Like if John Conway's Game of Life was created by a psychopath in the best way possible. Insanely creative concept well excecuted. Little obsessed!

FRUITLOOP.Great concept! Very polished. I like how this feels math-y, when I zone myself out of the specific line. Very cool game and a fitting idea for this jam! Really good game.

The Loopy PrinceI'll would say this has to be like top 5 bests games I've played so far. Very well done!

Uroboros FrogThis is so sick!! There's something so cathartic about the difficulty coming from your own actions, feels like there's a life lesson in there somewhere lol. The inclusion of different guns was great for adding variation, I was so surprised at how different the game feels for each one, it's a lovely piece of design. The presentation is minimalist but really really appealing. The music was banging and alongside the visuals it was like a music video or something.
Thank you for making this! Really great entry.
I absolutely love this. Not much of a bullet hell guy, but when I'm my own enemy? That's a strategy game. The gun that shoots an x/+ is my favourite because you only have to deal with the bullets that remain after you hit something successfully. Also love the game of life-esc-ness, whether it was intentional or not.

Boost CycleReally cool take on the theme, it's a unique mix of action and puzzle, and super hard :D

Wake Up! (GMTK Game Jam 2025)Maybe it's the web version, maybe it's me, but I wasn't able to play the game.
Nothing happens during 20 seconds, then a huge amount of enemies spawn and kill me instantly. I don't even have time to see them appear on screen.
Do you think downloading the game would help ?

Pro Waterloop Manager 2025I really liked the loop mechanic here, being careful with bullets was a fun challenge! The shaders were cool. I didn't really understand the health mechanic. The tutorial made it sound like you'd get more health (power?) as you kill enemies, but nothing I did appeared to heal me. I also didn't quite get why all the enemies had a "down arrow", etc. But overall I enjoyed my playthrough

Loop HellHello! Yeah, the health mechanic was probably a bit unclear 😅. More power (green cubes) spawn the more enemies die, and that in turn increases your health next wave. The down arrows / triangles were a way to show they were enemies with the ”Tricorp” trying to kill you and all that. I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Loop HellVery creative interpretation of the theme! You incorporate a risk/reward system exceptionally well. Excellent game!
