I received a 404 error however the graphics look fabulous according to the screenshots.

I'd love to try out your game but it's not showing up on itch.io

not-tomo 2021-04-27 03:02

@habibirb @1minatur Oh god, thank you so much for the heads up! The page has been fixed. Please give it a try if you can!

The graphics looks really good! The game is fun to play but I would give three lives to the player to make it just a bit easier.

Very fun, though is gets hard quite fast! The character is really really adorable!

The game is really, really small on a 4k monitor. It'd go a long way if you added a fullscreen option.

That said, I had fun with it! Good job.

Reading the description made me laugh in a great way. This has good art and fun sounds. Thank you.

Well done! This is a well executed bullet hell with a good head for progression. The aesthetic is a little unpolished, but entertaining and whimsical :) One critical comment- I'd recommend just having fire always on, or maybe toggleable, or have it cost something to shoot- having to hold down the attack button the whole time was a little awkward. Otherwise, a great entry :)

Really cute idea, solid game with brutal difficulty! I think the hitbox on the player is a bit bigger than I expect tho.

Super fun but its a bit hard, would definitely not mind an easy mode with 3 lives. The music is great and the loss screen is cute as heck

Really great game! The visuals and sound effects work well together, and the controls feel super comfortable. My one complaint is that it's just really hard! (can't say I'm the fastest gamer out there) I finally made it past the first wave that had the virus rockets and was immediately overwhelmed by the next wave. It would be cool if there was a teeny bit more wiggle room, with either some hull damage before death instead of always getting 1shot, or maybe by having the continue start you after the last completed wave instead of at the beginning each time. But still a very well-designed game, great job!

Awesome! I'm not great at these bullet hell games, but I enjoyed it! It played great and, even though it was pretty tough, I liked it a lot. Well done!

very fun, feels like a very classic bullet hell with a relevant twist - i feel like i'd like another button for shooting, because while i like being able to play with one hand, it doesn't always feel like the most comfortable setup

not-tomo 2021-04-27 04:03

@james-kusardi Thanks for the feedback, totally agree! A more comfortable button for WASD users would go a long way. We plan on releasing an extended version with more enemies and levels, and we'll be sure to add that in.

habibirb 2021-04-27 04:04

As many others have said, it is very fun, I found it quite difficult though still enjoyable. The art as I said was great and the audio was a nice surprise.

I uploaded our gameplay of your game on youtube, you can find it here: https://www.youtube.be/watch?v=KLwrzc7DkDo&t=2910s

Thanks for being part of the stream, yesterday was amazing! :smile:

Sorry we couldn't go far in the game, this was a bit too hard for us.

Great game and idea! I like your concept, game is very addictive but I have two points: there is no reason for the player to let go of the z, because why? and second boss is easier than the previous wave of opponents.

andrewkennedy 2021-05-02 00:27

Too real; I play games to escape everyday life!

It was a fun game! I'm not great at these kinds of games so I didn't get to the boss. I did watch the Youtube link @togis to get a bit more of the gameplay than I was able to reach.

Great job!

raphiell 2021-05-04 01:35

Fun! But it was more hitpoints or lives would be nice.

Well done!

Interesting concept. It was too tough for me to get very far though. Maybe consider a small life bar
