Great concept, great vibes, very cool mechanics and atmosphere!

i only wish there was some feedback when hitting an enemy!

overall awesome game!!

Submitted

I love the atmosphere even though it's not my type of game ! It has so much potential, too bad we had only limited time to make games... 

Very stylish!

Submitted

Superb job! All of the elements are exceptionally polished and creative.

Submitted

I loved the gloomy vibe! The main mechanics felt fun and dynamic, the audio changing with the new scene was very cool and well executed. Overall a very polished experience, congrats :)

Developer

Thank you for the kind words :]

Submitted

Really cool game and core mechanics paired with maybe my favourite aesthetics (both Art and Audio) that I've seen all Jam!

My only minor gripe is that I wish there was a little more feedback when you hit an enemy, otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed~ 

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the kind words :]

Yeah enemy hit feedback is something that was cut for time unfortunately, we're planning on releasing a version after the jam voting period with everything we couldn't fit into the jam version due to time (random generation, boss fights, more enemies, etc)

Cool Game :)

Developer

Thank you :]

Submitted

The gameplay was pretty satisfying and really liked the way you incorporated the theme into it. Also loved the main menu design. Good job!

Developer

Thanks! The main menu was directly inspired by how rain world does its main menu with the different parallax layers 

Submitted

Great game. The graphics are really pretty and I especially liked the lighting. The only thing I'd point out is I saw some inconsistent pixel size here and there, but that's not a big issue. Also, the combat music is awesome!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Macks knocked it out of the park with the music. This was our first time doing a pixel art game in unity so there's probably some settings we messed up causing the pixel size issues xd

Developer

thank u both, I really appreciate it!

Submitted

Nice concept. I think on the web using shift and right click breaks the game though. It's opening my right-click menu and then nothing was working haha

Developer

Thank you! That's unfortunate with the web version, I guess it's activating a web browser short cut =/ 

Submitted

Nice gameplay,art and music!

Developer

Thank you! :]

Submitted

Pretty cool bullet hell like. I expect the shift button to be sprint but it was slow motion. It felt like The Matrix.

Developer

Thanks! Fun fact about using the slow-mo shift, while it slows down gameplay it does not slow down the timer. 

Submitted

Beautiful art style and really fun gameplay! Great job.

Developer

Thank you for the kind words :]

Submitted

Took me a minute to understand but it's a cool idea and the graphics are well done

Developer

I'm glad you eventually got it, I wanted to include a tutorial this year but alas

Submitted

Excellent gameplay!

Developer

Thank you :]

Loved the music and the color palette!

Developer(+1)

Macks killed it with the music. Our artists struck gold with the color palette like two jams ago and we've just been reusing it with variations since ha ha.
