The pace was a little too slow and the upgrades not noticeable enough for my taste but the game felt polished and the blast was satisfying!

Thank you! I can definently see the upgrade slowness, and after the jam i will fix the issue.

A fine top-down-shooter. Very simple but clear presentation and a gameplay that's easy to pick and play. Though I do think that the time limit is a little too strict

it's very intuitive to play and feels very satisfying. I wish the charge beam was on a different key though, I accidentally opened my windows search bar trying to press it under the WASD. Probably a skill issue. Awesome game, lots of fun, congrats on the submission :)

I love the giant laser blast! The shapes and visual language make the game very readable and easy to play... but unfortunately I'm a firefox user and it runs at 2 fps. I'm just gonna pretend its bullet time and I'm using my powers to slow the clock

I love the game, especially it's leveling. There are some performance issues, mainly on a firefox. I hope it will be fixed after the jam

Developer

Ty so much, i figured out how to fix the lag problem, and i will fix it when the jam allows me to change the files.
