a bit confusing but a nice game within the constraints of the jam :) good job!
I like the alien designs and the music is great. Didn't quite understand all the uses of the lenses, but I like the concept a lot, its def something worth expanding on
Liked the enemies designs
This is a good game with a a nice spin on the theme to switch between lenses to win. The music is nice; I like it. Now same with the previous comment, I think there's lot of inputs that needed to be kept in mind, and I feel like it would be inconvenient for the players to use WASD, arrow keys, and mouse at the same time. I'd also like to know how the lenses work as I played it, green gives me speed and red could make me attack.
Anyway, in visuals, I love how the assets were drawn. A suggestion would be since it's a top-down game, you could consider the character sprites to be top down too so the movements would feel natural. Adding more game juice like screen shake would make the game more satisfying.
Overall, it's a nice game for a one week long game jam! I could see the potential for your other games in the future. Good job and congratulations!
I don't know how but it was almost playable during one of my attempt. Anyways it is almost impossible to play with an AZERTY keyboard (going left also switch lens continuously and make the game lag a bit). When I switched keyboard for a QWERTY I couldn't cast spells (the arrows didn't work). I didn't manage to cast a single spell :( they are way too long (but I'm already bad at bullet hell games so with broken controls I has no chance)
Thanks for the feedback! I didn't think about other types of keyboards! MY gosh. I originally had plans to add more spells for more variety but I didn't have time so I opted-in for making one really long spell lol. I really appreciate you playing my game and giving me feedback!
