The visuals are great, and the gameplay mechanics are unique. I would love to see some background music to the game though.

I really like the clean visuals and the two abilities are both really creative. I wish there was more visual feedback for taking damage and when the enemies take damage.

Really good submission.

Great basis for a game, would love some kind of upgrade system, would make replayability feel much better and could allow for stronger enemies to compensate rather than most feeling similar. Besides that very much enjoyed.

Cool weapons. Very interesting design here, I'd love to see them in a more fleshed out game.

For whats on display here, there really isnt that much i can critique. Nothing that's in the game needs improvement. My only wish is that there was more LOL.

i found the lack of any kind of progression quite disappointing. I really would've loved to play this game with a sort of upgrade system, or greater enemy variety (as i believe every enemy had the same AI?)

I wrote my code very modular and it supports having multiple different weapons just did not have time to add them. The plan was tho to let players choose a new one every round. One weapon for left click and one for right click. Maybe I'll expand it later.

Probably my favourite game in the jam, from a purely mechanical standpoint. I got a good 15 minutes out of just these two weapons!

Cool game! I really liked the minimalist graphic style, but it really lacks background music. The gameplay is quite interesting and very enjoyable, and the way you approached the theme was really well done. Good luck with your future projects!

I honestly like the simplistic art, the main gameplay feels pretty satisfying, though I feel like this game would've been super cool if you could buy some upgrades like a piercing arrow, etc. However, I think this is quite good considering you were learning the language as you made it!

Its a really good and satisfying game, very fun and easy to pick up and play. The art style is nice, maybe a little too simple in a few ways, but its nice to look at. Would love to see this concept expanded to a more complex experience!

The clean art and visuals really stood out. I liked how the time travel theme was applied to the bullets—that was a cool idea. I think some upgrades, like special or enhanced basic attacks, would make it even more fun. Really enjoyed it!
