Do you lose some health with time or when shooting or something? I ended up recording myself to check if wasn't dreaming of sometimes dying to the boss with no enemy projectile around ;) , and it happened at one point.

The aesthetics are easily the strongest part of this game. I like the difficult controls, but it takes a moment to learn them. Would love to see your visuals and game design knowledge applied to a bigger project.

Very atmospheric. The pixel art, soundtrack, and particle effects all work really well together. The character sometimes slides around more than I’d like, but I still had a lot of fun playing. It has a ton of personality.

Thema fits really well and idea its also good. Congrats ! 

But controls feels not smooth actually when move my character like sliding and i couldn`t control it really well. Also Area borders (particle effect) its little bit distract the player i guess that we`ll be change for next updates. 

Great first entry, i'd advise you brighten your thumbnail, as i thought i'd already rated this game and almost glossed over it completely in the darkened "already rated" thumbnails.

Movement is a bit floaty, but the pixel art is solid solid work and the shooting felt great. I'd love to see you expand this and grow as a developer, great job c:

Really cool particle effects in this game, both from the dash and the enemy deaths. Using that effect on the title screen was stylish too. Switching between the two weapons was cool, and the dash felt very effective. I especially liked using it to recover from the momentum when switching directions. It made movement feel a little more controllable once I got used to it. The animations were really smooth too, and I liked the main character's design. The weapon switching gives the game a nice base to build on. Cool concept overall.

Nice little run n gun game

I like the 2 weapons you can switch to anytime system and the akimbo pistols.

The dash is a nice feature as well it feels like it has the right duration / cooldown too.

The game seems to have a few small issues on 2 fronts, technically there seems to be a few crashes here and there (seemed to crash for me every time i died) and design wise this really needs a UI for stuff like player health, when you can fire the pistols again (i assumed the delay was a reload) and i also couldn’t tell if i was making any damage to the guy in the car.

Other than that the game definitively has some qualities, your spritework for instance is really great, i like the main character’s design and the weapons (especially the bigger sprites you see on the tutorial screen)

I know you mentioned it’s a placeholder, but it does feel a bit weird to have Alucard on the title screen though XD

Regardless cool concept, good job :)

Lack of sound and ui elements. Looks good, feels a little icy to control, but a good game overall
