Fun game! Managing dodging, aiming, and timing an active bar for each shot feels fun and chaotic. I like the moment to moment decision making that comes with deciding whether it’s worth it to greed for the extra damage.

Great game! A little too easy if you get infinite ammo and just spam shoot but I'm just a tryhard

The game feels well made overall. The enemies are just a bit hard in their design imo, cause it is pretty impossible to avoid their attack, when they charge on u. maybe some adjustments there would give it a good feeling :)

Good work on that :)

I really enjoyed this game, being in charge of my own critical hits through a skill check like mechanic where you have to fire at the right time is such a fun and original mechanic! For the most part the game felt pretty well balanced but I found the final enemy to be a little to easy, once you kill the little purple triangles the guy in the middle can't really cause much problems. And the little purple triangle guys were a little too hard to dodge, like rather then weaving around them it felt as if the only option was to run directly away from them and hope you had enough health to take a few hits. I feel like it would be really cool if this game had some kind of dodge mechanic that way you could stay up close and personal in the fights rather than just running away. Really fun game tho and would be really cool to see where you'd go with it next if you continue to work on it.

Cool game!!

Great game! I had fun playing. Nice touch on the spin theme, just wished to see some animation or indicator that i succeeded in criting. Music was amazing! Reminded me of Doom styled argent metalmusic. Very fitting. I would gladly play more if you would consider developing more.

Yooo thanks a lot for the review! I am glad you like the music lol, it's really nice to hear that. And I'm looking forward developing it more. Good luck too on your game jam!! :D

Wicked game...and the enemy ai is seriously dope. The art, music and game feel was totally on point. Great job...it's crazy good for your first game, kudos!
I really liked how the enemy didn't just follow you but also tried to evade your aim and also attacked from different angles. And the critical hit meter was also a cool idea. I only wish that it was easier to figure out when the meter is at the right spot cause its hard to focus on it while trying to aim and evade at such a fast pace. Maybe you can add some other visual indicators for that, like yellow bar when rotating and green when critical hit ready, or a slow mo time, or a simple punch scale animation on the meter.
Overall its a seriously cool game. Awesome work!

very serious game, the mechanic is great, but I wish I could deal more damage from crit.

The music is such a banger right out of the gate! The art is really great and the controls feel so nice.

I wish I didn't have to repeat the tutorial every time I died... because I died several times (in the first room, even, but I think that's just a skill issue haha), and it got annoying to have to keep replaying the tutorial. I also wish the reload was immediate, or at least faster. I lost track of how many shots I had while trying to dodge the incoming enemies that I'd get cornered because I needed to reload.

But the music is so good, the art is so nice, and the gameplay is so smooth and satisfying that I still felt motivated to improve and to keep trying despite how frustrated I might have been feeling.

Very fun! I like the art style and the way spinning was put into the game.

Nice top-down shooter. I like the double incorporation of the theme with both the shooting and the random abilities.

Fun!

Very fun little shooter! Carefully timing the shot for the crit is the type of thing that sounds simple, but breaks my brain when trying to fight enemies, and makes the game very entertaining for what it is!

Developer(+1)

YOOO! Thanks so much for the comment, really made my day :D

Good work, this felt quite polished!

I would recommend having reload start automatically at 0 ammo remaining.

The level of challenge was nicely tuned, the music and sounds were satisfying, and the art was super readable, nice job!

Developer(+1)

Yoo, thanks a lot!!! This is my very first game and I appreciate your feedback on the reload mechanism!

Submitted(+1)

Super simple and fun, I loved the critical shot mechanic and had a lot of fun with the upgrades. Amazing game!

Developer

WOWWWW, thanks yooo, I really appreciate your comment!!

Congrats, I liked it—I found it really fun. I just think it needed some cool power-ups; then it would be perfect.

Submitted(+1)

I really liked it! I did get a bug at the boss level, if you kill the boss BEFORE all the other enemies are dead, you cant shoot any more and you also don't win, so you have to restart the whole chapter. Other than that pretty good game i have fun. Would be cool to see a dash/dodge ability! Good Submission!

Developer

Thank you so so much for reviewing my game!! Really appreciate for the feedback, I'm gonna update it as soon as possible. :D

Fun game, think the view could be a little better, enemies were dashing me from off screen. Fun enough base, well done for completing a game and submitting it.

Other feedback would be damage feedback, it wasn’t always evident that I got hit. also I had some weird collider issues (was at the top of a room and could not move down till I was at the right corner).

Developer

Thanks for the response!! I was really rushing through it because I started a bit late so I don't have enough time to add some juice. I agree with you that the view could be a little better.! I really appreciate the feedback.

if this is your first game then my whole existance is worth nothing, great job mate
its really fun to play but i thought there is second chapter because there is "start a new chapter" so i played it second time. I thought i skipped 2 chapter or smth huh
If i would change something i would add more spinny things

great job, i cant imagine your second game hah
