An interesting approach to a bullet-hell type of game! I like that you need to sometimes intentionally miss some hits to balance the dopamine bar.
Fantastic art and really great game play.
Awesome art! The difficulty gets pretty savage when the slot machines start coming out, but it's still really fun to play. This game inspired me to not spend money on coffee today. Nice job, really good submission, congrats!
The art on this is insanely good, congrats!
Really great arts, really fun gameplay and really hard game, well done :)
Incredible artwork, really fluent and responsive controls. I found it really interesting that some projectiles were advantageous to collide with, which made for some fun gameplay. I related to the game's theme and message a lot haha! Keep up the good work
The artwork is stunning. The gameplay is hard to wrap my mind around!
This is a really neat take on a bullet hell game! Deliberately taking hits to make sure your dopamine doesn't go down is a really interesting mechanic. The artstyle is really cool, and the gameplay provides a really good challenge!
Nice work!
Very cool artstyle and challenging gameplay! Love the analog assets but sadly I barely couldn't make it to the end :( still very fun tho, good job! :)
Beautiful work with the presentation. Kuddos on the awesome job you did integrating it into the game page as well.
This one's a banger!!! Loved the premise and execution of the concept. The music is really, really good.
I absolutely loved the graphics for this game, balancing your dopamine and your money was a sick concept and I think you executed it really well. The audio also was genuinely super cool too, the overall quality of this submission is top notch, great submission :)
Nice although somewhat unsettling graphisms. The balance mechanic is pretty cool
The graphics are amazing, really well done! I like how you have to sort of balance dopamine with your cash, you have to make sure both don’t run out, instead of just avoiding everything. Great job!
I think that was a risky idea for bullet-hell, but it was perfect for our implementation of the theme.
Thanks a lot!
Lovely game! graphics are awesome! Love the look of the game,love the audio and the feel of the game is just overall great! I love how things are always moving on the screen and the game's difficulty is great!
Glad you got your dose of dopamine from this game! And we hope you managed to beat it
The theme and graphics are great! The game is incredibly difficult though lol
Thank you!
I honestly cannot emphasize enough how cool you’ve applied the analog wildcard here, and I also really appreciate the critical thinking behind this. Nice one!
Yeah, our artist got wild on this one hahah! Thank you for your warm words!
Graphics, gameplay, event submition page, everything is realy good! Great job!
Thanks a lot!
Loved the assets and the implementation of the theme. It's actually somewhat similar to how we understood the theme (as in mocking consummerism). I tried to beat it but I wasn't able to, it's a bit too hard for me haha. I do wish the character was a little more responsive. It did a thing where it sort of slided towards whatever direction it was heading to and made it feel a bit unresponsive at times, which makes the game harder. Then again, that could be the intention.
Great job!
Glad that there are people on the same page with us! Thank you
Smooth! Love the art and the gameplay is slick! This is epic.
Just an FYI I had a controller plugged in and it did not take WASD for movement only the controller.
Oh, yeah, quess we kinda forgot about controller's inputs) Thank you!
