Had much fun with this one! There are some weapons like the pistol which I feel are like kind of weak, but overall I like the concept and presentation! I was a bit confused at first with how the ghost mechanic worked, but I eventually got the hang of it

Developer

thanks a lot for playing! yeah I need to fine tune the weapons / damage dealt and I was thinking of letting the player choose the weapon order before starting a level :)

Game fits the theme so well! I really love the main menu and the juice of the knife is just on-spot. Tuff game overall >>

Brilliant idea! So much fun to play, and it feels really polished. I could easily see this as a successful Steam game, with lots of tricky puzzle levels, secondary objectives, an expanded arsenal, and even bosses. I gave this 5/5 for both Creativity and Enjoyment!

Nice game, but the random weapons are a bit annoying

Developer

thanks for playing! and to fix this I am thinking of letting the player choose the weapon order before starting level :)

That would be nice

Neat idea, really loved sound design. Mostly killed to the beat and the feeling of it is awesome!

I really like this take on the theme and it reminds me of some clone army game I used to play on my phone! I only wish I could restart a particular loop or that there was less randomization to each level as it gets really hard to get past a level when you are stuck due to both those aspects.

Developer

thanks for playing! yeah I was thinking of letting the player choose the weapon order before starting a level to reduce the randomness :)

fun game, shooting my past self was satisfying

Fun game easy to understand and pick up. No need for instructions or anything. I would suggest having a set weapon order. Some of the weapons are quite a bit weaker than others so it sometimes feels like you just lose due to RNG (maybe make all weapons 1 hit kill?). It was also not completely clear to me if enemies from the past could hurt me, and when my past self would become active. Overal a great game.

I like that idea a lot! It's a smart way to give the player control over how they want to play the game
