Cool mechanic! Would love to see this idea expanded upon.

Developer

Thank you!
I'll definitely try too expand on it

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

really creative idea, and gameplay is responsive and juicy. It's quite difficult to find spots where I could shoot to hit enemies from behind, and the bullets are a bit small. It's also hard to predict where the bullets come back from, especially with the low rate of fire (maybe a looping line of sight could help?)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing my game and thank you for the suggestion
I'll def take that into consideration to implement

Submitted(+1)

finally found another game that uses screen looping 🤝 very clever idea, way past my expectations

Developer

Thank you so much!
Glad you liked my idea :D

Loved The Gun Logic ( had to play 3 times to figure out LOL)

Developer

Thank you so much! (I'll make the tutorial better after dw T_T)

Submitted(+1)

Lovely little game. The character movement was a little janky around the walls and it took me a lot of time to figure out that the skeleton is NOT indeed invincible, but you have to hit him from behind in his head. 😆

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing my game!
I do need more work on the tutorial to explain the players that you gotta hit from behind so my bad for that T_T
I'll def try to improve the colliders cause I also did notice that on my playthroughs but I just didn't know how to fix it at that point

Submitted(+1)

This is such a cool idea and a super creative interpretation of the theme! Would love to see it get expanded upon, I think there's a lot of potential for interesting puzzles or mechanics here.

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it

Submitted(+1)

Wow, what an awesome submission and a good interpretation of the theme! I think it was harder to hit the enemies from behind rather than myself, but since the rest of the game (so far) is not very difficult, I can see this mechanic work in a full game :D Also of course some more polish with the sound effects, tutorial and enemy types / overall content would be nice, but this is perfect for a game jam!

Developer

Thank you so much!
I'm glad you enjoyed my game :D
I'll def polish it more once the game jam is over

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! Sometimes I got frustrated with shooting myself😅. But great use of the jam theme, with some potential by adding more enemy types!

Developer

Thank you for playing my game!
I'll definitely try to expand upon this game by adding more enemies and all

Submitted(+1)

Really nice idea! Huge potential here, I can totally see this being expanded into a frantic shooter where you dodge your own bullets, or maybe a puzzler just like figuring out how to open those doors. It was quite fun dealing more damage to myself than all enemies combined haha. Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! Im really glad you enjoyed it

I am definitely looking onto expanding this game😃

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

I am stuck. How am i supposed to cross that first gate.

Developer

So you got to go to the door, zoom in your camera by pressing 1 and then shoot downwards so the bullet loops and goes up and then it will destroy the door
Really sorry if the tutorial was unclear, I'll definitely fix that after the game jam

Submitted(+1)

I love these kind of RPG games its very unique and it actually represent the theme because of the bullets just looping around! The Artwork IS HORRIBLY AWESOME(A compliment). Love the game! Good luck

Developer

Thank you so much for playing my game! I'm glad you enjoyed
The artwork was public assets so you should check them out!
And good luck to you too!

Submitted(+1)

Haven't seen  a theme interpreted like this and I like it! I think think game has a lot of potential for some unique puzzles. Also I thought it was funny we used the same tile set XD

Developer

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it
And that is funny that we used the same tileset XD

Loved the concept! Dunno how I took so long to get that bullets warp around the screen lol, but it's super cool! I have issues with the enemies though, it seems they have a tone of health, don't they?

Anyway, keep up the good work!

Developer

HEY! Thank you so much for playing my game!!
The enemies don't have ton of health it's just that they cannot be damaged from the front
Some enemies have to be damaged from behind
Really sorry I couldn't integrate this into the tutorial I didn't have time
I put it in the description

Submitted(+1)

Awesome game! I really like the mechanic. I had a lot of fun! Definitely shot myself more than I would like to admit, but it was great

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!

Dw I designed the mechanic with the first thing in mind that you can shoot urself hehe

(I've also shot myself way too many times playing this game)

But I am glad you enjoyed!!

Submitted(+1)

I really like the art, and the concept is pretty cool! I was hoping to have a boss to beat but np it was still great without it. Well done!

Developer

Thank you so much for the feedback!
I didn't have time to add a boss or I definetly wouldve added one
Who knows maybe after the game jam I'll add one 👀

Submitted(+1)

Very cool! maybe after the jam you could add more levels? 

Also I loved the giant room, and just making a wall of bullets, very satisfying.

Developer

I will def add more levels! Thank you so much for playing and I'm glad you loved the giant room hehe

Submitted(+1)

Very interesting and creative idea! Maybe the enemies could have a shield infront of them to indicate if you need to hit them from behind. :)

Fun game overall, good job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I will def probably add a shield thank you for the suggestion
I just was short of time so I couldn't create any of my own art

Submitted(+1)

I like the idea a lot! I was confused at first how the bullets work because I was in fullscreen. I love how you're able to hit yourself.

Developer

Thank you! I'll def work on improving the tutorial and how to introduce this mechanic to players

Submitted(+1)

The number of times I walked in on my bullet or shot myself made me feel silly, but I loved the execution of the idea and the challenge/difficulty of the game. I would play more of it!

Developer(+1)

hehehe i designed the mechanic so that you can hit urself :D
but thank you so muchhh

Submitted(+1)

Nice little game! Love the pixel art and simplicity of the game style. A bit hard to understand the bullet looping/flying pattern XD, also got stuck in the right room at the very start, couldn't go back to the main room :( I would recommend having an audio management system (you can just use it later in every other project). And nice tutorial at the start of the game!

Developer

thank you for the feedback ill def improve the tutorial later on
and if u were still stuck u had to shoot downwards in order to escape
