Thank you for playing and for the honest feedback! You're absolutely right that the controls were too much to take in upfront and the purple lines (blood gates) needed way better explanation. I've just pushed an update that adds a proper training mode which walks you through each mechanic one at a time: movement, speed, rotation, formations, shooting, gates, and the destroyer bomb. No more guessing what things do. Also good point about the empty areas, some zones could be scaled down to keep things more compact and intense. Appreciate you taking the time, your notes genuinely made the game better.

This is probably one of the most unique games I've played in the jam, the game play felt really intuitive and made me feel really smart and skillful, the horror elements aren't as prominent but I really like how you implemented the theme with easter. The areas besides the gameplay feel a little empty and too large, idk if your trying to add a claustrophobic feel but it could be better for gameplay if they were scaled down.

Thanks for playing! Great feedback on the controls. You're right that it's too much upfront. The purple lines are formation gates (you need to switch shape to fit through), but the fact that wasn't clear proves your point about needing in-game teaching. The X key toggles 3x speed too, which would've helped with pacing. Also, under Settings there are debug keys. I is for invincible, if you want to see more of the game. I'm actually thinking of adding a short training section upfront to walk players through the controls properly. Good to know too that I mostly debugged with an Xbox 360 gamepad, so keyboard feel may need some tuning. Appreciate the honest notes on cohesion. Noted for future work.

That beat goes hard! Really cool concept, very creative. I think instead of having the controls be something you read before going in, there's no way i can remember all that, have maybe each new section show a new control and how to use it, that way you can build knowledge along the way. I died crossing some purple line but have no idea why. Also could be faster. I understand that the lady's resurrection is the theme match and also there are easter eggs in the blood stream, but none of that felt very cohesive.
