I like the "gameboy style" you've made. Nice job
Amazing! I don't have anything to critique on this one, just nice job!
Insanelly hard. But very, very fun. Love the idea of running it on virtual game boy. Really adds to the mood of the game. Nice job.
Loved the gameboy style, but I felt the game sort of easy, also it got me dizzed throughout it.
Very nice. The only thing I didn't like was the way the gameboy shakes when you kill things, it was good at first but later you kill too many things so it is shaking too much.
Found this game very fun. I love how you have incorporated the theme. The different variety of mobs was great as well as the boss. Nice job!
I found it hard to see what was alive in the later levels but overall a good game.
t-t-t-t-t-t-o-o-o-o-o-o much camera shake :) Other than that: very very nice. Loved the retro style, the overall presentation and execution - even though the gameplay gets old quickly.
Interesting. Very nostalgic.
Awesome little game - top pick from what I've played so far, well done.
Amazing! Great effects and the gameboy-like console is nice idea. Check my game too: Presidents bodyguard simulator.
Very charming take on the theme! The shaky camera and strange fire-button were hard to adjust to, though.
Love the presentation of this! The art was well done, but the enemies and the text was a bit hard to parse due to the angle of the "screen" (and also hard to see against the sea of bug corpses, maybe they could disappear after awhile?) Nice job overall!
Excellent! Got a bit of lag after a while from the sheer amount of carnage but this was very fun, simple, to the point, and full of screenshake! Excellent!
Great graphical style, good music, good execution. My main complaints would be that it would be nice to clarify that arrow keys are shooting (it took me a while to figure this out and they have a musical clef symbol next to them I think?), and the screen shake would REALLY be nice to disable. With the sea of bug corpses, a million bullets, and a shaking screen, it gets nearly impossible to see what's going on.
Also, is there a final boss? I got several levels in (15? 17?) but did not know if there was a number I was aiming for.
There IS a final boss! Get to wave 25, if you dare....
Really loved the way it brought up the gameboy, and the controls scribbled on like that, great touches. And the game was great fun to play, well done :)!
The Gameboy-idea really made me smile. The game is fun and a bit addicting. Beating the boss made me cheer! Nicely done! Though the screen-shake/gameboy shake made the game a bit harder to play at some points.
Very nice. I really like the feeling of old school gameboy nostalgia it gives. And the difficulty felt really solid. Awesome work.
First time I got killed by the Boss so I HAD to play again and beat the s**t out of that lobster haha, love the game! from the game boy power switch to the end, round game. Good job!
Thanks for all the positive feedback, everyone! I'll be doing major refinement to my screenshake algorithms from here on. ;)
I actually didn't like the particles appearing outside the Ludum GalCOLOR. It took away from the immersion a bit. Other than that, 4 stars.
That was awesome! :D But the boss killed me :/ Really liked the chaos on the screen after a couple of gun upgrades and lots of enemies :D
Awesome concept! Love game boy style! And the graphics is so beautiful ! Well done!
Congratulations, perfect gameplay and graphics. Very polished.
Another really polished game. Art looks really nice, crossbow feels really good, enemies are nice and have a decent amont of variety. The only thing I'd add is high scores.
Finishing a round is pretty satisfying. Nice job, the graphics are cool!
Great graphics and sorta fun gameplay.
I was happy when that end boss appeared, it changed the pacing from "spin uncontrollably in circles while incredible intense screenshake makes you dizzy" back to "this is actually fun playing". Yeah, I never thought I would say this, but... please less screen shake.
The over-the-top upgrades are fun, but they don't help when you can't see a thing anymore.
Great job! Not only is the game super fun and well put together, but the presentation really tops it off.
it's challenging, 5 stars for the visuals, they're very ingenious, well done
Excellent!
Amazing! Intense! Died at the boss, but will try again later. This game is a blast to play. A gamepad option is the only thing this still needs to be complete!
Good use of the theme. Great graphics and music. Fun! Great job.
I added this to favorites in browser.
Pretty dang awesome. I'll also mirror the comment of a little too much screenshake; I get motion sick from the screen constantly flying all over the place, but otherwise really cool game and aesthetic.
Awesome job! The game itself was fun, and the way you made that certain game system was awesome ;)
I love the gameboy concept! Also technically, nice idea to use a low res render texture.
Almost arthromited when the lgc bounced my brain. The game has so much charm though. Yayy!
Nice use of the theme. Great action game!
Wonderful! great job on the retro style. Its really playable too.
Amazing! Aside from the very cool theme usage, this game is really fun to play, smooth controls, furious action. I understand non filtered textures used for the retro feelings but sometimes there just too much on the (one) screen to cope with.
Overall, excellent job.
Fantastic!Great gameplay,graphics!Very cool and very playable!
I really like the gameboy feel and the quick pace of the game. I would prefer the game to be a little bit harder though.
Really nice :D I liked the fact you were rewarded with a power increase after each wave. I was getting bored of the same red and green enemies at one point, but suddenly I was introduced to a more agile quick shooting enemy, right at the time at which I wanted something else - nice timing. Got to the boss and died there :P
Looks like you addressed the things I would've suggested in your postjam version. :)
The scenary becomes a hell of bugs when you are close from the boss :P
Loved the game.. It was not that easy... but I managed to finish it without dying.. congratulations to you and your team...
and I wish my game boy did not vibrate that much! :P
Nice game, it plays pretty great and I like how it's on the gameboy screen. I'd tone down the screenshake a bit though. Because the game is rendered within the game, it's making me a tad nauseous. Well done though!
Ha ha ha WOW! This was an awesome entry. The floating GameGal background was great, and I feel you've got a really good sense of """""""game feel""""""" or something. I played one round where I got arrows up so many times that the game just got stupidly colourful.
amazing!
Nice gameboy style. Simple game but fun.
Nice gba styling and impressive unity work, good job.
Hey, I really liked your use of the theme for this entry! Things got so hectic so quickly, I kinda didn't know what was going on - but the sheer power the character has by the ended just added to the quirkiness I felt. :)
I felt the music didn't really suit the GBC idea of the game, perhaps a full chip song written in LSDJ might have fit the bill a bit better? Still, that's really just nitpicking on my behalf.
I really loved little touches like particle effects appearing //behind// the screen, they helped add to the polish of the game itself.
I really liked this, keep up the good work folks! :D
Amazing! Nice survival with Binding-Of-Isaac-like controls.
I just tried the post-jam version. Much better with less clutter and less screenshake! I'm not sure the screenshake is even necessary, but it's much more playable now. :) Those watermelon bugs are really hard to dodge, but I finally managed to win, even!
Thanks for the positive feedback, everyone!
Seems the new version is a big step in the right direction, there'e no better way to figure out what went wrong than to show it to other people. ;)
Nice take on the theme.
You should definitely add a link to this page on itch.io !
that deserve to win at least the Theme section I think!! very original.
Congrats
Great work. Enjoyed every aspect and I love the fake game boy style!
Super nice game!
Monsters' goo everywhere! I like this style!!!
Brilliant twin stick shooter with an awesome style! Brings me back to when I was little, playing Pokemon and other titles on my own purple Gameboy Color!
Wow! What an incredible game! Awesome music! Challenging gameplay! Looks so cool! awesome job!
I'm addicted haha
