Lily vs. the Swarm by Coda Highland 2020-04-24T16:47:07Z ♥ 1
There are a lot of times when I don't think I can avoid taking damage. Even on easy mode, the game is quite difficult. I would recommend having some kind of dodging mechanic or maybe make bombs more powerful because when I used them it didn't feel like they did much, or at least not as much as they needed to. Another thing I would add is perhaps some kind of way to clear bullets from the screen and push enemies back similar to blanks in Enter the Gungeon.
I also kinda wish the butterfly could shoot bullets as well. Maybe you could upgrade it to shoot or something, I dunno. Upgrades would be pretty cool, but as a developer, I know something like that can be hard to implement at this point.
Aside from all that, I really liked the art style and the music, and I thought the final boss was pretty dang cool. I think that with enough polish and elbow grease this could be something really special.

This is very fun. What a creative idea and twist on the theme. I appreciate that all the enemies have lights. Makes them a lot more noticable. Very nice job

Very cool game. I like the graphics and tone and everything, although I got easily discombobulated, but maybe that's just me. I played up to a point where I couldn't figure out where to go anymore. Anyway, very cool stuff!

This game is dope. I love the graphics and the way everything feels. It's very impressive that you managed to do all this in three days.
If I had to complain about something it's that I'm not quite sure how to deal with the archer enemies. Also I got to the room with the big grim reaper guy and all the bats, defeated him, and then I just kept getting the same room until I died. Not sure if that was intended.
I also wanna mention that I really enjoy the upgrades between rooms. Kinda reminds me of Rogue Legacy, which is a game I adore. Good stuff!

Super cute game. I love cats so I had to play it. Congrats on making your first completed game, you did great! Doing so for a game jam like this is even more impressive!
I loved the art style, but I think a little animation would have been good. Also the music didn't loop for me, but it was nice while it lasted.
I'm not sure what it means when my hearts turn blue. I thought it was the shield, but my hearts seemed to switch randomly between blue and red.
Overall, nice work :)
Whatever It takes by BurnerReborn 2021-04-27T18:19:57Z ♥ 1
Very cool idea. I love the mood of the game, and the central mechanic is an incredibly creative concept.
I do wish it was more clear which layer the platforms were on. Maybe some different colors or symbols or something.
Also I keep forgetting which buttons go back/forth and it feels kinda awkward (in my opinion) to hit the Q/E buttons. I would've maybe put them on the left side of the keyboard since my left hand was completely free while playing the game.
Another thing that I'm not quite sure how to put into words, but movement felt a little janky especially when moving between layers.

This is a cool concept for sure! I wasn't immediately sure how to play or what my goal was, but I figured it out. There were also a couple times where I spawned right in front of an asteroid and couldn't dodge it. Overall a very cool game, just a little rough around the edges. Keep up the good work!
In the darkness by RollCreators 2021-04-27T17:57:17Z ♥ 1
Super cool game! I've always wanted to make something like this. I like how you have to upgrade your submarine and how it gets darker as you travel further down. It feels very ominous. Nice work!
