I was hoping someone would make a programming game, but I never thought I would see a bullet-hell game! This is such a creative concept—absolutely worthy of the 5 stars I’m giving it.

thanks for playing!

This was fun and a good use of the theme.  I enjoyed trying different combinations to find what worked best for my play style.  There were a couple of blocks that where a little hard for me to read, due to the color contrast, but I was able to figure them out.  The enemy animations were absolutely delightful, and I enjoyed watching them when I wasn't too focused on running away from them.

thanks for the feedback!

cool take on the theme and LOVE the enemy design the animations are very satisfying lol. the loop mechanic was fun but maybe there could be a way to remove single blocks from the loop? as far as i could tell if you wanted to remove a block you had to clear them all and start again. otherwise really fun game especially when it got properly going.

if you have the time i'd really appreciate some feedback on my game too, its my first game jam and im trying to get better! /jam/gmtk-2025/rate/3780834

I wanted to add that but I ran out of time. I try to check your game out later!

Great survival game. I like the controls, especially how you can aim your bullets where you point your mouse. It's also satisfying to get all the upgrades you need in the late game. Good job!

really creative take on the loop theme,  well done! only problem was the slow pacing at the start tho, maybe you could've sped it up?

Developer

yeah probably should have done that

Really fun concept. I liked setting up my own weapons, that felt like the core of the game. The long wait time for the first loop made the start very slow though and I would have wanted to get going a bit faster since the modification of the loop was where I found the fun.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. Spent most of the jam getting a super scalable coding system (which ended up being useless of course) and had to speedrun the combat and upgrades; the game play never really ended up how I wanted it to.

Nice work.   Love these coding type of games. Has similarities to the game Net.Attack() on Steam, but a different take on things.  I like it. a few UI helpers would be good (eg show (E) to Exit Editor when in editor - maybe even just take over the screen so there is no confusion)

Developer

Thanks for feedback. I usually add an exit menu button or smth and probably should have done that.

One of the better games I've seen in the jam! Well done
