How does your game fit the theme?
Neon Cage is a 2D one-button roguelite where you only shoot. Trapped in an electrified square arena, your only escape is draining the energy walls by shooting its batteries. To summarize, the arena in this case is a box and you need to escape, destroying the box walls.

Great concept! I really enjoyed it, even though i suck at it. One issue I had was going to the menu by mistake, in my frantic mouse-mashing, I pressed to go to the menu by accident, this could be solved with a confirmation box or as another user has mentioned, holding the mouse to shoot. The art style is impeccable, my compliments to the chef

Cool visual style, great presentation, it was fun!
I imagine the gameplay would wave been even more enjoable using a gamepad though - having visible cursor and using a drawing tablet (my habit) felt like I was cheating :'D

Clicking repeatedly got a bit tiring so I would recommend adding the ability to hold to shoot, the damage of the enemies did feel like a bit much when there were multiple and taking up a lot of the space, and I'd like there to be more story, but this was a really fun and cool experience!

The ping-ponging off the walls was unique, the assets were used really well, and the music was great!

I really like the art and the gameplay, Its really fun to manage enemies and your damage to the box at the same time, although the saws feel a bit too powerful, but other than that the game is really fun and the art and music is great!
