I actually really like this! It has an amusing atmosphere and mood in a weird sort of way.
As WhoaConstrictor said, more levels / obstacles and this would be a really fun little game.
Really great! Really polished all around, and I the laser was fun to get used to.
I like it a lot! (Actually my favorite so far, I'm a sucker for simple aesthetics)
I never really triggered the explosion though, most of the time I just collided with something by accident, which was a bit disappointing. Perhaps in a future build the player should just detonate when they hit something?
The feel of the controls and the aesthetics of the game are great though. Nice job!
This looks really cool! Local multiplayer games are the best. I plan on coming back to this later and rating it when I have a friend.
This game has changed the way I play this game. When I first played this game I slid to a stop and enjoyed this game to its fullest. I will be the same for never after this experience. Good work as always bluecorner.
Nice use of three.js. It was a bit tough to figure out how to control things, and I couldn't seem to keep the planet alive. Are the planets procedural?, if so that's pretty cool.
I like the noises! The mechanic itself is a bit tricky as it's tough to predict exactly where you're going to shoot, but not a bad experience overall.
I hate tower defense games, but thankfully this is a parody of one. Nice job!
Charming! I really liked the music, and the gameplay was fun. It felt nice to control, which is great given the strong potential for a feeling of disconnect with the gameplay.
Really cool! Fun to play, and a lot of polish given the time. Not sure how the theme applies (you only get one mask?), but eh, it was fun!
Cool visual style. It's super difficult if you try to stay near the center of the stage, but if you go up towards the upper right corner and camp it becomes incredibly easy.
Very nice visuals and style! The simplistic audio is quite charming and ominous as well.
The best strategy seems to be to just aim really directly at the wall forcing the bullet to bounce back and forth a lot. Cool game!
Fun little game in a Peggle-ish sort of way. Nice audio!
Fantastic! I think this is my favorite entry so far.
I loved the zooming out, and I thought it was really great how you naturally and slowly discover that the impact of those that you've touched is greater than anything you can do on your own anymore. As the scale zoomed out I became progressively more in thought over the implications of the game and what it was demonstrating.
I was actually disappointed with the reveal at the end. I feel the "reveal" is too explicit in its interpretation, and there is more to draw from the game by leaving it vague.
As a side note, it made me briefly think about space colonization.
A really neat experience! I enjoyed it thoroughly.
I feel as if the decision you have to make comes a bit quickly. I had only talked to each character about once before I had to make a decision.
The scenario though does allow an imagination to wander. It's interesting to think about, but I'm not sure I was deciding the choice the game thought I was.
Great little experience overall though!
I like the visual style and atmosphere. The snow particles are a nice touch.
The gameplay itself is a bit monotonous, but perhaps with refinement it could be enjoyable. I feel like the density of objects makes it tough to see ahead and to plan, which makes the game feel a bit frustrating at times, but of course we can't always have what is ideal given 48 hours!
Overall pretty great! A lot of clever mechanics here, and it is undoubtedly a one-button metroidvania. I did give up eventually, but I played for about 20-30 minutes first.
Nice job!

Thanks for the feedback. The enemies are a bit tricky, although initially they literally were aimbots, it was terrifying.
Guns should drop everytime if they are carrying a gun, but sometimes enemies pick up guns. There also might be a bug, it's not unlikely.
@ParaPup
Enter to reload was not intended, and that's a silly glitch.
Enter is mapped to the second player's gun, and when you're on a single player level I just move the second player far away. The thing is, in multiplayer firing a bullet gives the other play a bullet, and it still works when you're in single player apparently.
Nice style. It seems like it could go interesting places.
