This is a really fun game! I hope you continue developing this game because it has a lot of potential!
Nice game! I liked that you could play the game differently with varying builds
very polished for a game jam
Very enjoyable game. Could see a wide breadth of spaces to expand!
Pretty fun, feels super solid!
Cool game! Simple, but seems pretty polished :3 great job!
hey cool game I lasted 4 minutes exactly ahahaha, I liked it! our games are somewhat similar :)
Really cool game! The upgrades are pretty neat, I could get some interesting sinergies going. Good job!
Nice game, quite the addictive game loop. Some upgrades just feel a bit weak. Graphics and audio are both great.
Really nice idea for the theme! The heat mechanic is clever, I like that you must balance between shooting (get hot) and staying alive (get cold) at same time, it make the gameplay more strategic than normal shooter. Also the controls feel good and responsive, dashing between enemies is satisfying. One small thing: at beginning it was not so clear for me how exactly the heat increase/decrease works, maybe a short tutorial text or a clearer UI indicator could help new players understand faster. But overall this is a solid, well made entry for a jam game, congrats!
This is a really fun game!! Simple, creative, easily understood concept, and executed well. Definitely gets difficult later on, but it felt like a pretty decent difficulty ramp, if a bit quick. I really liked having to balance shooting with keeping the ship cool, as it really encouraged dodging and being more strategic than a typical game of this style. I could easily see this being expanded with more ideas and mechanics in the future. Good work!
Wasn't clear to me how to increase heat.
Cool idea and very well designed upgrades! You should try to develop this further after the event, when you have more time :D
simple and nice game
Good one man
Fun loop! Definitely a good game to go back and try different builds on. I went from exploding enemies onto each other to trying a bomb-heavy and both were fun!
cool game, i don't understand why that name !!
Zero cool = very cool. The overheating is a very nice way to balance the game. Dashing through enemies super satisfying once i got the hang of it too. Nice powerups and very polished. well done!
pretty fun concept
Pretty cool concept having to keep your reactor balanced between hot and warm. The upgrades are fun so overall a great job on making this game!
