Game about how to become a gatling gun to kill spiders. Fun, but it lacks some kind of player's movement speed upgrade. And also sometimes you can stuck while walking near some walls

fun quick game. basically wandered straight into the boss so I played it twice. Much more fun with the upgrades. Congrats on the game!
I really liked the character sprites, very well done. Game was fun! I also liked the "reveal the dark" mechanic. Made the game a lot less spooky when I could snipe the grunts from outside their agro range :)
Nice game! it was crazy that at some point I had like a super mega machine gun of arrows because of the amount of potions I got. I was kinda immortal I think. You should think of layering the levels, like putting them appart and kind stream the player towards something. I loved the graphics also!! really nice!
Short and fun! My main complaint is that there is a small "tick" sound at the end of the attacking sound, once I noticed it I was unable to unhear it :D The sprites were really nice as well, good job on the game! :)
I like the design of the hero, the boss health bar is a little bugguy xD I like the gameplay, graphics are pretty cool. Well done !
Loved that you have a boss! There is very little waste in this product, good job
Collected all green upgrades, I expect Archer to have some joints pain tomorrow.

Pretty fun getting power ups and shooting faster. The game does not scale in difficulty as you get stronger so I find that it gets quite easy at the end, but the moving and shooting is very solid. I also really like the SFX and music.
loved the aesthetics and music.. its spooky dark and it made me feel the d&d vibe! i totally enjoyed playing! Great work Turegrappa :)
noice game !
Nicely done!! Beautiful art, gameplay is a bit simple yet effective. The boos pattern was a bit too predictable, making that if you kept circling around it and shooting it wouldn't do any damage to you, maybe add some randomness to it and make it so it can walk towards the player. Overall a great entry!! Congrats!
This was some quick and enjoyable fun. I tried to leave the boss room to get more collectibles to make sure I got everything before beating the game, but it was still enjoyable, I'm not sure if I was just clicking faster on the boss of if my fire rate went up, but I melted him haha.
Well executed and fun. Good job! =]
Thanks for participating in the jam!
I enjoyed your artwork. Animating an 8 direction would have been nice but obviously more work. Your character was cute.
Environment also looked good.
Didnt really understand the potions in the middle of the spikes. I also led an enemy onto the spikes to see if it would hurt them but it didnt which was sad.
Movement and mechanics felt solid.
Nice job!
simple and fun game! tight controls and overall felt very good to play. i just wish it was a little bit longer!
It's fun and beautifull, nice game !
Nice game! I killed the boss without any upgrades, it was really hard haha
Beautiful art, nice ambient, simple and straightforward gameplay. Nice upgrade system, but the boss looks extremely simple with all the potions collected, IMO regular mobs aggro radius should be a bit bigger, bc the lantern upgrade makes you invincible in some way.
Atmospheric game with decent gameplay, nice art and good immersion.
Very fun game! Loved shooting at those little spiders! Kind of disappointed about the boss who looked scary but did not move at all. Felt good to beat him easily though Nice job!
Fun, somple and nice. Simple controls. Liked the main character.
good game, but I think that in 3 days, you could do more levels but it's still a good game.
It was really fun, but it didn't really match the theme for me, if there were some more levels and the players ight kept getting dimmer the deeper you go, than it would be perfect! You did a great job on this!
I gazed upon the thing that is in the Deeper. And I gotta say. That boss needs to learn about the first-order intercept method or it will keep hitting nobody. Poor bastard.
Jokes aside, as simple as it is, I liked the little upgrades that were scattered across the level. It was fun hunting down all the spiders.
I kinda wish that, when the boss spawns, it would stay dark so that my hard work finding the light upgrades will actually pay off for the final battle. That'd be grand.
The core mechanic was pretty fun to play. Although the increased vision was helpful, I have to say it got decidedly less creepy to play over time as a result of it.
Very nice and polished. Good choice of music and neat animations too. Initially I thought I was fighting against dinosaur trumps and didn't realize they were spiders. Also managed to run three rounds around the empty map until I found the boss (which died very, very quickly since I had all the upgrades). :D
Movement speed could have been a bit higher, but this is true about my game as well so who am I to judge! Had a good time with this, great work!
Nice fun little game. If there's one thing I'd change, it'd be to either give the boss less health or give it some kind of phases or something.
It's a cute and nice little game. The boss and enemies could use some more mechanics as just circling made it super easy. Most damage I took was getting surprises when walking into stuff. The upgrades are also nice and adds reason to explore.
