Oh boy, i really liked that one. Super pumping soundtrack, nice sound effects. I really like the idea, with such a simple mechanic, you did so much different stuff. Scientists, Guards, Guards with Shields, Guards with helmets. And the Arrow/Bullet ricochet mechanic is really good too, but sometimes it is not 100% flying there where is shows it to you. I think this cool be a really good game, even something you could sell on steam with the right marketing.  But I would need a slighlty less brutal difficulty, maybe more time to move, less dudes with helmets maybe, or slightly less difficult parcour area. I didn`t like the way the character was jumping, I struggled there sometimes. 
Other than difficulty and jumping, really amazing game. Maybe sprinkle in some story, what is going on, what am I and so on. I sadly could not escape the facility...
...maybe I can try again in the future
Tell me when there will be an update for the game.

That's a cool idea. At first, I didn't realize you could move around—I thought you always had to shoot perfectly :D I made it harder on myself than it actually is. :D

Good music and art. But I had trouble playing on web. The projectile kept going the wrong way (flipped across the y-axis) relative to where I was shooting.

it's a pretty good game but it is super hard and the line isn't correct sometimes also I could shoot through walls if I am right next to them, but it was still fun

Super nice game, such a great concept. I struggled a bit wth the controls at first but eventually got the hang of it. I also felt that the game threw you in to the action straight away which was nice, but also a bit overwhelming haha! All in all a really polished game, your team should be proud. There's lots of potential here!

Game concept was amazing, I think this game has more potential to be on Steam. So, if you can increase time to control a parasite and make a tools or ability of Parasite like a time stop or slow time and gun, it will be improved your game Awesome!

Very impressive, but it took me several playthroughs to realize I could move. Some controls displayed on screen at the very beginning would have helped :p

Great game! the music animations characters enviroment are very well made, the mechanics and controls are fun. I had some problems with collisions (being able to pass trough walls) but nothing tha ruined the experience. Great work!

Really fun concept! Reminded me a lot of Katana Zero

I really like this! I would like to get some more view like maybe press on RMB to look further. Also I bet you know about ui faking the trail - sometimes i could make a shot, but trail says me not. And I wish trails were pixelated, but this is really well done!

The game juice is really great here

Great concept, love the pixel art, love the juice and the theme interpretation. My only issues were that there are no checkpoints which makes it really hard to get through (I didn't finish) and that the projectile doesn't always go where the dotted line says it will. Reminds me of Carrion!

This has potential. So many angles to play around and puzzles. Quick decision making and satisfaction hitting angles on the first try. Art style fits perfectly.

Great work and potential to be more in my opinion! :)
