Wow that was fun until I managed to got on a path that I didn't see that was broken. I couldn't find a way to hit the iron wood thing that crashed me when I got 300 health but I escaped from that one to die misserabily in the pit of doom. Well made! The speed of the scrolling is good and the mistake I made could be avoided if I didn't rush things. Reminded me of some mobile games I played. Keep up the good work!

Really cool aesthetics. You really managed to nail that GameBoy feel.

Despite the theme this feels and works very similarly to those classic auto scroller space shooter games. The major addition is that now you also have to navigate through the level.

In some cases, I felt that I did not get enough information before I had to choose a path. Maybe that was greedness from my part and I player too far forward.

Overall, I really solid entry. Bonus points for the retro aesthetic!

This game has a good vibe to it. Felt pretty retro. Sometimes the movement appeared to be a tiny bit clunky. But that was no real issue. Good game and a nice entry.

Very nice! The gameplay is fun. I don't quite see how it fits the theme but it's a great game!

Well done on the art! The game perfectly nailed a classic retro game. Well done! I expect to see a GameBoy Color release ;)

I like how the art and sounds are really well done. Got to third (the one with side clubs) level and accidentally died by falling. Killing enemies seems to be too easy, or maybe it's only on beginning. I wonder if levels are procedurally generated :thinking:. Overall the game is really good!

Seems like something I'd have on my phone, really enjoyed it and loved the art style. Congratulations on the game!

A fun little space-shooter-type game. This has potential.

You've gotta put a link on your Itch page pointing to this page so we can vote on it! Itch also has Ludum Dare integration and can put a link at the top of the page for you.

@koboldskeep Thanks for letting me know! I updated the itch page with the link

love the overall look and feel of this game. i almost wish it was more difficult. the first time playing through it, i was originally thinking that a single hit would end my run, but then i started noticing a ton of health pickups. overall, a nice entry :)
