Developer

thank you so much!

Super Fun game  10/10   :D

Developer

thank you so so much!

This was a cool game and similar the concept of my game! I really loved the #3 pink shells. I think if they were rarer or if all the shells spawned had a lifespan set it would be a nice boost to the difficulty curve without changing too much. The variation in shell shooting was very fun and satisfying and it was easy to keep playing. Nice work y'all! 

Developer

thank you for your feedback, I agree with you that the nade shell should be far more rare

Submitted

Excellent shell game friend!

Developer

thank you!

The balance of the game is so easy that it is possible to ьake this screenshot in the middle of the game because I have so much lives that I can just stay for a while and do whatever I want. The idea of the game is very good; it reminds me of old beautiful game Crimson Land. It will be really nice to have some upgrades maybe on the floor, or maybe appear after killing some of the enemies. But yeah, I understand that this game was made for the game jam, and you don't have so much time. Very nice design! All enemies are animated, respect for that.

Developer

thank you for your feedback!  I agree, there needs to be a bit more challenge for the game to be ideally balanced.

Submitted

Do you plan to continue develop it more? ("No" is ok answer too)

Developer

possibly, our team had a lot of other ideas that we'd love to bring to life!

Mechanically very fun! I spent a good amount of time locked in and immersed in the game since the controls were very fluid, and the mechanics of scrolling to different weapons was great too! My only small gripe would be that the hitbox to pick up ammo is very small, but maybe that's just a me thing. Overall, had a blast literally.

Developer

thanks for your feedback, we appreciate it!

Very fun! I really liked the different kinds of ammunition it was super easy to tell them apart after a few uses and the enemies drop a fair amount of ammunition when killed which becomes super useful.  The variety of enemies kept the gameplay interesting and they have nice pixel art. Also, great job on the logo, its very memorable!  

Developer

thank you so much for your kind feedback, and I'm super glad you enjoyed the logo (:

Heaven for my ears! Art and gameplay is fun, even with all the enemies on the screen i dont feel overwhelmed. The game ads promised us but never delivered, you did in 3 days! great game

Developer

SFX and music are my favorite out of any game I've played so far. I had a blast playing around with the different types of ammo. I think the HP might have been a bit more than what I'd expect but besides that,

Awesome game!

Developer(+1)

thank you so much for your feedback!  I agree with you, the player is quite tanky and sometimes the balance can be quickly thrown toward/against the player.  we appreciate you!

Enjoyed the game, found out early on, if you kite the enemies and cluster them, using the explosive shell, ends up paying for itself in the end. So if there are changes/updates maybe making the explosion shell a bit rarer or something. Also loved the designs!

Developer

thanks for your review, I definitely agree with you.  more tweaks and polish would be great to add to make it a more balanced game.  we appreciate you!

A fun and cool game! I loved the art, and the double take on the theme (with both seashells and gun shells). The 2 frame enemy animations really gave them lots of life, and the music was wonderful as well! it didn't feel super innovative, but one of my favorite games this jam to be sure.

Developer(+1)

thanks for your review!  glad you enjoyed the art & music.  we wanted to start with a straightforward and recognizable game formula first and then branch out from there, but ultimately we didn't have enough time to fully expand our vision.  thank you for the feedback, and I appreciate what you noted!

Submitted

simple but enjoyable game. I would have liked to see more variation in the enemy behavior - all of them just chasing after you got a bit boring. Having some sort of ranged enemies, enemies with different movement patterns, and more could be a great addition.

Developer

thanks for your review!  I completely agree with you, if we had more time we would have loved to add other enemy AI besides a constant chase.

I really liked the pixel art and sound design for this game! It got quite intense at the end but it was still fun. I liked the different bullet types :) 
Good game!

Developer

thank you so much!

Fun game! Simple, but I definitely played longer than I expected. The three weapon options were great, and trying to keep stocked up on ammo was a nice added challenge as well.

Developer

thank you so much! we appreciate your feedback.

Final Score: 5695
Love the shells as ammo concept and design wise the three ammo types pair perfectly with the three enemy types. Super clever! Seems inspired by Enter the Gungeon and Vampire Survivors.

Developer

thank you so much!  we really appreciate your feedback, and you were exactly right with those inspirations!

What  a great game!! Super cool graphics, energetic music, and enough complexity so it's not boring but it doesn't get confusing. Another great build by the legend @bluestreak1

Developer

thank you so much!

Enjoyed playing this game.  Like the smooth game play, creative stalking creatures, cool theme, and music. Conserving and picking up / using available ammo was challenging.  I often found myself fleeing hordes of shell stalkers!  Like the uniqueness of the game!  Well done.

Developer

we appreciate your review! glad you enjoyed the challenge!
