Cool intro.
The controls are cool and the game is easy to pick up. Hard to master, but easy to pickup. This game could use some more balancing as to where the enemy shoot, spreading shots as the time goes by.
Great entry!

Great entry!
Great game dude ! Love the mood, the music fits perfectly with the actions in game. The 2D/3D effect on the player is really cool, the way to go for that kind of game to have polish graphics. Nice job !
nice
Pretty nice ! I like the fact that you're invincible, it's counterintuitive but fun to run into the bullets to protect the core
I liked that you are supposed to run into the bullets instead of dodging them, took me a little bit to figure out but I think it's clear enough what you're supposed to do.
Some powerups or repair kits or something would have been cool, give me a reason to move down the bottom half of the screen.
It looks like the rule in the jam is that you're allowed to use assets that you didn't create, as long as you have the legal right to use them and you opt out of the relevant category. As such, I didn't give you a score for audio.
That aside, I was really surprised by how well the invincible main character thing worked out. Catching the bullets is just as much fun as dodging them. There are so many possibilities that spring to mind. What if you could absorb the bullets to power up your gun? Maybe you could do something like Ikaruga where you have to switch your shield to catch different kinds of bullets? You've really tapped into something interesting here, and It'd be cool to see it expanded upon.
Not sure if it was my keyboard but at some point I couldn't move in the direction I wanted. As soon as the game started made me smile. Nice mood, nice set up, nice presentation. Definitely a great delivery and landing experience for your gamers coming in. Well done group!
I really like the invincibility aspect of this game. Very clever. Great work!
A solid top-down arcade shooter with a little invincibility shield twist. The music selection was nice, but you should have opted out of audio as you didn't actually make it.
