Amazing game, I still can't understand how many times that black hole in the beginning ended my run. Well done!

This is insanely polished for a game jam. Would love to see this continued to be developed. I kept playing until I got to times up and ended up getting to Wave 13. I will say after about Wave 9 the waves seemed much easier and just like fillers, I'm not sure if that was just me or if they just weren't fine tuned like the rest of the waves. Great job on this!!

This game was so much fun! The main menu is also the sickest i've ever seen in a game jam game 🔥

Honestly this is just so good, the physics are like perfect. Awesome job!

This game is juicy! Damn! I'd buy the game if you were to develop this into a full steam game.

If you’ve already invented a time machine, you could at least share it with the world!

Making a game like this in such a short amount of time is insane. I was really impressed. It reminds me of Severed Steel. I really love the hook + shoot gun combo!


It feels almost like a complete game.

im not gonna say much more than other commenters here. lot of variety, satisfying movement, good physics... I liked it a lot!

Submitted

Amazing game with amazing art + sound! Felt very satisfying drifting around and shooting the enemies.

Overall very fun with a good game loop, satisfying gun play, plus good enemy variety

This was super fun! The physics are fantastic and it seems like a good balance between shotgun movement and grapple movement. I did happen to get stuck at the end of waves sometimes with seemingly no enemies left though.

This game reminds me a lot of spiderhack, a game i love dearly. The game also looks super clean and plays really nice.

the black hole is so awesome, the way you made it suck you with the transparency effects is outstanding!

the bullet-hell is very well implemented in here, I loved the preview hitting area shown before the attacks for you to dodge and the spiderman-like swinging

Submitted

Wow! That was such an amazing game. The black hole physics is out of the world!!
