Kind of confusing to play, I wish there was some sign that showed me I was actually attacking. The boss looked pretty cool though, and had some decent AI.

Piano you can tell that you are attacking when the hearts go down, but I get your point to make it move obvious.

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on www.indiexpo.net ? It's like itch or gjolt.
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

nice idea, would need more work on graphism and sound but it's funny :)

Couldn't shoot even though left clicked, which defeated the hope purpose of the game for me. So I'll rate you on the things I can.

Otherwise - Great that you entered and I hope to see you for the next compo =)

@glaze_96 I guess I forgot to put that you have to be under it to shoot I did not know how to make it more real

The video really helped. At first i thought there was a bug because it wasnt clear what i needed to do. not too bad for another first timer, i definitely found the AI to be impressive.

Lol @masterkrepta the AI is simple it just goes back a forth and trys to hit you when you are under it. thanks if I have time i will try to play you game it looks cool.
