Fun , the only find that I don't like, it's the game is not fair , like putting a shot gun turret at the end of the corridor make it nearly impossible for exemple. BUT I like this game. You said if you get enought feedback you will continue , so I hope you will get enougth !

simonemueller 2020-04-21 01:23

really like it, good job guys :)

dryden 2020-04-21 01:24

Beautiful game its just very hard...

homoludens 2020-04-21 01:24

Visually incredibly impressive however requires a bit more tuning up in the level design. It is too slow to be a reflex based game but not very planning oriented to be more slower paced. Visally great mood however!

grossepelle 2020-04-21 01:28

Very nice one!! A pleasure finishing this game, simple but efficient!

zezel 2020-04-21 01:28

Very cool game ! Maybe need more levels but very fun to play !

ludumdaredevil 2020-04-21 01:28

Nice game! A little hard though. If you could expand on this game that would be cool.

physi3 2020-04-21 01:29

Very hard, very fun, lots of good after effects :)

ugurcan 2020-04-21 01:29

Graphics are perfect and gameplay is smooth some levels are too hard but it's fun.

joaquinm 2020-04-21 01:29

nice mechanics and graphics!, well done!

shwany-b 2020-04-21 01:30

Cool concept, I was excited by the first level where the squares shot eachother but then that never happened again

aspect11 2020-04-21 01:30

Really fun game i finished all the levels too !

scott-steffes 2020-04-21 01:31

I made it through every level by just running like heck. I wish there were more timing-based elements, so I couldn't just blast through it! I love the CRT-style blown-out graphics. Very cool!

ul0n 2020-04-21 01:46

i love the mechanics and the graphics, good job :)

terderrer 2020-04-21 03:10

I love the whole crt aesthetic you got going on with this. feel like you need something else to spice it up tho. Otherwise its awesome and it works

ssh-randy 2020-04-21 03:11

a little confused, i couldn't get through any levels? Not sure if there were any controls besides WASD, but the bullets were fast enough that you can't effectively dodge anything. Maybe a problem on windows?

amdmaster 2020-04-21 07:08

The game is well made, Do the levels light up when you complete a certain level, I thought it would be nice. The game play is fun but little restricting and feels like your playing the same levels over and over again. Touch work though. Keep it up for submitting.

abk507 2020-04-21 15:12

these graphs are amazing

tgiant 2020-04-21 15:46

Nice little game an good use of shaders. Simple but fun.

elendow 2020-04-21 15:48

Good use of post processing elements, the art is simple but it looks pretty good. The gameplay is also simple but has lots of potential, with some extra mechanics you could make very cool challenges.

lairinlair 2020-04-21 15:55

The art is original, and thats the thing. Good game. Couple more mechanics and balance and its good to go. Continue it!

arturnista 2020-04-21 15:57

The graphics are amazing, post processing made the difference here. The gameplay is fun, but I think the level design was too repetitive. The mechanic of killing the enemies with its bullets is great!

mkraw 2020-04-21 15:57

pretty good

tom-stephenson 2020-04-21 17:14

A fun game! The post pro / glowing effects really added personality to the game and helped bring it to life. The gameplay was solid and intuitive. The ability to make enemy turrets shoot each other was a nice touch, well done!

magus77 2020-04-21 17:24

i loved the graphics and concept! if you add a timer this can easily become a speedrunning game. Loved the CRT look and feel with the grain and the somewhat fisheyed lens. I think this could be a very good mobile game too

perpetuummobile 2020-04-21 19:57

The idea was excellent, it's really fun to play. One of my favorites.

dillonbecker 2020-04-21 21:23

Cool stuff. The visuals are awesome, really helps set the mood.

svenerik 2020-04-21 21:25

Nice evading game, I liked it, though I wish there was more. It just got interesting for me in the end. Some additional levels perhaps would do it perfect good. Otherwise, enjoyable solid game!

pakmanlie 2020-04-21 21:25

The gameplay was fun but for most levels you could tank through the level without much consideration. make the sentries shooting each other a more prominent gimmick.

synystercola 2020-04-21 21:25

Like the idea and concept. The retro vibe is good too! I would have liked to have seen some more mechanics around the "enemy shooting themselves" idea. Otherwise, I had a lot of fun! Good job!

beavergames 2020-04-21 21:26

The visuals were good, I really like the artstyle which has a lot of bloom and has like glowing squares and things like that. Good game.

risist 2020-04-21 21:26

The last level was quite hard, at the end i managed to win. And i feel that it was just only by luck, like Ie haven't done anything worth the glory. This would be good point to polish. I would put more emphasise on killing other turrets. Overall it was quite enjoyable expirience.

zonvoi 2020-04-21 21:28

It's really hard and fun, i managed to get through all 10 levels!

somethang123 2020-04-21 21:30

I like the concept and it is a bit hard, but it's also a bullet hell game so that makes sense. I would like to see more skill involved like having the enemies blow each other up more or having to time your movements to dodge bullets instead of just running. Other than that, it was really good!

kc-shiftyyy 2020-04-21 21:41

While the game isn't the most creative and pretty hard, it's still fun. Graphics are good if not pretty basic (that effect is nice tho) and the sounds are neat (but definitely needs some music) and the player needs to be faster. Good job 👍🏿

haoro 2020-04-21 23:16

I like how the game looks like, but I think I had a bug (Windows) because my speed was really low, and seeing the other comments saying you can run trhough the levels well, it's totally impossible with the speed that was set x)

nemogg 2020-04-21 23:16

I loved the graphics and the nice polished concept! I think you can play around with the hitboxes to make it more tight. I felt the only way to progress was to tank through

iferit 2020-04-21 23:21

Nice Graphics! I think there is a problem with movement. I move too slowly to avoid the attacks, however... sometimes I randomly move faster. The game is impossible to get past level 2 unfortunately.

hruy-gashaw 2020-04-21 23:28

@haoro weird, we hadthe same problem while debuging and thought we fixed it. We will continue to look into it.

dummydojo 2020-04-21 23:59

Graphics were great. Gameplay was very minimal. For the most part, it felt like I just ran straight to the exit without regarding anything. Some instructions would be nice as well, its kind of unfair for you to assume the players can figure it out.

jake-marks 2020-04-22 04:36

Could have used more depth in terms of avoiding damage. Seemed like every level was just about only taking a few hits instead of too many instead of having a way to not get hit at all.

emperor-eagle 2020-04-22 05:36

I hope you two keep working on this game because it has potential! In its current state, its fun and has superb graphics (I gave it a 5/5 for that, I love the style, it really works)! Yes it could do with more difficulty and a skill based technique to avoid the bullets, but I definitely encourage you both to keep going!

banzi 2020-04-23 20:24

Fun little game. I would add there a bit more mechanics then just turrets .. maybe the level can also move somehow and be more dynamic? Anyway good job, I really liked the bloom.

kkrac 2020-04-24 16:46

I won! The mechanic of the NPCs killing each other was interesting. I think more levels could have been designed around that mechanic which could have been exploited more, but understandable with the time constraints. Good job.

hgcummings 2020-05-02 09:10

I really liked the CRT aesthetic and simple graphics. The gameplay was intense. I felt like I didn't have all that much control over how well I did. It was mostly just moving as fast as possible rather than puzzling out the timing and firing angles of the turrets, or routes to avoid them (most levels didn't offer much choice about which route to take). Also some of the later levels seemed a bit repetitive. The fundamental gameplay is really strong though; could be a great game with a bit more time to spend on level design.
