Really cool art and a great visual style!

Charming game! It was harder than I expected right from the start, but well made! The hitbox for the melee attack was a lot smaller than it looked. And for me, the extra bullet upgrade was not resetting on restart.

LOVE the art style and vibe, though think it could've been elevated by some great music... deceptively difficult but maybe there's some tech I haven't figured out?

Such a cute art style! With a little more refinement to the gameplay and some extra polish, this could be even more fun. Keep it up!

Beautifull game! it was quite challanging too!
I would've added some player feedback when you hit the enemies. (like flashing sprites) This way you know how much hits an enemy is removed from dying.
Great job! Be proud!

When I saw the little wand with the bunny hand I knew this was going to be a banger. The art is so pretty!

I encountered a massive skill issue, which was doubled by my need to stare at the pretty art instead of the monsters coming to bite me. Good job!

Drawings is really cute and cool looking really enjoyed the gameplay too. Also progression is not getting resets between runs I think 😸

Developer

Always great to see another paper cutout art style enjoyer. Love the twist of counting sheep vs killing monsters. Couldn't really get the melee to work tho, the projectile weapon just felt so much stronger, but maybe I am missing something

Developer

Thank you for playing! Yeah, the melee is definitely significantly weaker than the projectile weapon, which is even clearer with the bug where the stats don't reset between runs.
