I liked how each of the weapons had different roles and you should swap between them. It also allowed you to time the weapons better, as each of them can have different speed, so you could insta swap to deal damage :DDD. The controls did confuse me a lot as I expected W to move to the middle of circle and S away from the circle. It was fun XD

This is a very interesting concept! For me, in the middle of the game, I had an epiphany when I realized that I can move around the 2D arena with W/S and dodge enemies and projectiles. It's very nice when a game makes the game feel smart :D

I want to praise the upgrades and the fact that the game is moderately difficult, providing a challenge, this is very good!

P.S. BIGGER SWORD - one love :D

So, I was convinced this was a bad game when I started, then I slowly discovered that actually the gameplay has a surprising amount of emergent depth...

I'll defo be coming back to this for more later!

im at a loss for world the idea is so simple...
and yet so briliant

pretty neat! I like the two states you need to alternate between, they balance one another very nicely. also the small pixel art visuals were cute. Good job!

If you would like to try out my brother's game its here! - https://aviv-youker-harel.itch.io/orbit-express

Fabulous game, I was fully invested and kept playing even after all of the upgrades. however its too easy to just do nothing. and stay in one place. Even with that flaw its a great game.

This is a very cool concept. It fits the theme well while having engaging gameplay. I enjoy that the gameplay is difficult and challenging. Definitely has my rating for the game jam!

Woah what a cool idea! This game was incredibly hard at first, because it is so different! But once you start getting the hang of it it's really good! Great take on the theme!

My only gripe is that the fullscreen didn't work for me, so the game was very small on my monitor. But other than that I had a great time with it. Well done!
