This is a very feature-complete game, especially for a short jam like this one. There's a good variety of enemies, bullet patterns, and even some navigation puzzles (with the round plates that turn off again when you step on them a second time.) The balance is also pretty good, with the checkpoints not being placed too closely together or too far apart.

Good job! I'm quite impressed by this.

This game is extremely fun, mixing up gameplay by changing the goal of each room. The tutorial at the start made it very easy to jump right in to exploring the rest of the map. The visuals and audio are excellent, fitting the theme in terms of atmosphere and scenery. It is also very challenging, but I found a bug in the game that makes most rooms easy to pass. Upon dying in a room and returning to a checkpoint, pausing the game and clicking resume will send your character to the center of the room you last died in, with full health. All rooms are pretty much checkpoint rooms at this point, and even if your character spawns on a central enemy it is possible to avoid all damage by dashing quickly enough. The last, seemingly impossible level can be beat using this method by dashing to the top-right corner while taking 0 damage, tanking the bullets until 9 seconds, then dashing back towards the center and getting lucky enough for the timer to hit 10 seconds to see...

The door you just came from open back up. And dying anyway.

I loved the game!

The game is very difficult. There's a lot of content, so you can probably play for hours without getting bored. The player feels kinda awful to control, though. They don't have much acceleration, so control feels difficult. The lack of an invincibility after getting hit makes dying from a mistake very easy to happen. The game is relentless without any leniency. The game has cute art and nice accompanying sounds, though. Great work!

It is hard to believe that this a jam game. This feels like a game that took months of effort and I should be paying for. I love the variety of rooms. The music is great. The only complaint I could make is that the door hitboxes felt too big, but I also had the tendency to rub against the walls to avoid bullets.

A couple of minor issues aside (floaty controls and massive hitboxes being the main things) this is a great entry. Looks great and is fun to play, with some challenging rooms towards the end. This one though? This isn't possible is it?!

Very nice game ! I love graphics and sound design. Some rooms are so hard, i did not reach the end of the game yet but did you cared about the possibility to perfect each room without being hit ?

Congrats for it !

Really cool game! But sadly, after a while, the game got impossible... the dash was no longer working, and the animations were broken! But otherwise, the music is very good! The graphics are very cute too :D Great job

Instant fun and solid package overall

I like the original spin on the concept, where you've turned a bullet hell in more of a puzzle game where you have to solve rooms to move on and with no weapon for the player you essetially just focus on dodging.

The vector art is really good, it has that distinctive cartoony flash game style to it ^^

also a good point on approachability hre as it starts slow and the fact you don't fight back really helps learning how to avoid certain patterns since the game is focus on one task to either survive or activate items.

My only gripe here is that you can accidentally go backwards if you didn't remember which door you came from afet some intense dodging, so it could be nice to have only the next level's door open.

Other than that like i said solid and polished, good job :)

this was so much fun tough but very addictive... this one is a keeper, you should make this into a full game with more features , will you continue to make this game after the Jam ? love the music, where did you get it ?
