Pretty cool! I liked the bullet feel and the upgrade options! The dash also feels quite nice. I think there could maybe be a bit more difficulty scaling?  Once you get healing and more ammo the game becomes pretty easy, especially since basic enemies die in one hit. Also I feel that the movement controls should be reversed, where A moves you counterclockwise and D moves you clockwise, but just a preference from other games I've seen. Otherwise, nice job! I really liked the enemy that starts in the middle and moves around randomly firing shots in all directions! Congrats on your submission!

Great concept, but what I like the most is the overall style (artwork, sounds, music) and how you executed it!

I liked this one!  I had a hard time at first understanding where my bullets were firing from and that made it a bit confusing trying to figure out how to time things.  I really liked the spinning around a pivot for the motion!  That was a really good choice.

Thanks Ishmhora, i'm glad you had fun playing it even though it was a bit hard at first.

I'm still trying to find a work around for the bullets spawning from the center, i was having issues which mad the game really uninteresting to play when using the game pad. 

I'm also working on a better spawning system for all enemies so the player knows where enemies are spawning from.

I'm working on making Tide - Breaker a full game so if you enjoyed it i'll be posting updates on my youtube channel and twitter soon.
