Absolutely loved this, really well executed a beautifully done.

At first i found the controls a little frustrating but i think this was due to the difficulty curve and had to replay a few times before getting the hang of the controls. After a while though i got it and really enjoyed it.

Only real suggestion would be the inclusion of some kind of scoring mechanic to give a reason to replay.

It may also be worth uploading some screengrabs since players will be downloading an apk from drive.

Great work!

@joekinglake thank you so much for playing! I had a scoring system in mind, as well as a boss but I couldn't get them in time. It's definitely something I'm adding to a post jam build, as well as fine tuning the controls(the dpad needs a better neutral zone). And yep, pictures will be going up soon, thanks for the feedback!

Super cute and well made! I didn't get far into it the game, but for what I saw and played, the controls were tight and didn't take me long to figure it out, artisticly looks like a real GB if it was capable of 3D, and thr music fits well. With some more time, this could become a very well fleshed out game but this is good, even for a jam like this. Good Job, Venny!

@Mega-Glitch thanks for playing it! Will be fleshing it iut a bit in the following days!

I really like the retro 3d graphics, and using the power light as a health indicator is very clever. I did find it hard to judge how far away enemies and projectiles are, but a good game overall.

@nebbishhacker thanks for playing! Unfortunately the artstyle I was going for meant depth perception was gonna be hard to achieve. It's gonna be one of those things that I'll just have to accept as a limitation of the media.

I don't know why but it doesn't let me download it, Drive tells me there is an error analyzing it. The screenshots look amazing though

@AnaGF Hm that's weird, I don't seem to be having any issues with the links. Which one did you use?
