Cool! Simple yet interesting game. Pretty cool how I would get doomed by consequences. Great job!

Very cool concept! And it got challenging quickly in an interesting way. I love the tension of risk and reward knowing that every shot I take may come back to haunt me. One recommendation I have would be to force a nearby key spawn (ideally within the camera field of view) on the first loop, since it took a while on the first iteration to find the key and door, and it's on the second loop that things get exciting.

Oh wow we thought of something similar but decided not to go with it out of fear of the implementation details, so it's interesting to see people doing it! I found myself showered in bullets and went out in an amazing blaze of epicness

If I had to pick at something, it would probably be the one-shot difficulty and the fact that the map feels slightly too large (a smaller map would mean embracing the chaos earlier!)

great entry!

I planned initially on swapping around the spawn point of the door and the key so the player would be running around trying to find the door desperately
