How does your game fit the theme?
It is a short but difficult Shoot Em Up, that entices you to play multiple "loops", like in many old Shoot em ups.

11/10. Now I don't feel so bad for that old sewing tomato I used to have. (I like the art style! Like HD MSPaint/Pizza Tower)
Aha thank you so much
Too difficult for me. I guess I'm not very good at bullethells. Game played well and sound/artwork was fantastic.
Don't worry, you're not the only one : )
One of my partners and me are quite into bullet hell games, and we designed the levels : D
We already adjusted the difficulty post jam, so our other partner can enjoy it too, it was too difficult for her... ^^
But yeah, stages are usually the most difficult thing for me in game jams, because you spend so much time tweaking the mechanics, that the actual levels are usually added on the last day for me : p
Glad you enjoyed it to some extend though!
I'am not a fan of bullethells, but your game felt quite enjoyable to play. Also, tutorial is very cute. =)
The game felt insane in a good way! The only minor thing is that it would have been nice to see my score when broken.
Excellent job, really liked the vibe!
That technically is in the game, if you beat it (after about 5 mins you reach the end, with a score display ...^^;)
But yeah, we definitely should've added one to the game over screen too : D
Thank you for playing and liking it!
I never beat the game :( so it would be nice to see the score to see how much I progressed.
This whole game feels like a fever dream, you nailed the vibe!! Great job!
I LOVE the artstyle of your game!
What a charming game! Good response and this was a fun bullet hell. Solid art as well!
I loved the music and especially the sound before the menu appears. The movement felt very on point and the different enemy types well thought out. My score was 955. Was Touhou an inspiration for the game?
For sure, as well as other bullet hells. Parodius and Twin-bee kept coming to mind when I was making the sprites as I wanted it to give off that sort of, goofy, off the wall, and whimsical feeling that old-school arcade booths do. Thanks for playing it.
Glad to hear you liked it!
I grew up with Parodius and Gradius games, and also have been playing Touhou since pretty much 14 years, so it was definitely an inspiration!
The game has two stages in fact, and there even is an ending!
You'll reach it at around 2.500 points, so keep trying if you're interested ^^
I really like the art and sfx! This is a really good entry, nice job!
Love the art style and solid entry!
Really strange artstyle but work on me! loved the game!
art is amazing for game jam. I loved your game
This was fun. The music and sounds matched the artsytyle quite nicely. I got a score of 716, but then the whole screen was full and it got really difficult. :-D
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked it. There actually are two stages in the game along with an ending! You'll reach it at about 2.500 points ^^
good concept and artwork
The art is really cool and there is definitely some kind of retro vibe. I especially love the animation of the shouting heads. Great job! 💖
absolutely LOVE the art, the vibes are fantastic. gameplay is solid too!
Thanks a lot! Getting everything to work smoothly was quite the task and it definitely helped that my other two team mates provided art after art : )
Glad you enjoyed it!
The art is so cool.
nice fun bullet hell gameplay. really liked the art too.
Thank you, glad you like my art :D Have fun
Thanks! Hearing that the gameplay is actually fun feels like a big achievement for us : D
Really fun game! The artwork was beautiful!
Thank you for your kind words and that you like my art ;D
Amazing game. I love the fast based shooting and moving. Loved the art style and music so much. Good Luck and hope you the best
Thank you for liking my art !! :)
