I'm not really sure about the mechanics, because it seems I could just rack up a score by continuously moving right and spamming the shoot button? I'm probably missing something? :P

Other than that, solid entry.

Developer

But then you probably just survive a few rounds and you get score by surviving a round to but you probably just have a really god (and broken) strategy :)

Very entertaining!

Developer

Im glad you liked it!

Creative idea for sure! It was fun, but frustrating sometimes when it spawned you right next to a past bullet. I think a better system would be if it spawned you at the same position as you ended the previous round, so that you could have an idea for where you start the next one and can even try to remember the previous positions of past rounds. But good job nonetheless!

Developer

That is a great idea! Thank you for the feedback!

I like the loop concept here (I actually did something similar). I had more fun playing it than I expected. It would've really added to it if there was the ability to jump

Thank's for the feedback! I'm glad you liked it!

Cool concept but mechanically not really sure what I'm doing. I managed to intersect my past self once to avoid the bullets but not sure how to replicate that.

Thank's for the feedback! You can shoot the ghost bullets whith normal bullets to block them. A lot of people missed that so i probably should have added some kind of tutorial in the game.

Interesting idea! I think I suck at it and I can't figure out how to not die. 

Developer(+1)

Thank you! The only whay to not die is to shoot the ghost bullets to block them or just run away if you can :)

Very cool game!

Developer

Thank You!

The concept is one of the best I've seen so far, but it's tough to dodge any of the bullets since they're a little too fast. It would have been great if there was like a jump so that you have a bit more room to dodge the bullets and push the risk with how many you fire. I thought about what if you could shoot a bullet at one of  the ones a ghost fires and they collide and save you from certain death too. Lots of room to make the game fun.

Very creative and has the potential to be very, very good. Great work.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! You actually can shoot the ghost bullets to block them! I wrote it in the description but some people missed it so i probably should have putt some kind of tutorial in the game.

I really loved the idea! Great job!

I think it could be cool if I had a jump ability with a cooldown or something like that, but I really enjoyed it like it is!

Good luck with the jam! :D

I get shot at the beginning of the round that spawn kills!

that is a cool concept one of the most original I have seen currently

Developer

Thank's! Sorry about the spawn kill problem, i know  it's REALY annoying  but i noticed it to late. Hope i didn't ruin a highscore.

Lol, getting hit in the back of the head by your own bullets is somehow the wackiest and coolest concept imaginable. Well done!

Developer

Thank you! :D

I loved how chaotic the game gets after round 2 if you do nothing but spam the gun like I did! very cool

Developer

Thank you! Maybe you should strategize a bit more ;)
