Really nice game. A liked the polish (the player leaning when moving side to side is fun), but it felt quite hard to doge to enemies. Overall this is good, great job :D

Yet another fellow "top down shooter were you pickup weapons that are on countdown to explode that you can throw at enemies". I really enjoyed the perfect throw mechanic but I found the enemies were a bit too unfair dodge and the sudden transition to the result screen felt too jarring. I would love to see more unique weapons that could play into the explosion too.

Great looking game! Play control was hard to pick up, but manageable.

The idea is great and the artwork too! I personally had a hard time getting the hang of it. It would have been better to make the accuracy of enemies less perfect for a chance to dodge the bullets, at this point as soon as an enemy detects you the bullets start shredding through your health. The gun exploding in my hand is a cool mechanic and fits the theme well. 

Please play and rate my game as well.

I really enjoy the art in this game! the concept is really fun too. the very high octane, quick o your feet gameplay is quite enjoyable

This is quite impressive work for only 3 days. Perfect throw mechanic is fun, satisfying sound design and the art is charming. I do think the camera shake and crt effects were turned up a bit too high to the point where it made me a bit dizzy, but that might just be me. I also wish the game had some more concrete scoring system rather than just showing you a variety of stats at the end. Everything else is good. Great job :3

love the "perfect throw" mechanic. very cool UI too. i bricked my run a few times though where i threw my gun and exploded the first gun in the room. i had a good time!
