Game was quite hard though. Couldn't ever get exploding bullets and every time I play there is only one blue gem (the healing one).\nJust needs some gameplay balancing and levels then its a pretty fun game.

Pretty cool though. You can just keep spamming click to keep bullets off of you though I think?\n\nI also could not figure out exploding bullets.\n\nOne other thing is that I think that camera should be closer to the character, because the character was very often near the edge of my screen","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"klianc09","author_uid":"1000829","time":"2019-05-01T19:29:08Z","epoch":1556738948,"modified":1556738948,"text":"Wonderfully weird.

Could be the base for a cool game I think. What you cold improve:\n\n* Reduce the red spawn points and spawn rate to a minimum and gradually introduce more.\n* Show an indicator to the next blue item.\n* I think the game would be more interesting with more ammo.\n* Add items to defend yourself? Shields? Temporary invincibility?\n\nA good start though!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"gonutz","author_uid":"1004280","time":"2019-05-04T12:25:10Z","epoch":1556972710,"modified":1556972710,"text":"Hey, my sound is not working. I listened to your background music anyway, by opening it separately, but it does not play for me in-game.\n\nYour game is very hard, my highscore is 3 :-)\n\nThe mechanics are easy to understand and the controls are intuitive if you have ever played a game before. I also like that you have a simple control scheme in the title screen. This made your game easy to play. Still I feel the difficulty is way too high. It stopped being fun for me pretty quickly, I think there could be multiple levels with a difficulty curve. I know that LD does not offer much time so I assume you had other things to do :-)","likes":1,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld44\/151148-cf5d73cdf26aa09137bccbe9081548a6.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/Rheel17\/LD44","text":"Source code"},{"url":"https:\/\/rheel.itch.io\/stargem","text":"Windows"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"40306","g_author":"1145970","g_event":"LD44","g_eventkey":"75","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"253960","g_title":"Stargem","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"16","g_site2_node_id":"151148","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0.73543"},"nds":{"n_key":"151148","n_urlkey":"253960","n_parent":"139254","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/44\/stargem","n_slug":"stargem","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"145970","n_created":"1556411677","n_modified":"1556928995","n_version":"471252","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":151148,"parent":139254,"superparent":9,"author":145970,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2019-04-29T01:49:49Z","created":"2019-04-28T00:34:37Z","modified":"2019-05-04T00:16:35Z","version":471252,"slug":"stargem","name":"Stargem","body":"Stargem is an action platformer where you get bullets by getting hit by other bullets.
