Really nice game, giving Biding of Isaac feels! It was quite hard but I managed to beat the boss without having myself a heart attack :D

The hits have such a good PUNCH to them, it really feels like your projectiles are hitting hard, the screen shake, slight pause and recoil are all so perfectly done. And the game is also so nicely balanced to keep you on your toes and keep the pressure up while not feeling unfair. Love the idea for the mechanic (first time didn't realize I was buying upgrades using time and left myself with 5 shots lol)
Musics, and mechanical feelings are fantastic, beside that pretty good rhythm game.
This was fun! I wish I could see my current upgrades on the side. I think there's enough space for that. Was also expecting a different 2nd boss but the variety in enemies is more than enough for the jam. I like the tradeoff between hp and upgrades. Very thematic.
Really interesting take on the countdown theme, having to pick up remaining heartbeats from enemies is a really interesting and unique mechanic, would love to see this taken further c:
Really really nice soundtrack, rhythm, and art. It plays very smooth and is a great fit for the theme!
A truly stunning performance and soundtrack—the rhythm and sound effects were particularly well-matched. I really love your game; thank you once again for all your hard work!
OMG wow, this is so polished!! the controls were awesome and i like that the currency for buying upgrades is also your precious time. super cool ^ ^
I loved this game, it was really fun to play and well polished, the music fits in very well with the combat. overall really impressed with this one. Great work!
HECTIC. You gotta make this a full game, I'd buy that for a buck fifty
WTF, It's insanely good. The music and gameplay just feel perfect. Just a bit short for my taste, could have play 30 more round !
Damn this game is super impressive. I have no idea how you did this in 4 days. I think what is here is incredible. Great job!!
That was sick, can legit win. Best use of the theme I've played so far!
Good game, death ain't got sh** on me. I would love to see more of this in a greater roguelike format
Great use of the theme, challenging but fun and very polished. Great work!
