a few runs until I manage to beat it all at once. Thanks so much for playing!
