Very much inspired by Crypt of the Necrodancer. Great job! This was fun to play! Though few, I enjoyed the obstacle/puzzle elements added - they gave just enough variety to the experience, especially for a short jam game.

This game is adorable.

This was impressive! Gameplay was smooth and felt good to move, not being able to go straight backwards makes sense but took a second to adjust to! Graphics were amazing, and soundtrack was bumping! This would fit right at home on a Gameboy cartridge too! Really great work!

I thoroughly enjoyed this game!  I liked how everything moved together. Shooting and dodging felt like I was playing chess.

I really enjoy the flavor text and overall game play! It is really smooth and enjoyable. Now to my favorite part, the pixel art is outstanding. I was blown away with the level of detail and animation. It is truly impressive and amazing work!

Thanks for the comment, 16pixels sometimes feels so small to properly convey ideas, so happy it worked anyway

This is an amazing entry. I remember seeing your ship sprites initially and thinking “i want to play that” and i’m glad I did. Soundtrack was lovely and bouncy and the whole gameplay and audio presentation reminded of crypt of the necrodancer. Having everything move as you move gave the shooting and navigation a lovely thoughtful puzzle to it. Stunning game.

Thanks for playing ! Glad you saw the crypt of necrodancer link, first thing I did when I had the idea was actually firing up the switch and replaying a bit of Cadence of Hyrule

This is unreasonably polished. I like the "cannonplay" in this. Great job!

Thanks for playing !
