Well designed. The difficulty curve scales well, and the game constantly feels tense. The shader changing with your health is also really cool

UPDATE: A new update 1.0.1 is out that should fix the resolution issue some people were experiencing, if it still doesn't work please let me know and I'll look into it

Nice improvement, thanks. It would be nice if there were a little less dead space around the playing area, but it's _way_ better. Got a 5:37 for my first clear (4.5 hearts).

Great first gamejam game. Really liked the graphics but the web version was very small so it was hard to see. Quite polished also, overall great!

The game is quite realistic, and I like it!

The gameplay in this is awesome, level based, with beautiful difficulty and some interesting mechanics that work well. I'm pretty sure I'm just about to beat it, but unfortunately if I play it one more time my eyes will go on strike. I'm guessing it's using fixed aspect ratio scaling?.. In any case, it stays quite small, even at full screen depending on your zoom levels. I'll come back and revenge it once my eyes recover from not blinking while staring at mini-sprites for ages XD.

Developer

Thank you! The game is set to integer scaling, so it will only get bigger if your screen resolution is 1280x720 or higher... I'll see if I can fix it later

This game is very cool, especially for your first game jam!

Thanks!
