VFX design is cool! The music is enough loud( Nice midcore game) You did great job)
Played on the web, and it seemed like most mouse clicks weren't registering to shoot? Really love the visuals and audio though!
Really great work, the level progression is great, the art style is iconic, the gameplay is satisfying. I think the only real complaint I have is that the transitions feel a bit awkward.
Really nice job with this one, it scores highly for me for mood! It has a real Thomas was alone feel to it with all of the cool transitions. I agree with others that for some reason my clicks didn't seem to register a lot of the time. The music is fantastic too by the way, really fits the feel of the game. Great job.
Nice game feel and juicyness!
I liked this game a lot! The sound effects and visuals are very compelling. The only qualm I had was that when I reached a new floor, I spawned on top of an enemy which automatically hurt me. But this game is super cool.
Good feeling and retro vibes ! The game is well packaged and works well. It gets quickly very hard tho, the bullet hell dimension is a bit too quickly too much in my opinion, but I still like it !
Great entry! I'm terrible at this kind of games but somehow enjoyed playing yours, altough it's impossible for me to beat! Well done :)
Very smooth gameplay! The audio and visual feedback felt really satisfying! Great work!
Nice job - very fun game. Loved the music.
Very cool game! Reminded me of Enter the Gungeon. Also thank you for your comment on my game, I have fixed the issue and it should be playable now. You saved my ass. Funny how our games have such similar names.
It felt good but I am just so bad at bullethell-games xD Tho, Sound and Graphics are nice. ^^
Really well done, appropriate music and sound effects, the aesthetic is simple and clean, but still animated, which put together is really cool.
The gameplay is really smooth and I think you nailed the frantic feeling of these kinds of shooters.
The only thing I found a bit annoying was that the in game music was louder, than the music between levels, but I don't know whether that was by the html version, in any case this is really minor at this point :) really good work!
Nice and enjoyable little bullet hell ! I don't really see the theme in your game (yeah, at the end of each level, there is a "depth X00", but that just another way to say "level X", there is no gameplay elements related to depth, as far as I know), but the controls were very good and the game in general was solid ! The difficulty scaling is very good. It starts calmly, but becomes more and more intense with each level, that's really well done !
Really fun. A lot of action great effects and great music. :v: I dont know was there a bug but when i got score 500 and killed all, the game dident do anything, i was just left in an empty room. I still enjoyed the game.
Oh the music was *really* good. Some of the initial spawns felts a little unfair (though I guess they never killed me, so maybe they weren't?), but on the whole it was a pretty fun little bullet hell game. There was a weird hitch in every level transition that made me wonder if I was supposed to do something before it continued, but that's pretty minor.
"Fast-paced bullet hell" You nailed it! Really enjoyed this ride.
Favorite ludum dare entry I loved the game a lot
5/5 :smile:
Great VFX, would love some insight on the art style of my game. Leveling system was balanced. For a short time frame, got a lot done. Great Job! Awesome Tutorial btw!
A nice type of shooter game. The graphics and the music was nice. I also really enjoyed the different effects you had when the enemies or obstacles were destroyed.
Feedback - Really liked the upgrades - Came to depth 500 I think
Really liked the graphic style, it was easy to distinguish the different enemy types and spot the incoming fire. Controls worked really well and were smooth/responsive! Nice job!
This game is really hard to beat! Got to 900
Hate the sound that happens when the depth ticks up, it's extremely annoying and way too loud, other then that it's pretty good
This game was very smooth and had a straightforward mechanic. It got way harder the deeper I went!
Great work! The graphics fit very well and doesn't make the screen look to messy. Also the music is pretty good! I would only suggest to somewhere show how much damage you deal while choosing the upgrade. The powerup +5 damage seems meaningless if you don't know whether you are currently dealing 10 damage or 100 damage. Anyway, the game was fun!
Love this kind of games! Art and music was pretty good. There could be various maps to play tho. Good job!
Wow I cannot believe this is your first game jam or ludum dare
@halogen first ludum dare! I've done a couple of game jams before, but none as good as this one!
Very satisfying game experience. Sound kinda loud for me :sweat_smile:
I found level 600 easier than previous ones, maybe it was a random situation but there was a blind spot where no enemy bullet was led to.
Good job!
The game feels quite complete. very good hitting feedback and control. I like it when you could take a break and upgrade stuff between levels, so the pace won't be too intensive all the time. BTW if you set the background to scroll up constantly within each level, it might get a clearer feeling about going deeper and deeper. And I think this game could grow to be sth like the 'Downwell' maybe, if you guys keep working:) Overall nicely done !
The gameplay was fun and the music really gave it a pumped up feel. The graphics were quite simple but nice although some of the enemies and the cores itself didn't have good contrast . With all the in between level animation and stuff it also felt quite polished. The theme is not super strong but it's there. The mechanics were quite standard but well implemented. Overall a very solid entry, I enjoyed plying it.
Very nice! I think you nailed the controls, physics and animations, it feels very satisfying and fun, even though it's such a simple game! The great visuals and audio tie it together nicely!
The initial tutorial level was perfect as an introduction. I felt like the difficulty increased quite fast -- I wouldn't have minded playing a couple more or longer levels. Also, I was always a bit stressed out right at the beginning of a level, because it's hard to predict where the player will spawn and there are immediately enemies all around. Maybe the enemies could appear a bit more slowly, over time? The upgrade mechanic is easy to understand and use and does a great job at breaking up the gameplay.
And I think I fell victim to a bug on my second attempt, when a new level started without spawning a player somehow, and I couldn't do anything anymore: 2021-05-15_16-06.png
Overall, really well done, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Congratulations on your first Ludum Dare! 🥳
@phi very sorry about that! I discovered an error with how I was caching my collectables (eg, the xp). I won't bore you with the details, but it should work now. Thank you for telling me about this, and for taking the time to play my game!
the game is realy cool, it very responsive and feel good to play, the increasing difficulty is cool and the upgrade system too, good luck!
Я очень надеюсь, что наш главный герой когда-нибудь сможет обрести покой и победить всех пиксельных монстров! Ну и разрушить все ядра.
Спасибо за игру ^_^
Enjoyed it. The gameplay itself was fun, the upgrade system could use a bit of work. I would enjoy it more if you got upgrades a few floors earlier, and slightly less often. It also felt too easy, I got hit maybe 3 or 4 times by reaching 800m. The mixing of the audio hurt my ears at times (some sounds were too loud/sharp). The gameplay was good though, and this is an all around pretty solid entry, no parts stood out as significantly bad and all parts of the game were decent or good. Well done!
