cute shooter with roguelike elements, it was nice to play, well done!

It's a really smart idea, and a really different take on the theme, even if it was a bit abstract within the game. For the collection levels, it was a bit too easy to run around and grab them all before getting hit, but the kill levels were fun when you got to use your many different weapons. Changing the world after every level was really interesting, but the notes were a bit confusing or overly technical. Instead, maybe instead of something like "player speed +10%" it could say something like "player speed increased (+10%)". It's a subtle change but for the text like enemy gravity +5% or glitch +7, it was hard to understand what the impact was. Also, when loading into a new level, the text stays up while enemies are moving, so it might be helpful to pause time while that text is up. Overall, a really cool and innovative idea, and a helluva lot of work for just a couple days. Well done!

A real nice game, the graphics could definitely be improved but i still had a fun experience. I feel like having 7 different weapons to choose from was a bit much, it might've been more interesting if you only kept the basic projectile and gave that modifiers. In any case, be sure to play & rate other games, it'd be a shame if this one didn't receive enough to place

Had a good time playing :smiley: Had a good degree of difficulty as it went further through the rounds. The checker background made the projectiles a little hard to see, but I soon adjusted to it and got stuck into the game. I liked the different enemy types and weapons you could have. Nice mix between objectives also, all round good play :slight_smile:

Hey, this was a fun way to make an unstable game. I like the modifiers. Some balancing and cleaner gameplay would make it a bit more playable. Now it was a bit chaotic and I had no problem playing with the glitches until the last level. I couldn't do anything anymore because I was invisible and took constant damage or something. If you worked on your graphics it would add a lot to the entries. Gameplay, ideas and sound are good. Work on the graphics and you'll get much better results for sure :) My biggest problem with this game was the floor texture. Small squares like that with high scrolling speed was pretty annoying. Other than that, good job!
