I love the style! To have this much polish in four days is incredible. It also took me a while to realise that I'm fighting ghosts of myself.
Very nice visuals, music was great, the dating aspect was fun. I felt it was lacking some juice and animations in the gameplay but overall a great game. Good job!
Very cute art! Had a good time with this! Almost got tricked into thinking it was a dating sim at first haha
Fun gameplay and really clean execution overall! I had a good time with it. That said, I didn’t really feel the "loop" theme come through strongly—it kind of just felt like progressing from room to room.
The game is fun, but i don't think it implements the "Loop" theme enough. Like, i might as well just be in a different room. Fun game either way, good job!
Nice Game
I don't really get the interpretation of the theme but I love the rest a lot. Top Notch art style. Sound tracks are fantastic. Overall a really polished game!
gaddayum! The music in this slaps so hard! I love seeing games with custom music! I maxed out the circle ability first, then the dagger throwing, and the dagger throwing felt *so* much stronger cuz I could just snap half of the room instantly, which let me get to like room 17 on endless after only upgrading it once. This made me really wanna go play more Hades. I think the sound effects lacked a little punch, and I think the music could have been mixed a little louder, but chaotic environments like this are crazy hard to balance from an audio perspective and you did really good despite that. Maybe some upgrades for the player weapon when you max out one of the companions could have been quite nice, and gives you an excuse to max out the other companions as well, since otherwise the enemies get stronger whilst you have a cap on your strength, so maxing out the next companion feels harder for no extra reward. I think the player's bullets need to be a different colour from the speedy bow guys too, since it was sometimes hard to tell what was my bullet and what wasn't. Other than that, really really satisfying, and had me sweating to dodge everything haha. Awesome game!
very wide variety of enemies wow. the art was also very pleasurable. solid one!
Really awesome artwork and audio ! Gameplay is super fluid and the game is great overall !
I didn't quite understand the "looped recordings of yourself" though.
But to me anyway, the strong idea was to choose your sidekick rather than yourself.
It was fun with the narrative. Good job!
Great game, the graphics made the game super fun, I managed to reach loop 8, I wish it had a few powerups such as double bullets, AOE damage etc, I would've taken this game to the next level, but it was fun
Wow, what a production! The game feels super professional.
Honestly, I’m not really the target audience for this genre, but I still got hooked for a while. The art is absolutely gorgeous, and as an artist myself, I especially loved the “concept art” feature, such a cool idea)
P.S. On one level I accidentally got stuck in a wall and couldn’t move anymore.
Thanks! Im glad you were hooked :)
great game!
Presentation is immaculate, the music is very good and the gameplay is very fun!
Really nice game!
this felt more like a finished game rather than a game jam game
love these games
wow, thanks!
Really cool art!
Very cool! The artwork was amazing, and even though I only played one run, I can tell a lot of effort was put into this!
Wow, the art and music on this are absolutely incredible! This really reminds me of all those great Newgrounds Flash games back in the day
Art look amazing, music too ! Love the fact that you change your companion and not the character, and of course love the little “cutscenes” at the end of the 9 loops :)
Tysm!! We had a lot of fun developing each companion :D
This art in 4 days is insane! The only thing I felt missing was feedback, but overall a really wellrounded experience!
