How does your game fit the theme?
Two portals on the edges of the screen allow the bullets to "Loop" arround

Sometimes i would shoot at an enemy and they wouldn't die. other then that it felt really polished
hmm never encountered this bug during playtesting, could it be that you didnt shoot the blue enemies with red ammunition or the other way arround? Otherwise i will definitely look into that. thanks for the feedback :D
I really like the vfx and the music, good job!
That's clean ! Visuals are good !
Great art and sound! Shooting could use more impact — maybe screen shake?
Quite enjoyed it! Admittedly a bit biased towards shmups but it was a fun little game with a neat gimmick. I only wish the projectiles were a little more visible and enemy variety better utilized the looping aspect, especially since the shielded ones are fairly cheese-able and are the only enemy really encouraging the use of the mechanic. The colored projectiles and looping encouraging you not to waste shots (as they might literally hit you back), plus the enemies being able to hit each others made for a fairly exhilerating game even with its shortcomings.
hey, thanks again for checking out the game and taking the time to come back and comment in such detail, really appreciate it, i very much agree with the main gimmick not beeing utilized enough, i think i would have caught that issue if i had any time at all for playtesting more than a minute so i might try to update the game once possible. Really happy you enjoyed the game tho, thats the whole point after all :D
Fun little game with two cool mechanics, well done!
Really cool take on the theme. The art is really good and I love all of the particles that make the game look super polished
A fun take on bullet hell! there some small flaws with the fact that enemies could be shot from below bypassing the portal loop mechanic but otherwise a fun and enjoyable idea
this game forced me to use the extra part of your brain that you're not able to normally unlock - shot myself multiple times, but that only made me wanna play more. very unique mechanic and super fun!! amazing job!
the visuals and sound are next level
Audio is literal ear candy
amazing artwork, great sound. needs a bit more juice/ responsiveness when shooting enemies, such as screen shake maybe.
thank you very much :D, unfortunately i was running out of time so i couldnt add a few of the soundeffects, particles etc that were planned for the finished game
