Use of the limitation
The whole game is basically designed around the limitation, with over-the-top power-ups and becoming ridiculously overpowered (and under-powered hah). The game's title is a obv riff on the limitation too :)

I love that the upgrades were all very unique. Visuals are great and so is the game juice. Sounds would’ve made this a 11/10. Keep up the good work!

Very fun, good presentation. Powerups were unique and fun (Loved the pac-man one). You feel really reliant on powerups - in a good way. It makes you feel really overpowered when you have one and underpowered when you don't. Good presentation and player feedback, the one complaint I have is that it is (at times) kind of hard to see the player. Very good game! Well done!

Developer(+1)

Ah, thanks for the feedback!! Glad you enjoyed :)

Hey there, fellow submission of a bullet hell game! I loved your game, the upgrades were hilarious and refreshing haha! Good job on doing so much in such  a short time

Developer(+1)

Ah nice! So glad you enjoyed it, much appreciated!!

Submitted(+1)

This is a really interesting game! I love the different visuals and the over-the-top changes of form. I genuinely wasn't expecting to transform into Pac-Man, haha! It definitely keeps things fresh and exciting. It's amazing how much you managed to do in just 72 hours. You completely nailed the theme for this jam!

Developer

Ah thanks so much for the kind words and feedback! Very appreciated :)

Absolutely insane game, especially for PICO 8. A total visual splurge in the best way. You feel ridiculously overpowered right from the start, and it only gets more absurd with each power-up. I kept losing myself in all the particles and chaos, but honestly, that just added to the feeling of being unstoppable. The power-up-to-power-up survival loop is super exciting, and waiting to see what you get next is a thrill. Identity Crisis may be my favorite lol. Extra kudos if you actually got the 2-player mode working!

Developer

Aw thank you for playing it!! So glad the over-the-top effects and general loop resonated with you, that was exactly my hope. Also so glad to hear someone likes Identity Crisis hahah, you're the first to mention it in here! Thanks again for the thoughtful review, I really appreciate it!!

Incredible use of style for PICO 8, visuals are fantastic and I feel ridiculously overpowered, I love it!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for the kind words!

Submitted(+1)

This game is a banger for sure. I think I'm bad at bullet hells tho because I can't make it very far (partly due to losing my character in the particles). Not sure of what PICO 8 limitations are and if you could even make it so the player ship stands out more.

Otherwise, the visuals just feel right and satisfying. Well done.

Developer

Thanks so much for the feedback! Its definitely challenging and there's a lot going on lol. Thanks so much for trying out the game :) :)

This is probably the best use of the theme, I love the art

Developer

Thank you so much for the kind words!! :)

This was a treat for the eyeballs! I kept losing track of where I was on the screen but I didn't care because my score was going up and everything was exploding, fun times!

Developer(+1)

Hahaha YES that is exactly what I was hoping for. Thanks so much for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Cool as hell

Developer(+1)

Aw thanks so much for the kind feedback!!

THIS IS SOOO FUUUNNN

I REAAALLYYY love how over the top and creative the upgrades are!!! I got to 9770 score but I 100% will try to go farther than that later!

Developer(+1)

!!! Ahhh so glad you like it!!! Appreciate the feedback so much <3 Hey that's a totally respectable score!!!! Getting the JACKPOT powerup during a MAX chain goes a long way lol! Thanks again for playing
