I think the core idea of this dungeon crawler is pretty good and with a bit more time with enemies and polishing movement and shooting, it could be a hit!

Good submission, I had fun! keeping all the enemies in one big group while running around the room created a fun visual for me and made me think about my moves haha
Interesting take on the theme. Needs some more work, but great work for a short jam.
Cool concept! I like the idea of the changing rooms! Movement was a tad slow for my liking. Good work!
Cool take on the theme. The gameplay felt a little slow though, every action takes quite a while and every room doing the long zoom out animation to show changed paths could have been sped up a bit. Fun overall though! Oh and the bug with the boss is clearly just an intended feature to add to the countdown theme of course, since you have to get there fast on the web build :)
Feel free to rate my game too if you get the chance!
Really nice game! Your theme interpretation is super creative, instead of counting down time, count down possible paths to boss, and i like that it adds some strategic thinking to gameplay, you need to choose path wisely, some times opening room just to secure them for future (path to shop for example).
Only one major issue for me - standing combat, I think it would be better, and more paced if you add ability to shoot while you moving.
But overall great game well done!
The game looks quite polished and does everything it was supposed to do ,though there could be some improvements to the gameplay. It was really cool you pulled it off in 4 days!
I really loved the style of the art and the animations! I struggled a bit with aiming the gun but I am bad at Aim Gun in general. Well done, especially in 4 days!
Impressive game! I really liked the look of it and the gameplay and shops worked well. I think it could have used more gameplay variety like different enemies and weapons , but I enjoyed it nonetheless!
The game looks very nice. I defeated the boss and completed the dungeon. I felt the skeletons had the right difficulty and i liked finding the shop.
Really liked this one and even wish there was a bit more to play! I managed to beat the game using the Web build despite the massive flood of enemies from the boss room on my 3rd try! Would love to see more upgrades to buy, perhaps some sort of movement speed and reload speed upgrades to be able to maneuver and shoot quicker. Great stuff!
